    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.

  • ITALIAN BOWIE Tutto Di David Bowie in Italia E Visto Dall'italia INTRODUZIONE
    Davide Riccio ITALIAN BOWIE Tutto di David Bowie in Italia e visto dall'Italia INTRODUZIONE Bowie ascoltava la musica italiana? Ogni nazione avrebbe voluto avere i propri Elvis, i propri Beatles, i propri Rolling Stones, il proprio Bob Dylan o il proprio "dio del rock" David Bowie, giusto per fare qualche nome: fare cioè propri i più grandi tra i grandi della storia del rock. O incoronarne in patria un degno corrispettivo. I paesi che non siano britannici o statunitensi perciò di loro lingua franca mondiale sono tuttavia fuori dal gioco: il rock è innanzi tutto un fatto di lingua inglese. Non basta evidentemente cantare in inglese senza essere inglesi, irlandesi o statunitensi et similia per uguagliare in popolarità internazionale gli originari o gli oriundi ed entrare di diritto nella storia internazionale del rock. A volte poi, pur appartenendo alla stessa lingua inglese, il cercarne o crearne un corrispettivo è operazione comunque inutile ai fini del fare o non fare la storia del rock, oltre che un fatto assai discutibile, così come avvenne a esempio negli States in piena Beatlemania con i Monkees, giusto per citare un gruppo nel quale cantava un certo David o Davy Jones, lo stesso che - per evitare omonimia e confusione - portò David Robert Jones, ispirandosi al soldato Jim Bowie e al suo particolare coltello, il cosiddetto Bowie knife, ad attribuirsi un nome d'arte: David Bowie. I Monkees nacquero nel 1965 su idea del produttore discografico Don Kirshner per essere la risposta rivale (anzitutto commerciale) americana ai Beatles, quindi i Beatles americani o gli anti-Beatles.

The AAIM system makes no attempt to generate new materials in one particular style, nor to act as an autonomous improviser. Instead, the goal of the AAIM sys- tem is to facilitate improvisation through the variation and manipulation of composed materials entered by the user. By generating these variations algorithmically, the system gives improvisers of computer music the ability to focus on macro elements of their performances, such as form, phrasing, texture, spatialisation, and timbre, while still enabling them to incorporate the rhythmic and melodic variations of a virtuosic instrumental improviser.

  • Vintagekeysxf Manual
    DCP PRODUCTIONS' OWNER'S MANUAL I n t r o d u c t i o n Thank you for purchasing the “Vintage Keys” sound library for the Yamaha Motif XF. This sound library contains 128 voices and 1 user arpeggio which is required for use with one of the voices. The library does not use any new samples, and therefore can be loaded directly to a “stock” Motif XF (no optional flashboard required). “Vintage Keys” was the second DCP Productions sound library made for the Yamaha Motif series synthesizer/workstations – dating all the way back to 2003 and the original Motif “Classic”. This, the “XF” version, represents a considerable leap forward from the Motif Classic and ES-series versions, and includes significant re-workings of the original voices, as well as a large number of brand new voices. Additional research into the keyboards and synths emulated, plus extensive use of the new features in the Motif XF (such as assignable switches, 8 element architecture, key-off triggering, etc.) result in what is the most comprehensive and authentic collection of vintage keyboard and synth sounds ever created for any Yamaha workstation. The library is divided into two groups of 64 voices each. The first group (A1 to D16) consists of electric pianos, clavinets and other “keyboard” sounds. The second group (E1 to H16) consists of classic “synthesizer “sounds. By "vintage", we refer to keyboards and synthesizers built before 1987. It would be impossible to include emulations of every electric keyboard or synth ever built. For that reason, this collection largely contains emulations of what could more or less be considered the "greatest hits" of vintage keys - the Rhodes and Wurlitzer electric pianos, the Hohner clavinet, Yamaha CP70, Yamaha FM synthesizers, the Moog Minimoog and Memorymoog, ARP Odyssey and 2600, Sequential Prophet 5 and T8, Oberheim OB synths, and Roland Jupiter/Juno synths, with the occasional “honorable mention” synth such as the Korg Polysix and EMS Synthi AKS.

  • CINTA EN REVERSO Primera Parte Discusión Sobre El Concepto Generador
    CINTA EN REVERSO Primera Parte Discusión sobre el concepto generador ¿Qué es música electrónica? “We do not play music we play programming” 1 La definición de música electrónica presenta una serie de puntos controversiales, que hoy en día dificultan la elaboración de un concepto único. En la búsqueda de una definición coherente, se puede encontrar de acuerdo a algunas de las opiniones emitidas por los entrevistados, y por las referencias investigadas lo siguiente: Julio d’Escrivan nos define: (d’Escrivan, 2007) Música Electrónica incluyendo acusmática, mixta (electrónica + instrumentos), improvisación electrónica, electrónica experimental y música algorítmica. La música electrónica es aquella hecha utilizando tecnologías de audio analógica y/o digital, donde este elemento es una clave estética de la obra. Según Ricardo Teruel: (Teruel, 2007) yo siempre he dicho que la música electrónica es un recurso, no una definición de estilo ni mucho menos…pero prefiero definirla como música con medios electrónicos, dentro de cualquier cosa, estructuras sonoras que uno hace utilizando medios electrónicos y en general digamos, ahí sí, una distinción que es que si algo se puede hacer instrumental tiene poco sentido hacerlo electrónico y definir eso como música electrónica. Eso es más bien un arreglo o una versión de algún tipo con sonidos electrónicos. La definición de música electrónica según Ángel Rada: (Rada, 2007) Mira, mucha gente diría que es utilizar medios artificiales, pero música electrónica para mí es nada más el desarrollo de un electrón, ¿me entiendes? Una persona puede hacer música golpeando electrones, como este flamingo que golpeaba macetas…, yo considero que es hecha por un medio electrónico preciso, objeto que puede traducir bits o energía eléctrica.

  • Szabo Cleveland, Ohio
    Ambient Music as Popular Genre: Historiography, Interpretation, Critique Victor Louis Franco Szabo Cleveland, Ohio B.Mus., Music Theory, University of Michigan, 2007 B.A., Philosophy, University of Michigan, 2007 A Dissertation presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Music University of Virginia May, 2015 © Copyright by Victor Louis Franco Szabo All Rights Reserved May 2015 iii ABSTRACT In September 1978, Brian Eno coined the term “Ambient music” to describe a type of audio recording designed to create atmosphere. Ambient music, he proposed, should foster calm while registering doubt, and accommodate various different levels of listening attention. Since Eno’s proposal, Ambient music has become a genre of drone- and loop-based electronic music within the popular music market. This dissertation examines several key recordings in the formation of the Ambient genre of popular music, with focus on releases from the U.S. and England between the late 1960s and early 1990s. Through music analyses of these recordings, as well as media analyses of their promotional rhetoric, this dissertation traces the sonic tropes and social practices discursively organized by the “Ambient” label. It describes how Ambient music serves users as a means of relaxing, regulating mood, and fostering an atmosphere or sense of place. Unlike most extant accounts of the genre, it also explores how Ambient recordings reflect aesthetically upon their instrumentality through musical techniques, metaphors, and moods. A survey of approximately one-hundred Ambient listeners rounds out the study, illuminating from a diachronic perspective how reception practices relate to the production and interpretation of Ambient recordings.
