  • SST Defies Industry, Defines New Music
    Page 1 The San Diego Union-Tribune October 1, 1995 Sunday SST Defies Industry, Defines New Music By Daniel de Vise KNIGHT-RIDDER NEWSPAPERS DATELINE: LOS ALAMITOS, CALIF. Ten years ago, when SST Records spun at the creative center of rock music, founder Greg Ginn was living with six other people in a one-room rehearsal studio. SST music was whipping like a sonic cyclone through every college campus in the country. SST bands criss-crossed the nation, luring young people away from arenas and corporate rock like no other force since the dawn of punk. But Greg Ginn had no shower and no car. He lived on a few thousand dollars a year, and relied on public transportation. "The reality is not only different, it's extremely, shockingly different than what people imagine," Ginn said. "We basically had one place where we rehearsed and lived and worked." SST, based in the Los Angeles suburb of Los Alamitos, is the quintessential in- dependent record label. For 17 years it has existed squarely outside the corporate rock industry, releasing music and spoken-word performances by artists who are not much interested in making money. When an SST band grows restless for earnings or for broader success, it simply leaves the label. Founded in 1978 in Hermosa Beach, Calif., SST Records has arguably produced more great rock bands than any other label of its era. Black Flag, fast, loud and socially aware, was probably the world's first hardcore punk band. Sonic Youth, a blend of white noise and pop, is a contender for best alternative-rock band ever.

The offer was available for three months, after which the band released and commercialized the album, both digitally and in CD. In this paper, we use weekly music sales data in the US between 2004-2012 to examine the effect of Radiohead’s unorthodox strategy on the band’s al- bum sales. We find that Radiohead’s PYOP offer had no effect on the subsequent CD sales. Interestingly, it yielded higher digital album sales compared to a traditional release.

La sconvolgente crisi finanziaria scoppiata nel corso del 2008 negli Stati Uniti d’America, ha via via investito l’intera economia mondiale. In questo momento è necessario guardare in faccia ai pericoli cui è esposta la nostra società, senza sottovalutarne la gravità : ma senza lasciarcene impaurire. In questo momento di crisi bisogna essere lungimiranti ed impo- stare le premesse di un migliore futuro facendo leva sui punti di forza e sulle più vive energie di cui disponiamo. Ecco perché stiamo alacremente lavorando affinché l’irrealizzato ottimismo che ha prodotto lo scostamento di bilancio del nostro comune, quest’anno, trovi concretizzazione il prossimo anno. La situazione ci impone il massi- mo sforzo di concertazione tra i protagonisti della nostra economia, per definire lo sviluppo dei prossimi anni. Dobbiamo oggi ancor più che in passato favorire le imprese che vogliono insediarsi nel nostro comune e promuovere indirizzi nuovi per il progresso omune omune delle attività produttive con un occhio di riguardo, soprattutto, ma non solo, alle più avanzate tecnologie per l’energia e per l’ambiente.

  • 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.

South Central Los Angeles is de harde thuisbasis van een groep latinojongeren die, geheel in strijd met de hiphopcultuur van hun met gangs doorspekte buurt, strakke broeken dragen, naar punkrock luisteren en zich op opgevoerde skateboards verplaatsen. Gewelddadige confrontaties met deze hiphopminnende buurt vermijden is dan ook een dagelijkse bezigheid. Ze besluiten om tijdelijk te ontsnappen aan hun uitzichtloze omgeving en zetten koers richting Beverly Hills, met als doel het wereldberoemde ‘Nine Stairs’-skateboard- paradijs -dat ze enkel kennen van skatevideos- ten volle te beleven. Ook in de chique Beverly Hills-omge- ving vallen de gettojongens behoorlijk uit de toon. Een paar lokale meisjes voelen zich echter aangetrokken tot deze vreemde snuiters. Het leven lijkt hen even toe te lachen maar dat is buiten de agressieve rijkeluis- zoontjes gerekend die al vlug duidelijk maken dat hun aanwezigheid niet langer wordt geduld. De plaatse- lijke ultrarechtse flik doet ook een duit in het ‘onverdraagzame’ zakje en rekent de jongens in omdat ze nu eenmaal niet thuishoren in Beverly Hills. Er zit niets anders op dan te vluchten.

Spring Issue 1 Greetings from the Artistic Director… Happy New Year! The Morgan State University Opera Workshop is delighted that you are taking the time to read this newsletter and stay abreast of the progress, events, and development of our students. We have come a long way in the past seven years. When I first arrived at Morgan there was a small class run by the late Dr. Marilyn Thompson. The students were very enthusiatic and Dr. Thompson was very creative and committed to providing performance opportunities for the students. Our first class was made up of ten very enthusiatic students. Our first event was an evening of opera scenes by Mozart, Purell and Douglas Moore in fall 2004. We mounted our first fully-staged opera in spring 2005 with a production of Gian Carlo Menotti’s The Medium. This was the beginning of a new era of operatic performances here at Morgan. It was also the beginning of a great journey for our students.
