By William Goodman 5.29.08 6:55 PM The Stills After teasing us with a promising set at this past fall's Pop Montreal festival, Canadian quintet the Stills have finally revealed their much-anticipated third record: Oceans Will Rise, the follow-up to 2006's sophomore set Without Feathers, will flood North America Aug. 19 via the band's new label home, Arts&Crafts. According to vocalist Tim Fletcher, the group felt "a raw energy of inspiration" during the new album's recording efforts that was absent in previous sessions; whether or not it was powerful enough to generate the kind of fire seen in the "Snake-Charming the Masses" music video is yet unconfirmed.

Sure, it may have you feeling life is looking pretty grim as you contemplate how it's high time humanity quit choking itself to death on its wealth of snake oils while it continues to idle at consumption junction, but you just might smile because perhaps it's a sign that the angst- infused post-punk sound of The Stills is back. Following up their acclaimed post-punk 2003 debut Logic Will Break Your Heart with a grand shift to the 2006 heartland-rock effort Without Feathers, many fans felt betrayed. This time it appears from the early Internet release of the tracks “Rooibos/Palm Wine Drunkard”, “Being Here” and the video release “Snake-charming the Masses” that the band has returned to a much-loved angrier sound.

The band's third release, due out Aug. 19, is called Oceans Will Rise and is their first for tastemaker label Arts & Crafts (Stars, Broken Social Scene). Preview tracks indicate the band is still in rock mode, a departure from its beautifully moody debut Logic Will Break Your Heart.

    ACTIVITY REPORT 2014-15 10TH ANNIVERSARY PROJECT ELAN celebrated its 10th anniversary in 2014 and received project funding from the Government of Canada through the Department of Canadian Heritage for a number of special activities. The first was to feature trailblazers in building Quebec’s current dynamic English- language arts community from the sparsely populated, marginal scene of the 1970s and 80s. Three panel discussions were presented in collaboration with POP Montreal and Expozine: The Montreal Formula: Thinking outside the box for survival in Montreal arts (POP Montreal) with Albert Nerenberg (host; filmmaker and laughologist), Murray Lightburn (the Dears), Krista Muir (Lederhosen Lucil), and visual artist J.C. Little; Literary Legacies: A Montreal Story (POP Montreal) with host Katia Grubisic (writer and translator), Linda Leith, founder of Blue Metropolis Foundation, and Marianne Ackerman, founder of the bilingual theatre company Theatre 1774 and Rover Arts; and Montreal Blooming: From Backwater to Music Hotbed (Expozine) with Howard Bilerman (legendary Montreal producer, former drummer for Arcade Fire), Kevin Komoda (Rational Youth), Ryhna Thompson (Envision Management), and musician Molly Sweeney. For our 10th anniversary year, ELAN co-produced Schmoozers with partners from each of the major artistic disciplines: April in collaboration with the Quebec Writers' Federation; June in collaboration with the St-Ambroise Montreal International Fringe Festival; October in collaboration with the Montreal Film Group; and December at McGill's Schulich School of Music, with a focus on students. Eastern Bloc was selected as the venue for ELAN's 10th anniversary event because it is a well- equipped visual and media arts centre. A photo retrospective of ELAN's 10-year history was projected on one wall while the Wonderwall, created at three stations where guests were photographed as they arrived, was projected on another.

  • The Creative Economy and the English Speaking Communities in Quebec
    The Creative Economy and the English Speaking Communities in Quebec REPORT SUBMITTED TO INDUSTRY CANADA BY TRACY ZHANG, PH.D.(SIMONE DE BEAUVOIR INSTITUTE, CONCORDIA UNIVERSITY), WITH AN ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY PREPARED BY AURELIA ROMAN, M.A. ON BEHALF OF THE QUEBEC ENGLISH - SPEAKING COMMUNITIES RESEARCH NETWORK (QUESCREN) QUESCREN is a joint initiative of the Canadian Institute for Research on Linguistic Minorities and Concordia University's School of Extended Learning MONTREAL, 2012-03-31 The Creative Economy and English-speaking Communities in Quebec EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Creative Economy and English-Speaking Communities in Quebec presents preliminary research results based on a focus group, private key informant interviews, and bibliographical research. It demonstrates that the concepts of the creative economy are useful in charting cultural and economic development for the English-speaking communities in Quebec (ESCQ). The English-speaking population in Quebec forms the largest provincial Official Language Minority Community in Canada. In recent decades, the composition of this population has become increasingly complex and multicultural. Parallel to this demographic shift, the influence of English-language Quebec culture has also evolved. English-speakers are said to have a high participation rate in the arts, culture and heritage sectors. In this context, organizations from these sectors are increasingly involved in supporting the socioeconomic development of the ESCQ. This report reflects growing concerns on the part of representatives of some of these organizations who participated in the study over how to apply the creative economy theory to generate effective models of cultural-economic development for the ESCQ. Due to the preliminary nature of the research involved in this study, coupled with the range of understandings about the creative economy reflected in the participants' comments and our annotated bibliography, the report does not recommend a single definition of "creative economy".

