26-29 January 2013 Cannes, France 26 - 29 January 2013 Cannes, France PRESS RELEASE MADNESS, ARCHIVE, C2C, LOU DOILLON, ASAF AVIDAN, BALTHAZAR AND BIRDY HUNT TO PERFORM AT SECOND MIDEM FESTIVAL IN CANNES “PLAY MIDEM LIVE 2013” COMPETITION TO PLACE NEW TALENT ON THE MIDEM FESTIVAL STAGE Paris, Wednesday 14 November 2012 – midem announces today the second edition of the live music midem festival, featuring an international roster of acclaimed headliners and a one- of-a-kind competition allowing the public to vote for emerging artists and get them to perform in front of the midem global audience. As part of the midem tradeshow (26-29 January 2013) and organised by Reed MIDEM, the midem festival will take place every night from Saturday 26 to Monday 28 January on the Palais des Festivals’ esplanade, in Cannes, France. Following the success of its inaugural edition and sponsored by Opel ADAM, the 2013 programme of the midem festival will present ten concerts over three nights at the heart of the world’s largest music market. Performed inside a specially built Magic Mirrors venue and in front of an audience of both international music professionals and general music fans, each concert programme will be preceded by a happy hour networking event with DJ sets between 6.30pm and 8.00pm. Registered midem participants will have access to every concert and invitations are available for the general public through the City of Cannes, midem’s media partners (Les Inrockuptibles, Infoconcert...) and on midemfestival.com. The midem festival 2013 talent line-up includes, on Saturday 26 January, the world-renowned British band Madness, who recently performed at the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee concert and at the Olympic Games closing ceremony and who’s new album Oui Oui, Si Si, Ja Ja, Da Da was just released this week through Cooking Vinyl/Atmosphériques. Also playing that night, the Israeli singer-songwriter and musician, Asaf Avidan, often referred to as "the lovechild of Dylan and Joplin" because of his exceptionally strong voice. Avidan’s new solo album, Different Pulses, is set to be released internationally through Polydor/Universal on January 28th, right in the middle of midem. Playing on Sunday 27 January, the internationally-acclaimed French electro/urban music quartet, C2C, ranked #1 at the DMC World DJ Championships four times in a row (2003-2006). Creating an original blend of electro, soul and hip-hop moods and using turntables as a bona fide musical instrument, C2C’s first album, Tetra, was released last September and their DJ battles reached over seven million views on YouTube. The winner of the midem 2013 official soundtrack competition and praised French pop/rock sextet, Birdy Hunt, will take the midem stage that same night, after proving their skills on British stages and at the biggest festivals in France, including Rock en Seine and the Printemps de Bourges. On Monday 28 January, London/Paris/Brighton-based collective Archive will present their new album With Us Until You’re Dead. Part-orchestral, part-electronic, part-soulful, part-progressive, the album is said to touch tangents with Massive Attack, Radiohead, UNKLE, Secret Machines and Pink Floyd. Long-time 30 year-old actress and model Lou Doillon comes to Cannes with her first and celebrated album Places. The half-sister of Charlotte Gainsbourg and daughter of British singer Jane Birkin and French film director Jacques Doillon is musically produced by French star- singer Etienne Daho and music studios wizard Zdar. Also playing that night, Balthazar is one of Belgium's most promising indie rock outfits, whose new album, Rats, has recently been released through Pias. The band’s powerful mix of extremes — furious and rhythmic, silent and attractive, precise and enchanting — is often compared to the work of its elders Absynthe Minded, dEUS or Soulwax/2manydj’s. Through a partnership between midem and Indaba Music, the new and worldwide Play midem Live 2013 competition invites musicians and bands to submit an original song and gives them the exclusive opportunity to perform on the midem festival stage next to international headliners. The competition’s call for entry is open until Monday 19 November and the public will listen to the submitted tracks and vote for the two best bands through Indaba from Tuesday 20 until Friday 30 November 2012. Through midemfestival.com, midem is the launching partner of Bandpage Connect, a new service especially built for musicians to facilitate the access and integration — either as extensions or raw API data — of the musician’s Bandpage content on other platforms. The ADAM, Opel's new fashionable urban car, has chosen midem as the music partner to boost and associate the brand to the music world. As such, Opel ADAM will be one of the main sponsors of the midem festival 2013 and will hold several street marketing events. If you wish to register for midem as a journalist, please click here.

