Pas d’invité ce mois-ci mais une émission spéciale consacrée à un genre musical du début des années 80, né aux Etats-Unis, qui fusionne le groove et les délires cosmiques du P-Funk de George Clinton, la culture Hip-Hop naissante, les mélodies synthétiques de la New Wave et l’esthétique robotique venue d’Allemagne, Kraftwerk en tête : l’Electro (appelé aussi Electro-Funk ou encore Electro-Boogie).
Suite à la mort récente de Lance Taylor, plus connu sous le nom d’Afrika Bambaataa, j’ai eu envie de revenir sur une période qui a influencé bon nombre de DJs et contribué à l’éclosion de la Techno. Un terme que l’on retrouve d’ailleurs dans des titres de morceaux comme « Techno Trax » de Man Parrish sorti en 1983 et « Techno City » de Cybotron en 1984. Ou encore dans le pseudonyme de Reggie Griffin & Technofunk dès 1982.
L’arrivée de nouvelles boîtes à rythmes comme la Roland TR-808 et les rêves d’avenir meilleur des Noirs américains, influencés par les sons nouveaux venant d’Europe, ont donné naissance en 1982 à ce courant musical à la fois futuriste et profondément enraciné dans le groove, chaînon manquant entre la musique électronique et industrielle allemande de la fin des années 70 et la Techno de Detroit, laquelle est officiellement baptisée en 1988 avec la sortie de la compilation « Techno! The New Dance Sound of Detroit » regroupant les pionniers du genre comme Juan Atkins, Kevin Saunderson et Derrick May.
L’Electro, c’est donc un contexte social et culturel mais c’est aussi une esthétique marquée : des voix vocodées, des textures spatiales, des nappes synthétiques qui évoquent les machines, les villes et les réseaux. Un son urbain et avant-gardiste, qui s’inscrit dans une époque marquée par l’essor des technologies et une fascination pour le digital.
