Begräbnis-Pop Und Die Heilige Stromgitarre Begräbnis-Pop und die heilige Stromgitarre Musik | Toms Plattencheck »Es war entsetzlich kalt; es schneite, und der Abend dunkelte bereits; es war der letzte Abend im Jahre, Silvesterabend. In dieser Kälte und in dieser Finsternis ging auf der Straße ein kleines, armes Mädchen mit bloßem Kopfe und nackten Füßen.« So beginnt die märchenhafte Kurzerzählung ›Das kleine Mädchen mit den Schwefelhölzern‹ von Hans-Christian Andersen. Und wo bleibt jetzt die Musik? Von TOM ASAM An eine musikalische Umsetzung des 1845 entstandenen Werks wagen sich die schwedische Musikerin und Sängerin Anna von Hausswolf und ihr Landsmann Matti Bye, gemeinsam: Hydras Dream. Bye ist erfolgreicher Filmmusiker (Soundtracks zu ›Fargo‹ oder nun zur Verfilmung des Bestsellers ›Der Hundertjährige, der aus dem Fenster…‹). Schon bei Hausswolfs Solo-Platten taten sich durchwegs begeisterte Kritiker schwer, das Gehörte zu beschreiben. Die Künstlerin selbst nannte ihr Tun einmal »Funeral pop«. Das sagt nicht viel aus, klingt aber gut und ist auch für ›The little match girl‹ nicht unpassend, handelt es sich bei dem Märchen doch um die Schilderung eines tragischen Erfrierungstodes. ›Hydras Dream‹ versuchen die surreale, düstere Schilderung in erster Linie durch Improvisation zu beschreiben, wobei sie sich der Wiederholung von musikalischen Mustern bedienen. Irgendwo zwischen Neo- Klassik, Ambient und einer ganz eigenen Art von Dream Pop entsteht ein sehr eigenständiges Werk, in dem Hausswolfs magische Stimme pointiert eingesetzt wird. Das Album soll in fast unglaublich kurzen drei Tagen geschrieben und aufgenommen worden sein, der Hörer wird deutlich länger davon fasziniert sein. Eine Band, die sich auf die 60’s bezieht und mit einem Yardbirds-Song aufwartet. Da geht schnell die Bluesrock-Alarmglocke an, vor dem inneren Auge ziehen bärtige Männer im sogenannten besten Alter vorbei, die sich in Mehrzweckhallen in Kreisstädten die Beine in die Bierwampe stehen und über Lieblings-Klampfer und Gitarrenverstärker diskutieren. Weiß man, dass die Bands um die es hier geht, Coogans Bluff, aus dem hohen Nordosten der Republik kommt, versucht man sich die Begräbnis-Pop und die heilige Stromgitarre Mehrzweckhallen in Brandenburg oder Meckpomm vorzustellen, wozu einem im Süden der Republik womöglich schon die Namen potenzieller Kreisstädte nicht einfallen wollen. Was aber auch alles völlig egal ist. Denn erstens spielen Coogans Bluff nach ihrem vierten Album längst erfolgreich in der ganzen Republik und darüber hinaus (in renommierten Live-Clubs), und – wichtiger – ist das alles andere als Gitarren-Gegniedel für Ewiggestrige. Natürlich besinnen sich Coogans Bluff, wie so viele andere, auf bewährte Kost, aber sie sind in der Lage, eigene Rezepte auszuprobieren bzw. frische Zutaten zu verwenden. Entscheidend: Diese Musiker haben erkannt, dass es Ende der 60er Bands gab, die wie selbstverständlich verschiedene Stile miteinander verbanden. Auf ›Gettin‘ Dizzy‹ hören wir Rock, der sich selbstverständlich auf Blues bezieht, der zudem psychedelische wie jazzige Konnotationen findet, ohne dabei Funk, Folk und Country aus den Augen zu verlieren. Zu einer tollen Rhythmussektion gesellt sich hier nicht nur die heilige Stromgitarre, die hin und wieder auch zu ihrem Feedback-Ausritt kommt (ohne, dass das überbetont wird), sondern auch mehrstimmige Bläsersätze, Chöre oder ein Mellotron. Man höre und staune etwa bei ›Money & Mess‹, wie Gitarrenpower und Saxophon / Trompete schön zusammenkommen. Coogans Bluff rocken, haben Sinn für unkitschige musikalische Schnörkel und dazu auch noch ein Gespür für Hooklines und Melodien. Könnte fast eine der schier endlosen Reinkarnationen der ewig tollen Norweger Motorpsycho sein. Ach ja: Das Yarbirds-Cover ist ›Heart full of soul‹ – und weiß ebenso zu gefallen! Alle Jahre wieder fragt man sich, ob das ewige 80s-Revival, das unglaublich viele Teile der Musik- und Modewelt schon so lange bestimmt, auch mal aufhört. Jüngere Jahrgänge können ja gar keine Zeit zwischen den 80s und ihrer Wiederauferstehung erinnern. Logischerweise müssten den 80er Jahren ja die 90er folgen. In Ausschnitten passiert das durchaus, aber mehr als ein äußerstes Nischendasein bleibt