This phenomenon questions the coexistence of different languages within local music practices. In this article, I argue that we cannot fully understand this issue without addressing the sacred dimension of language in popular music, which entails two aspects: 1) the transitory experience of an ideal that challenges intelligibility, and 2) the entanglement with social norms and institutions. Further to which, I compare Latin hegemony during the Middle Ages and the contemporary French popular music, where English and French coexist in a context marked by globalisation and ubiquitous digital technologies.

Conviviality and parties are a Parisian way of life. From cafes to innovative clubs, from legendary cabarets to gardens that are open throughout the night, Paris has something for everyone to enjoy in an ever-growing diversely cultural milieu. Paris City Hall helps the city’s nightlife scene to find new event spaces, such as basements and the city’s former ‘petite ceinture’ railway line, to continue to promote nightlife that is varied, open-spirited, and benevolent.’ Frédéric Hocquard, Deputy Mayor of Paris, in charge of Nightlife and Cultural Economy NIGHT & DAY PARIS FESTIVE 2 → Press file 2018 – Paris Convention and Visitors Bureau EDITORIAL BY THE AUTHORS This file on Festive Paris: Night & Day aims to show you just what a great place to party Paris is in the 21st century. 2018 is a year full of challenges for partying in Paris. Parisian nightlife is ever-changing. It is being reinvented and shaken up by new projects for night owls and party people. Nightlife is now more than ever for those in the know. The night has become multi-faceted, itinerant, and scattered, partly due to land constraints. Many capital cities have lost their music venues to residential developments. As Paris is resistant to ‘giga clubs’, partying is developing beyond the city’s ring road and being enjoyed by people in the Greater Paris area.

  • Mckrell 1 Teddy Mckrell Professor Sonevytsky Music, Sexuality
    McKrell 1 Teddy McKrell Professor Sonevytsky Music, Sexuality & Gender 2 June 2018 Standing Next To Me The Last Shadow Puppets are a rock supergroup fronted by Alex Turner of the Arctic Monkeys and Miles Kane. They released their first album The Age of the Understatement in ​ 2008, then went back to their respective projects before getting back together in 2016 to release Everything You’ve Come to Expect. While there was not much of a tour for their first album, they ​ performed together a few times in the interim, and their 2016 album had a much more aggressive tour schedule. Over the course of their recent album’s promotion and subsequent tour, Miles and Alex played up what British GQ and NME both termed “a certain bromance” in entirely different articles, playing off the title of a song from the Arctic Monkeys’ first album (Lynskey 2016; Perry 2016). At times, Miles and Alex’s interactions seem like the joke these publications assume it to be; often in interviews it feels as if the two are egging each other on. However, in live performance their interactions tend to take on a different tone, one that oscillates between moments that are clearly staged, even choreographed, and more spontaneous moments that feel sincerely intimate. Neither Miles nor Alex has actually said anything official regarding their sexuality, so it is entirely possible for one or both to be a member of the LGBT community. However, it is also possible that both are heterosexual men who have never felt the need to publicly identify as such.

  • Sonic Blooms in Taipei
    TAIPEI TIMES MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 1 , 2 0 0 8 PAGE 1 3 [ THE WEEKENDER ] Sonic blooms in Taipei BY DAVId CHen AND DIane BAKer STAFF REPORTErs ianist Hiromi Uehara and her three-piece ensemble Sonicbloom performed for a rapt audience last Thurs- P day at the National Concert Hall in Taipei, in an intense, imaginative show that spanned jazz, funk, and classical music. Being in Taipei revived strong memories for the 29-year- old Japanese musician, who said at a press conference the day before the show that her first-ever public performance was in Taipei at the Sun Yat Sen Memorial Hall (國父紀念館) when she was 12. Uehara started the evening with a short piano solo in 1920s stride-style, which immediately broke into a fusion jazz rendition of Softly as in a Morning Sunrise. Images of the moon and stars were projected onto the curtains behind the band, which set the mood for the aptly-titled Time Travel. In this challenging but engaging tune, Uehara’s spacy synthesizer sounds and Dave Fiuczynski’s electric guitar riffs built oblique melodic themes around shifting rhythms. Uehara often sounds like she’s trying to squeeze as many notes as she can in one phrase, yet her playing still manages to sound lyrical and soulful, as it did in the band’s rendition of the Duke Ellington classic Caravan. Her playing has a light, joyful quality, even at rapid speeds. At times she sounded like she was playing cartoon chase scenes; other times her melody lines were so astonishingly frantic, you could hear people in Musician Juliana Hatfield at home in Cambridge, Massachusetts, Aug.
