  • English Beat: in Concert at the Royal Festival Hall DVD Reviewed on Audiovideorevolution.Com
    English Beat: In Concert at the Royal Festival Hall DVD Reviewed on AudioVideoRevolution.com title: English Beat: In Concert at the Royal Festival Hall studio: Secret Films MPAA rating: Not Rated starring: English Beat DVD release 2005 year: film rating: Three Stars sound/picture: Three Stars reviewed by: Dan MacIntosh When you break it right down, there’s nothing particularly English about The English Beat. You may recall how the group was once lumped in with the whole ska movement back in the ‘80s, mainly because it was on the 2 Tone Records label, along with The Specials and The Selector. But if you listen closely, you hear very little actual ska (which is not exactly a British export in the first place) in the group’s songs. For instance, the only horn player in this outfit is the ancient Saxa, who would much rather play mellow jazz than skanking beats anyhow. Furthermore, the group’s repertoire contains a bounteous supply of reggae – both fast and slow – as well as other dance grooves. But no matter the style, all of these elements support this act’s punkish political attitude, which is possibly its lone true English attribute. This show, which was filmed at The Royal Festival Hall in London, England, features quite a few of the band’s original members. These players include the two front people, Ranking Roger and Dave Wakeling, as well as Saxa and drummer Everett Morton. And except for Saxa, of course, all of these musicians still look incredibly young. Better yet, they also sound great.

In the second half of the 1970s, Brian Eno, Larry Fast, Mickey Hart, Stomu Yamashta and many other musicians blurred the lines between rock and avantgarde. Brian Eno (34), ex-keyboardist for Roxy Music, changed the course of rock music at least three times. The experiment of fusing pop and electronics on Taking Tiger Mountain By Strategy (sep 1974 - nov 1974) changed the very notion of what a "pop song" is. Eno took cheap melodies (the kind that are used at the music-hall, on television commercials, by nursery rhymes) and added a strong rhythmic base and counterpoint of synthesizer. The result was similar to the novelty numbers and the "bubblegum" music of the early 1960s, but it had the charisma of sheer post-modernist genius. Eno had invented meta-pop music: avantgarde music that employs elements of pop music. He continued the experiment on Another Green World (aug 1975 - sep 1975), but then changed its perspective on Before And After Science (? 1977 - dec 1977). Here Eno's catchy ditties acquired a sinister quality.

  • Darryl Way – Vivaldi's Four Seasons in Rock
    Darryl Way – Vivaldi’s Four Seasons In Rock (41:20, CD, Cherry Red Records- The Right Honourable Recording Company, 2018) Darryl Way dürfte den meisten Lesern durch sein Mitwirken bei Curved Air bekannt sein, oder auch durch seine Band Darryl Way’s Wolf (u.a. mit Ian Mosley. Auf dem Debütalbum von 1970 war er ebenso vertreten, wie auf den meisten Alben bis 1976 (auf dem 73er Album „Air Cut“ war an seiner Stelle ein gewisser Eddie Jobson aktiv). Bei „Alive 1990“ ist er noch einmal dabei, doch an der neuen Reinkarnation hat er nicht mehr teilgenommen. Zwar sind Curved Air nicht unbedingt in der allerersten Reihe der 70er Prog Dinos einzuordnen, doch sie konnten sich einen treuen Fankreis erarbeiten und erreichten durchaus einen gewissen Bekanntheitsgrad. Zu einem Herausstellungsmerkmal gehörte neben Frontfrau Sonja Kristina auch das prägnante Geigenspiel. Gleich auf dem Debütalbum „Air Conditioning“ ist ein Klassiker der Band zu finden, der seinerzeit auch zu den Höhepunkten ihrer Konzerte gehörte, nämlich der, logischerweise von Way arrangierte Titel ‚Vivaldi‘. He did it his way, sozusagen. Anscheinend stammt sein Arrangement aus dem Jahr 1968, denn im Booklet der vorliegenden CD steht geschrieben, dass sich Way pünktlich zum 50. Geburtstag seiner Klassik-Rock-Hymne an eine komplette Neueinspielung von Vivaldis „Die vier Jahreszeiten“ gewagt hat. Mit viel Respekt vor dem Original, das er für ein Beispiel musikalischer Perfektion hält, hat er sich vorgenommen, daraus eine Rock-Variante zu kreieren. Dabei hat er sich ganz bewusst sehr nah an der Vorlage bewegt, lediglich in langsameren Passagen hat er leichte Veränderungen zugelassen.

