    Live Among the White Trash: a History of Nono----Manman on Stage

    Live Among the White Trash: A history of nono----manman on stage “There are no No-Man concerts scheduled for the foreseeable future.” (from the official no-man website) Anyone who has followed no-man’s career over the previous ten years or so will be acutely aware that the band does not play live. If no-man “exist” as a band at all – and their infrequent releases mean they are more an ongoing understanding between two men rather than an active unit – it is only in the studio. Over a series of uncompromising albums no-man’s music has become ever more complex, yet ironically, “live sounding” than the release which proceeded it. But this organic “liveness” is mainly an illusion; the feeling of spontaneity often the result of numerous edits and takes which only the precision of studio work can produce. Others have tried to perform equally difficult music live: Radiohead ambitiously thrusting their clicks-and- cuts post-rock upon the world’s stadiums, for example. But for a variety of reasons, no-man simply haven’t tried – at least, not since 1994 and not until a one-off performance in 2006. The only comparable case is Talk Talk’s retreat into the studio in the late 1980s. Both bands have undoubtedly crafted their best work without going near an audience. 1 But it wasn’t always so. no-man were once very much a live act, promoting singles and albums with dates and undertaking two full-blown tours – though they rarely played outside London, never went further north than Newcastle, and never played outside Great Britain.

    Past, Present and Future Harman International 2004 Annual Report

    Harman International 2004 Annual Report Past, Present and Future Our cover is a rendering of the new Shanghai, China Oriental Arts Center. Now under construction for the 2008 Olympics, it will incorporate two concert halls, an opera house and an eleven hundred seat theater. The Oriental Arts Center is one of many totally new theatres, athletic stadia and performing art centers being built to serve the most expansive Olympics in history. Harman International has received a number of significant awards and we expect to be very well represented. China is a compelling and sometimes tantalizing story for everyone. Our past, our present and our future are writ large there. Ten years ago Harman found a voracious market for our quality home audio equipment. That was the past. Numbers of very competent Chinese manufactures have developed in the years since, and have produced excellent products with increasingly recognized Chinese brand names. That is not a promising busi- ness situation for us, although our upcoming new media centers may generate revived interest—at least for a time. Our present is represented on the cover of this report. As China surges economically, its need for supportive infrastructure grows exponentially. Our professional systems are without peer, and we expect that part of our business to grow and flourish everywhere, but especially in China. It is clearly our present. The great opportunity before us, not surprisingly, is in automotive. Predictably, China is developing as a major market for automobiles and, consequently, for our Infotainment systems. We are the leader in Europe today and we are confident that we will be the leader in North America.

    Precious but Not Precious UP-RE-CYCLING

    The sounds of ideas forming , Volume 3 Alan Dunn, 22 July 2020 presents precious but not precious UP-RE-CYCLING This is the recycle tip at Clatterbridge. In February 2020, we’re dropping off some stuff when Brigitte shouts “if you get to the plastic section sharpish, someone’s throwing out a pile of records.” I leg it round and within seconds, eyes and brain honed from years in dank backrooms and charity shops, I smell good stuff. I lean inside, grabbing a pile of vinyl and sticking it up my top. There’s compilations with Blondie, Boomtown Rats and Devo and a couple of odd 2001: A Space Odyssey and Close Encounters soundtracks. COVER (VERSIONS) www.alandunn67.co.uk/coverversions.html For those that read the last text, you’ll enjoy the irony in this introduction. This story is about vinyl but not as a precious and passive hands-off medium but about using it to generate and form ideas, abusing it to paginate a digital sketchbook and continuing to be astonished by its magic. We re-enter the story, the story of the sounds of ideas forming, after the COVER (VERSIONS) exhibition in collaboration with Aidan Winterburn that brings together the ideas from July 2018 – December 2019. Staged at Leeds Beckett University, it presents the greatest hits of the first 18 months and some extracts from that first text that Aidan responds to (https://tinyurl.com/y4tza6jq), with me in turn responding back, via some ‘OUR PRICE’ style stickers with quotes/stats. For the exhibition, the mock-up sleeves fabricated by Tom Rodgers look stunning, turning the digital detournements into believable double-sided artefacts.