PITCH Going home was never an option for single mother Lena Mahikan (Cara Gee). But when her 13-year-old, Peeka (Shay Eyre) overdoses in the streets of Toronto, she is forced to return home to her estranged mother and face a life-long legacy of shame and resentment. Empire of Dirt is a story about second chances and summoning the power of family to soothe the pain of cyclical damage. SHORT SYNOPSIS As in many Native families, Lena Mahikan (Cara Gee) grew up in the cycle of abuse. Her father, a residential school survivor, was an alcoholic until he killed himself when Lena was 10. Her mother, only 14 years her senior, turned to the slots and was consumed. By the time Lena was 15, she was pregnant and, before giving birth, was kicked to the curb by her mom. For 13 years Lena has been living, poverty stricken in Toronto, struggling to make ends meet, being chased by her own demons.

    Inside Out: The Internationalization of the Canadian Independent Recording Sector Richard Sutherland Mount Royal University AbStRAct This article examines the growing internationalization of English Canada’s in - dependent sound recording sector, largely defined by Canadian ownership. Although Canada’s music industry has had considerable links with the global music business for decades, the in - dependent sector remained focused on the production of recordings by Canadian artists for sale in the domestic market. Recently, the links between Canadian music and Canadian- owned record companies have weakened, such that each is less reliant on the other. The article discusses the ways in which this dissociation has occurred within the context of the transformation of the global music industry over the past 15 years and considers the impli - cations for future Canadian music industry policy. KeywoRdS Sound recording policy; Globalization; Electronic culture RÉSUMÉ Cet article examine l’internationalisation croissante du secteur d’enregistrement sonore indépendant au Canada anglais (secteur caractérisé par le fait d’avoir des propriétaires canadiens). L’industrie de la musique canadienne a depuis des décennies noué de nombreux liens avec l’industrie mondiale, mais le secteur indépendant s’est concentré sur la production d’artistes canadiens pour le marché canadien. Récemment, cependant, les liens entre musique canadienne et compagnies de disques appartenant à des Canadiens se sont affaiblis, de manière à ce que l’un dépende moins de l’autre. Cet article commente les manières dont cette dissociation a eu lieu au cours des quinze dernières années dans le contexte de transformations mondiales de l’industrie de la musique et considère les conséquences pour l’avenir de politiques relatives à la musique au Canada.

    FA Annual 2013 – 2014 C T OR Repor t We acknowledge the financial support of the Government of Canada through the Department of Canadian Heritage Canada Music Fund and of Canada's Private Radio Broadcasters. 2 Message From the Chair We are extremely FACTOR 2013–2014 FACTOR proud of the role we play in supporting Canadian musical artists Message From the Chair 3 After serving on FACTOR’s Board of Directors for the past six years, it is with pride that I write my last message as Chair. It is remarkable to think how much FACTOR has changed since I first became involved with the organization. Over this time, FACTOR has made a number of important improvements and transforma- tional changes in the way it administers funding for the Canadian independent music industry. These include efforts to build staff expertise to ensure consistent, fair and transparent funding; to develop a res- ponsible investment strategy for surplus funding that ensures long-term 2013–2014 FACTOR funding stability; the modernization of our application processes and client services with investments in digital infrastructure; and, most importantly, a re-design of our programs to better reflect how the industry is monetizing recorded music and to ensure investments are made in areas where they will have the greatest potential to be com- mercially meaningful. FACTOR’s ability to successfully navigate the dramatic changes shaping the Canadian independent music industry is due in large part to the stable funding it receives from the public-private partnership shared between Canada’s private radio broadcasters and the Government of Canada through the Department of Canadian Heritage.
