A La Sombra Del Entrenador na “rabona” en un partido de futbol es una manera distinta de patear el balón. Algo original, nuevo, único. Un relám- pago inesperado. Una liebre que salta de repente detrás de una mata. Una buena noticia que sorprende gratamente. UNuestros “apuntes” quieren ser una rabona en el periodismo deportivo. Informar, formar y entretener creando belleza ¿por qué divorciar estas dimensiones que en la realidad están juntas? Es posible una mirada nueva, joven y provocativa, sobre el viejo y maravilloso tema del deporte. Decía André Maurois: “lo bello es aquello que es inteligible sin reflexión”. Decía Pablo Neruda en su poema “Verbo”: “voy a arru- gar esta palabra, voy a torcerla, sí, es demasiado lisa, es como si un gran perro o un gran río le hubieran repasado lengua o agua duran- te muchos años… quiero palabras ásperas como piedras vírgenes.” “Apuntes” no son ni un tweet, ni un tratado acabado. Son un sabroso “tente en pie” en el camino de la vida, en el que algo aprendes y te deja un buen sabor de boca. “Rabona”. Etimológicamente se dice del animal que no tiene rabo o que lo tiene más corto que lo normal. Familiarmente se dice de la prenda de vestir que queda corta. En el futbol se dice del artista que patea el balón cruzando el pie: es un derroche de estilo y eficiencia. directorio Director General ditorial Pedro González M.

  • Neil Davidge
    Neil Davidge COMPOSER As co-writer and key sonic facilitator on the lauded Massive Attack albums Mezzanine, 100th Window and Heligoland, Bristol, England's Neil Davidge has been integral in birthing some of the most arresting and innovative sounds of the Nineties and Noughties. He has also enjoyed a parallel career composing for Film and Television. His early venture into the world of film scoring included The Storm That Brought You To Me, from Louis Leterrier's 2010 fantasy film Clash Of the Titans, and his co-write score for Trouble The Water, a moving study of Hurricane Katrina victims that won the ‘Best Documentary’ gong at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival. Following that, Neil won over an entirely new audience in 2012 with Microsoft / 343 Industries - the company behind famed multi-million-selling franchise Halo - who commissioned him to write the score for the quantum leap in fun-filled alien slaughter that is Halo 4. The soundtrack went on to sell over 90,000 albums, 120,000 downloads and was the highest charting game soundtrack ever in the US billboard charts. The stellar success of Halo 4 resulted in further movie score work including the 2014 Henrik Ruben Genz movie Good People starring Kate Hudson and James Franco, the Tom Green directed Monsters: Dark Continent, and the 2015 Canal Plus 10-part thriller TV series Spotless starring Mark Ruffalo, Michael Keaton and Rachel McAdams. In 2017 Neil scored several highly coveted BBC1 dramas including the Anthony Horowitz TV series New Blood, the BBC four-part drama In The Dark, and new 2018 Jim Sturgess/ Agyness Deyne pre-apocalyptic thrilled Hard Sun.

  • Massive Attack's First Album Was a “Record of Rebellion, Its Chin Smugly
    Massive Attack’s first album was a “record of rebellion, its chin smugly forward; its noncommittal cross-racial dynamic a thumbed nose at the British popular culture that still retained the trace of racial and social cultural divisions.” Wheaton, R.J. (2011) DUMMY, London: Continuum International Publishing Group, p. 219. Why is Blue Lines such a culturally important record? There is an irony not to be overlooked in the fact that whilst Blue Lines was celebrated as the dance album of the 90s its creators exploded all boundaries and stylistic paradigms attached to the very genre of dance music. As Grant Marshall, aka Daddy G, explained in an interview with NME: “we’re outside of categories and that’s because where we come from.”1 The sensory beauty of this record relates to the authenticity in which Massive Attack reflect the cultural, social, racial, economic, political and geographic circumstances of their own backgrounds. As I will outline, this masterpiece is connected to its geographic location; its sonic texture and expressions not to be understood without knowing the relevant historic context of urban life in the 80s and early 90s of England; Thatcher’s neoliberalism, emerging social and political struggles as well as the impact of punk and hip-hop and their associated rebellious attitudes. 1 Kessler, 1998, THIS is THE STORY OF THE BLUES, NME, London: IPC Specialist Group, Issue April 11th, p. 33 1 I Benno Schlachter 2013 © Blue Lines, amongst other things, is a sonic answer to the history of its birthplace, the city of Bristol. As one of the biggest British perpetrators and profiteers of the slave trade consequently inherited a racist atmosphere to a city with a huge African-Caribbean population.

Esperanza Miyake Lancaster University, 2007 ABSTRACT This thesis seeks to understand the relationship between music and sexuality within the context of urban lesbian and gay music and music-making practices. Theoretically, I am mainly informed by queer musicology, popular music studies, cultural and subcultural studies, and the sociology of music. Building upon existing queer and feminist understandings of music and sexuality, I problematise both the conflation of sexuality and gender in music, and the conceptualisation of sexuality as part of an erotic exchange in music.

  • First Acts Announced for Melt Festival 2010 Submitted By: Global Publicity Friday, 19 February 2010
    First Acts Announced for Melt Festival 2010 Submitted by: Global Publicity Friday, 19 February 2010 Snow and ice still hold us in a wintry spell, so we try to escape by daydreaming about summer. And summer equals festival season and Melt! (http://www.meltfestival.com) is what summer stands for! 'The Dirty Dozen' is history and we proudly present the first confirmations for the 13th edition of Melt!Festival (http://www.meltfestival.com) at the wonderful and unique Ferropolis festival site, set against a breathtaking backdrop of five huge hulking coal mining diggers that tower into the sky. We almost shed a tear on getting this confirmation: The grandmasters of TripHop, Massive Attack, will get the huge diggers at the "City of Iron" to vibrate under the influence of their bass-heavy Bristol sound. As another high-calibre headliner, we are very proud to announce The XX. Rest assured that the aesthetic overall concept of the British trio fits perfectly into the Melt! scenery. Booka Shade will present their new album 'More!' at Melt! and they promise that 'There will be a lot of physical action and sweat on the stage'. Not only new bands will join us in Ferropolis this year. We are also glad to announce some new and strong partners. Bench is our new headline-sponsor and Warsteiner is our new beer-partner. What else? Look forward with us to another British act: The Wombats have booked their tickets to Ferropolis and are presenting their new album. Foals catch up on last years' cancelled gig, OstGut Ton presents the sound of Berghain & Panoramabar, Audiolith Pferdemarkt will be functioning as the official Melt! opening on Thursday, Meltselektor Stage curated by Modeselektor, Blood Red Shoes return to Ferropolis, Video-icon Chris Cunningham in Germany for the first time and exclusively, Techno-legends Carl Craig feat.
