I must know about a ten people (some for almost a decade now) who
consider themselves or who I would consider as pretty hardcore
industrial enthusiasts, or who I know have a great deal of insight
into the so-called industrial scene. Not neccesarily industrial
purists, per se, just the type people who picked me up and dusted me
off at the last Ministry show I made it to - the one where Ogre took
the mike and dumped a bucket of blood on me and a tripping dozen;), or
what-his-name a couple of posts back giving dude what for behind lack
of knowledge - You know the type.
In any case, most of these guys (and gals) dislike rap a lot, and my
friends who listen to rap can't listen to any industrial music for
lack of exposure to anything else.
It seems though, that the remix of Snoop Doggy Dogg's (Skinny Black
Puppy?) 'Murder was the Case' is practically a cookie cut from Klaus
Larsen's (LeatherStrip) sequence/sound book. There are tons of
Hip-Hop references in SP's music (not just the stinking badges remix,
but the 'scratching' in Riverz End and some of the Hilt cuts). Also,
ahh, it seems that recently, rap artists have been applying some of
the techniques that we've been hearing from factory, wax trax, play it
again sam, et al. from way back. Most rap guys don't need vocal
processors to distort their vocals (see Busta Rhymes). You know where
I'm going with this.
Yeah I know. Consolidated, Disposable Heroes, etc. - but who's
really doing it right? I think there's something to this.
The reason this drives me up the wall is like I say, I listen to a
pretty staightforward mix of EBM and Hip-Hop, but no matter who stops
by, they gotta open their mouth at some point about what's playing -
the rap guys all think that Skinny Puppy opened for Led Zeppelin or
somebody, and the people in black cringe every time the word "nigger"
comes out of the mix (which is a lot, like 25 NPM on a Dre track) or
when a big fat (phat) funk riff winds its way through the mix.
What is the deal? Industrial is dead because it got absorbed into
everthing else as far as production values are concerned - I hear
people playing dice and arguing deep in the mix on Prince tracks these
days. I like triphop, but it's like candy, no message (you know, like
grunge is punk-politics) between the beats.
I'm wondering if there is some Rap/Industrial hybrid that I've missed.
And what do you think? Like Industrial and hate rap? Why? What
differences do you perceive? Be specific. Wait. Listen to Wu-Tang,
Mobb Deep and Biggy and then be specific.
>And what do you think? Like Industrial and hate rap? Why? What
>differences do you perceive?
the very first electronic music i listened to was rap. this was back in
the very early 80's, i was into all sorts of breakdance music and early
rap, like newkleus and the fat boys...i think herbie hancock's "rockit"
was my best musical memory of the time (anyone know what album that was
on?). er anyway i got sick of it at some point, got into contemporary
pop for a bit, then "goth" stuff like the cure, etc, then "industrial"
type stuff. for a long time i hated anything remotely rap-oriented. rap
these days seems so dull to me, a lot of it is just people rapping over
a beat or a dj, there's nothing there for me to listen to...i pretty
much dislike vocals in music anyway, and if there's nothing going on
behind the vocals then from my perspectve there's nothing to listen to.
but i do listen to some trip-hop/drum and bass/dub/etc. and some
hip-hop influenced stuff like scorn, these people i feel are taking the
cool elements of hip hop and making it interesting.
however, occasionally when i'm visiting someone who has mtv or someone
who listens to rap and i'll hear some newer rap that sounds pretty
decent, like there was a dr.dre track or something that had synths and
melodies and shit, and vocoded backing vox...and there was this song i
heard on the radio with a distorted 808 beat and some psycho hispanic
rapper girl that seemed pretty fucked up. some public enemy stuff i can
also listen to without cringing...
and the other person i know who listens to industrial is also into
cypress hill and dreck like that...
so there you go.

isn't the guy from Mantronix the same guy who remixed Puppy's Stairs

anyway, i still think Mantronix was pretty far ahead of his time as
far as modern electronic music goes. he had some great effects and
techniques for manipulating his music. he would do "Megamixes" at the
end of the album where he would cut-up and splice material from all of
the songs at rearrange them again in some really interesting ways.

