Seoul / Daebudo / Vienna, August 13, 2010 TIME LIFE announces the release of the TORTURE CLASSICS COLLECTION. Torture Music is the kind of music that’s perfect for sitting in the Afghan or Iraqi Desert, sharing a prisoner for a night, or relaxing in a military barack or a CIA black site in some godforsaken country on a lazy afternoon. It's music thats just makes you feel free and drives others crazy. But, the artists included in the TORTURE CLASSICS COLLECTION have taken the Torture Music sound and given it a psychotic and everlasting quality. This Torture Music compilation includes 60 songs, tons of images, uncensored videos, pdfs and extra bonus material. The Ultiimate Collection DOWNLOAD-DVD inlcudes both The White Site Album and The Black Site Album. To kick-off of the release of the TORTURE CLASSICS ULTIMATE COLLECTION DOWNLOAD-DVD, a 24h TORTURE-GALA-PERFORMANCE will take place. The headling act of the evening will be James Powderly, who will be subjected to Musical Torture, in the experienced hands of Hans Bernhard, who will blast the new hit track “Two Different Tears” by the original K-pop Idols the Wondergirls. He will be tightened into stress- positions to prevent him from muting the sound.

  • March of the Pigs Augustus Sol Invictus, P:.I:.º, Excommvnicatvs Thornton Park, Florida I Ianvarivs Mmxv Ivppiter
    MARCH OF THE PIGS AUGUSTUS SOL INVICTUS, P:.I:.º, EXCOMMVNICATVS THORNTON PARK, FLORIDA I IANVARIVS MMXV IVPPITER The supreme Rite would be to bring about a climax in the death of the victim. By this Rite one would attain the summit of Magical Art. Even better would be to slay a girl, preferably a willing victim. After violating her, she should be cut into 9 pieces. These should not be eaten, but divided as follows: head, arms, legs, and quadrisected trunk. The names of the gods appropriate are to be written on the skin, the arms are then to be flayed, and burnt in honour of Pan or Vesta, the legs (treated in the same manner) should be offered to Priapus, Hermes, or Juno. The right shoulder is sacred to Jupiter, the left buttock to Venus. The head should not be flayed, but burnt simply, and that in honour either of Juno or Minerva. The Rite should not be employed on ordinary occasions, but rarely, and then for great purposes; it should not be disclosed to any man.1 I cannot admit to having performed this ritual; but I will admit to having spoken of it favourably to a Brother several years ago. He, replying that I could not possibly be serious in desiring to perform it, laughed, a stifled horror straining beneath his breath. Crowley repudiated this ritual, he reminded me. An “evil influence” had entered the temple before this vision was had – or so the Record said – and the supreme Rite was thus discounted as the trick of a malevolent demon.

It is an issue that ties into the broader context of torture, a topic of heated debate in the US-led “War on Terror”. Arising from this debate is the concept of “torture-lite”, a term that has emerged within political, social and academic discourse. Although using music as torture is not a new phenomenon, its importance as a research topic is heightened within the current political and social climate sensitive to the ethics of torture. Such sensitivities have resulted in certain interrogation methods, one of which is music torture, being loosely categorised as torture-lite. However, this categorisation is fraught with misconceived ideas on the relationship between sound and body, and mitigates the destructive potential of music torture. Thus, I am arguing that music torture is not torture-lite, as the term “torture-lite” trivialises the severity of music torture and favours the continuation of its use.

  • British Music Videos and Film Culture
    Scope: An Online Journal of Film and Television Studies Issue 26 February 2014 The Fine Art of Commercial Freedom: British Music Videos and Film Culture Emily Caston, University of the Arts, London In the “golden era” or “boom” period of music video production in the 1990s, the UK was widely regarded throughout the world as the center for creative excellence (Caston, 2012). This was seen to be driven by the highly creative ambitions of British music video commissioners and their artists, and centered on an ideological conception of the director as an auteur. In the first part of this article, I will attempt to describe some of the key features of the music-video production industry. In the second I will look at its relationship with other sectors in British film and television production – in particular, short film, and artists’ film and video, where issues of artistic control and authorship are also ideologically foregrounded. I will justify the potentially oxymoronic concept of “the fine art of commercial freedom” in relation to recent contributions in the work of Kevin Donnelly (2007) and Sue Harper and Justin Smith (2011) on the intersection between the British “avant garde” and British film and television commerce. As Diane Railton and Paul Watson point out, academics are finally starting to recognize that music videos are a “persistent cultural form” that has outlived one of their initial commercial functions as a promotional tool (2011: 7). Exhibitions at the Museum of Moving Image (MOMI) in New York and the Foundation for Art and Creative Technology (FACT) in Liverpool have drawn the attention of Sight and Sound, suggesting that this cultural form is now on the verge of canonization (Davies, 2013).

  • Nine Inch Nails Music
    Over and Over Again is 30 years of live Nine Inch Nails music. Live tracks from 1988-2018. This is a live audio compilation of my live audio compilations. 90% of the tracks are from my previous 8 projects and 10% are new tracks and mixes. This project is 15 hours and 47 minutes long and has 211 tracks. One selection of every song that Trent has been on stage for as NIN and was taped is included in this. Some songs have multiple versions when needed. All the tracks have been mixed together to sound like one impossibly long concert. The tracks are structured into 11 sets roughly 85 minutes each just incase you need to take a break while listening. Additonal ramblings: Going with my past run of project titles you could call this project A Mix Of AlLThat There Ever Was Over And Over Again * " M.988-2018J if you really want to, but I’m not. \ There are some tracks that have multiple sources. These are my attempts at combining parts of different sources into one track. \ \ Given the different recording conditions it’s not always possible to make the transitions seamless. Some tracks only had a few sources to choose from, so audio quality The Following Content: varies at times, like in Kinda I Want To. - Setlist, 11 parts This compilation is more raw sounding compared to my projects that are tour specific.
