  • Valon Synty Suomalaiset Musiikkilehdet Osana Rockmuusikko Ville Valon Tähteyden Rakentumista 1997–2010
    TAMPEREEN YLIOPISTO Maiju Karhunen Valon synty Suomalaiset musiikkilehdet osana rockmuusikko Ville Valon tähteyden rakentumista 1997–2010 Tiedotusopin pro gradu -tutkielma Maaliskuu 2013 TAMPEREEN YLIOPISTO Viestinnän, median ja teatterin yksikkö KARHUNEN, MAIJU: Valon synty. Suomalaiset musiikkilehdet osana rockmuusikko Ville Valon tähteyden rakentumista 1997–2010 Pro gradu -tutkielma, 114 s., 6 liites. (liite vain painetussa versiossa) Tiedotusoppi Maaliskuu 2013 Suomessa on ainoastaan kourallinen todellisia rocktähtiä. HIM-yhtyeen keulakuva Ville Valo on yksi heistä. Pro gradu -tutkielmani tarkoituksena on selvittää, miten suomalaiset musiikkilehdet ovat osallistuneet rocktähti Ville Valon tähtikuvan rakentumiseen lehtijuttujensa välityksellä. Valon tähtikuvan rakentumista tarkastelen suhteessa alan tutkimukseen ja kirjallisuuteen. Selvitän tutkielmani avulla myös hieman Valon suhdetta musiikkilehtien toimittajiin ja pohdin samalla, mitä Valo-tapaus kertoo suomalaisesta musiikkijournalismista. Päädyin tarkastelemaan Valon tähtikuvan rakentumista juuri musiikkilehdissä muun muassa, koska on loogista tutkia muusikon tähtikuvan muodostumista juuri musiikkilehdissä. Mukana tutkimuksessani on yhteensä viisi suomalaista musiikkilehteä: Inferno, Rumba, Rytmi, Soundi ja Sue. Tutkielmani teoriaosuus koostuu niin tähteyttä kuin musiikkijournalismia käsittelevästä kirjallisuudesta, sillä tutkimusaiheeni kannalta juuri tähteys ja musiikkijournalismi ovat ydinroolissa. Tutkimusmenetelminä tutkielmassani käytän määrällistä analyysia ja diskurssianalyysia.

  • Him Album Discography Download Free Volume One
    him album discography download free Volume One. She is actress Zooey Deschanel; Him is alt-singer/songwriter M. Ward. The two met on the set of a movie, found some musical common ground, and began working together. Volume One is the resulting album and it's one of the better albums made recently by a movie star, male or female. Good enough, in fact, that it even heads off the obligatory suspicions that she only got to make a record because she was a Hollywood star. After a few spins of the album, one could make a compelling case that Deschanel could quit her day job, or at least justifiably call herself an actress/musician. The common ground that the duo explores on Volume One is a sweet place where light-'60s pop meets strummy country tunes and candy-coated folk, a mythical meeting place between Sandie Shaw and Tammy Wynette with cameos by Richard & Linda Thompson. Deschanel's songs are simple and sad tales of heartbreak and missed connections, with hooky melodies and not a single artless moment to be found. For sure, there's not a single instance that sounds like she got the gig because of who she is instead of what she can do. Even if her songs were weak, her strong, assured vocals would carry the day. Sweet and rich with no annoying folky warble, she can croon ("Take It Back"), cry ("Sentimental Heart"), be playful (the bubblegum snappy "I Was Made for You"), or just sweep you off your feet with sweetness ("Sweet Darlin'," which she co-wrote with another artist who overcomes his Hollywood roots, Jason Schwartzman).

