Today, we can see the tendency that much part of popular music is oriented towards dance music. The elements of dance-oriented popular music, especially of those rhythms are majorly influenced by House/Techno music which was emerged around the early 1980’s from the underground night club scene in the United State. This article intends to examine the reason how and why House music was invented and about to strongly influence on popular music. In the process of examination, it is mentioned that a unique role of Japanese synthesizer named TB-303 which contributed towards developing the early scene of Acid House Music. The major group to invent and bring up House music was gay Afro-Americans in that time and they should be recognized as subcultural tribe in terms of urban sociology/cultural studies. In this paper, I regard the House music as the practice of bricolage by urban tribe and as TB-303 as tribal musical instrument. Also the trend of embodiment of music is discussed through the process in which popular music is about to change from the thing to listen towards something to feel.

This paper investigates how Japanese dancers have represented ‘black’ or ‘black people’ (Kokujin) in their performances and analyzes their meanings, their ambivalent feelings towards Kokujin, and the influence of American diplomacy in the Post-War period. In Hijikata Tatsumi’s dance piece Kinjiki (Forbidden Colors) in 1959, thought as the first Butoh performance, he painted his body black to represent the black male character from Jean Genet’s novel. However, it was not only Hijikata who performed ‘black’ in this period. After WWⅡ, Japanese dancers picked up the subject that concern to black people such as the social movements of Afro-American, or used music and dance techniques related to black culture, and performed some representations of blackness by various ways especially in the period of 1950s-70s. Here, we can point out the influence of dancers who came to Japan such as Katherine Dunham or Alwin Ailey, and the jazz music that spread during this era, and the US’s policy towards Japan lay behind them. This study will show that in these representations of black people, there is a sense of solidarity of Japanese dancers with Afro-Americans, problems of discrimination that existed in different phases in Japan, and also Japanese people’s own prejudice towards black people.
