I wish for nuanced conversations about #CulturalReappropriation, #Othering, #Exoticism, and #EthnicIdentity. In #HipHop and other forms of #ElectronicMusicking.
Thing is, though I have negative reactions to much of this, I also “get” it.
Something of a classic, for me, is a conversation between #StevenFeld and #CharlesKeil.

(Student reactions to that conversation have helped assess my own biases.)
Music Grooves is an adventure in scholarly and personal dialogue. We link two thematic preoccupations central to the study of music: the experience of musical participation and the experience of musical mediation. To more personally and vocally unite the essay materials, we recorded and transcribed our own speech about music and playing and listening to it together. We talk about grooving, sound, participation, style, musical experience, culture, mediation, performance, records and recording, lift-up-over sounding, participatory discrepenacies, and the purposes of this site are to make our dialogues easily available and to encourage others to dialogue along with us.
@Euphoria what we mean by #TV is a certain subset of this world view that is shared by a larger group of people. It may be #EthnicIdentity as well.
Or just people who know who Conan O'Brien is.
