  • The Big Day) – Hopefully More Well-Received Than Chance the Rapper’S Ill-Conceived Paean to Loving His Wife by Kenji Shimizu
    Festivus 2020: TBD (The Big Day) – Hopefully More Well-Received than Chance the Rapper’s Ill-Conceived Paean to Loving His Wife by Kenji Shimizu Note to players: Two answers required. 1. ​After declaring “I like my rock and roll all the same,” the singer declares that he doesn’t “give a fuck” if he does either of these two actions in “Back to the Motor League” by Propagandhi. Kurgan quotes a line mentioning these two actions in a church scene in ​Highlander​, referencing a 1983 song’s spoken-word intro in which that line follows the gibberish phrase “Gunter glieben glauten globen.” In a 1979 album’s final track, the second half of a line about these two actions is replaced by the album’s title, (*) ​Rust Never Sleeps​. That line about these two actions is quoted at the beginning of Def Leppard’s “Rock of Ages” and in the closing statements of Kurt Cobain’s suicide note. For 10 points, the song “My My, Hey Hey (Out of the Blue)” by Neil Young declares that “it’s better to” do what action “than to” do what other action? ANSWER: ​burn out​ ​and ​fade away​ ​[accept “​It’s better to burn out than​ ​to ​fade away​”] 2. ​In reference to a song titled after one of these people, the Martin guitar company embedded a coin into 73 limited-edition guitars to commemorate the victim of a September 1973 plane crash. The twist that Marie is the narrator’s six-year-old daughter is the final piece of information given to a person with this job in Chuck Berry’s “Memphis, Tennessee.” The words of a person with this job are juxtaposed with several excuses given by Mrs.

  • Leksykon Polskiej I Światowej Muzyki Elektronicznej
    Piotr Mulawka Leksykon polskiej i światowej muzyki elektronicznej „Zrealizowano w ramach programu stypendialnego Ministra Kultury i Dziedzictwa Narodowego-Kultura w sieci” Wydawca: Piotr Mulawka [email protected] © 2020 Wszelkie prawa zastrzeżone ISBN 978-83-943331-4-0 2 Przedmowa Muzyka elektroniczna narodziła się w latach 50-tych XX wieku, a do jej powstania przyczyniły się zdobycze techniki z końca XIX wieku m.in. telefon- pierwsze urządzenie służące do przesyłania dźwięków na odległość (Aleksander Graham Bell), fonograf- pierwsze urządzenie zapisujące dźwięk (Thomas Alv Edison 1877), gramofon (Emile Berliner 1887). Jak podają źródła, w 1948 roku francuski badacz, kompozytor, akustyk Pierre Schaeffer (1910-1995) nagrał za pomocą mikrofonu dźwięki naturalne m.in. (śpiew ptaków, hałas uliczny, rozmowy) i próbował je przekształcać. Tak powstała muzyka nazwana konkretną (fr. musigue concrete). W tym samym roku wyemitował w radiu „Koncert szumów”. Jego najważniejszą kompozycją okazał się utwór pt. „Symphonie pour un homme seul” z 1950 roku. W kolejnych latach muzykę konkretną łączono z muzyką tradycyjną. Oto pionierzy tego eksperymentu: John Cage i Yannis Xenakis. Muzyka konkretna pojawiła się w kompozycji Rogera Watersa. Utwór ten trafił na ścieżkę dźwiękową do filmu „The Body” (1970). Grupa Beaver and Krause wprowadziła muzykę konkretną do utworu „Walking Green Algae Blues” z albumu „In A Wild Sanctuary” (1970), a zespół Pink Floyd w „Animals” (1977). Pierwsze próby tworzenia muzyki elektronicznej miały miejsce w Darmstadt (w Niemczech) na Międzynarodowych Kursach Nowej Muzyki w 1950 roku. W 1951 roku powstało pierwsze studio muzyki elektronicznej przy Rozgłośni Radia Zachodnioniemieckiego w Kolonii (NWDR- Nordwestdeutscher Rundfunk). Tu tworzyli: H. Eimert (Glockenspiel 1953), K. Stockhausen (Elektronische Studie I, II-1951-1954), H.
