传奇人物 RP BOO

芝加哥footwork / juke 先锋 / 制作人

“

“我知道如何在圈子里战斗。跳Footwork的舞者需要燃料，他们通常说只有我可以让他们像那样去斗舞。就算不是站在唱机的后面，我也用同样的能量去和人们交流。这是一份工作，而我很擅长给予别人鼓励，我想要振奋人心，只要我活着，我就得努力地去生活。”

”

舞蹈是RP Boo的中心。如果你曾经很幸运的见识过他的DJ Set, 比如说2013年在克拉科夫（波兰城市）Unsound音乐节上开创性的欧洲首演，你肯定还记得他从DJ台后走到台前开始跟人群一起跳舞的片段，同时向声音和不断发展的肢体运动传播Footwork。

认识RP Boo的人也许会注意到存在于他最新专辑“Fingers, Bank Pads & Shoe Prints” 中紧张的斗舞美学，与RP Bo本人快乐的性格之间的明显反差。

Dancing is central to RP Boo. If you’ve been lucky enough to catch one of his DJ sets, such as his groundbreaking 2013 European debut at Unsound Festival in Krakow, you’ll have seen him come out from behind the decks and start dancing in and with the crowd, spreading Footwork both sonically and as an evolving set of movements. People who meet RP Boo may note a stark contrast between the intense battle aesthetics of his latest album “Fingers, Bank Pads & Shoe Prints” and the joyousness of RP Boo as an individual.

He says,

“

“I know how to speak battle from being in the circles. Footworkers need fuel and they often say, only you can get us to battle like that. Once outside the turntables, I use the same energy to speak with people. It’s a job and I am strong on giving encouragement to others, I want to uplift people. I have to try and walk that life for as long as I am alive.”

”

一些炒作媒体赞扬其为 “你从未听过的芝加哥最伟大的制作人”，BOO的作品是声音和运动的激进突变的起点，那场运动意味着芝加哥成为孕育当代俱乐部音乐创意的温床之一。

2013年他发布了《Legacy LP》，就像唱片名（遗产，传承）一样，巩固了他在这所城市的传奇舞池文化历史上的影响程度。

The legendary RP Boo, founding father of Chicago footwork/juke. Credited in some hype-oriented media as "the greatest Chicago producer you~q~ve never heard of", Boo~q~s oeuvre is ground zero for the radical evolution in sound and movement that has characterized that city as one of few hearths of true originality in contemporary club music.

He barely played outside of his hometown until the 2013 release of his Legacy LP, which, as the name implies, cemented his role within the city~q~s storied dancefloor-cultural history.

RP Boo对于 Footwork音乐，就像是Juan Atkins 对 Techno的意义一样－是一个迸发创新的想法和新方向的源泉。当被问起作为一个流派鼻祖这样一个角色的感受的时候，他谦虚地说，

“

“这其实花了我很长一段时间去适应。当它逐渐形成的时候，我不得不站在其他制作人和DJ的角度去思考它成为的样子。在不同的时间点，大家都说，嘿， RP，你知道你做音乐的方式启发了很多人，也把舞者们都充满力量的带入了一个全新的对战舞台。这帮助我看清了我实际上代表了一种声音的话语权。”

”

RP Boo is to Footwork what Juan Atkins is to Techno – a source point for a busting out of innovative ideas and new directions. When asked about his role as progenitor of the genre he humbly notes,

“

“It has taken me a while to adjust to. I actually had to think about how it could have come to be by listening to other producers and DJs that were around as it was forming. All of them said, at different times, hey RP you know you created a mean following of people that are inspired by the way you make tracks and get the dancers into a whole new battle stage with energy. It helps me see that I represent a breathing source of sounds.”

”

在音乐方面，RP Boo还是一位现代武士，以另类地方式切割采样，保持自己的音乐独一无二的特性。专辑“Fingers, Bank Pads & Shoe Prints” 包含了在他2013年受到高度赞扬的首张专辑 “Legacy”之后的以及其他旧时作品。亮点有可以看见他剪开街道号码的“Banging On King Dr.”，整体黑色感觉的“Sleepy”; 以及巧妙funk之笔的“Your Choice”，灵感来源于为Prince做贝斯手的父亲；还有“Lets Dance Again”，芝加哥跳舞音乐历史的soulful回声之作；注入戏剧性字符的 “Daddy~q~s Home” 和庆祝成功喜悦的“B~q~Ware.”等等都是不容错过的好作品。

Sonically, RP Boo is a modern-day Zatoichi samurai, cutting his samples in unorthodox ways. His sound remains unique. “Fingers, Bank Pads & Shoe Prints” contains both tracks made after his acclaimed 2013 debut album “Legacy” (“An album of scorching, scene-defining hits” SPIN) and older tracks. Highlights include “Banging On King Dr.” which sees him cutting up street numbers; the monolithic noir feeling of “Sleepy”; the subtle funk of “Your Choice” which may in some way be inspired by his Dad’s role as bass player for Prince; “Lets Dance Again” whose delicate soulful sound echoes deep streams of Chicago dance music history; the dramatic string-infused “Daddy~q~s Home” and the celebration of achieving dreams that is the closer “B~q~Ware.”
