John Zorn Plays Ennio Morricone Once Upon A Time In The East Village Brooklyn Academy of Music New York City, NY October 31, 1986 Thanks to the original uploader; and to Eugene_Debs for sharing the show on the net. Original notes: I walked in on the end of the first tune, so that is missing. The original tape was made from the back row of the theatre and was recorded very low due to the extreme dynamic range of this group. Sometime in the late ‘80s I did a dub with some compression/noise reduction and EQ and applied some fades. That’s the tape this seed is made from. The master tape is MIA. The sound overall is good, not great, but this is one AMAZING concert, Zorn’s live performances of this material were few and far between, and AFAIK this is the only show that used such a large ensemble. And with five of the most distinctive axe manglers on the planet in one group... let’s just say that if you could only download one Zorn torrent, this would be a prime candidate. + + + + + Lineage: Aud > Marantz PMD340 > cass (1 gen) > Peak > Xact > shn MP3 Version Battle Of Algiers (missing) 01.

BAM Presents Brazilian Superstar Marisa Monte in Concert, May 1 & 2
BAM presents Brazilian superstar Marisa Monte in concert, May 1 & 2 SAMBA NOISE Marisa Monte With special guests Arto Lindsay, Seu Jorge, and more TBA BAM Howard Gilman Opera House (30 Lafayette Ave) May 1 & 2 at 8pm Tickets start at $35 April 8, 2015/Brooklyn, NY—Renowned Brazilian singer/songwriter Marisa Monte makes her BAM debut with two nights of contemporary Brazilian popular music in a show specifically conceived for the BAM Howard Gilman Opera House. The performances feature Monte’s hand-picked band and guest artists. Praised by The New York Times as possessing “one of the most exquisite voices in Brazilian music,” Marisa Monte has been the benchmark for excellence among female singers in Brazil since she burst upon the scene in 1987. As she approaches the 30-year mark of her career, she still commands the same admiration and prestige that greeted her stunning debut. Her 12 CDs and seven DVDs have sold over 10 million copies worldwide and garnered 11 Latin Grammy Award nominations (winning four) and eight Video Music Brazil awards. For her BAM debut, she will perform with artists that are closely associated with her, including American producer/composer Arto Lindsay, Brazilian singer/songwriter/actor Seu Jorge, and others to be announced. About the Artists Born in Rio de Janeiro, the home of samba, Marisa Monte honed her singing skills with operatic training in in Italy. Her work embraces the traditions of MPB (música popular brasileira) and samba within a pop format that is modern and sophisticated. Aside from being a talented composer—she recorded her own work starting with her second album, Mais (EMI-Odeon, 1991), produced by Arto Lindsay—Monte is considered one of the most versatile performers in Brazil.

Goodbye 20Th Century: Noise, Modernism, Aesthetics
1 Goodbye 20th Century: Noise, Modernism, Aesthetics Invited paper given at Noisetheorynoise#1, March 6 2004, Centre for Research in Modern European Philosophy, Middlesex University David Cunningham There is a familiar complaint that, by contrast to our resources for articulating the visual world, our dominant verbal languages lack a similarly rich vocabulary of sound. Yet, despite (or because of) this apparent linguistic ‘lack’, noise as a specific figure of excess – with its accompanying metaphorics of the ‘ear-splitting’, the ‘over- powering’, or even the ‘unlistenable’ - has often seemed particularly liable to provoke a concomitant rhetorical excess on the part of its would-be theorists. Such rhetoric - which continually risks drifting into the utopianist fantasy of a ‘matter’ totally liberated from all formal ‘construction’ – no doubt takes shape, to some crucial degree, through its inevitable relation to the historically-conditioned figure of ‘excess’ itself. (‘Noise’, after all, is one of those disconcerting forms that Burke associates with the category of the Sublime, that canonical philosophical articulation of excess). In this regard, it is not perhaps coincidental that a certain contemporary ‘noise music’ has often been seen to make common cause with a particular discourse of bodily, material ‘transgression’, which has its neat equivalents in both literature and the visual arts. Yet, as the conceptual artists Art & Language argue, in a recent article, ‘it does not follow’ from the perhaps ‘over-intellectualized delibidinized’

The "blank generation" came out of a moral vacuum. While punks roamed the suburban landscape, blue-collar workers were feeling the pinch of an economic revolution: human society had left the industrial age and entered the post-industrial age, the age in which services (such as software) prevail over manufacturing. Computers now rule the world, from Wall Street to Boeing. The assembly line took away a bit of the personality of the worker, but that was nothing: the new service- based economy takes away the worker completely, physically. In the post-industrial society the individual is even less of a "person". The individual is merely a cog in a huge organism of interconnected parts that works at the beat of a gigantic network of computers. This highly sophisticated economy treats the individual as a number, as a statistic. The goal is no longer to create a robot that behaves like a human being, but to create a human being that behaves like a robot: robots are efficient and lead to manageable and profitable businesses, whereas humans are inefficient and difficult to manage.