etwa Grunge-Revival-Kapellen kaum. Etwas deutlicher auf dem Radar sind vielleicht Versuche, den Trip Hop aus seligen Bristol-Zeiten aufleben zu lassen. Das macht auch Produzent und Songwriter Neil Davidge; das heißt, er ist seinen Vorlieben wohl einfach treu geblieben. Schließlich ist dieser Mann selbst aus Bristol und hat tatsächlich auch den Sound von Vorzeigeband Massive Attack von ›Mezzanine‹ bis hin zu ›Heligoland‹ mitgeprägt; bei Letzterem hat er gar einen Großteil der Songs mitgeschrieben. Nach langen Jahren im Hintergrund (auch als erfolgreicher Soundtrack-Komponist) veröffentlicht Davidge nun tatsächlich mit ›Slo Light‹ sein erstes eigenes Album, auf dem ihm zahlreiche GastsängerInnen zur Seite stehen. Der titelgebende Opener führt die New Yorkerin Stephonik Youth ein und führt gleich mal Richtung Downbeat und Massive Attack-Wurzeln. ›Sleep Walking‹ (feat. Emi Green) verneigt sich hingegen eher vor John Barry und den nicht minder wunderbaren Portishead. Barry wiederum huldigt mit seinem Projekt Beak übrigens dem guten alten Krautrock, ein Einfluss der ebenfalls auf ›Slo light‹ hinzukommt – etwa auf ›Gallant Foxes‹ (feat. Cate Le Bon), das ebenso Freak-Folk-Bezüge aufweist. Bei einigen düster-schönen Stücken fühlt man sich dann wiederum eher an die Glanzzeiten des 4AD Labels und Bands wie Dead Can Dance, erinnert. ›Slo Light‹ ist ein blitzsauber durcharrangiertes und produziertes Album, das wie ein Bewerbungsmäppchen für Begräbnis-Pop und die heilige Stromgitarre weitere potenzielle Auftraggeber Davidge’s wirkt. Seine Solokarriere wird er vermutlich nicht mit der höchsten Priorität versehen; um wirklich aufzufallen, fehlen dem wirklich gelungenen Scheibchen vielleicht auch die Überraschungsmomente und nach vorne weisenden Ideen. Bereits vor Jahresfrist an dieser Stelle empfehlen konnte ich das Album ›Kokoyinaka‹ der in Ghana geborenen Schweizerin Joy Frempong aka OY. Das erfrischende Stück Musik, das Electronica, eingängig-fröhlichen Pop und afrikanische Elemente perfekt vereint, taucht nun noch einmal in etwas veränderter Form neu auf. Drei Songs wurden ausgetauscht, die Tracklist etwas umgestaltet und der Titel verändert. Der Hintergrund: OY hat nun einen Plattendeal mit dem renommierten belgischen Label Crammed Disc, was dem tollen Album nun hoffentlich zur verdienten Aufmerksamkeit verhilft. Die Idee zu ›No Problem Saloon‹, wie es nun heißt, entstand übrigens auf diversen Reisen durch Mali, Burkina Faso, Ghana und Südafrika, auf denen OY nicht nur inspirierende Menschen und Geschichten traf, sondern auch O-Töne per Field Recording sammelte. In einem Berliner Studio, in dem das Album in Zusammenarbeit mit Schlagzeuger und Produzent Lleluja-Ha vollendet wurde, wurde dann schon mal eine zuknallende Taxitür zum »Schlagzeug«, eine ratternde Waschmaschine zum Bass-Sound. Ebenfalls erst ein paar Monate her ist die Veröffentlichung Smoke von Dapayk & Padberg. Die Tracks zeigten sich stellenweise eher neblig-düster als verraucht. Zwischen poppigem House und Dubstep-Anklängen fand das Duo einen Weg, Beats und Vocals gekonnt in Einklang zu bringen. Nun gibt es die ›Smoke Family Remixes‹, wobei 9 der 14 Tracks eine Bearbeitung durch Labelkollegen bei Mo’s Ferry erfuhren. Die Ausrichtung ist klar: Die leicht düsteren Zwischentöne verschwanden weitgehend, die Tracks sind in den Remix-Varianten straighter und deutlich mehr Richtung Clubtauglichkeit gestrickt. Das verträumte ›Dance in your Flame‹ kommt in der Bearbeitung von Douglas Greed in einem fluffig-leichten Flow, aus dem ursprünglich melancholisch angehauchten ›Now words‹ wird ein Club-Stampfer. Von ›Gingembre‹ hören wir sogar drei verschiedene interessante Remix-Varianten, von Begräbnis-Pop und die heilige Stromgitarre denen die von Sebastian Russel heraussticht. Insgesamt eine nette Ergänzung, die Smoke natürlich nicht ersetzt, denn das Ausgangsmaterial funktioniert als komplettes Album einfach besser. | TOM ASAM Titelangaben Hydras Dream: The little match girl – Denovali Records / Cargo Coogans Bluff: Gettin‘ dizzy – Noisolution Davidge: Slo light – 7Hz Recordings/ Alive OY: No problem saloon – Crammed Disc / Indigo/Pias Dapayk & Padberg: Smoke family remixes – Mo’s Ferry Prod. /WordandSound/RTD/Finetunes.