  • Rock Album Discography Last Up-Date: September 27Th, 2021
    Rock Album Discography Last up-date: September 27th, 2021 Rock Album Discography “Music was my first love, and it will be my last” was the first line of the virteous song “Music” on the album “Rebel”, which was produced by Alan Parson, sung by John Miles, and released I n 1976. From my point of view, there is no other citation, which more properly expresses the emotional impact of music to human beings. People come and go, but music remains forever, since acoustic waves are not bound to matter like monuments, paintings, or sculptures. In contrast, music as sound in general is transmitted by matter vibrations and can be reproduced independent of space and time. In this way, music is able to connect humans from the earliest high cultures to people of our present societies all over the world. Music is indeed a universal language and likely not restricted to our planetary society. The importance of music to the human society is also underlined by the Voyager mission: Both Voyager spacecrafts, which were launched at August 20th and September 05th, 1977, are bound for the stars, now, after their visits to the outer planets of our solar system (mission status: https://voyager.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/status/). They carry a gold- plated copper phonograph record, which comprises 90 minutes of music selected from all cultures next to sounds, spoken messages, and images from our planet Earth. There is rather little hope that any extraterrestrial form of life will ever come along the Voyager spacecrafts. But if this is yet going to happen they are likely able to understand the sound of music from these records at least.

  • A Year in the Life of Bottle the Curmudgeon What You Are About to Read Is the Book of the Blog of the Facebook Project I Started When My Dad Died in 2019
    A Year in the Life of Bottle the Curmudgeon What you are about to read is the book of the blog of the Facebook project I started when my dad died in 2019. It also happens to be many more things: a diary, a commentary on contemporaneous events, a series of stories, lectures, and diatribes on politics, religion, art, business, philosophy, and pop culture, all in the mostly daily publishing of 365 essays, ostensibly about an album, but really just what spewed from my brain while listening to an album. I finished the last essay on June 19, 2020 and began putting it into book from. The hyperlinked but typo rich version of these essays is available at: https://albumsforeternity.blogspot.com/ Thank you for reading, I hope you find it enjoyable, possibly even entertaining. bottleofbeef.com exists, why not give it a visit?

Unless you’re being a jerk. © Bottle of Beef 2020, all rights reserved. Welcome to my record collection. This is a book about my love of listening to albums. It started off as a nightly perusal of my dad's record collection (which sadly became mine) on my personal Facebook page. Over the ensuing months it became quite an enjoyable process of simply ranting about what I think is a real art form, the album. It exists in three forms: nightly posts on Facebook, a chronologically maintained blog that is still ongoing (though less frequent), and now this book.

Tarkoitukseni oli suunnitella Heartagramin imagoa heijastava nykypäivän rock- ja rullalautailukult- tuuriin sopiva tuote. Brandiin tutustuin analysoimalla HIM-yhtyeen tuotantoa ja Bam Margeran vaikutusta brandin imagoon. Suunnittelun päätavoite oli tuottaa visuaalisesti haluttava ja helppokäyttöinen ran- nekello. Otin suunnittelussani huomioon myös valmistukseen vaikuttavia tekijöitä, jotta tuote olisi myöhemmin helposti saatettavissa tuotantoon asti. Halusin opin- näytetyölläni antaa esimerkin siitä, mitä muotoilu voi tarjota musiikin oheistuotteiden alueella. Opinnäytetyöni yhteistyöhenkilönä toimi HIM-yhtyeen manageri Seppo Vesterinen.

    SIGNIFICANCE OF ALBUM COVER ART AS A BRANDING TOOL CASE STUDY: ‘HIM’ TEPPO HUDSON APRIL 2006 A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED AS A REQUIREMENT FOR THE DEGREE OF BA (HONS) ARTS MANAGEMENT FACULTY OF ARTS AND HUMAN SCIENCES LONDON SOUTH BANK UNIVERSITY BA (Hons) Arts Management ­ 1 ­ ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS For a long time, I’ve been wondering the answer for the topic of this research. Along the road there have been numerous people supporting and shaping my life. Thank you all. The successful completion of this project can be traced back to these extraordinary people’s help: First of all I want to thank Suzy Kerr Pertic for the guidance throughout this project. She and all the BA (Hons) Arts Management lecturers deserve my gratitude for enabling me to become what I want to be. There are no words to describe how thankful I am. Secondly I want to express my gratitude to the interviewees Asko Kallonen and Jessi Frey. Especially Ms. Frey and rest of Velcra for being my family. Those countless hours on the road and on stage prepared me well for these studies. A grand bow for my biological family – mom, dad and sister. I should have said thank you more often during these years but I am glad that your support never diminished. Finally Shara Kim Moradi. Thank you for those long talks and midnight debates. Without your criticism, teaching of focused thinking and how to speak in short sentences I would not be who I am today. Your beautiful mind shall mark my words: we will change the world.
