  • Sonic Youth: Celebrity DIY
    Essays — Peer Reviewed ZoneModa Journal. Vol. 7 (2017) https://doi.org/10.6092/issn.2611-0563/7585 ISSN 2611-0563 Sonic Youth: celebrity DIY Alice Militello Pubblicato: 29 dicembre 2017 Abstract In New York City’s early ’80s music scene and beyond, the band Sonic Youth represents a special case of the celebrity’s concept. It cannot be reduced to the record sales or scandals, like other famous people. They don’t have the typical self-destructive streak of the stars of the show business, which is the basis of the fortune and, at the same time, the defeat of other musicians. They don’t even have the cult of personality, which has destabilized other crews of the time. However Sonic Youth, during their three decades of career, have been able to find a space in the music scene, to involve a broad segment of audience and lovers; becoming a kind of model for younger generations of musicians. Furthermore, the members of Sonic Youthcan be considered such as influencers ahead of his time, thanks to their ability to find new talents. The present study aims to analyze the concept of celebrity applied to the Sonic Youth language, from 1981 (starting year) to 1994, the year of Experimental Jet Set, Trash No Star album, which brings the group to that DIY (Do-It-Yourself) punk ethics that denotes them from the beginning; to plot the New York’s environment in which they fit; and how the entry into the mainstream world changes the aesthetics of the group. In other words, the research is a breakthrough of the band’s long career, marking the highlights that made them the Sonic Youth.

    NEW RELEASE O N I N T U I T I O N R E C O R D S R E C E I V E D 4 G R A M M Y N O M I N A T I O N S OREGON’s latest project, Oregon In Moscow, is a double CD with the Moscow Tchaikovsky Symphony Orchestra, and the group’s recorded debut of their orchestral repertoire—a prodigious body of work that has been developing over the life of the band, but never documented. In the thirty-year history of OREGON, there has always existed a strong kinship to orchestral music. The use of the double reeds alone has given the quartet an identity and expansive sound associated with the symphonic orchestra. This association isn’t confined only to their use of many orchestral instruments, but applies also to the composition and presentation of the music, including the careful attention to details such as articulation, dynamics, phrasing and tone production derived from their respective classical studies. Chief composer Ralph Towner explains, “OREGON came together as a group in New York City in 1970, and from the outset it was clear that our unusual instrumentation and collective musical experience invited a different approach to composition and improvisation. The jazz tradition of improvisation usually consists of the soloists taking turns improvising on the song’s harmonic structure, recycling the chord progressions and returning to the original melody only on the last repeat of the cycle. While still using and honoring this tradition, we began composing longer, more sectional forms that allowed each soloist to improvise on different material within the context of a single piece.

    Issue 76 JANUARY 14TH, 2019 Welcome to Copper #76! ---here we are, halfway through January already, and I guess I'll find out if January actually exists without the mania of CES. I've attended since 1989, I'm done. My favorite newsflash so far has been that an autonomous car ran over an autonomous robot.... But we're here, and blessedly flu-free...so: Larry Schenbeck continues his look at musical storytellers---vocal ones, this time; we're revisiting Dan Schwartz's piece on Steve Reich; Richard Murison tries his hand at haiku---and some ku are hai-er than others; Jay Jay French brings us the second of two stories about meeting John & Yoko; Roy Hall tells his uncommonly-touching story of citizenship; Anne E. Johnson does double duty, with a look at lesser-known cuts from Richie Havens, as well as a Something Old/Something New review of new recordings of not one but two composers named Praetorius; Christian James Hand deconstructs REM's "It's the End of the World..."; and I obsess yet again about CES, and continue with a look at the audio segment of the amazing business empire of Sherman Fairchild. Industry News continues the never-ending story of---well, guess who. No, it's a different guess who than last issue's guess who. Sheesh! Our friend Fred Schwartz wonders what we'd hear in a certain situation; and we're pleased to have the first contribution from Jeremy Kipnis, writing about his illustrious ancestor, operatic bass Alexander Kipnis. Copper #76 wraps up with a scratchy sound from Charles Rodrigues, and a Parting Shot all the way from Argentina.

  • 1 Sonic Youth's Debut Album, Their Acclaimed And
    1 SONIC YOUTH’S DEBUT ALBUM, THEIR ACCLAIMED AND INFLUENTIAL CICCONE YOUTH PROJECT AND THURSTON MOORE’S ONLY SOLO ALBUM ALL FINALLY REMASTERED AND REISSUED AFTER MORE THAN A DECADE With a new Sonic Youth studio album expected later this year, three of the most daring, innovative and compelling soundvisions in modern music--Sonic Youth’s landmark 1982 debut album, its legendary twisted pop opus under the pseudonym Ciccone Youth and band member Thurston Moore’s sole solo album--are back. Sonic Youth (with bonus tracks) is being reissued for the first time since 1987, Ciccone Youth’s 1989 The Whitey Album for the first time since 1995 and Moore’s 1995 Psychic Hearts for the very first time. All three will be reissued by Geffen/UMe on March 14, 2006. Sonic Youth expands the original groundbreaking five-song mini-album (“The Burning Spear,” “I Dreamed I Dream,” “She Is Not Alone,” “I Don’t Want To Push It” and “The Good And The Bad”) with seven earlier tracks recorded live in September 1981 (“Hard Work,” “Where The Red Fern Grows,” “The Burning Spear,” “Cosmopolitan Girl,” “Loud And Soft,” “Destroyer” and “She Is Not Alone”) plus a pre-album demo recording of “I Dreamed I Dream” (in it’s earlier guise as “Where The Red Fern Grows”) from October 1981. As a part of the Post-Punk/No Wave movement, and raised on punk and experimental music, Sonic Youth had formed earlier that year and recorded the album with Moore on guitar and vocals, Kim Gordon on bass, guitar and vocals, Lee Ranaldo on guitar and vocals, and Richard Edson on drums.