Not "value," "sonic qualities." TNI happens to be a pretty well
mastered CD, whatever you may think of FLA. I have
an engineer buddy who uses it to get himself a
baseline whenever he's in a new studio- it's a
reasonably demanding disk of audio systems (got all
sorts of stuff from 20-20K at all sorts of levels)
and he thinks it sounds cool. From an engineering
standpoint only, TNI is pretty good.

erm... thing is, from a whitebread standpoint, most puppy albums
are _not_ mastered very well, especially when everybody else was bringing
in "yes" albums and such... They didn't spend enough cash, and SP has a
tendency (cool or annoying, depending on your tastes; I'm a diehard SP
fan) to leave aliasing and artifacts in for the effect. Bottom line: If
I turned in Mind: TPI for a final project, I wouldn't pass the class
("there's too much reverb on the chainsaw back there, and the vocals are
unclear. you've also got too much feedback on the drum delay. Try again
with less effects, and see if you can get the band in to do some
overdubs- most of this material is shit!" ;-) )

Now, now. Rap started out underground and has since caught on.
Industrial has been underground forever (MM and GK fans can just go away
right now, we don't wanna hear it) and seems to be perpetually on the
brink of breaking, but never quite does. The instruments used in both
genres are very similar- Drums are usually sampled, vocal processing
isn't uncommon, both genres (over)use samplers. Neither rap artists nor
industrial vocalists are known for their melodic crooning, more generally
for angry utterances. I think there's a few more similarities than you
have found.

Point taken-the metaphor only extends so far sonically. On the third
hand, though, I have always sort of considered 'industrial' in
ecxtremely large part to be a belated reporting on the ethics and
techniques employed by anglos as reported by anglos - This is why we
hate new bands, they've wasted the forum, pissing on our intellectual
round table without even mentioning Hitler or polyester. If I can get
the black guy to quit ClockDVA, this argument will grow some legs.
Now, take a breath - rap has always considered itself to be the 'Black
CNN'. Ever see a PE video? I left rap for industrial back in the wee
eighties, 'cause' people were talking about their shoes instead of
some "real black shit". The guilty views that industrial takes of
genocide and oppression is almost exactly the flip of the Hiphop take
on homicide and being oppressed - I know that a lot of rap seems to
glorify the 'gangsta' lifestyle, but some of the brothers are trying
to figure out what to make of LeatherStrip and assume that I also like
'Satanic Nazi' music.
I don't expect to be able to spin X-Marks the Pedwalk for X-Clan crew
anytime soon, but I can't help being fascinated at the deep
similarities and the reaction of other people to similar stimuli.
As a final similarity, the 'underground' similarites do still apply.
Here in New York, you can buy tapes on the street of hundreds of
different rap bands, none of whom you'll hear on the radio - some
people consider this to be the 'true' underground of rap - like if
it's on a CD, it's commercial - some industrial fanatics have opinions
that are just as arbitrary..............
It was almost a decent reposte, until you used LB's "Cloned" as a sig. Come to think of
it, you were two samples short of a decent song during your entire rebuttal. First off, the
"melody" that appears in "industrial" music is generally delivered in the form of a
sequencer fill rather than from the mouth of an over-distorted Ogre emulator. In rap, the
same is also true...just listen to those melodic grooves in Dre's material.
Second point: while plenty of "industrial" exceeds 100 bpms, there's an equal abundance
that doesn't. I guess Morpheus is laughing now. Third point: rap musicians might rely
more on stolen grooves, but it is comparable in lack of innovation to the generic drum
machine beats pumped out by any of the Zoth Ommog clan. I think when you stated that
"people are getting stupider", it was a reference to either: (a) a guy who creates a word
like "stupider" or (b) a guy who shells out big bucks for the import version of Lassigue
Bendthaus' Cloned CD which features about nine different versions of the same song,
using most , if not all, the same sounds for each one.
Rap and "industrial" might not be twins on the surface, but intelligent deconstruction will
reveal ample similarities.

The rest of the post has been dealt with quite well by the other
people on the thread, so I'll just stick to this point.
Sorority fluff is _not_ cuter than chicks who actually dig SP. You
just can't generalize to whole groups of people like that. There are
some good looking sorority women and industrialites, it just depends
on which mindset you find yourself attracted to. There are some
amazingly good looking women at the capitol ballroom for example.

