Juke/Footwork

jimitheexploder [Edit] [Delete] 127 replies 02:06 June 19th, 2010

This is dance music from Chicargo that originates from house roots over the last 30 years or so... via a sample heavy hip-hop tradition and fuck knows what else, I'm just a dude from Yorkshire after all... This music is raw as hell, massive sub bass, twisted samples chopped and screwed out of proportion and insane drum machinie workouts. Its all pretty fast 160 bpm or so, the juke stuff is more stright up whilethe footwork stuff is that mad shit that makes peoples legs turn to jelly. I guess the nearest relations the UK has met up until now is prob ghetto house or booty bass, but that still doesn't prepare you for the mad drum workouts and raw energy. Dance Mania are kinda proto juke, folowing that thread...

Its hard where to start with this since I only came across it last year sometime and its pretty hard to pin down online, you've gotta be from Chicargo to really pin it down it seems...

DJ Nate cauht my ear with his really serreal drum machine/sample workouts, RP Boo and DJ Elmo did too. They all worked in that space between raw energy, speed and space an energy stuff like dubstep and jungle has been playing with parralel to this for some time so it kinda clicked... But this was really diffrent, it's so RAW.

Headhunter un-earthed it around the same time: http://soundcloud.com/headhunter/headhunter-juke-mix-december-2009 for me with that mix and one before it on some Oz radio show. He played loads of DJ Rashad, DJ Spinn, DJ Clent, god knows what else...

His own productions as Adision Groove took influence from this stuff, Footcrab and Bumb Shit have been anthems in the scene for a while and take the big bass drum workout feel and blend it with dubstep. It kind of kicked off a UK juke/footwork hybrid in the underground bass scene with Night Slugs who have been on it for time too dropping Girl Unit's IRL, which is another insane dance floor drum machine workout. Ramadanman and the Hessle crew have always been on a rhythmic tip but the latest platter by him Work Them has a Juke feel to it too, it comes on Loefah's Swamp 81 label, he's a guy that has been working the space vs time 808/909 thing for ages too so its a good home and cross polination between the UK and US.

But it aint all hybrids that are doing it right now... Planet Mu have finnaly got a Juke/Footwork producer on board to release some music outside of the Chicargo scene mixtape/cdr/youtube thing. You can grab stuff from DJ Rashad, DJ Clint and DJ Spinn on Juno download but others are kind of elusive... So check some links out for some sounds.

P.S. Shut up Jook/You're No Jook

The samples go from the sublime to the rediculess, I mean one min you'll be listening to film soundtrack strings building and building, looping and looping over mad beats, then you'll be listening to Evanescence or some other emo bo-locks before a big pop/r&b/rp sample will drop. But somehow it all works and ballances out the fucked up bass, beats, speed and space. A sample will get chopped up and fucked up out of context and it'll make you smile, it just adds to the energy.

DJ Nate aint even making Juke/Footwork anymore he dropped it to make R&B/Rap, leaving heads like Rashad and Spinn to keep things moving in the Chicargo scene as far as I can tell.

...I dunno its just raw, dark and fun, perfect fucked up club music. Its what I always wanted d'n'b to sound like in my club going lifetime instead of re-bore breaks and bait rinsed out lfo wobble basslines.

I don't think it's the kind of music

for 8am Saturday morning, but what I've heard of this (and that's mostly those UK Hybrids actually, I like. The ridiculous fastness of the beats reminds me of breakcore in a way, people like Drumcorps or Bong-Ra. I used to go mad for that music and Juke, with all its fun, almost joke-like, samples perhaps is a more 21st century form of ultimate beats per minute

      I was surprised to be honest, I've always found regular juke to be maddeningly intense and a little difficult - I think it's probably got something to do with Nate as opposed to anyone else, his music's a lot more soulful than you might expect for something so functional.

  awaythecrowroad and dis-integration this'd this
  - the drums in that song are actually amazing
    
    and the synth that comes in is absolutely gorgeous, and emerges from nowhere (bit of a ramadanman watermark now, cuz he does the same thing in glut to stunning effect). buuuut i just find how fast it is absolutely exhausting to the point where i just can't be bothered to put up with it any more. AND YEAH JUST STOP SAYING WORK THEM.
    
    also i forgot how absolutely fucking incredible IRL obviously is so maybe if i just let other people listen to juke and make records it'll be fine.

    - I don't know why but I got bored with IRL pretty quickly really....
      
      I was just listening to Glut/Tempest earlier this evening and it struck how much I've slept on Tempest...not that jukey but such a beautiful track, kinda reminds of Emeralds or OPN or something while being danceable (for some of it)
      
      I've only ever heard Work Them played out later on when I've been pretty pissed and then it's perfect. APart from Level Crossing, might be my track of the year.
      
      My desire to like juke because I tend to like fast, odd intense styles of music kinda outstrips my actual passion for juke which is a bit limited (but then I've never been to a full-on set of it.

      - I got bored with IRL pretty quickly
        
        The rest of that EP is much better imo.
        