Estuve meditando durante un tiempo hasta que la iluminación llego a mi mente y recordé cuales fueron mis orígenes en la música. Hace ya mucho tiempo, cuando era un adolescente, entre en el mundo del rock de la mano de lo que en aquella época se llamaba “rock sinfónico”. Mi fascinación por este género era total y el instrumento que me imaginaba tocando eran los teclados, con el tiempo comprendí que no tenía capacidad para asumir semejante tarea. Hablar de sintetizadores, órganos, mellotrones, etc, para mí sería un placer pero entiendo que para la mayoría de los mortales podría suponer un gran dolor de cabeza. Por todo ello creo que mi colaboración puede versar sobre los teclistas del rock. RICK WAKEMAN No pretendo contar exhaustivamente la obra y milagros de este genio, eso sería muy largo y tedioso, simplemente daré unas pinceladas sobre su trayectoria basándome en mi experiencia. Rick Wakeman nació en 1,949 en Perivale, Londres, y como era de esperar estudio diversos instrumentos entre ellos el piano, pero el bueno de Rick era un inconformista y no se regía por los cánones clásicos por lo cual fue expulsado del Royal College Music.

    Perspectives on New Wave Cumbia | norient.com 7 Oct 2021 06:12:57 Perspectives on New Wave Cumbia by Moses Iten Since the beginning of the 21st century «new wave cumbia» has been growing as an independent club culture simultaneously in several parts of the world. Innovative producers have reinvented the dance music-style cumbia and thus produced countless new subgenres. The common ground: they mix traditional Latin American cumbia-rhythms with rough electronic sounds. An insider perspective on a rapid evolution. From the Norient book Out of the Absurdity of Life (see and order here). https://norient.com/stories/new-wave-cumbia Page 1 of 15 Perspectives on New Wave Cumbia | norient.com 7 Oct 2021 06:12:58 Dreams are made of being at the right place at the right time and in early June 2007 I happened to arrive in Tijuana, Mexico. Tijuana had been proclaimed a new cultural Mecca by the US magazine Newsweek, largely due to the output of a group of artists called Nortec Collective and inadvertently spawned a new scene – a movement – called nor-tec (Mexican norteno folk music and techno). In 2001, the release of the compilation album Nortec Collective: The Tijuana Sessions Vol.1 (Palm Pictures) catapulted Tijuana from its reputation of being a sleazy, drug-crime infested Mexico/US border town to the frontline of hipness. Instantly it was hailed as a laboratory for artists exploring the clash of worlds: haves and have-nots, consumption and its leftovers, South meeting North, developed vs. underdeveloped nations, technology vs. folklore. After having hosted some of the first parties in Australia featuring members of the Nortec Collective back in 2005 and 2006, the connection was made.

  • THE REVIEW: the Beat Were Formed in Birmingham in 1978. Soon After, They Had to Change Their Name to the ENGLISH Beat to Avoid Confusion with Another Band
    THE REVIEW: The Beat were formed in Birmingham in 1978. Soon after, they had to change their name to The ENGLISH Beat to avoid confusion with another band. They are known as one of the leaders of the Ska revivalist movement along with fellow Brits The Specials, Madness, The Selecter and The Body Snatchers. The British ska groups were of course multiracial and were formed by kids who lived in the same areas. Much like the poor kids of Jamaica, they didnt have much money so they formed bands to perform when they couldnt get into clubs.The English Beat was co-lead by Guitar/Vocalist Dave Wakeling a punk rock toaster, along with Ranking Roger another brilliant reggae/ska toaster. The other members were made up of Andy Cox (Guitar), Dave Steel (Bass), Everett Morton (Drums) and the one and only Saxa (Saxophone). Saxa was originally in a well known band called Prince Buster and Desmond Dekker, and this helped bring The Beat even more attention at the time. Saxa was also much older than the other chaps (around 50 years old at the time), but he contributed an extra special soulful touch that made the band sound even better than before. The Beat went on to open for The Selecter and they then were signed to the 2 Tone label (specialists in ska) and they followed this with the release of their first single "Tears of A Clown", a skanked up version of the Motown Smokey Robinson classic hit. In 1980, The Beat decided to start their own indie label and they called it Go-Feet (an Arista sub-label).
