Daniel Is a Paris Born Composer Currently Living In Daniel is a Paris born composer currently living in Brooklyn who creates music that “blurs the ​ line between electronic and acoustic instrumentation and seemingly melt both elements into a greater organic whole.” (WNYC) He frequently collaborates with ​ ​ ensembles, artists, filmmakers and choreographers, bringing to life his vision for new music that connects the endless sonic possibilities of today's world with his classical compositional background. He has been called one of his generation’s “imaginative, skillful creators” ​ (New York Times) with work that is ”provocative and surprising” (NPR) and ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ “beautiful…original” (Pitchfork). ​ In 2015 the Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra / Liquid Music, MASS MoCA, the ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Baryshinikov Art Center and the Indianapolis Music of Art co­commissioned the creation ​ ​ ​ of Holographic, out on New Amsterdam Records in January 2016. Co­produced by Paul ​ ​ ​ ​ Corley (Oneohtrix Point Never, Ben Frost, Tim Hecker) the album will feature the Bang on a Can All­Stars, Mantra Percussion, Lucky Dragons, Mivos Quartet, Caroline Shaw (Roomful of Teeth), Olga Bell (Dirty Projectors) and Iktus Percussion. Recent and upcoming projects include a new work for string quartet and electronics commissioned by the German festival Donaueschinger Musiktage for the Calder Quartet; a ​ ​ ​ ​ new work for MOMA Ps1 featuring Caroline Shaw (Roomful of Teeth) and Olga Bell (Dirty Projectors); performances at the San Francisco Symphony Soundbox series, the Chicago ​ ​ ​ Symphony Orchestra's MusicNOW series; a commission from the Bang on a Can All­Stars ​ ​ through their People’s Commissioning Fund; a score for the surrealist indie film Elixir (a 2015 ​ ​ ​ Berlinale selection); Cycles, a full­length ballet score commissioned by Georgia Tech's Sonic ​ ​ ​ Generator ensemble and the GLO ATL dance company; and a film score for The Color of ​ Time, featuring James Franco, Jessica Chastain and Mila Kunis. In 2013 Daniel made his ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ New Amsterdam Records debut with Corps Exquis, a multi­media, chamber and electronics ​ ​ project created in conjunction with the TRANSIT new music ensemble and a collective of New York­based video artists. The album, featuring guest appearances by Julia Holter, Aaron Roche and So Percussion, garnered widespread critical acclaim and was voted best album ​ of 2013 by WNYC New Sounds listeners and included in NPR Music’s top 100 songs of ​ ​ 2013. Over the past few years, Daniel has worked with ensembles such as the American Symphony Orchestra, Albany Symphony Orchestra, Indianapolis Symphony, the Bang on a Can All­Stars, the Calder Quartet, eighth blackbird, Pittsburgh New Music Ensemble, California EAR Unit, New York Youth Symphony, So Percussion, among many others and collaborated with other artists such as Julia Holter, Laurel Halo, and Son Lux. His music has been heard ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ at venues such as Carnegie Hall and Webster Hall, Dia Beacon, Cincinnati Contemporary Art Center, Mass MoCA, Disney Hall’s REDCAT, the Chelsea Art Museum, MoMA, and MoMA PS1, Arsenal de Metz (France), Warhol Museum and on series including the MATA Festival, San Francisco Symphony (Soundbox), the Bang on a Can Marathon, Berlinale, the Ecstatic Music Festival, Rome Film Festival, River to River, Gaudeamus (Netherlands), Sacrum Profanum (Poland), NordKlang (Switzerland), as well as over media outlets such as NPR, PBS, WQXR, CANAL +, TFI and FRANCE 2. Daniel is also co­founder and co­curator for Sound / Source, an electroacoustic music festival held annually at MOMA Ps1. ​ ​ ​ Daniel’s work has received support from grants including New Music USA, Meet the Composer/Commissioning Music USA, the American Composers Forum / Jerome Foundation, C.A.P, the Barlow Endowment, MET Life Creative Connections, and the Brooklyn Arts Council as well as awards from the Finale National Composers Competition, the Carlsbad Music Festival, NY Youth Symphony First Commission, the Society for New Music, four ASCAP Morton Gould Young Composer Awards, Music Now, ASCAP Plus, NY Look & Listen, and Music IX among many others. Also active as an educator has taught courses in composition, orchestration, and theory at Sarah Lawrence College and at Yale and has given talks at NYU, The New School, Brooklyn College, NYFA, Juilliard, and Amherst. He holds degrees from the Yale School of Music, Bard College and the University of Michigan, studying with composers David Lang, Martin Bresnick, Joan Tower, Ingram Marshall, Aaron Kernis, Bright Sheng, and William Bolcom.

  • Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: an Analysis Into Graphic Design's
    Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres by Vivian Le A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems (Honors Scholar) Presented May 29, 2020 Commencement June 2020 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Vivian Le for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems presented on May 29, 2020. Title: Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres. Abstract approved:_____________________________________________________ Ryann Reynolds-McIlnay The rise of digital streaming has largely impacted the way the average listener consumes music. Consequentially, while the role of album art has evolved to meet the changes in music technology, it is hard to measure the effect of digital streaming on modern album art. This research seeks to determine whether or not graphic design still plays a role in marketing information about the music, such as its genre, to the consumer. It does so through two studies: 1. A computer visual analysis that measures color dominance of an image, and 2. A mixed-design lab experiment with volunteer participants who attempt to assess the genre of a given album. Findings from the first study show that color scheme models created from album samples cannot be used to predict the genre of an album. Further findings from the second theory show that consumers pay a significant amount of attention to album covers, enough to be able to correctly assess the genre of an album most of the time.

Rating: 8/10 | Genres: Indie Rock, Indie Pop. Review: "Father of the Bride" contains a masterpiece scattered around its 18 songs, quite few of them under 2 minutes and also few over 4. This is a rich record filled with things to listen to. Its genius is that it sounds content, like a victorious rallying cry among the band's most eclectic and pleasing sound yet, but still it hides Koenig's uncertainty and desperation. It is almost self-deprecating in a way. Now a grown house-man of sorts, Koenig woke up from the numbness of marriage and realizes he "got married in a gold rush".

His book, A Practical Guide to Choral Conducting, has received much critical acclaim.

  • Nytt Album Fra Dirty Projectors – "Lamp Lit Prose" Ute 13. Juli
    Foto: Jason Frank Rothenberg 03-05-2018 12:06 CEST Nytt album fra Dirty Projectors – "Lamp Lit Prose" ute 13. juli Dirty Projectors – "Lamp Lit Prose" Nytt album slippes 13. juli 2018 Produsenten, multi-instrumentalisten og vokalisten Dave Longstreth, den kreative hjernen bak Dirty Projectors, vender tilbake med albumet "Lamp Lit Prose". Albumet slippes 13. juli i år via Domino, og blir nyeste tilskudd til en svært variert og fascinerende diskografi, og bandets niende utgivelse i rekken. "Lamp Lit Prose" er produsert av Longstreth i hans studio Ivo Shandor i Los Angeles. Albumet inkluderer gjesteopptredener fra en imponerende rekke artister, som Syd, Haim, Robin Pecknold, Rostam Batmanglij, Amber Mark, Empress Of og Dear Nora, i tillegg til Nat Baldwin og Mike Johnson, som har spilt med Dirty Projectors i lang tid. STREAM FØRSTE SINGEL "BREAK-THRU" HER SE MUSIKKVIDEOEN TIL "BREAK-THRU" HER "Lamp Lit Prose" kommer til verden litt over et år etter at bandet slapp sitt selvtitulerte "Dirty Projectors" i 2017. De to platene er som yin og yang. Låtene på den nye "Lamp Lit Prose" reflekterer et nytt perspektiv for Longstreth: håp i stedet for hjertesorg, en balanse som gjenopprettes. Gitarene er tilbake i Dirty Projectors sin verden, intrikate vokalharmonier også. "Lamp Lit Prose" omfavner bandets karakteristikker, samtidig som det forsøker å utvide bandets musikalske grenser. Dirty Projectors annonserte nylig sin første turné på fem år. Longstreth legger ut på veien sammen med Baldwin (bass) og Johnson (trommer), i tillegg til tre nye bandmedlemmer: Felicia Douglass (perkusjon, vokal), Maia Friedman (gitar, vokal) og Kristin Slipp (keyboard, vokal).