What the fuck are you talking about? For one thing Industrial actually
has ::GASP:: melody(yes, there is more to life than a looped drum beat)
present it in. It also has been known to ::GASP:: exceed 100bpm(Hold onto
the seat kiddies). Additionally, it is actually written by the artist
involved while what little music is actually present in rap consists
entirely of loops right off of a sampler disc and is constructed by the
producer not the rapper, as the latter is too stupid to turn a sampler a
on.

If there were no melody, En Vogue would be nowhere. I didn't say
_good_ melody, I said melody. The genres are physically the same

Druid, every time you open your mouth you make a bigger ass out of
yourself. Your critique of rap aisde from not being relevant (I believe
the poster was making the parallel between the fact that neither genre
gets much radio support - we're talking REAL rap, not MTV rap - and yet
has a strong base of support), isn't even accurate. Yes, a lot of rap
bands just loop samples, but guess what, so do a lot of electro bands.
And, a good number of rap artists intigrate live musicians into their mix
as well. I'm sure I'm not the only one here who is tired of your elitest
whining, so fer christ sakes, keep your shirt on...

My problem is that while before 1990, rap seemed to be diversifying (to
give an idea, PE's Nation of Millions, EpMD's Strickly Buisness, De La
Soul's 3 Ft High, Erick B + Rakim's Follow The Leader, BDP's Necessary and
Ice T's Power all came out in a little over a one year span and were all
increadibly unique. But by 1991 it seemed like everyone first became a
clone of EpMD, then of NWA, etc. etc. The Individuality seemed sucked
from the scene, and knowledge rap seems to this day nearly impossible to
find. Industrial appeals to me for similar reasons to why I loved rap,
but that trend of homoginization has slowly been appearing here too. How
many morons post shit about wanting to get the right keyboard to sound
like FLA. FLA (as well as the other ten or so projects everyone seems to
try to imitate) already exists, and imitators will only become trivial.
Why try to "fit" a catagory. The best industrial artists strive not to
fit.
OK (as I realize I'm on a big tangent that almost makes a Genesis
P-Orridge speach seem like it will have a conclusion (no insult
intended)). Before Front 242 or Skinny Puppy were using heavy beat driven
music, rap made the sound. The inovation of minimally using effects,
samples and performance art are as much a part of the root of rap as it is
the spirit of industrial (minimal not being constant in either). The
early Wax Trax sound early house music and old school Hip Hop were almost
without differentiation (and race had little or nothing to do with that
differentiation - even classical music has african roots, and even Bill
from interzone was scratching records decades before Bambatta so there's
little point exploring that argument right now).
Industrial has roots in every genera of music from classical to punk to
rap to new age to musique concreate. If you love the electronic dance
side, the use of sampled sound, pounding rhythms, anthems, non-melodic and
distorted vocas, rap is the root that you probably taste the most. The
root of techno, house, jungle, ebm, etc. No I'm not saying T.G. or
Kraftwerk were influenced by rap then, but now Coil vs. ElPh are using
samples of NWA Strait Outta Compton, FLA samples Eric B & Rakim to death
and Kraftwerk has remixed their matterial and are damn glad that Bambatta
shined a spotlight on them in the early days of rap music.
Now ignore everything I've said and make up your own mind. My point is to
eliminate homoginization - the killer of both generas.

I'm sitting here listening to one of my own mix tapes - I'll give a
sampling in a second, but lemme make my point -
Biggy Small's "One More Chance (puff-daddy remix)" just ended - you
know that track, everybody's using it these days (less a 'stolen'
melody, more of a scene in which some people simply produce backing
tracks and make them available to rappers and djs) with Mary J. Blige
singing on it. Now this track is nothing if not melodic, as evidenced
by the fact that the other artists I hear using this track are by and
large (sorry high) r&b types - that audience demands a 'melody'.
Now what's playing? I tend to go almost one industrial (or whatever)
track for every rap track, since I've been having a rap attack lately,
so I should expect to hear a really "melodic" type industrial track
next, right?
Well. It's, ah, Muslimgauze (live excerpt from Arrhythmia). Yah.
This guy shot and buried melody before he got to the studio on this
track - 'cause there ain't a bit. None. As Jesse Jackson would say:

You are critical of rap bands because they sample other bands and build
their songs on loops of other peoples work with little else. This is
ironic since you seem to idolize Bill Leeb who has done some of the most
OBVIOUS sampling of other bands (and even does the BIG no-no of sampling
bands within the same genre) I have ever heard. Aside from the pop
rappers, I sure can't identify where most of the rap stuff is sampled, and
at least most of it is from a different kind of music (jazz, old rock,
etc.)
Also, you critique rap because it 'never goes above 100 BPM'. I'm not
sure what that has to do with anything in terms of what is valid and what
isn't, but old school and Miami style rap is routinely quite fast. (Not
to mention that a lot of artists in both styles happen to love Kraftwerk
samples which gives them yet another common link to industrial...)