  • Neil Davidge
    Neil Davidge COMPOSER As co-writer and key sonic facilitator on the lauded Massive Attack albums Mezzanine, 100th Window and Heligoland, Bristol, England's Neil Davidge has been integral in birthing some of the most arresting and innovative sounds of the Nineties and Noughties. He has also enjoyed a parallel career composing for Film and Television. His early venture into the world of film scoring included The Storm That Brought You To Me, from Louis Leterrier's 2010 fantasy film Clash Of the Titans, and his co-write score for Trouble The Water, a moving study of Hurricane Katrina victims that won the ‘Best Documentary’ gong at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival. Following that, Neil won over an entirely new audience in 2012 with Microsoft / 343 Industries - the company behind famed multi-million-selling franchise Halo - who commissioned him to write the score for the quantum leap in fun-filled alien slaughter that is Halo 4. The soundtrack went on to sell over 90,000 albums, 120,000 downloads and was the highest charting game soundtrack ever in the US billboard charts. The stellar success of Halo 4 resulted in further movie score work including the 2014 Henrik Ruben Genz movie Good People starring Kate Hudson and James Franco, the Tom Green directed Monsters: Dark Continent, and the 2015 Canal Plus 10-part thriller TV series Spotless starring Mark Ruffalo, Michael Keaton and Rachel McAdams. In 2017 Neil scored several highly coveted BBC1 dramas including the Anthony Horowitz TV series New Blood, the BBC four-part drama In The Dark, and new 2018 Jim Sturgess/ Agyness Deyne pre-apocalyptic thrilled Hard Sun.

  • Latent Possibilities of the Tonal System Grammar and Historical Usage
    Latent Possibilities of the Tonal System Grammar and Historical Usage Vishnu Bachani Spring 2018 New York University Advisors: Louis Karchin and Michael Beckerman 2 Preface While music is an art, with all that that implies, music theory is a rigorously logical structure…The goal of music theory is to provide a description of materials and procedures used in musical discourse of the repertoire under study, to accurately resolve compositions into their component parts and demonstrate their internal relationships, and to provide procedures for the creation of new compositions. – Marshall Tuttle, Harmony (forthcoming). What is music? How does it work? Why does it work? These questions (among others) motivate the academic disciplines of music theory, musicology, music psychology, and music cognition, and they served as the impetus for my undergraduate studies in music. They remain at the heart of this culminating thesis, which attempts to de- obfuscate a particular subset of the mechanics underlying the vast corpus of tonal music. Music is sound organized in time. The principles which underlie this organization vary from culture to culture, from epoch to epoch, and from genre to genre. The goal of this thesis is threefold: 1. To examine the grammatical principles of one particular system of musical organization (tonality). 2. To expound the logical consequences of these axiomatic principles. 3. To demonstrate the exploitation of these principles (and their logical extensions) to create music across several cultures, centuries, and genres. No attempt is made to exhaustively answer the questions opening this preface; indeed, the numerous factors that comprise the construction, performance, and idiosyncratic experience of music are almost tautologically inexhaustible: To strive overly for simplicity in analysis is to forget that even the simplest four-bar phrase in Mozart is made up of acoustical and psychological relationships that, if all were recounted, would stagger the mind.
