  • That Ain't Bad (The Main Single Off Tingles), the Band Are Drowned out by the Crowd Singing Along
    THAT AIN’T BAD A ZINE DEDICATED TO SYDNEY INDIE POP FROM THE EARLY 90’S BY ANDY PAINE INTROduction In the late 1980's and early 1990's, a group of bands emerged from Sydney who all played fuzzy distorted guitars juxtaposed with poppy melodies and harmonies. They released some wonderful music, had a brief period of remarkable mainstream success, and then faded from the memory of Australia's 'alternative' music world. I was too young to catch any of this music the first time around – by the time I heard any of these bands the 90’s were well and truly over. It's hard to say how I first heard or heard about the bands in this zine. As a teenage music nerd I devoured the history of music like a mechanical harvester ploughing through a field of vegetables - rarely pausing to stop and think, somethings were discarded, some kept with you. I discovered music in a haphazard way, not helped by living in a country town where there were few others who shared my passion for obscure bands and scenes. The internet was an incredible resource, but it was different back then too. There was no wikipedia, no youtube, no streaming, and slow dial-up speeds. Besides the net, the main ways my teenage self had access to alternative music was triple j and Saturday nights spent staying up watching guest programmers on rage. It was probably a mixture of all these that led to me discovering what I am, for the purposes of this zine, lumping together as "early 90's Sydney indie pop".

  • Pressemitteilung 08.03.2017 the Afghan
    FKP Scorpio Konzertproduktionen GmbH Große Elbstr. 277 a ∙ 22767 Hamburg Tel. (040) 853 88 888 ∙ www.fkpscorpio.com PRESSEMITTEILUNG 08.03.2017 THE AFGHAN WHIGS kommen im Sommer auf Tour Im Mai veröffentlichen THE AFGHAN WHIGS ihr neues Album „In Spades“, das in vielerlei Hinsicht außergewöhnlich ist. Einerseits ist es typisch für die Band, die in den 90ern übergroß damit wurde, die Lücke zwischen dem Midwestern-Punk von Die Kreuzen und Hüsker Dü, den psychedelischen Soul-Sinfonien der Temptations, der rohen Energie von Nirvana oder Mudhoney und den rockig- breiten Texturen von Led Zeppelin oder Lynyrd Skynyrd zu schließen. Auf der anderen Seite führt es die musikalischen Einfälle des letzten Albums „Do To The Beast“ weiter, das 2014 völlig überraschend und nach über anderthalb Dekaden Pause erschienen war. Was wiederum daran liegt, dass aus THE AFGHAN WHIGS eine veritable Band geworden ist. Das Line-up – Sänger und Gitarrist Greg Dulli, die Gitarristen Dave Rosser und Jon Skibic, Drummer Patrick Keeler, Multi-Instrumentalist Rick Nelson sowie Mitbegründer und Bassist John Curley – ist jetzt schon seit etlichen Jahren ziemlich konstant. Was bei den WHIGS, die in immer neuen Besetzungen zusammenkamen, recht erstaunlich ist, oder wie es Mastermind Dulli mal in einem Interview beschrieb: „Wir waren eine Band wie eine Seifenoper, Dramaqueens von höheren Weihen. Ständig haben wir uns aufgelöst und neu gegründet.“ Die Konstanz, die THE AFGHAN WHIGS jetzt erreicht hätten, führe zu einer besonderen internen Energie, die sich beim Schreiben und Aufnehmen ebenso äußere wie auf der Bühne. Aus der ehemaligen Blaupause für Alternative Rock, dem Schmelztiegel für Genres wie Post Punk, Grunge und Soul, hat sich seit der Wiedervereinigung eine unglaubliche, neue Band entwickelt.

    “You went there for the people and went there for the bands” The Sandringham Hotel – 1980 to 1998 Brendan Paul Smyly Doctor of Philosophy University of Western Sydney August 2010 2 Acknowledgements I offer thanks to my supervisors, principally Dr Diana Blom whose knowledge, good advise and enthusiasm for a broad array of topics was invaluable for the length of this study. To Dr Greg Noble, a serendipitous choice who provided great counsel at the oddest hours and introduced me to whole vistas of academic view, thank you. Also to Professor Michael Atherton who offered unwavering support (along with some choice gigs) over the years of my engagement with UWS, many thanks. I offer very special thanks to all my colleagues from the Music Department at UWS. Ian Stevenson and Dr Sally Macarthur, thank you for your faith and support. To John Encarnacao, who was also an interviewee for the project, your advice and enthusiasm for the project has been invaluable and saw me through some difficult months, as has your friendship, thank you. To Mitchell Hart, your knowledge and willingness to help with myriad tasks whenever asked is greatly appreciated. My time as a student in this department will be fondly remembered due to you people being there. Many thanks to the administrative staff of the School of Communication Arts, particularly Robin Mercer for candidature funding and travel advice, and Tracy Mills at the Office of Research Service for your prompt and valuable help. Above all, I wish to thank Darinca Blajic. Thank you for your unfailing love, support and wonderful food.

In re Determination of Rates and Terms for Docket No. 19-CRB-0005-WR Digital Performance of Sound Recordings (2021-2025) and Making of Ephemeral Copies to Facilitate those Performances (Web V) WRITTEN DIRECT TESTIMONY OF John Strohm President of Rounder Records September, 2019 Exhibit Page 1 of 13 I. Background and Qualifications 1. My name is John Strohm. Since 2017, I have been the President of Rounder Records. I am a 30-year veteran of the independent music community, including 10 years as a full- time working musician and another 10 as an artist-side lawyer. 2. I’m originally from Bloomington, Indiana. My love of music started young, and I grew up listening to a lot of great folk, blues, and jazz records (including a number of Rounder titles) with my dad. I began my music career playing drum set in Indiana’s punk rock scene. In 1985, when I was 18 years old, I left Indiana to attend Berklee College of Music in Boston. There, I switched my focus to the guitar and co-founded the alternative rock band Blake Babies with Juliana Hatfield and Freda Love. We released three full-length albums between 1987 and 1990, and toured in the U.S. and U.K. We later reunited in 2000 and our 2001 album God Bless the Blake Babies was released on the Rounder’s Zöe imprint.
