Historical Development, Sound Aesthetics and Production Techniques of Metal’S Distorted Electric Guitar
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by University of Huddersfield Repository Historical development, sound aesthetics and production techniques of metal’s distorted electric guitar Jan-Peter Herbst Abstract The sound of the distorted electric guitar is particularly important for many metal genres. It contributes to the music’s perception of heaviness, serves as a distinguishing marker, and is crucial for the power of productions. This article aims to extend the research on the distorted metal guitar and on metal music production by combining both fields of interest. By the means of isolated guitar tracks of original metal recordings, 10 tracks in each of the last five decades served as sample for a historical analysis of metal guitar aesthetics including the aspects tuning, loudness, layering and spectral composition. Building upon this insight, an experimental analysis of 287 guitar recordings explored the effectiveness and effect of metal guitar production techniques. The article attempts to provide an empirical ground of the acous- tics of metal guitar production in order to extend the still rare practice-based research and metal-ori- ented production manuals. Keywords: guitar, distortion, heaviness, production, history, aesthetics Introduction With the exception of genres like black metal that explicitly value low-fidelity aesthetics (Ha- gen 2011; Reyes 2013), the powerful effect of many metal genres is based on a high production quality. For achieving the desired heaviness, the sound of the distorted electric guitar is partic- ularly relevant (Mynett 2013). Although the guitar’s relevance as a sonic icon and its function as a distinguishing marker of metal’s genres have not changed in metal history (Walser 1993; Weinstein 2000; Berger and Fales 2005), the specific sound aesthetics of the guitar have varied substantially. -

Voice Overs: Where Do I Begin?
VOICE OVERS: WHERE DO I BEGIN? 1. WELCOME 2. GETTING STARTED 3. WHAT IS A VOICE OVER? 4. ON THE JOB 5. TODAY’S VOICE 6. UNDERSTANDING YOUR VOICE 7. WHERE TO LOOK FOR WORK 8. INDUSTRY PROS AND CONS 9. HOW DO I BEGIN? 2 WELCOME Welcome! I want to personally thank you for your interest in this publication. I’ve been fortunate to produce voice overs and educate aspiring voice actors for more than 20 years, and it is an experience I continue to sincerely enjoy. While there are always opportunities to learn something new, I feel that true excitement comes from a decision to choose something to learn about. As is common with many professions, there’s a lot of information out there about the voice over field. The good news is that most of that information is valuable. Of course, there will always be information that doesn’t exactly satisfy your specific curiosity. Fortunately for you, there are always new learning opportunities. Unfortunately, there is also information out there that sensationalizes our industry or presents it in an unrealistic manner. One of my primary goals in developing this publication is to introduce the voice over field in a manner that is realistic. I will share information based on my own experience, but I’ll also share information from other professionals, including voice actors, casting professionals, agents, and producers. And I’ll incorporate perspective from people who hire voice actors. After all, if you understand the mindset of a potential client, you are much more likely to position yourself for success. -

English language. doi: 10.1386/mms.1.3.303_1 PauwKe BerKers and Julian schaaP Erasmus University Rotterdam youTube as a virtual springboard: circumventing gender dynamics in offline and online metal music careers aBsTracT Keywords Studies have shown that learning to play in a band is largely a peer-based – rather gender inequality than individual – experience, shaped by existing sex-segregated friendship networks. online With the rise of the Internet and do-it-yourself recording techniques, new possibili- offline ties have emerged for music production and distribution. As male-dominated offline YouTube metal scenes are often difficult to enter for aspiring female metal musicians, online musical careers participation might serve as a possibility to circumvent these gender dynamics. This virtual springboard article therefore addresses to what extent female and male musicians navigate online metal scenes differently, and how this relates to the gender dynamics in offline metal scenes. By conducting ten in-depth interviews with women and men who produce vocal covers on YouTube, this article focuses on the understudied relationship between online and offline scene participation. Vocal covers are used for entertainment, skill development, online skill recognition and as a virtual springboard with which women in particular can (partially) circumvent gender inequality by allowing them to (initially) participate as individuals and pursue musical careers in metal music. 303 MMS_1.3_Berkers and Schaap_303–318.indd 303 8/8/15 6:31:41 PM Pauwke Berkers | Julian Schaap inTroducTion Music scenes in general – and metal scenes in particular – are highly stratified along gender lines. -