  • Steve Jansen &#8211; Tender Extinction

    Steve Jansen – Tender Extinction

    Steve Jansen – Tender Extinction (48:20, CD, A Steve Jansen Production, 2016) Bereits im April dieses Jahres erschien das aktuelle Soloalbum des Ex-Japaners Steve Jansen. War der Vorgänger „Slope“ noch auf Samadhi Sound, dem Label seines Bruders David Sylvian herausgekommen, ist „Tender Extinction“ im Eigenverlag über Bandcamp veröffentlicht worden. Erneut versammelte Jansen eine ganze Reihe hochkarätiger Gäste für sein Album. Es sind dieses Mal hauptsächlich Gast- Vokalisten und -Vokalistinnen. Sein BruderDavid gibt allerdings weiterhin den Waldschrat und war dieses Mal nicht dabei. Zum Einstieg gibt sich der Schwede Thomas Feiner die Ehre und liefert Gesang und Text zu ‚Captured‘. Das dunkel- symphonische Stück gibt die Marschrichtung des Albums vor und wirkt geradezu beschwörend bedrohlich – „Something left, and died out there“. Auch das von Perkussion dominierte ‚Her Distance‘ mit Gastsänger und Texter Perry Blake setzt auf beschwörende Gesangslinien und dunkle Atmosphäre. Insbesondere dieses Stück lässt Erinnerungen an das Cameo-Japan-Album „Rain Tree Crow“ aufkommen. Zwischen den gewichtigen Vokalstücken platzierteJansen Ambient-artige Instrumentals und Miniaturen, die dem Werk einen sanften Fluss geben. Tim Elsenburg (‚Give Yourself A Name‘) und Nicola Hitchcock (‚Faced With Nothing‘) verleihen den von ihnen gesungenen Stücken mit ihrehn markanten Stimmen einen sehr eindringlichen Charakter.Jansen selbst am Mikrophon beendet das Album mit dem sanften ‚And Bird Sing All Night‘, wobei er wiederum seinem berühmten Bruder zum Verwechseln ähnlich klingt. Tja, die Gene. Dass „Tender Extinction“ nicht als Stimmungsaufheller taugt, versteht sich somit von selbst. Herbstlicher Schwermut durchzieht dieses Werk. Das quirlig-elektronische Element, das Steve Jansens Album „Slope“ auszeichnete, wurde für „Tender Extinction“ ersatzlos gestrichen. Die Zusammenarbeit mit den genannten Sängern und Sängerinnen und eine eher sparsam symphonische Ausrichtung bringt hier Spannung auf einem anderen Terrain hervor.

    Leksykon Polskiej I Światowej Muzyki Elektronicznej

    Piotr Mulawka Leksykon polskiej i światowej muzyki elektronicznej „Zrealizowano w ramach programu stypendialnego Ministra Kultury i Dziedzictwa Narodowego-Kultura w sieci” Wydawca: Piotr Mulawka [email protected] © 2020 Wszelkie prawa zastrzeżone ISBN 978-83-943331-4-0 2 Przedmowa Muzyka elektroniczna narodziła się w latach 50-tych XX wieku, a do jej powstania przyczyniły się zdobycze techniki z końca XIX wieku m.in. telefon- pierwsze urządzenie służące do przesyłania dźwięków na odległość (Aleksander Graham Bell), fonograf- pierwsze urządzenie zapisujące dźwięk (Thomas Alv Edison 1877), gramofon (Emile Berliner 1887). Jak podają źródła, w 1948 roku francuski badacz, kompozytor, akustyk Pierre Schaeffer (1910-1995) nagrał za pomocą mikrofonu dźwięki naturalne m.in. (śpiew ptaków, hałas uliczny, rozmowy) i próbował je przekształcać. Tak powstała muzyka nazwana konkretną (fr. musigue concrete). W tym samym roku wyemitował w radiu „Koncert szumów”. Jego najważniejszą kompozycją okazał się utwór pt. „Symphonie pour un homme seul” z 1950 roku. W kolejnych latach muzykę konkretną łączono z muzyką tradycyjną. Oto pionierzy tego eksperymentu: John Cage i Yannis Xenakis. Muzyka konkretna pojawiła się w kompozycji Rogera Watersa. Utwór ten trafił na ścieżkę dźwiękową do filmu „The Body” (1970). Grupa Beaver and Krause wprowadziła muzykę konkretną do utworu „Walking Green Algae Blues” z albumu „In A Wild Sanctuary” (1970), a zespół Pink Floyd w „Animals” (1977). Pierwsze próby tworzenia muzyki elektronicznej miały miejsce w Darmstadt (w Niemczech) na Międzynarodowych Kursach Nowej Muzyki w 1950 roku. W 1951 roku powstało pierwsze studio muzyki elektronicznej przy Rozgłośni Radia Zachodnioniemieckiego w Kolonii (NWDR- Nordwestdeutscher Rundfunk). Tu tworzyli: H. Eimert (Glockenspiel 1953), K. Stockhausen (Elektronische Studie I, II-1951-1954), H.
