[Usually refers to references within a text to one or more other texts (and ‘text’ can be broadly interpreted to include works in a variety of media – books, films, pieces of music, visual artworks, etc.)]

Gord: Intertextuality and the Double-Voiced Utterance
The term "intertextuality" was created by literary theorist Julia Kristeva. She was influenced in this by M. M. Bakhtin's concept of the double-voice utterance, in which two voices are heard in the quotation of or reference to an earlier work in a new one: the voice of the original author, and the new spin put on it by its placement in a new context in another author's voice. In rap, sampling and references to other raps and MCs are obvious examples of this concept, which was formulated many years before rap existed. For instances of intertextuality occurring in music, musicologist Ingrid Monson created the term "intermusicality."

Gord: The adjective "teleological" is frequently used to refer to something that is oriented to a specific goal, often one that has yet to be achieved. In music, it is often used to describe forms like the classical and romantic sonata form, in which the listener is taken on a musical journey ending in a final return to home (the tonic chord -- the ultimate goal after melodic, harmonic, and rhythm excursions). West African-derived musics involving extensive use of repetition are often characterized as less teleological and more about maintaining a sense of a "perpetual present."]]> 2019-03-21 20:08:20 UTC https://padlet.com/gordsheard/rose_definitions/wish/343993160 https://padlet.com/gordsheard/rose_definitions/wish/343996380 Toasting, in Jamaican music, is a vocal style performed by DJs. It is accompanied by a riddim which is essentially a sample or beat. The DJ will shout and sing to keep the energy up.

Gord: Toasting developed in the late 1950's under the influence of US radio DJs, who would talk while introducing a record. It was an important precursor to rapping.]]> 2019-03-21 20:18:36 UTC https://padlet.com/gordsheard/rose_definitions/wish/343996380
