Genre, De Muziekstijl, Stemming Van De Muziek En De Instrumentatie Die Een Bepaalde Artiest Uitoefende
Een Sociaal Netwerk Onder Muziekartiesten: Een analyse van het sociaal netwerk van muzikanten en daaraan verbonden muzikale kenmerken Gegevens student B.J.G.M. Kuppens Corporate Communication & Digital Media Universiteit van Tilburg [email protected] Begeleiding dr. J. J. Paijmans Faculteit Geesteswetenschappen dpt. Comm.‐ Infor.wetensch [email protected] 1 Abstract Dit onderzoek verdiept zich in de structuur van het sociaal netwerk van muziekartiesten. Wat onderzocht wordt, is of er binnen dit sociaal netwerk een zogenaamde power law verdeling te ontdekken valt. Dit is interessant vanwege de maatschappelijke relevantie van power law structuren in de samenleving. Om dit vast te stellen is er gekeken naar wie de meest invloedrijke artiesten zijn en van wie er de meeste nummers gecoverd zijn. De verwachting is dat er relatief weinig artiesten zijn met relatief veel invloed op medeartiesten, en overeenkomstig staan veel artiesten die weinig invloed hebben op hun medeartiesten. Hetzelfde fenomeen wordt verwacht bevestigd te worden voor gecoverde nummers. Nadat is gebleken dat de structuur van het sociaal netwerk onder muziekartiesten daadwerkelijk de kenmerken vertoont van een power law verdeling, is er vervolgens nog gekeken naar een viertal muzikale kenmerken van de meest invloedrijke artiesten gevonden tijdens dit onderzoek. Het betreft het genre, de muziekstijl, stemming van de muziek en de instrumentatie die een bepaalde artiest uitoefende. Ook van deze variabelen is er een frequentieverdeling gemaakt en is er gekeken of er op een power law gelijkende verdeling is. Dit bleek alleen bij de variabelen genre en instrumentatie het geval te zijn. Muziekstijl in mindere mate en wat stemming betreft zijn er geen dominante items gevonden. -

Dave Hartl's 2017 Top Ten (Or So) Most Influential Albums
Dave Hartl’s 2017 Top Ten (Or So) Most Influential Albums It’s time once again to look back and do that annual tradition of picking out the 10 or so most influential albums I heard in the past year. Not the most popular, or even the best, but what made me think the most as a musician. You can always go to http://www.davehartl.com/top10.html and look at other years’ postings. The links there go all the way back to 1998, when I started this with George Tucker. It’s a way of hearing about great music you might otherwise miss. If you want to contribute, please write to [email protected] with your own list and your contribution will be added to this document online for future downloads. This is why I do this! It always gives me some great recommendations for what to listen to that would be off my radar otherwise. So don’t be shy! Last year, Brian Groder, Jack Loughhead, and Kaz Yoshihara gave me some great things to listen to. 1.) John McLaughlin & the 4th Dimension: Live at Ronnie Scott’s 2017 saw the farewell American tour of the great guitarist John McLaughlin, who joined up with fellow guitarist Jimmy Herring for an unbelievable 3-set night concluding with pieces from his old Mahavishnu Orchestra days (you can see an entire concert at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPWa9F4UBQQ&t=19s, highly recommended!). This CD was recorded in London with McLaughlin’s working band of the last decade, the 4th Dimension, about 7 months ahead of the aforementioned American tour, but it shows a microcosm of that concept, opening with 1971’s Meeting of the Spirits and working through pieces showcasing the amazing drummer Ranjit Barot and his Indian classical influences, bassist Etienne M’Bappé’s multilevel constructions, and Gary Husband’s otherworldly synth textures, blowout chops, and energetic drumming. -
Hipster Black Metal?
