Tags: Music, Film, Inspiration, Process, Identity, Production, Multi-tasking. On being thoughtful about each decision you make Musician and composer Owen Pallett on maintaining a punk ethos in the world of chamber music, their fool-proof lyric writing method, revisiting old work, and negative inspiration. This is your first solo album in six years, but you’ve been busy in that time with different scores and arranging for other musicians. Did these projects take any creative or financial pressure off you when it came to making this record? Sometimes they do and sometimes they don’t really. Film scores are always kind of a bit of a crapshoot. If you score a film and it becomes a bit of a hit, then you do get residuals off it, so it is a good investment if you pick the right films. I notoriously have a bit of a bad nose for a good script. Back in 2008 or 2007, Gus Van Sant was asking me to possibly score Milk prior to studio involvement, and I remember reading the script and thinking it was bullshit. It won an Oscar for Best Original Screenplay, and I was like “Oh wow, I don’t really have a good nose for that kind of stuff.” Most of the production work and arrangement work that I do is a little more labor of love.

And this is not my song, but it’s mine to use.” -- “Sadie” Joanna Newsom’s 2004 album, The Milk-Eyed Mender, was released at a time when music blogs were reaching new levels of popularity within certain sections of music and online communities. During this time, songs from nearly every high profile indie rock release seemed to find their way onto music blogs (often, to the chagrin of the music industry, far before slated release dates). Newsom’s songs were no exception – she was often something of a hot topic on blogs like Stereogum, My Old Kentucky Blog, Brooklyn Vegan, Gorilla vs.

Volume I These days, labels such as classical, rock and pop mean less and less since young musicians frequently blur boundaries between genres. These young musicians have built an alternative musical universe. I construct five different categories to explore this universe. They are 1) circuits of alternate concert venues, 2) cross-genre collaborations, 3) alternative modes of musical groups, 4) new compositional trends in classical chamber music, and 5) new ensembles and record labels. ii In this dissertation, I aim to explore these five categories, connecting them to recent cultural trends in New York.

  • Adventures in Film Music Redux Composer Profiles
    Adventures in Film Music Redux - Composer Profiles ADVENTURES IN FILM MUSIC REDUX COMPOSER PROFILES A. R. RAHMAN Elizabeth: The Golden Age A.R. Rahman, in full Allah Rakha Rahman, original name A.S. Dileep Kumar, (born January 6, 1966, Madras [now Chennai], India), Indian composer whose extensive body of work for film and stage earned him the nickname “the Mozart of Madras.” Rahman continued his work for the screen, scoring films for Bollywood and, increasingly, Hollywood. He contributed a song to the soundtrack of Spike Lee’s Inside Man (2006) and co- wrote the score for Elizabeth: The Golden Age (2007). However, his true breakthrough to Western audiences came with Danny Boyle’s rags-to-riches saga Slumdog Millionaire (2008). Rahman’s score, which captured the frenzied pace of life in Mumbai’s underclass, dominated the awards circuit in 2009. He collected a British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) Award for best music as well as a Golden Globe and an Academy Award for best score. He also won the Academy Award for best song for “Jai Ho,” a Latin-infused dance track that accompanied the film’s closing Bollywood-style dance number. Rahman’s streak continued at the Grammy Awards in 2010, where he collected the prize for best soundtrack and “Jai Ho” was again honoured as best song appearing on a soundtrack. Rahman’s later notable scores included those for the films 127 Hours (2010)—for which he received another Academy Award nomination—and the Hindi-language movies Rockstar (2011), Raanjhanaa (2013), Highway (2014), and Beyond the Clouds (2017).

  • 'The Glowing Man': a Critical Analysis of A
    “‘The Glowing Man’: A Critical Analysis of a Social Media Disclosure of Sexual Violence in the Field of Cultural Production” by Christopher Worden A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfillment of requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Sociology Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Christopher Worden, September, 2017 ABSTRACT “‘The Glowing Man’: A Critical Analysis of a Social Media Disclosure of Sexual Violence in the Field of Cultural Production” Chris Worden Advisor: University of Guelph, 2017 Dr. Mavis Morton This thesis examines the discourse surrounding an online disclosure of sexual violence in the music field. Research questions addressed three things: 1. The discursive role of symbolic capital and the field of cultural production; 2. The extent to which features of the online feminist counter-public were represented; and 3. How the logic of the music field and strategies of the online feminist counter-public contributed to accused and complainant outcomes. A critical thematic analysis of the online discourse demonstrated that symbolic capital and position were deployed to defend the accused and discredit the complainant. The response of the online feminist counter-public countered some discrediting discourse common in sexual assault cases, but did not fully engage with the logic of the field of cultural production that was used to discredit the complainant in this case. Recommendations are offered to music journalists, arts funding organizations, and online activists to mitigate against gendered power imbalances stemming from the devaluing of women as cultural producers. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I benefited immensely from the expertise and guidance of my advisor, Dr.

  • Pressemitteilung
    PRESSEMITTEILUNG MAXIMUM BLACK-Festival Club Tour Final Fantasy & Freunde gehen Ende Februar/Anfang März 2008 auf Festival Club Tour in drei europäischen Hauptstädten Owen Pallett, Singer/Songwriter und Kopf der kanadischen Band Final Fantasy kuratiert im März 2008 das Maximum Black Festival in London, Berlin und Wien. Neben dem Auftritt seiner Band werden als geladene, musikalische Gäste auf dieser Club Tour die international arrivierten Bands Deerhoof, Six Organs of Admittance, Dirty Projectors und Frog Eyes auf der Bühne stehen. Unterstützt wird dieses Projekt von den Wiener Stadtwerken. Diese ungewöhnliche Kooperation kam allerdings durch besondere Umstände zu Stande. Hintergrund Die Wiener Stadwerke hatten eine internationale Werbeagentur mit der Realisierung einer neue Imagekampagne für ihr Unternehmen beauftragt. Die Werbeagentur fragte Final Fantasy zwecks Verwendung des Songs „This is the Dream of Win & Regine“ als musikalische Untermalung ihres Werbespots an. Aufgrund gemischter Erfahrungen in der Vergangenheit entschieden sich Team und Band jedoch prinzipiell gegen die Freigabe der Musik in der Werbung. Die Werbeagentur entschloss sich in letzter Konsequenz jedoch dazu, das Lied als Auftragsarbeit nahezu originalgetreu von einem anderen Künstler nachspielen zu lassen und verwendete die „neue Version“ fortan in dem Spot für die Stadtwerke. Natürlich blieb dieser Plagiarismus nicht verborgen. Der erste Kontakt zur Werbeagentur seitens der Bookerin war erfolglos. Der Kontakt zu den Wiener Stadtwerken war es nicht. Der drohende Rechtsstreit war keine erstrebenswerte Lösung seitens Final Fantasys. Man einigte sich auf eine weitere besondere Abmachung: Final Fantasy, d.h. Owen Pallett und sein Team werden ein Festival kuratieren, welches zudem durch die Wiener Stadtwerke finanziell und logistisch unterstützt werde. Dafür dürfen die Stadtwerke die nachgespielte Version des Lieds in ihrem Werbespot mit dem Zusatz „nach einem Song von Final Fantasy“ weiter benutzen.
