Google honors with today's doodle, την 44η επέτειο από το θρυλικό πάρτυ στο Μπρονξ της Νέας Υόρκης, το 1973, όπου ο Dj Kool Herc δημιούργησε το break στην μουσική hip hop.
Like today, at 11 August 1973, at a school party in Bronx, New York, dj Kool Herc had an amazing idea that created a new style in hip hop, the break. Playing at the same time with two turntables prolonged the orchestral break allowing the audience to dance longer. A style that later became dance, breakdance, art, fashion and a whole lot more.
Today's doodle by Google has been curated by graffiti artist Cey Adams and has 2 interactive turntables that allow you to create your own samples using well-known songs directly from the original σελίδα of Google.
To get started, all you have to do is check with the mouse σας τα δύο πικάπ δημιουργώντας ηχητικά effects. Μπορείτε να επιλέξετε αυτόματο συγχρονισμό των δύο τραγουδιών ή να το κάνετε χειροκίνητα. Επίσης έχετε την δυνατότητα επιλογής των τραγουδιών που αναπαράγονται από τα πικάπ μέσα από μία μεγάλη γκάμα με κλασικά τραγούδια από καλλιτέχνες όπως ο George Clinton, The Isley Brothers, Billy Squire, και Betty Wright.
Although it is not the first time Google has been offering interactive music through doodle, Google's Ryan Germick said the project is one of the most complex in the company's history.
The band also worked with hip hop music industry veterans such as Fab 5 Freddy and Lyor Cohen, who is currently the head of YouTube Music, to create the range of artists that will be incorporated into the project.
Doodle can be seen on the Google homepage. If you want to learn more about the history behind this Google project you can visit this blog.
