  • Leksykon Polskiej I Światowej Muzyki Elektronicznej
    Piotr Mulawka Leksykon polskiej i światowej muzyki elektronicznej „Zrealizowano w ramach programu stypendialnego Ministra Kultury i Dziedzictwa Narodowego-Kultura w sieci” Wydawca: Piotr Mulawka [email protected] © 2020 Wszelkie prawa zastrzeżone ISBN 978-83-943331-4-0 2 Przedmowa Muzyka elektroniczna narodziła się w latach 50-tych XX wieku, a do jej powstania przyczyniły się zdobycze techniki z końca XIX wieku m.in. telefon- pierwsze urządzenie służące do przesyłania dźwięków na odległość (Aleksander Graham Bell), fonograf- pierwsze urządzenie zapisujące dźwięk (Thomas Alv Edison 1877), gramofon (Emile Berliner 1887). Jak podają źródła, w 1948 roku francuski badacz, kompozytor, akustyk Pierre Schaeffer (1910-1995) nagrał za pomocą mikrofonu dźwięki naturalne m.in. (śpiew ptaków, hałas uliczny, rozmowy) i próbował je przekształcać. Tak powstała muzyka nazwana konkretną (fr. musigue concrete). W tym samym roku wyemitował w radiu „Koncert szumów”. Jego najważniejszą kompozycją okazał się utwór pt. „Symphonie pour un homme seul” z 1950 roku. W kolejnych latach muzykę konkretną łączono z muzyką tradycyjną. Oto pionierzy tego eksperymentu: John Cage i Yannis Xenakis. Muzyka konkretna pojawiła się w kompozycji Rogera Watersa. Utwór ten trafił na ścieżkę dźwiękową do filmu „The Body” (1970). Grupa Beaver and Krause wprowadziła muzykę konkretną do utworu „Walking Green Algae Blues” z albumu „In A Wild Sanctuary” (1970), a zespół Pink Floyd w „Animals” (1977). Pierwsze próby tworzenia muzyki elektronicznej miały miejsce w Darmstadt (w Niemczech) na Międzynarodowych Kursach Nowej Muzyki w 1950 roku. W 1951 roku powstało pierwsze studio muzyki elektronicznej przy Rozgłośni Radia Zachodnioniemieckiego w Kolonii (NWDR- Nordwestdeutscher Rundfunk). Tu tworzyli: H. Eimert (Glockenspiel 1953), K. Stockhausen (Elektronische Studie I, II-1951-1954), H.

  • I've Learned That Every Time I Go to the Store I Get the Cart with Gum 1 5 on the Wheel
    M a Super r “I've learned that every time I go to the store I get the cart with gum 1 5 on the wheel. 1 -Live Learn and Pass it on 9 9 8 ight is a pensive time for me. Surrounded by the anonymous GDT:Volume 10 issue 1 Ndarkness, with the cold, uncaring light of ancient stars shining mercilessly down upon me, it is sometimes easy to imagine stepping through a long forgot- ten and unknown portal and disappearing. In supermarkets late at night the feeling can, ironically, become stronger. It's no coincidence that many people in our age have dreams of flying in supermarkets. There is something magikal about passing down isles filled with sustenance from across the world; a jar of spaghetti sauce from Italy; a beer from the Emerald Isle; blessed fish paste from the cradle of several major religions--most dead, but others thriving, waiting for their brethren's demise. The artificial lights and insistent Muzak don't detract from the feeling, but in the strange way that only plastic jewelry can add to the regalness of a seven year old girl, it includes another mystery all its own. For all of our advancement in knowledge and understanding of the world we per- ceive, we are snobby hunter-gatherers and some racial memory takes us back to the tales of the Sampo, bottomless cups, and cornucopia. Standing in the cash only aisle is the closest we may come to the fountainhead of myth. There, gods are born and dragons defeated. Recently, on such a rare, mystical night, when my blood was more copper than iron, as I exited the doors to the super market without even so much as an "Open Sesame" to acti- vate them and ambulated through the parking lot toward my mode of vehicular transport, I spotted a particularly sad oxidized member of the Taberna plaustrum family.

  • Biografías. Dj Tiesto
    BIOGRAFÍAS. DJ TIESTO. Tijs Verwest Michiel nació en Breda, en una familia cristiana en Brabante Septentrional, Países Bajos, el 17 de enero de 1969. Tenía interés por la música desde los doce años. A los catorce años decidió dedicar más tiempo a ella y comenzó a pinchar profesionalmente en las fiestas de la escuela. A continuación, pasó a ser un DJ residente entre 1985 y 1994 en varios clubes en los Países Bajos después de su manager y amigo Wilfred le animó. Sin embargo, fue en The Spock, un pequeño club de Breda, donde fue capaz de afinar su propio estilo al jugar en una habitación separada de 10 pm hasta las 4 am los fines de semana. Al principio de su carrera como DJ se juegan generalmente los New Beat y el acid house, y muchas canciones de Madonna porque su música demuestra que a ella le gusta bailar. Antes del lanzamiento de su álbum ya había dancemixes como "Vogue", que fue una de las canciones de Spock. En 1994 comenzó a lanzar material en los expedientes de Noculan Chemo y Coolman. Durante estos años, produjo hardcore/gabber bajo los alias de temas tales como Da Joker y Limited DJ. Fue descubierto más tarde por el director general de Rotterdam Batir Basic para hacer grabaciones base. A finales de 1994 fichó por Basic Bata donde se reunió con Arny Bink, Tiësto lanzó el registro, fundada por Arny, y más tarde creó el Ángel de la Guarda sub-sello con Arny en el que se presentó la popular serie Forbbien paradise.
