  • ​Diplo and Beck Confirmed for Northside
    Diplo 2017-12-01 09:59 CET Diplo and Beck confirmed for NorthSide Thundercat, Rhye, and Jimmy Eat World will also appear at next year's festival This year’s last round of announcements for NorthSide 2018 will significantly expand the festival’s musical spectrum and offer everything from baile funk and sophisticated electronica to fusion jazz and postmodern disco-funk. Over the last three years, Diplo has been unavoidable because of global megahits like “Lean On”, "Where Are Ü Now", and “Cold Water”. He has found chart success as a producer for M.I.A., Sia, and Beyoncé, as a member of Major Lazer and Jack Ü and as solo artist, and he is always highly ranked on DJ Mag's list of the world’s best dj’s. The productive producer’s unique take on baile funk has made its mark on charts throughout the world since the breakthrough with "Paper Planes", and as he himself put it a few years ago; Random White Dude Be Everywhere. This summer that will for the first time also include NorthSide. Diplo will play Saturday June 9th at NorthSide 2018 Earlier this year, the always unpredictable Beck released the album "Colors", which picked up the thread from the dance-friendly and fun album from 1999, “Midnite Vultures”. Through a long and ever changing career, he has sold millions of records, won Grammys, and impressed with masterpieces such as "Odelay" and most recently the understated "Morning Phase". But the acoustic guitar has taken the backseat on new songs like "Dreams" and "Wow" and the focus is now instead on getting people back on the dance floor.

  • Mto.04.10.4.W Everet
    Volume 10, Number 4, December 2004 Copyright © 2004 Society for Music Theory Walter Everett KEYWORDS: rock music, tonality, harmony, voice leading, Schenkerian analysis, modal theory, blues, popular music, Beck ABSTRACT: Despite frequently voiced assertions and their underlying presumptions, there is no single sort of tonal behavior common to all rock music, but rather a spectrum of approaches to scales, harmonic function and voice leading. This essay addresses the issue from two perspectives. The first suggests an array of six tonal systems ranging from the traditional major mode through modal (including minor-pentatonic) practices having increasing structural value, to chromatic relations with little basis in any deeper diatony. The second perspective studies the varied degrees of interaction between harmony and voice leading evidenced in samples of rock music from two historically opposed timeframes, the more homogeneous span of 1957–58 and the more radically experimental period of 1999–2000. Finally, Beck’s “Lonesome Tears” (2003) serves as a model for an analytical approach to one iconoclastic combination of voice leading and harmony. Received October 2004 [1] In its history now spanning half a century, rock music has found expression in dozens of styles and sub-styles, each characterized in part—sometimes in large part—by its own approach to a preexisting tonal system, or sometimes by its unveiling of a seemingly novel tonal system.(1) Of course there are many other musical and poetic traits of importance in marking style distinctions (including rhythm at surface, phrase, and sectional levels, tone color, performance practices such as phrasing, articulation, and dynamics, and recording techniques), but in this essay we will focus solely on matters of tonal structure, in hopes of addressing in a brief space an underlying context for the wide variety of systems that exist.

The concerts were historic on multiple levels, serving as the grand opening of San Francisco’s Chase Center, reuniting the band and Symphony for the first time since the 1999 performances captured on the Grammy-winning S&M album, and featuring the first-ever symphonic renditions of songs written and released since those original S&M shows. “S&M2 offers an inspired and eye-opening view into not just the shared heritage of classical music and heavy metal, but into the spirit of innovation and to endless vistas awaiting exploration.” - Louder “And it’s also of little surprise, especially for anyone who attended those increasingly legendary shows at Chase last year, that this new album is another major winner. What a great memento of such a monumental night in Bay Area live music history.” - The Mercury News “This collaboration between Metallica and the San Francisco Symphony brings to life the fusion of heavy metal and classical music. As it was in 1999, S&M2 is a grand celebration of the energy and magic that these forms of music convey.” – Metal Wani S&M2 is a landmark release in the Metallica catalogue, both sonically and visually.
