  • Following Is the Text of a Letter That Was Sent by Amy Sky, Marc Jordan and Marie Denise Pelletier to All Members of Parliament and the Senate on March 18, 2009
    Following is the text of a letter that was sent by Amy Sky, Marc Jordan and Marie Denise Pelletier to all Members of Parliament and the Senate on March 18, 2009. Support for Canada’s artists became a front-burner issue in 2008. Unfortunately, we’re still waiting for fair compensation for our work. We are hopeful that 2009 is the year that this happens. Despite the political heat that was generated around arts-related issues in last fall’s federal election campaign - fanned in large part by the elimination of federal grants and programs to promote Canadian culture - we’re still waiting for real reforms to the copyright legislation which impacts tremendously on our livelihood. While grants and support programs are extremely important to artists, especially in the early stages of building a career, they are only one part of the bigger picture when it comes to living – and, more to the point, making a living – as an artist in this country. We are singers, songwriters and recording artists. Like so many other Canadians who make and market something, we make our living from the sale and use of what we create. Some people make furniture, or footwear, or even wireless hand-held communication devices. We make music. Just like the clever folks who created Birkenstocks or the Blackberry, Canada’s songwriters and recording artists are proud of the music they create. It has value, in both the artistic and monetary senses of the word. But unlike the creators of other things, artists don’t enjoy the same kind of safeguards to ensure they are fairly compensated when their work is copied and used.

  • Rock Album Discography Last Up-Date: September 27Th, 2021
    Rock Album Discography Last up-date: September 27th, 2021 Rock Album Discography “Music was my first love, and it will be my last” was the first line of the virteous song “Music” on the album “Rebel”, which was produced by Alan Parson, sung by John Miles, and released I n 1976. From my point of view, there is no other citation, which more properly expresses the emotional impact of music to human beings. People come and go, but music remains forever, since acoustic waves are not bound to matter like monuments, paintings, or sculptures. In contrast, music as sound in general is transmitted by matter vibrations and can be reproduced independent of space and time. In this way, music is able to connect humans from the earliest high cultures to people of our present societies all over the world. Music is indeed a universal language and likely not restricted to our planetary society. The importance of music to the human society is also underlined by the Voyager mission: Both Voyager spacecrafts, which were launched at August 20th and September 05th, 1977, are bound for the stars, now, after their visits to the outer planets of our solar system (mission status: https://voyager.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/status/). They carry a gold- plated copper phonograph record, which comprises 90 minutes of music selected from all cultures next to sounds, spoken messages, and images from our planet Earth. There is rather little hope that any extraterrestrial form of life will ever come along the Voyager spacecrafts. But if this is yet going to happen they are likely able to understand the sound of music from these records at least.

  • Ckul Future Moves Beyond Bi-Polar Personalities
    CKUL FUTURE MOVES BEYOND BI-POLAR PERSONALITIES By James Harder News Editor n Monday morning the Students Union General Assembly unani­ Omously decided to put the future of CKUL radio in the hands of a six person committee which neither SU president Jon Wescott or former CKUL Station Manger Aaron Nakama can have a seat on. "I don't get to play in it and Aaron does­ n't get to play in it," said SU President Jon Wescott. Over the past four months, Nakama and Wescott have battled back and forth for con­ trol of the station. Nakama ha.s been trying to keep CKUL at the helm of the Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commission license, while Wescott ha.s tried to ensure the SU remains in control of "I don't get to play in it and Aaron doesn't get to play in it," said SU President Jon Wescott. the station.

  • Global Success, Identitarian Performance, and Canadian Popular Music
    8 Global success, identitarian performance, and Canadian popular music Will Straw In the introduction to The British Pop Dandy, Stan Hawkins (2009, 3) speaks of ‘the tangible notions of national ethnicity and male behaviour’ which have inflected a long history of British pop celebrity. Nations are woven of multiple ethnicities, of course, but Hawkins shows how national cultures often work to ‘ethnicise’ certain perceived common features as the basis of national character. As Hawkins’ treatment of the dandy shows, this ethnicisation is distributed unevenly across the terrain of gender, producing stereotypes of national charac- ter which rarely attach themselves with equal sticking power to both men and women. If the male dandy has served as one modulating figure within a broader construction of Englishness, female versions thereof – or other figures of equivalent renown – have been absent or only partial in their elaboration. This chapter looks at cultural celebrity in Canada, and at female musical celebrity in particular. I will trace something of the ‘problem’ this celebrity has posed for critical commentary, which struggled to find ways of understanding the extraordinary commercial success of Canadian female musical performers in the 1990s and early 2000s. During a period hailed for the perceived trans- national ascendancy of the female musical artist, three Canadians – Celine Dion, Alanis Morissette, and Shania Twain – became the most commercially successful solo female musical performers in the world. Just as the circulation of Canadian music through the world was largely the result of these successes by women, so, too, was the broader domain of transnational female musical celebrity ‘Canadianised’, to a degree never seen before or since.