Now, I _never_ would've thought I'd see this on RMI. BTW, if NWA were an
industrial band, it would stand for Niggers With Angst.

I couldn't agree more, and I'm very thankful for it. I don't listen to
much rap anymore, it's become more over run with ripoffs than industrial
ever has. Industrial is finally underground again. Ministry made sure
of that. But the fact remains that industrial definitely has it's feet
wet in rap, whether it knows it or not.
Maybe 50% of it. I personally am trying to inject industrial with
melody through
the music I write, but give me a fucking break, most of it is just a
bunch of
musical amateurs who don't know what they're doing. That is actually
something
to be prized! When you don't know what you're doing, maybe you'll
actually come
up with something original! But the majority of industrial music is
based on
imitation and repitition. Such is life.
> > It also has been known to ::GASP:: exceed 100bpm (Hold onto
> > the seat kiddies).
So by your definition, if we sped rap up and hummed a tune to it, it
would
be industrial? Think about the structure behind it. Or maybe you've
never
programmed a song before? Or maybe you haven't been programming long
enough?

(BIG assumption)
Well, that was a nice voice of your own opinion, but you're making a lot
of
assumptions, and in my original post, I was talking about how a certain
producer
did industrial and rap and comparing it to the structures of both, so
get it
right next time.

skinny puppy. . .or maybe haujobb and the fugees. . .how about snoop dog

form of music, wheras industrial is a very textured and thick type of
music. . .diametrically oposed. . .rap has been incorporated into the
industrial scene (this has been argued elsewhere on this thread) but, by

rap is not an underground form of music. . .it's readily available. .

.it's easy to find (local malls, chain stores etc.) whereas industrial is
very hard to come by. . .no sections in major stores. . .malls. . .the

nothing. . .and, erm. . .american. . .capitol. . .after that. . .s.o.t,
baby.
while mostly i agree with you, i'd like to point out that bands like
t.g. predated and probably influenced rap, as opposed to the other way
around. and while i know puppy and 242 were influenced by rap, i think
they were more interested in that cab voltaire/tg sort of sound.

Not if you are looking at it from an "Industrial" perspective. Classical
music although possessing incredibly complicated high ends suffers from
several weakness in my opinion(an opinion that is definitely from the
"Industrial" side of things i.e. my ideal music tends toward that which is
consistent with the principles found in Industry). For one thing, Baroque
Classical has a very weak low end: almost no percussion or bass lines.
As I am interested in dance music to some degree, I consider this a
"failing" of Classical. Additionally, it was common place in Classical to
substitute games in musical theory for actual innovation. That is, it was
not uncommon for composer xxxx to "do something different" simply by
composing in a whacked meter or scale. Perhaps there is something to
statement that too many piano lesson inhibits your creativity...

Okay, enough of you. He didn't say a word about color. He said
rappers are stupid. This includes my idol Vanilla Ice. Yes, I
believe Vanilla Ice is too stupid to turn on a sampler. Moreover, he
is not my brother. My brother's name is Steve, and he lives in
Massachusetts. I take full responsibility for this statement.

I never said using sampling loops isn't a good idea. Hell, sample the
world! Just make sure you do it well and actually write additional music
to it. That is the difference between plagiarism and sampling.

Could you elaborate here? Are you complaining about the lack of
innovation in 1/3 snare patterns, techno beats, or both? You must
understand that dance percussion usually works much better when it is
minimalistic.
I think when you stated that

who creates a word

I'm not sure what dictionary you are using, but "stupider" seems to be

I would love to explain the entire purpose of _Cloned_ to you but I don't
think the yield would be worth the time investment. Suffice to say, you
are of no practicle use if you do not appreciate Lassigue Bendthaus.

