Jack Elliott reviews Thursday 26 March 2015 Rating: ★★★☆☆ It has been 3 years since the Queen of Pop’s last contribution to music. 2012’s MDNA exposed a solid musical direction that suggests Madonna’s character and target audience have changed far less than pop culture itself. Despite a turbulent release due to demo leaks, ‘Rebel Heart’ was finally released in full on the 6th March and finally answered the questions that many had about the album. Opening with ‘Living For Love’, the album starts exactly where MDNA left off. The album’s flagship track boasts a steady dance tempo and electronic production that will be appreciated by fans. The inclusion of heavily compressed piano chords and gospel singers here will transport you to an EDM church rave and http://nouse.co.uk/2015/03/26/album-review-madonna-rebel-heart Archived 11 Dec 2018 09:28:15 Nouse Web Archives Album Review: Madonna – Rebel Heart Page 2 of 3 you’ll probably love it. Five tracks following ‘Living For Love’ were released a few months ahead of the album and offered a deep look into some of the musical ideas of the album. ‘Devil Pray’ will take you to a sandy ditch in a deserted ghost town and will introduce you to the darker lyrical side of Rebel Heart. Right after, songs like ‘Unapologetic Bitch’ begin building up the pace, lightening up the mood, and provide the essential gimickey tracks for her hardcore fans. Naturally, Madonna’s called in a few favours from her famous friends and managed to get herself some rather exclusive collaborations under her belt. Namely ‘Bitch I’m Madonna’ featuring Nicki Minaj. Despite being presented as another gimmick track, a solid dose of rap adds diversity to the album and spices things up just as they may have seemed to be getting boring. Traditional filler tracks are rare with Rebel Heart as each song has a confident theme and concept underlying the music and presents the LP as being extremely intelligently thought out. ‘Joan Of Arc’ is an example of a more upbeat track from the album with the lyrical content to back up its unarguably pretentious name and is surprisingly listenable. ‘HeartBreakCity’s choral backing vocals and massive drums will take you back to church and it isn’t an unlistenable song, but does break up the positive build that you thought the album would have been structured around. The standard edition of Rebel Heart ends with ‘Wash All Over Me’, a lyrically powerful, yet vulnerable ending to the album that could be interpreted as a track celebrating triumph or defeat. It is up to you to interpret it as you wish. Rebel Heart sounds like what MDNA was presented to be when it toured with swinging incense pots and priest. Although it’s not the most listenable Madonna album on the planet, it is intelligent and because of this it has lived up to many’s expectations. However now Rebel Heart is released, it raises the question of just where Madonna will take her music next? Most Read Discussed 1. Review: Little Mix – LM5 2.

    NO ME WITHOUT YOU Thesis Submitted to The College of Arts and Sciences of the UNIVERSITY OF DAYTON In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree of Master of Arts in English By Sandra E. Riley, M.Ed UNIVERSITY OF DAYTON Dayton, Ohio August 2017 NO ME WITHOUT YOU Name: Riley, Sandra Elizabeth APPROVED BY: ____________________________________ PJ Carlisle, Ph.D Advisor, H.W. Martin Post Doc Fellow ____________________________________ Andrew Slade, Ph.D Department Chair, Reader #1 ____________________________________ Bryan Bardine, Ph.D Associate Professor of English, Reader #2 ii ABSTRACT NO ME WITHOUT YOU Name: Riley, Sandra Elizabeth University of Dayton Advisor: Dr. PJ Carlisle This novel is an exploration of the narrator‟s grief as she undertakes a quest to understand the reasons for her sister‟s suicide. Through this grieving process, the heroine must confront old family traumas and negotiate ways of coping with these ugly truths. It is a novel about family secrets, trauma, addiction, mental illness, and ultimately, resilience. iii Dedicated to JLH iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Thank you to my earliest reader at the University of Dayton—Dr. Meredith Doench, whose encouragement compelled me to keep writing, despite early frustrations in the drafting process. Thank you to Professor Al Carrillo—our initial conversations gave me the courage to keep writing, and convinced me that I did in fact have the makings of a novel. Thank you to Dr. Andy Slade, who has been gracious and accommodating throughout my journey to the MA, and to Dr. PJ Carlisle, who not only agreed to be my thesis advisor her last semester at UD, but gave me the direction and input I needed while understanding my vision for No Me Without You.

  • 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.

Dabei soll ebenfalls festgehalten werden, welchen Kriterien eine Musikproduktion gerecht werden sollte, damit sie vom Zuhörer als dynamisch klingend empfunden wird und welches Potential die Dynamic Range besitzt dem Loudness War entgegenzuwirken. Hierfür wurden die Dynamic Ranges von insgesamt 5269 Musikti- teln aus dem Zeitraum von 1982 bis 2017 bestimmt. This study contains a current tendency of the Loudness War which deals with the ques- tion in which way a louder and more compressed production impacts the dynamic of a song. The main focus of this study is to give an advice, which criteria should be fulfilled that music reaches an audience in a dynamic way and to show whether the Dynamic Range has got the potential to lead the Loudness War to an end.

  • A Call from the Dark
    A Call from the Dark Adam Deverell 1 How to Get Ready for Work in Half an Hour ’ve never been very good at getting up early on Saturday mornings. I’m usually wasted I after frying my brain all week at school and Dad never stirs unless he’s working, so there’s not much incentive. I used to drag myself up, get a bowl of cereal and hop back into bed, watch music videos and then go back to sleep for a couple of hours. Those awesome mornings have long gone. I wish I hadn’t taken them for granted, cause who knows if I’ll ever get to sleep in again? Things have changed. I have to get up for work now, and since I walked to work I had to leave way too early. That didn’t mean I get up when I should though. I always leave it as late as possible. So, on the weekend that my life took a serious plunge down the toilet, I woke up at nine after forgetting to set my alarm, leaving me only half an hour to get ready. Unlike what I was about to go through, this was something I could handle easily. First, I made sure I had the fastest shower possible. That’s difficult. I love long, hot showers, washing my blonde hair slowly and rhythmically, just letting the steam clear my head and the soap wash all over me. It’s probably the most peaceful part of the day. Then, standing at the kitchen counter, I ate my cereal as fast as I could.
