Im now listening to Four Tet's cd Pause after I heard Lemon Jelly's Lemon cd and it's come to my attention that a lot of acts are incorporating jazz into the common hip hop...but in the same way BoC does. They all sound similar...which is good. Im enjoying hearing different sides to a sub genre...what ever genre the 'BoC sound' is. |

I'm listening to Freescha's '"Slower Than Church Music'' right now, and I'd put them in the ''BOC sound'' group. It has the same calming melodies with the slow nifty beats. Me like. |

|
eh?... i cant quite say i know what youre talking about... explain what you mean by 'incorporating jazz into the common hip hop'... |
||||||||
|

Well like BoC, Lemon jelly, Four Tet...having a jazz sound but putting hip hop beats to it. |
||||||||

thats not really new though...hip hop has always had a jazz element...especially instrumental hip hop...you have to remember the 'hip hop beat' most often comes from sampled jazz records... artists like four tet and boc (i havent heard lemon jelly) seem to have been influenced by labels like mo'wax and ninja tune and artists like dj shadow and dj krush...who have all been making jazzy (mostly instrumental) hip hop for most of the 90's |

I see. Thats pretty cool. How many cds do Four Tet have besides Pause, do you know? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
well..theres a remix cd called 'paws' and a bunch of singles i think...im not too sure if theres another full length album though |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i just don't see how's jazz involved with boc |
||||||||
|

|
anyone mentioning lemonjelly and BoC in the same sentence needs to be flogged. |
||||||||

|
|
what jazz elements are in boc?, cause I don't hear it at all. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
niether do I... it seems people here throw around the word Jazz way too often... I've also seen Autechre being called Jazzy... I really don't see how electronic music in general has anything to do with Jazz... Jazz is pretty free, whereas electronic music is, well, just the opposite I think... by free I mean the soloing and stuff... also, a totally different sound... |

boards of canada are my favourite group, ever. |

>'s the obvious exception, though. he's got a huge jazz influence. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hmmm, yeah you're right, there are some exceptions... but still, groups like Autechre and Boards of Canada have nothing to do with jazz in my mind... |
||||||||

I actually just recently heard the remix of cliffs.. neat-0 stuff other than that, I haven't heard much at all. |
||||||||
|

i can't hear any jazz in boc. with the possible exception of 'turquoise hexagon sun', which has a slightly chromatic jazz key thing happening. but apart from that, there's nothing jazz about them. |
||||||||
|

Nothing out there sounds like BoC (with the exception of Christ's 'Pylonesque' EP, but hey, he's ex-boc) and that's what makes them great. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Okay...fine..you guys win..BoC has nothing to do with jazz and Lemon jelly has nothing to do with BoC!!! THERE i said it :) please don't hurt me again.... you're right im wrong. |

boc use grace notes. jazz uses grace notes. boc don't sound very jazzy. meep |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, the 'Pylonesque' 12" sounds more bocish than BoC themselves.... I really like the dirty oldskool sound of BoC, satisfy me more than Geogaddi. |
||||||||

|
|
..although id like to hear some jazz in boc, that might sound nice |
