This era witnessed the worldwide emergence of new and synthesized styles of popular music. Black music, particularly funk, vibrantly reflected social conditions, building on James Brown’s declaration of disasso - ciation: “Say It Loud—I’m Black and I’m Proud.” Similarly, white punk rock thunder - ously denounced the status quo.

  • SST Defies Industry, Defines New Music
    Page 1 The San Diego Union-Tribune October 1, 1995 Sunday SST Defies Industry, Defines New Music By Daniel de Vise KNIGHT-RIDDER NEWSPAPERS DATELINE: LOS ALAMITOS, CALIF. Ten years ago, when SST Records spun at the creative center of rock music, founder Greg Ginn was living with six other people in a one-room rehearsal studio. SST music was whipping like a sonic cyclone through every college campus in the country. SST bands criss-crossed the nation, luring young people away from arenas and corporate rock like no other force since the dawn of punk. But Greg Ginn had no shower and no car. He lived on a few thousand dollars a year, and relied on public transportation. "The reality is not only different, it's extremely, shockingly different than what people imagine," Ginn said. "We basically had one place where we rehearsed and lived and worked." SST, based in the Los Angeles suburb of Los Alamitos, is the quintessential in- dependent record label. For 17 years it has existed squarely outside the corporate rock industry, releasing music and spoken-word performances by artists who are not much interested in making money. When an SST band grows restless for earnings or for broader success, it simply leaves the label. Founded in 1978 in Hermosa Beach, Calif., SST Records has arguably produced more great rock bands than any other label of its era. Black Flag, fast, loud and socially aware, was probably the world's first hardcore punk band. Sonic Youth, a blend of white noise and pop, is a contender for best alternative-rock band ever.

    Bilderna av Kent 10/13/03 8:13 Volume 6 (2003) © Lars Lilliestam, 2003 Bilderna av Kent En fallstudie av musikjournalistik, autenticitet och musikmytologi Lars Lilliestam INLEDNING [1] Musik och berättande Musik är mer än bara musik. Musik är mer än det som klingar. Vi hör alltid musik genom filter av förförståelse, förväntningar, fördomar eller kunskaper. Om man vill försöka förstå vilken verkan musik har och vad den betyder för människor, måste man ta i beaktande vad människor berättar om musiken. Berättandet – vad som skrivs om musik och hur människor talar om musik – laddar musiken med föreställningar, ideologier, värden. Mening uppstår när musiken, människan och berättelserna om musiken möts. Vi tänker, talar eller läser om musik för att bearbeta och jämföra våra egna upplevelser med andras. Genom denna process skapar och utvecklar vi en inre bild av musiken och upplevelsen av den. Berättelser om musiker, musikskapare, musikverk eller låtar, gåtor och oklarheter i verks historia, uttolkningar, tragiska eller på annat sätt fascinerande och gripande levnadsöden och skandaler färgar upplevelsen av musiken. Tänk på historierna om Beethovens dövhet, skandalerna vid premiären av Stravinskijs Våroffer 1913, Bob Dylans framträdande vid Newport Folk Festival 1965, eller mysteriet kring bluessångerskan Bessie Smiths död... Kring artister och genrer spinns en samling berättelser och anekdoter (skrönor, myter, legender) av olika slag – ett narrativ. Dessa berättelser sprids i olika former (intervjuer, reportage, biografier, historiska översikter, recensioner, krönikor) i olika medier (fack- och dagspress, böcker, tv, radio, internet) och muntligen man och man emellan i ett komplicerat och näst intill oöverblickbart spel. Vissa berättelser kan vara skapade av exempelvis ett skivbolag i syfte att understryka en viss image, andra har sitt upphov bland publik, fans eller skribenter.

  • Framework for Visualising Music Mood Using Visual Texture
    FRAMEWORK FOR VISUALISING MUSIC MOOD USING VISUAL TEXTURE Adzira Husain MA Art and Design (Visual Communication and New Media) UiTM, Shah Alam 2008 Bachelor in Multimedia (Hons) (Digital Media) Multimedia University, Cyberjaya 2004 This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2020 DECLARATION I declare that this thesis is my own account of my research and contains as its main content work, which has not previously been submitted for a degree at any tertiary education institution. i ABSTRACT Modernised online music libraries and services provide effortless access to unlimited music collections. When contending with other competitors, online music developers have to devise interesting, fun, and easy‐to‐use interaction methods for their users to browse for music. The conventional way of browsing a music collection is by going through a text list of songs by song title or artist name. This method may not be sufficient to maintain an overview of the music collection. Users will end up searching for the same artist that they are familiar with, and will not be able to discover other new and interesting songs that are available in the music collection. There are many ways of browsing songs in an online music library. In the field of Music Information Retrieval (MIR), various types of visual variables such as colour, position, size, and shape have been investigated when representing music data. Texture is also one of the visual variables. However, to the best of our knowledge, there is no research focusing explicitly on texture. Mood of music is one of the essential cues used for music exploration.

