Hey, old man river, zip it or I'll break your hip.





Nah -- to me, heavy low end synth rocking the melody and the Juno pads + the groove + crooning = boogie





but that's sort of my own take...
 
Okem said:'boogie' is just one of those genre terms I've never truly understood the definition of.

same here





it's all disco dance electro-funk to me





anybody here knows what this joint is ?











Flash non d??t??ct??








it reappeared in the latest Madlib mix for his medicine show series. it was already on his Mind Fusion Vol. 3 from 2005
 
I think boogie is more frequently used as a term - and has more of a clearer association with a certain sound - here in the uk than maybe other places. if you want a sense of what boogie is to us, well just think d train or most of that prelude stuff. i can't really explain why one track would be called electro and another boogie, its not a cognitive distinction, it just IS so. this is boogie, thats not. no idea why. we are weird over here y'all know that already. boogie was a really big scene once upon a time here. uptempo syncopated dmx drum machine soul shit. the cultural hangover extends very deep into much of london's musical output ever since.

I thought it was a typically American idiom





*reminisces over MJ *
 
its an american word clearly, but i've heard people use that term way more over here. and boogie the genre even has a funny pronounciation here which i can't really transcribe. the "oo" part is clipped. so it's like - bougie. sorta
 
There's are really good write up of 'Boogie' from the Uk perspective on Greg Wilsons' site - http://www.electrofunkroots.co.uk/articles/the_building_blocks_of_boogie.html along with Sean P's 100 essential boogie records from 80-84.





IMO Boogie is more disco-funk, although you get the Greg Wilson types who played electro and boogie, and the slightly harder edged electro-funk tracks, which also get labeled boogie.
