  • Behind the Music
    Q&A BEHIND THE MUSIC It’s crazy to think that this year marks the 20th Anniversary of Kurt Cobain’s passing – a true game-changer in our industry, and a man who, in many ways, revolutionised music, inadvertently spawning a whole new scene. Nevermind is a seminal record, and its success was the catalyst for record labels’ mission impossible, the search for ‘the next Nirvana’. Although he might not have known it at the time, those 16 days recording Nevermind would change Butch Vig’s career forever. It paved the way for a remarkable musical journey, the production of a string of hit records for supergroups such as The Smashing Pumpkins, The Foo Fighters, and many more... Not to mention Garbage, Vig’s own band, which has enjoyed more than 17 million record sales over the last two decades. This legend of the game reveals some of his trade secrets, and shares some fond, unforgettable memories... Your career speaks for itself, but first up, how did it all begin for you? Well, I played in bands in high school in a small town in Wisconsin, and then I went to University in Madison. I started getting into the local music scene, and joined a band, which was sort of a power pop, new wave band called Spooner; and Duke [Erikson] from Garbage was the guitarist and lead singer at the time. I also got a degree in film, and ended up doing a lot of music for film; a lot of synth, and abstract music, and that’s where I kind of got the recording bug.

  • Remix Magazine, September 1St 2002 TIME BANDITS
    Remix Magazine, September 1st 2002 TIME BANDITS Garry Cobain and Brian Dougans — aka Amorphous Androgynous and Future Sound of London — started making magic with sequencers and samplers long before Aphex Twin, The Orb and Orbital were just beginning to dabble in revolutionary sonic experiments. An ultraworld of quicksilver samples, sequenced atmospheres and lushly rolling beats, the duo's early masterpiece Lifeforms (Astralwerks, 1994) suggested, for the first time, an alternate sound world created with computer technology. But just as the world seemed ready for Future Sound of London and accepted their apocalyptic Dead Cities (Astralwerks, 1996) album with open arms, the devious duo disappeared, retreating to reclaim their souls as the media pervaded their psyches. Those were somewhat better times for the pair, before Cobain discovered a certain death that lurked inside his body. “I had developed an arrhythmic heart, massive food and environmental allergies, eczema and stiff joints,” says Cobain from FSOL's Kensal Road recording studio in London. “I realized that my immune system was shot to ribbons by my mercury fillings. Silver is the same thing as mercury. They use the word silver not to tell you that you have the second most toxic substance known to man in your gob. You are talking mass conspiracy shit here.” After having the fillings removed (Dougans followed suit), Cobain took up fasting, meditation and enema cleansing; slowly, year after year, his health returned. But even before Cobain's illness sidelined FSOL, Cobain and Dougans were already tiring of the scene, its influx of ambient compilations and growing corporate interference.

  • Automatic Recognition of Samples in Musical Audio
    Automatic Recognition of Samples in Musical Audio Jan Van Balen MASTER THESIS UPF / 2011 Master in Sound and Music Computing. Supervisors: PhD Joan Serr`a,MSc. Martin Haro Department of Information and Communication Technologies Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona Acknowledgement I wish to thank my supervisors Joan Serr`aand Martin Haro for their priceless guidance, time and expertise. I would also like to thank Perfecto Herrera for his very helpful feedback, my family and classmates for their support and insightful remarks, and the many friends who were there to provide me with an excessive collection of sampled music. Finally I would like to thank Xavier Serra and the Music Technology Group for making all this possible by accepting me to the master. Abstract Sampling can be described as the reuse of a fragment of another artist's recording in a new musical work. This project aims at developing an algorithm that, given a database of candidate recordings, can detect samples of these in a given query. The problem of sample identification as a music information retrieval task has not been addressed before, it is therefore first defined and situated in the broader context of sampling as a musical phenomenon. The most relevant research to date is brought together and critically reviewed in terms of the requirements that a sample recognition system must meet. The assembly of a ground truth database for evaluation was also part of the work and restricted to hip hop songs, the first and most famous genre to be built on samples. Techniques from audio fingerprinting, remix recognition and cover detection, amongst other research, were used to build a number of systems investigating different strategies for sample recognition.

Samplers and Sampling Technology ▪ A bit of History – Before Sampling ▪ Hardware Digital Samplers ▪ Software Samplers ▪ Sampling Technology ▪ Typical Structure of a Musical Sampler 7. SAMPLERS AND SAMPLING TECHNOLOGY A BIT OF HISTORY – BEFORE SAMPLING PIPE ORGANS Figure 1: The Arp-Schnitger organ in the Ludgerikirche, Norden (Germany) The idea to imitate the sound of musical instruments with another instrument is not new: already centuries ago pipe organs included several registers that were at least inspired by other instruments and that sometimes really sounded very close to the originals (flutes, trumpets, cornets, bassoons, etc.). To create a vast amount of different sound colors, the pipes were manufactured using different materials (wood, tin metals, etc.) and shapes (cylinder, cone, prism, etc.). For certain registers (such as trumpets, bassoon, cornets etc.) reeds were also used. Other registers used more than one row of pipes, slightly detuned against each other (imitatio violistica, vox humana) to obtain a chorus-like effect. Typical organ register combinations were obtained through an additive process, adding to the original tone registers tuned in octaves and fifths (Mixtur, or Organo Pleno), or combinations of fifths and thirds (Sesquialtera). As the addi- tional rows of pipes were tuned according to the natural overtones of the original tone, they tended to blend together creating a new timbre and were not perceived as separate notes. This made the pipe organ one of the most powerful and flexible instruments of all times. However, it never really be- came very good at imitating orchestral string sounds, and it was not good at all at imitating percussive ones.

  • Multi-Track Recording in the 1990S
    1 Marie Lascu 3403 Lacinak/Oleksik 12/13/2011 Multi-Track Recording in the 1990s Multi-track recording involves the capture of individual sounds (guitar, drums, flute, finger snaps, vocals etc.) through separate audio channels onto individual tracks on a single tape. An artist can record several tracks that can be shaped, polished and deconstructed without limit, and tracks can be played back simultaneously or separately.1 Multi-track recording in the 1990s continued the tradition of recording, editing, mixing and mastering on analog tape, though fast-improving digital technology began to take hold. The introduction of digital audio workstations (DAW) such as Pro Tools provided digital sound recording and manipulation. The digital equipment, however, continued to rely on analog tape storage for the digital output, or hard disk based computer systems.2 The band Garbage is a good representative of a new wave of bands that embraced and incorporated digital recording technology into their creative and recording process. Composition This is the origin stage where ideas are shaped into full-bodied songs. Technology is not necessarily required for this process, though it was common place for bands to continue the tradition of recording 4-track demos onto 2” analog tape. These demos were the models, skeletons, or spring boards for what would find its way on to the final album. Most bands to this day record demos prior to entering a studio to cut an album, or at least work them out live extensively. 1 Ben Blakesley, "The Formation of a Song," abclearnguitar.com, 2004. <www.abclearnguitar.com/recording.html> (14 October 2011) 2 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multitrack_recording 2 Preserving demos is important because they are a record of creation from an artistic entity.