One thing that I think we will all agree on (even you aren't stupid
enough to refute this, Druid, you fuck) is that a very basic tenet of
industrial music/culture is to fuck with interplay between the
'product' and the 'market' - Skinny Puppy put us in their show, and
many bands played little side games with the industry itself, same
guys, different label, different name (Greater Than One and
Jourgenson, et al., are great examples of this, as were the Puppy
clan) just to get around the "music industry" and it's 'norms'. Since
the sound itself is so at focus in industrial music, there are very
few 'stars', the concept in itself being highly distasteful to fans
and bands alike. We take these things for granted as industrial fans,
but don't forget these are literally 'guerilla-marketing' techniques
that would raise eyebrows in the mainstream community. (Crosby,
Stills, Nash & Young notwithstanding)
The point? For those who don't know, a little history is neccesary:
New Edition (Bubblegum Pop) came out as the 80's version of the
Jackson and had some hits. As the crew grew up, some started solo
careers (Bobby Brown, Ralph Tresvant, Bobby Gill) while the rest
formed another group (Bel Biv Devoe). They all got back together this
year to 'put New edition back on the map'. In a recent interview
(Vibe Magazine) Mike Bivens says something like:
Vibe: 'So is the new New Edition video gonna be out soon?'
Mike Bivens: 'Yeah, but why just drop one? Since people perceive this
triumirvate already, why not drop three or four? If you saw a Bobby
Brown video on Monday, a New Edition video on Tuesday, and a Bel Biv
Devoe video on Wednesday, when the Johnny Gill shit came up on
Thursday, you would be thinking 'What the fuck are they doing?'
Boom - gotcha.'
Whether you believe in selling albums or not, this is just another
example of guerilla marketing - pretty deep for a bunch of niggers who
are to stupid to do anything but make millions of dollars year after
year producing not only their own albums, but creating new groups and
producing their work as well (Boys II Men, Another Bad Creation, etc.)
You know Druid, the more you say, the better I look. Are you trying
to make yourself look stupid or dumb? I know you've got your little
bitty industrial attitude - I bet you were the first guy to but NIN's
latest album in the free world, and I bow to your vast knowledge of
all things industrial, you god, but you might want to actually _use_ a
drum machine, or try to _record_ something or even _program_ a
keyboard. Hell, go mike a go-kart spinning out , flipping and rolling
and then maybe you can tell me something about studios, idiot.
Playing metallica riffs on top of loops doesn't count for shit,
>I was talking about the music. They sing with melody but what little
>music is actually present in their jingles contains no melody at all.
mmmm, subjective. I think "melody" is one of those things that
we could really get into for no particular reason: "is gravity kills
melodic? How 'bout White Zombie? What does 311 mean?" Enough, enough...

>Dance music below 100bpm is a ridiculous concept. That's my point.
heh. Name me a 100.01 or greater BPM waltz, and I'll agree with you.
You can't really slowdance to EBM, ya know? and if there's no slow dancing,
you might as well be _line_ dancing...
>Wow, I guess if I sold a zillion records, and knew nothing about gear, I'd
>waste a shitload of money on half a dozen workstations too.
I know I would...;-) Now be fair. Them homies have produced
more albums than their own. Simply because you (or I) don't like their
music doesn't make them incompetent.
>I never said using sampling loops isn't a good idea. Hell, sample the

And that, sir, is another fine line that I don't really want to
map out.
<(*)>sloth<(*)>
>Dance music below 100bpm is a ridiculous concept. That's my point.
not really. it depends on how much swing that is present in the beat.
but being that you only relate to one type of music, then i can
understand how you wouldn't grasp this simple concept.
hell, at least your idol Lassigue grasps this idea. if you don't think
so, then check out some of Uwe's other more recent projects.