Hipster Black Metal? Deafheaven’s Sunbather and the Evolution of an (Un) popular Genre Paola Ferrero A couple of months ago a guy walks into a bar in Brooklyn and strikes up a conversation with the bartenders about heavy metal. The guy happens to mention that Deafheaven, an up-and-coming American black metal (BM) band, is going to perform at Saint Vitus, the local metal concert venue, in a couple of weeks. The bartenders immediately become confrontational, denying Deafheaven the BM ‘label of authenticity’: the band, according to them, plays ‘hipster metal’ and their singer, George Clarke, clearly sports a hipster hairstyle. Good thing they probably did not know who they were talking to: the ‘guy’ in our story is, in fact, Jonah Bayer, a contributor to Noisey, the music magazine of Vice, considered to be one of the bastions of hipster online culture. The product of that conversation, a piece entitled ‘Why are black metal fans such elitist assholes?’ was almost certainly intended as a humorous nod to the ongoing debate, generated mainly by music webzines and their readers, over Deafheaven’s inclusion in the BM canon. The article features a promo picture of the band, two young, clean- shaven guys, wearing indistinct clothing, with short haircuts and mild, neutral facial expressions, their faces made to look like they were ironically wearing black and white make up, the typical ‘corpse-paint’ of traditional, early BM. It certainly did not help that Bayer also included a picture of Inquisition, a historical BM band from Colombia formed in the early 1990s, and ridiculed their corpse-paint and black cloaks attire with the following caption: ‘Here’s what you’re defending, black metal purists. -
Challenging Authenticity: Fakes and Forgeries in Rock Music
Challenging authenticity: fakes and forgeries in rock music Chris Atton Chris Atton Professor of Media and Culture School of Arts and Creative Industries Edinburgh Napier University Merchiston Campus Edinburgh EH10 5DT T 0131 455 2223 E [email protected] 8210 words (exc. abstract) Challenging authenticity: fakes and forgeries in rock music Abstract Authenticity is a key concept in the evaluation of rock music by critics and fans. The production of fakes challenges the means by which listeners evaluate the authentic, by questioning central notions of integrity and sincerity. This paper examines the nature and motives of faking in recorded music, such as inventing imaginary groups or passing off studio recordings as live performances. In addition to a survey of types of fakes and the motives of those responsible for them, the paper presents two case studies, one of the ‘fake’ American group the Residents, the other of the Unknown Deutschland series of releases, purporting to be hitherto unknown recordings of German rock groups from the 1970s. By examining the critical reception of these cases and taking into account ethical and aesthetic considerations, the paper argues that the relationship between the authentic (the ‘real’) and the inauthentic (the ‘fake’) is complex. It concludes that, to judge from fans’ responses at least, the fake can be judged as possessing cultural value and may even be considered as authentic. 1 Challenging authenticity: fakes and forgeries in rock music Little consideration has been given to the aesthetic and cultural significance of the inauthentic through the production of fakes in popular music, except for negatively critical assessments of pop music as ‘plastic’ or ‘manufactured’ (McLeod 2001 provides examples from American rock criticism). -

Nielsen Music Year-End Report U.S
NIELSEN MUSIC YEAR-END REPORT U.S. 2016 NIELSEN MUSIC YEAR-END REPORT U.S. 2016 Copyright © 2017 The Nielsen Company 1 Welcome to the annual Nielsen Music Year End Report, providing the definitive 2016 figures and charts for the music industry. And what a year it was! The year had barely begun when we were already saying goodbye to musical heroes gone far too soon. David Bowie, Paul Kantner, Glenn Frey, Leon Russell, Maurice White, Prince, Juan Gabriel, George Michael, Sharon Jones... the list goes on. And yet, while sad 2016 became a meme of its own, there is so much for the industry to celebrate. Music consumption is at an all-time high. Overall volume is up 3% over 2016, fueled by a 76% increase in on-demand audio streams, enough to offset declines in sales and return a positive year for the business. Nearly 650 solo artists, groups and collaborators appeared on the Top 200 Song Consumption chart in 2016, representing over 1,200 different songs. The rapid changes in technology and distribution channels are changing the way we discover and engage with content. Reaction times are shorter and current events ERIN CRAWFORD can have an instant impact on consumption. The last Presidential debate had SVP ENTERTAINMENT barely finished when there was an increase in streaming activity for Janet Jackson’s & GM MUSIC “Nasty.” The day after the news broke about Prince’s passing, over 1 million of his songs were downloaded. When a Florida teen set his #mannequinchallenge to “Black Beatles,” the song rocketed up the charts. -