        Work Them yeah is quite slow but really intense, perfect club fodder. But then so is all of Ramadanman's stuff, he's gradually perfecting a quite incredible style of music that's mega percussive but really thoughtful and well composed, and with a real sense of emotion.
        
        Agreed on Level Crossing, along with Work Them and a couple of other bits (Al Tourettes' blinding 'When I Rest I Rust' and Scuba's 'You Got Me' and 'So You Think You're Special') it's up there with my favourite tracks of the year.

        I need to get that Al Tourettes actually
        
        Because so much Ramadanman came out round that time, I slept on his Midland collab a little, but I've gone back to it in the last couple of weeks and it's really great, kinda under-rated I guess. I still really love Basic Music Knowledge just for being a bit of a spanner in the works, and loads of the dubs Pinch played on MAH the other night were amazing - real atmospheric, deep stuff.

    - work them is only 133 bpm its pretty much a house track
      
      it even says so on the record haha. Its not even the 140 dubstep pace let alone the 170 juke pace.
      
      Work Them destroys it in the dance though so addictive.
      
      There was a nice chicargo showcase on Resonance FM last night, you can hear it still... http://www.thewire.co.uk/articles/4649/ Its by Dave Quam one of the guys thats been introducing/educating loads of us heads about it this last year or so I guess...

  Its pretty confusing esspecialy when hung over but it gets under your skin and you get into the groove of it, find some sort of hyped up dreamy headspace in all that chaos, plus who knew you could make Evanescence into a a fucked up dance floor bomb on 'see into my eyes'. Now what the fuck am I going to mix this with? haha

        It makes me feel dizzy/hypnotised, pretty bizarre really for a guy who makes stuff and whacks it up on t'internet at uber lo bitrate.
        
        There are definite parallels to be drawn between people like him and the whole lo-fi hypnagogic, James Ferraro/Oneohtrix thing - subverting pop music through samples and a perverse sense of warped nostalgia.

        I can see where you're coming from there
        
        They both obviously using some sort of shared technique but for diffrent ends. And I dunno how much can be read into it. Cos that thread can prob be read into all music, people making their own takes on things they know and have heard but it coming out pretty wrong. Its just the way people work I think. There are threads though some sort of sample/hip-hop/breakbeat/creat digging culture but its just filtered diffrently thru either nostalgic hazy glasses or hyperactive dance music and electronic music culture in general. I dunno its all a big mess haha I mean the hynagogic stuff sounds homemade on perpose and the juke stuff is really home made but doesn't sound it half the time cos its soi extream and massive sounding, there are as many diffrences as there are simularites...

        Oh definitely, and that's the main problem with that whole 'hypnagogic' thing
        
        But I always think there are striking similarities between the lo-fi culture and the more DIY ends of electronic dance music culture - sampling, mixtapes, an emphasis on 'keeping it real' and staying independent...
        
        It's interesting, there's a lot of talk among the whole lo fi US Ferraro thing at the minute about chopped 'n' screwed stuff, and hip-hop in general being a huge influence, and it's hard not to wonder whether it's at least in part because that's been a huge part of the pop cultural background of our generation when growing up.

        yeah hip-hop is a big thing I think
        
        more than people realise it was prob the first genre that took on everything and played with it. So much other stuff since has taken that idea and ran with it. Either really litraly by doing what DJ Screw did and got twated and played stuff at 33 instead of 45 or in a more general fashion by recreating nostalgic visions of things they heard or thought they did in the past. Which is pretty much playing about with a sample all over again.

    - nice - ive been meaning to check out some more Juke-style things for a while now
      
      might be going to that surefire night at corsica studios in a couple of weeks (mainly because of Scuba and Dark Sky, but also for the Juke box :D )
      
      Don't know much Rustie or Pevelerist though - any ideas of what I can expect?

        Rustie plays mad party time fucked up hip-hop a bit like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cOHAXsJHPuw
        
        Peverelist plays really deep dubstep and house/techno a bit like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zo-5T4oswrM

        He's got an album on the way this year on Warp
        
        It should be well worth a look. He's got plenty of EPs/Singles out though. Hyperthrust was the last EP out. Zig-Zag is an altime fave of mine: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3epmUGyBUf8 Jagz The Smack is insane: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_tH1DohU_Nk The collab with Joker is next level: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=swnVlDtThfk Bad Science sounds like a hip-hop zomby nation but you know not as bad as that sounds: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=39WYUDdOqSA His remix of Zomby Spliff Dub is next level: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wE7Yj7RsuzM Loads more...

      - I'd drop the back end of that remix
        
        the front is really nice until 1.33 then the vibe is just gone for me at least. I'd have continued on that vibe until the end and lost the gnarly bit. It doesn't add any more energy the breakdown is nice n'all but after that it's well shit... It goes all clunky instead of getting that flowy, drum machine fucked up flow going. Close mind, nice effort.

        it was our first foray into juke territories, and were trying to make something that's a bit more of a challenging listen than the standard juke style.

    because I finally bought Bangs & Works and think it's incredible. Real glimpse into a strange and uncompromising dance subculture. Most of it is, by any objective musical criteria, terrible. But yet I'm finding it brilliant and completely addictive. So, yeah, I'm finally on this one.