==================================================================
Hey... a cool thread for once! -- not counting the capslocked trolls.
I must admit if it weren't for Meat Beat's "Storm The Studio",
I wouldn't have gotten into Public Enemy or De La Soul or
Schooly D or even the UMCs.
[I'm entering top-of-the-head shovelling-it journalist mode right now.
You've been warned. ;)]
As was mentioned, many industrial groups (Meat Beat, older Penal
Colony, etc.) had openly embraced hip-hop, but not as much vice versa
as claimed.
Whereas part of industrial's mission (ok, I'm slightly out of my
bounds here) is sound experimentation, that's not necessarily the
case with hip-hop. Hip-hop never claimed to be a forum of
"sound experimentation" but more a search for certain "grooves"
and "jams". (Sorry for the quote ODs)... and with N.W.A. came the
whole "gangsta" theme.. and De La Soul's peace vibe. There's more
defined lyrical contexts with hip-hop than industrial, while at the
same time there's seemingly more embracing of other kinds of music
with the industrial moniker than hip-hop.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that hip-hop's mission, whatever that
is, is not the same as industrial's mission, whatever the hell *that*
is -- although they may use the same tools and techniques to further
each's exploration. And mutants like Meat Beat or Tackhead (see
below) will exist and blow minds.
Sure, the kickoff track on Public Enemy's "Apocalypse Strikes Black"
sounds very similar to Meat Beat Manifesto -- "Storm the Studio"
era... or vice versa. OK, so more Meat Beat fans became P.E. fans
and not so much the opposite. I don't think that means hip-hop
fans are not as open-minded.... It's just that fans of each appreciate
different things about their favorite genre.... and really fucked up
rhythm loops is something that's more appreciated in industrial than
hip-hop. Plus we're just talking about the fans here... I'm sure
Hank Shocklee has been well aware of revelations in hip-hop and
mutants thereof for quite a while... Hip-hop producers aren't given
as much credit as they sometimes deserve.
Don't forget that some of the roots of hip-hop have actually had
roots in industrial as well. Namely, Tackhead. Adrian Sherwood,
Keith LeBlanc, Doug Wimbish, Skip McDonald, and that whole bunch
have worked with everyone from Afrika Bambataa to Mick Jagger
(on that really embarrassing "Strange Things" album admittedly)
to Uncle Al to Depeche Mode.
To me, the whole unity between hip-hop and industrial comes with
the legalities of sampling. If a hip-hop act were to win a sampling
case against a complaining source artists, that would cause revelations
in both hip-hop and industrial worlds. Of course, hip-hop is far
more popular than industrial, so hip-hop would be better off carrying
that torch. (Admittedly, this is all stuff that Mark Hosler of
Negativland had discussed in an interview a year ago)
I guess that's enough from me already... but the whole hip-hop/noise/
industrial hybrid sound has always been a fetish of mine, and I wished
there were more groups trying more bizarre fucked angles on that
whole tip. Hip-hop has been pretty stagnant for me the past three or
so years. Someone please come up with 5/4 or 7/4 hip-hop or
*something*!
That's not true. I think the problem with this statement is that you're
likely comparing the start of throbbing gristle career with the
beginning of
rap music on the radio which isn't realistic. Rap music owes it's
heritage to
reggae, not industrial. If you really think about it, the concept of
intercity
youth getting musical ideals from a newborn british underground scene in
the mid-70's
is pretty far-fetched. In fact, it would appear that both movements
occured simutaneously
spawned by the electronic technology that was starting to be available
at the time.
and while i know puppy and 242 were influenced by rap, i think
> they were more interested in that cab voltaire/tg sort of sound.
This I would agree on especially when you listen to some of the early
SP.

If we did, then you'd be able to constructively analyze hip hop. Believe it or not,
but hip hop surfaced long before Operation Beatbox.

Bravo! You illustrated my point while simultaneously disproving your own, i.e.
both genres are known for having an over abundant amount of composers
relying on minimalistic beats, most of which come straight off the same drum machines.
In other words, hip hop and industrial are not as far removed as your initial post
attempted to perpetrate.

Random House and Webster disagree, but since you have the tattoo on your forehead,
I'll concede.

Damn, I was hoping for an intelligent diseration on the genius behind LB. Although LB
illustrated some innovative concepts on Cloned, they made the error of delivering them in
the form of boring bleeps and blips. At least Meat Beat Manifesto recycled their sound in
an enjoyable fashion.
Maybe you should kindly step aside and go take part in the KMFDM definition thread.
You're bound to find others who share your wisdom.

damnit damnit sunovabeaotch! last time i say this. . .industrial is about
sound. . .layering sound. . .doing things with sound. . .interest with
sound. . .rap isn't about sound. . .it's about innercity, grooves. . .etc.
if we were to use your brand of logic we'd find that death metal and
country music aren't far removed at all. . .scary. . .get a grip. .
.genres aren't defined by what instruments they employ. . .but what they
go after. . .what they seek to achieve. . .rap wishes to deliver a
message, industrial is about sound. . .you couldn't get much farther
apart.
what mbm, fla. . .etc sample, listen to whatever doesn't matter. . .the
theme of the genres matter. the genesis of the genres matter. . .if you
really would like to trace each genre back to it's vanishing point on the
horizon of music you'll find that rap comes from regae and industrial (in
it's earliest, pre-tg form) can be found in the works of john cage. . .you
couldn't get much different than that.

