History of dance music...

Electronic dance music is a style of popular music commonly played in dance music nightclubs, radio stations, shows and raves. The term "dance music" is usually used for more commercial forms of electronic music. However, both dance music and electronic dance music is made electronically for dancing. Styles include Eurobeat, house, Eurodance, jungle, hip house, trance, techno, funk, garage, and many others. Associated with dance music are usually commercial forms that may not easily be pigeonholed, for example "The Power" by Snap! and "Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody Dance Now)" by C+C Music Factory. Those tracks are characterized by mixing dance music and hip hop. The chorus usually derives from disco music, the music itself consists mainly of danceable hip hop beats.

Electronic dance music experienced a boom after the proliferation of personal computers in the 1980s, many music genres that made use of electronic instruments developed into contemporary styles mainly due to the MIDI protocol, which enabled computers, synthesizers, sound cards, samplers and drum machines to control one another and achieve the full synchronization of sounds. Electronic dance music is typically composed using computers and synthesizers, and rarely has any physical instruments. Instead, this is replaced by digital or electronic sounds, with a 4/4 beat. Dance music typically ranges from 120bpm, up to 200bpm, with techno, trance, and house being the most widespread. Many producers of this kind of music however, such as Darren Tate and MJ Cole, were trained in classical music before they moved into the electronic medium.

<<世界有你有我>>歌詞

I know I can,你的微笑我看到

I know I can,你的奔跑我驕傲

親愛的盡情歌唱,今天你是super star

Jean was nominated for Best Hip-Hop Act at the 2000 MTV Europe Music Awards. In 2005, he earned a Golden Globe nomination for his track entitled "Million Voices" featured on the soundtrack to the film Hotel Rwanda.

Jean has been active in his support of his native country and created the foundation Yéle Haïti to provide humanitarian aid and assistance to Haïti. He describes Yéle is a non-political organization intended to empower the people of Haïti and the Haïtian diaspora to rebuild their nation, saying, "The objective of Yéle Haïti is to restore pride and a reason to hope, and for the whole country to regain the deep spirit and strength that is part of our heritage".[citation needed]. Yele Haiti was created in January 13th 2005. Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt were present for the first anniversary in 2006. In January 2007, Jean became a roving ambassador for Haiti, to help improve its image abroad.

Sun With Wyclef Jean

Born in Croix-des-Bouquets, Haiti as Andrew Taylor, he was renamed Wyclef Jean by his adoptive father. His father was a pastor and re-named him after John Wycliffe. He moved with his family to Brooklyn, New York when he was nine, then to northern New Jersey, where he began playing the guitar and studying jazz in high school. At 14, Jean was shot.
As a young adult, Jean worked as a cabdriver. In 1987, Jean, his friend Prakazrel Michel (whom Jean has called his cousin), and his classmate Lauryn Hill formed a hip hop group called the Tranzlator Crew before becoming The Fugees.