Once the effects of the new wave were fully absorbed, it became apparent that the world of singer-songwriters would never be the same again. A conceptual mood had taken over the scene, and that mood's predecessors were precisely the Bob Dylans, the Neil Youngs, the Leonard Cohens, the Tim Buckleys, the Joni Mitchells, who had not been the most popular stars of the 1970s. Instead, they became the reference point for a new generation of "auteurs". Women, in particular, regained the status of philosophical beings (and not only disco-divas or cute front singers) that they had enjoyed with the works of Carole King and Joni Mitchell. Suzy Gottlieb, better known as Phranc (1), was the (Los Angeles-based) songwriter who started the whole acoustic folk revival with her aptly-titled Folksinger (? 1984/? 1985 - nov 1985), whose protest themes and openly homosexual confessions earned her the nickname of "all-american jewish-lesbian folksinger". She embodied the historic meaning of that movement because she was a punkette (notably in Nervous Gender) before she became a folksinger, and because she continued to identify, more than anyone else, with her post- feminist and AIDS-stricken generation in elegies such as Take Off Your Swastika (1989) and Outta Here (1991).

Robert Quine Page 1 of 1 6/14/2004
Page 1 of 1 Robert Quine (Filed: 14/06/2004) Robert Quine, who has died aged 61, was acknowledged to be one of the most original and formidably talented guitarists in rock music; a founder member of American punk band The Voidoids, he later worked with Lou Reed, Tom Waits, Lloyd Cole and Brian Eno. At first glance, Bob Quine appeared an unlikely punk. A nephew of the philosopher W V Quine, he was a tax lawyer until his mid-thirties, by which time he was already nearly bald. Even at the height of his success, he took to the stage in a well-ironed shirt and black sports jacket, his only concession to attitude being the wearing of sunglasses. Equally out of keeping with punk's ethos was his command of his instrument, from which he produced an intense, aggressive, dissonant sound. Lou Reed acclaimed him as "a magnificent guitar player . an innovative tyro of the vintage beast". His skills are best preserved on Blank Generation, the album he recorded with Richard Hell in 1977. Having renounced the law, he was then working in a Greenwich Village bookshop with Hell and Tom Verlaine, both members of the proto-punk group Television. Hell, having fallen out with Verlaine and later with Johnny Thunders of The Heartbreakers, which he had gone on to join, put together a new band with Quine, Ivan Julian and Marc Bell (later of The Ramones) - The Voidoids. Quine coaxed suitably angry sounds from his Stratocaster to frame Hell's nihilistic yet purposeful lyrics, and the LP - especially its title track - became an underground success.

John Lurie and the Lounge Lizards
John Lurie and The Lounge Lizards John Lurie the sax player, the actor, the painter and the fisherman. Though this might sound like a schizophrenic portrait it's simply the truth. All these different personalities suit in the same physical body. Born in Worcester, Massachusetts on December 14 1952, he's mostly known as the founder of The Lounge Lizards, a modern jazz ensemble featuring a bunch of hipsters of the New York Downtown scene. Along with his brother Evan on piano there were Arto Lindsay (guitar), Anton Fier (drums) and Steve Piccolo (bass). This is the band playing inside “The Lounge Lizards” (EEG, 1981), their first official album, although the band was already active at the end of the seventies. The ensemble underwent a few changes over the years: Arto Lindsay was later replaced by Marc Ribot on guitar and more elements were added until the band expanded into an octet, sometimes even a nonet, maintaining John Lurie in New York, 1982 however their typical unsettling, ironic, often sharp, sound. The Lounge Lizards perfectly embodied the Downtown noir-like atmosphere surrounding the artists in New York at the beginning of the eighties. “No pain for cakes” (Island, 1987), “Voice of Chunk” (Strange & Beautiful Music, 1990), “Queen of all ears” (Strange & Beautiful Music, 1998) plus a bunch of live recordings followed their self-titled debut release and are the overall output of the band. Not too much of an output considering when the band was formed, but John used the stage to refine, rearrange and shape the tunes over and over.

Robert Quine Interview- Perfect Sound Forever
Robert Quine interview- Perfect Sound Forever http://www.furious.com/perfect/quine.html ROBERT QUINE Interview by Jason Gross (November 1997) Who is Robert Quine? According to him, he 'remains one of the most compelling, appalling and universally hated figures in music history.' If you think that's a little too generous, Kenneth Coleman has written his own tribute to Quine. Let me just say that I don't see how you can just say that Quine is a sideman or collaborator who happened to work with Richard Hell, Lou Reed, Brian Eno, Tom Waits, Matthew Sweet and others- he's been an important part of their music, critically shaping it. Since most of his work has been working with these better-known performers, he hasn't become a household name himself. His guitar playing is certainly distinctive enough to warrant this but the fact is that he technically has only two albums to his name (both collaborations). Even so, anyone familiar with his work is rabid about him as I found out when I asked around to drill up some support for this interview. Any old session man can play the right notes in time but Quine just plain TEARS IT UP and takes no prisoners. You KNOW when he plays a solo. How about calilng him a guitarist's guitarist? You get the picture. Enormous thanks go out to Phillip Bull, Scott Russell, Christopher Hamilton, Michael Piper and ESPECIALLY JIM DEROGATIS AND ALICE SHERMAN! JUNE 2004: Old friend Jim Marshall reports to us that Quine took his own life.