unfortunately you left out the juicy parts. . .careers began to dry up. .

just a quick corection. . .a lot of bands perfer samplers over drum

but at any rate. . .i don't see how this pertains to the thread.

forgive me for sounding stupid, but i just can't help it.
there is good rap - coolio, mary j. blige
there is good industrial - f242, FLA
there is bad rap - dr. dre, snoop dogg shit
there is bad industrial - nitzerebb, drown
regardless of what genre you prefer, your music still either sucks or
doesn't - see?
BTW, rap & industrial -> funk and disco -> rock -> blues -> jazz ->
ragtime -> blah blah blah classical.
-dystopic
end of line.

i know. . .i didn't think i implied that in my statement. . .the thesis
was that industrial and rap share the same breeding. . .that they are
essentially blood because they both sample. . .they both use beats etc. .
.my theory was that they are in no way the same (despite using the same
instruments) because their origins are different and what they seek to
achieve is different. . .that the genre is defined by what it goes after,
as opposed to what it uses (which most of the posts to this thread have
seemed to imply.)

really? i thought it was about slamming druid. . .at least that's what
it's turned into. . .group fucking is not a part of deconstructing two
genres, which, to me, seem as far apart from each other as can be. . .
though you can always argue that they both sample. . .use drum machines.
but you can niether argue that they come from the same place. . .that the
siminal bands in each genre accomplished the same things.

I hadn't heard of them until now. As for being new here, you're
right: I haven't been on RMI since around 1990 - where were you then?
Oh yeah, I know where you were at - you were hearing NIN for the first
time over at Druids place. I'm the guy who was sick of NIN before
pretty hate machine came out, so how new do you think I am, fool?
Get me straight - I used to be the industrial purist asshole that I
mention in my original post. If you would get over your clingy
selfhelpthroughbetterracism socialschism for a moment (Boris Mikulic
gets props) you'd pick up the fact that nobody here is trying to say
that rap and industrial are the same thing. We're just trying to
intelligently deconstruct two similar genres - why and how are they
similar/dissimilar. It's academic. This is in itself is a very
typically 'industrial' behavior - the tendency to analyze and break
down ideas to basic elements, discarding 'myths' and 'religious
beliefs' in favor of 'hard evidence'.
I really get the idea that you and your buddy Druid hang out together
and try to make out like you guys are the ultimate industrialists.

Have to disagree here. First off, I don't even consider drown industrial
or metal or whatever. They're in a genre-less league of their own.
Second, I was under the impression that nitzer ebb influenced a bunch of
people, so they really can't be that bad, can they? :) I know there's no
reasoning behind this, but hey - it's my opinion anyway ...

Well anybody can pick two bands that seem to have nothing common.
Even within the same genre. Step away from your stereo for a moment,
and re-read my original post - as for tg and grandmaster flash,
remember that in 1978-79 'scratching' was just as 'harsh' to the older
r&b-buying black public as 66sect6 was to my stoner roomate ('is it
supposed to sound like that?') in 1986.
Grandmaster Flash threw the street into the mix, discussing drugs,
crimes, racism and injustice (ok you purists, I know that Melle Mel
did vocals). I wonder how close that first album sounded to the very
street that they were hanging out on before they produced it.
VIVIsectVI covers some of the same ground (drug addiction) from a
different perspective, and it also showcases some fairly radical (for
those days) studio techniques (like using a turntable as an
instrument).
Now, I don't really like GP, but he claims that when tg finished their
first album, he didn't know if it was success or failure, because it
mirrored the sounds that he was hearing on the street in his daily
life.
By the way, thanx for the mix idea -
Grandmaster Flash - ' White Lines'
Skinny Puppy - 'Harsh Stone White'
Finally, I state again that I don't consider the two genres the same.
You want to find more similarities, compare rap and punk, or
industrial and real life. I pick on people like you and Druid,
because that bullshit holier-than-thou attitude didn't look good in
the mid-eighties and it's dead and stinking in the late nineties.
Sorry NIN fans for the anti-NIN sentiments (I didn't mean to hurt your
feelings, downfall) but that guy got on my last nerve in 1989.
Wow! I made the triumverate! Who woulda thunk it?