  • Cognitive and Affective Judgements of Syncopated Musical Themes
    RESEARCH ARTICLE ADVANCES IN COGNITIVE PSYCHOLOGY Cognitive and affective judgements of syncopated musical themes Peter E. Keller1 and Emery Schubert2 1 Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences, Germany 2 School of English, Media and Performing Arts, University of New South Wales, Australia ABSTRACT This study investigated cognitive and emotional effects ofsyncopation , a feature of musical rhythm that produces expectancy violations in the listener by emphasising weak temporal locations and de-emphasising strong locations in metric structure. Stimuli consisting of pairs of unsyncopated and syncopated musical phrases were rated by 35 musicians for perceived complexity, enjoyment, happiness, arousal, and tension. Overall, syncopated patterns were more enjoyed, and rated as happier, than unsyncopated patterns, while differences in perceived tension were unreliable. Complexity and arousal ratings were asymmetric by serial order, increasing when patterns moved KEYWORDS from unsyncopated to syncopated, but not significantly changing when order was reversed.T hese results suggest that syncopation influences emotional valence (positively), and that while synco- syncopation, serial pated rhythms are objectively more complex than unsyncopated rhythms, this difference is more asymmetry, affective salient when complexity increases than when it decreases. It is proposed that composers and im- response, cognition, provisers may exploit this asymmetry in perceived complexity by favoring formal structures that rhythm, emotion, progress from rhythmically simple to complex, as can be observed in the initial sections of musical musical form forms such as theme and variations.

  • Perceptions of Meaningfulness Among High School Instrumental
    Perceptions of Meaningfulness Among High School Instrumental Musicians by Janet Cape A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Musical Arts Approved January 2012 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee: Sandra Stauffer, Chair Jeffrey Bush Margaret Schmidt Jill Sullivan Evan Tobias ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY May 2012 ABSTRACT The purpose of this multiple case study was to investigate what students in three high school music groups perceived as most meaningful about their participation. I also examined the role that context played in shaping students’ perceptions, and sought potential principles underlying meaning and value in instrumental ensembles. Over the course of six months I conducted a series of in-depth, semi- structured interviews with six student wind ensemble members, five student guitar class members, and six jazz band members at three high schools in Winnipeg, Canada. I interviewed the participants’ music teachers and school principals, observed rehearsals and performances, and spoke informally with parents and peers. Drawing upon praxial and place philosophies, I examined students’ experiences within the context of each music group, and looked for themes across the three groups. What students perceived to be meaningful about their participation was multifaceted and related to fundamental human concerns. Students valued opportunities to achieve, to form and strengthen relationships, to construct identities as individuals and group members, to express themselves and communicate with others, and to engage with and through music. Although these dimensions were common to students in all three groups, students experienced and made sense of them differently, and thus experienced meaningful participation in multiple, variegated ways.

  • A Test of an Auditory Motion Hypothesis for Continuous and Discrete Sounds Moving in Pitch Space
    A TEST OF AN AUDITORY MOTION HYPOTHESIS FOR CONTINUOUS AND DISCRETE SOUNDS MOVING IN PITCH SPACE Molly J. Henry A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2011 Committee: J. Devin McAuley, Advisor Rodney M. Gabel Graduate Faculty Representative Jennifer Z. Gillespie Dale S. Klopfer ii ABSTRACT J. Devin McAuley, Advisor Ten experiments tested an auditory motion hypothesis, which proposes that regular pitch- time trajectories facilitate perception of and attention to auditory stimuli; on this view, listeners are assumed to use velocity information (pitch change per unit time) to generate expectations about the future time course of continuous and discrete sounds moving in pitch space. Toward this end, two sets of experiments were conducted. In six experiments reported in Part I of this dissertation, listeners judged the duration or pitch change of a continuous or discrete comparison stimulus relative to a standard, where the comparison’s velocity varied on each trial relative to the fixed standard velocity. Results indicate that expectations generated based on velocity information led to distortions in perceived duration and pitch change of continuous stimuli that were consistent with the auditory motion hypothesis; specifically, when comparison velocity was relatively fast, duration was overestimated and pitch change was underestimated. Moreover, when comparison velocity was relatively slow, duration was underestimated and pitch change was overestimated. On the other hand, no perceptual distortions were observed for discrete stimuli, consistent with the idea that velocity information is less clearly conveyed, or easier to ignore, for discrete auditory stimuli.