Buddy, let me let you in on a little secret. You see, you are #31. That
is, you are the 31st asshole who has seen it fit to one day pop out of the
wood work and begin insult/psychoanalysing me as if we've known each
others our whole lifes, in some desperate attempt to justify your pitiful
opinions. Honestly, how long have you been on RMI? What one, two weeks?
A month if your lucky? Do you really think you're ready for this?
Why don't you just capitulate now before you have invested serious amounts
of time and effort into this little attempted coupe of yours? The hard
and steady fact of the matter is that I will be here instructing people on
the subject of Electro-Industrial music long after you are gone. Every
month or so, a new hot shot such as yourself who thinks they know what I'm
about pops up, but in the end, I always prevail. You simply can not hide
from the truth, and that is exactly what I'm about.
Just look at this inane argument of yours attempting to link Negroid dance
music with European electronic music. It's cute and all, and I hope for
your sake you've managed to use it successfully to justify your puerile,
undeveloped tastes in music, but no one of any intelligence is going to
buy it. It is, in fact, so insipid that I have consciously imposed a
limit on the amount of energy am I allowed to expend indulging your
fifteen minutes of fame.

looking over my original post (it was pretty painful to do so) i left that
vital point out. . .however. . .it must be noted that pop, by nature, is
much more concearned with music, structure and melody, whereas industrial,
imho, shouldn't be concearned with that, but if it happens, in the course
of creating pieces of sound, that's fine.

cage. . .imho. . .is pre-industrial. . . he is neither associated
with the industrial revolution or the industrial records label. . .but
to over look his work would be most unfortunate. he's one of the earliest
guys i can think of that was working with sound in interesting ways. . .he
was fascinated with noise. . .and silence. . .he was very industrial. .
of course, this is just mho and your milage may vary.
Ur, Tackhead anyone?
(Wondering if my big post in this thread actually made it through)
Yes, the recent stuff is sulfurous, but you can't deny some of the
stuff of '86 and '87... Probably the only group to contain an
influential producer of "industrial" (Adrian Sherwood) and close
ties to the Sugarhill gang, one of the originators of rap/hip-hop.

Your premise is fine. But why, out of all the people you could pick, would
you pick Coolio (a cool guy with a cool Stevie Wonder cover admittedly, and a
few other OK songs, but not that good) and mary j. blige (give me a break).
You need to branch out your rap just a teensy bit.
I don't listen to much rap, but if I were to name two albums they would be
Cypress Hill (yeah, I know it's trendy and Cypress Hill concerts are
basically unattendable because of the dickhead quotient of the crowd) and the
Genius from Wu-Tang. Maybe PE or Tribe Called Quest. And I have been told
Black Moon is fucking awesome and some of it is, I haven't heard enough to
say for sure.

You know what? You're right. LeatherStrip bitches continously about
Hitler and the 'White Disgrace" because he thinks it's funny. Skinny
Puppy are really burger-loving litterbugs - that shit that they say
and do onstage is just a series of twisted jokes that I didn't get
until right now. Cabaret Voltaire just uses samples of police
shooting people 'cause the had that shit laying around.
I was so wrong - slap my hand!
Exactly - I was a DJ, and I had heard way too much of PHM at least 3
months before it was released - us cool guys know what sucks before it
hits the market - when it did hit the market, and people started
telling me that NIN was "more industrial" (people who don't own .02%
as many CDs or albums as me) than Controlled Bleeding, Merzbow,
Cyberaktif, etc.
Live with it.
Like I said, this sounds a lot like leatherStrip to me - any other
Klaus fans agree?

Oddly enough, that's the reason why I decided to post a response. Being a lurker more

Hello! Anybody home? I know somebody must be living over there, because I keep
seeing your name. Let's take a walk back in time to your original post. You made
the allusion that hip hop music and industrial had nothing in common and that electro
music had melody while hip hop did not. I contended successfully that they both had
interlocking cornerstones, especially in '96. The similarities include a heavy reliance on
samples, drum machines (primarily James Borwn's Funky Drummer breakbeat),
electronics, AND an equal amount of melody. I did NOT say, that both genres sounded
identical, only that they shared immense structural similarities.
