    12 Modern Drummer June 2014 Booth #1219 Always on the go, Daru Jones desired a highly portable cymbal set for hip-hop sessions, DJ Jams, and other sit-ins that spontaneously present themselves, enabling him to preserve his personal sound in modern urban mobility. The concept was developed in the PST X series, which provides a suitable basis for the type of fast and dry sounds that perfectly fit the world of Hip-hop & Electronica percussion. It is executed with the DJs 45 set consisting of a 12" Crash, 12" Ride and 12" Hats.

    Serious Music Media » Eli Keszler serious music media PR, Management, Consulting and Festival Curating home news producing projects artists music festivals & consulting other sounds contact about Eli Keszler reviews “L-Carrier ,” demonstrates another facet of Mr. Keszler’s work: the construction of large-scale, interactive installation pieces, which can function alone or in tandem with live performers. (“Catching Net,” a two-CD set newly issued on the German label Pan, includes contrasting versions of a similarly conceived piece.) In essence “L-Carrier” is an installation of piano wires from 3 to 70 feet long, amplified and struck with mechanical beaters triggered by input from a remote Web page hosted by Turbulence, a Web-art initiative. “At Eyebeam, Mr. Keszler’s spindly lattice stretches across a gallery wall and extends to the ceiling beams, filling the reverberant space with the steely pangs and groans of a ghost ship rocking on a river’s currents. For Thursday’s opening-night event, presented by Eyebeam and Turbulence in conjunction with the Issue Project Room’s Darmstadt Institute, Mr. Keszler led an octet in a live version of the work. Anthony Coleman, playing Farfisa organ, and Geoff Mullen, who applied metal bolts and a glass slide to a partly unstrung electric guitar, worked mostly in tandem with Mr. Keszler’s busy flux. Ashley Paul, on clarinet and alto saxophone, and Reuben Son, a bassoonist, provided long, slightly funereal tones; the violinists C. Spencer Yeh and Catherine Lamb and the cellist Alex Waterman countered with warm sustained chords and flitting squeals. For just over an hour Mr.

  • It Was Sometime in 1974 That a Number of Composition Students Were
    It was sometime in 1974 that a number of composition students were sitting at a table in the cafeteria of the New England Conservatory discussing the various musical issues of the day when Donald Martino, one of our Faculty Fearless Leaders, turned to Anthony Coleman and said “You know, Anthony, you are a truly literate musician.” Over the years, this condition has only intensified. I remember this quote now, in 2007, not only because it was true at the time, but also because after listening to the music on this CD I am deeply impressed that Anthony is able to draw from so many varied, disparate, and even contradictory sources, and still emerge with such a singular and consistent voice. It takes a truly literate and sophisticated mind to perceive the common threads of many languages and to sense their underlying unity. Listening to any of the five works on this CD is to enter into a particular world, highly specific in material but nearly hallucinatory in formal development. The music starts, becomes linear, suspends, goes vertical, goes backward, goes forward, produces vague memories, and ends. What happened? Something. Anthony was born in New York City in 1955 and is a pure product of that city’s musical energy. In high school he obsessed over Duke Ellington (a not-so-common thing for a high school kid in the late sixties and early seventies), hearing the band live for the first time on his fourteenth birthday. He subsequently got to know Ellington and the band personally, hanging out with them at gigs, and attending a workshop that they gave at the University of Wisconsin in the summer of 1972.

The Secret Gardeners: An Ethnography of Improvised Music in Berlin (2012-13) Tom Arthurs PhD Music The University of Edinburgh 2015 Abstract This thesis addresses the aesthetics, ideologies and practicalities of contemporary European Improvised Music-making - this term referring to the tradition that emerged from 1960s American jazz and free jazz, and that remains, arguably, one of today's most misunderstood and under-represented musical genres. Using a multidisciplinary approach drawing on Grounded Theory, Ethnography and Social Network Analysis, and bounded by Berlin's cosmopolitan local scene of 2012-13, I define Improvised Music as a field of differing-yet-interconnected practices, and show how musicians and listeners conceived of and differentiated between these sub-styles, as well as how they discovered and learned to appreciate such a hidden, ‘difficult’ and idiosyncratic artform.

Our first issue of spring focuses on those crucial engines of jazz, the drummers. Some might argue that jazz as a New York@Night style evolved primarily from its rhythmic elements and so we celebrate the 4 contributions recent and past of the timekeepers that make this music swing Interview: Pierre Favre (or maybe not). We invite them all to step out from behind their kits and take a much-deserved bow in this, our special Drummer Issue. 6 by Ken Waxman Cindy Blackman-Santana (On The Cover) is carrying on the traditions of her Artist Feature: Tomas Fujiwara early mentor Tony Williams and is increasingly visible inside and outside of the jazz world.

    ADHOC Editorial Senior Editor: Joe Bucciero Founding Editors: Emilie Friedlander& Ric Leichtung Copy Editor: Tyler Richman Contributing Writers: Miguel Gallego& Steven Spoerl Designer: Jesse Hlebo Events Events Director: Ric Leichtung Marketing Manager: Tyler Richman Letter Can streaming services be fair to artists? Is it worth paying for playlists? Vinyl keeps selling, but now major labels are fooding the vinyl market— so will the vinyl market implode? As long-stable relationships between consumers, artists, and music companies continue to break down, listeners and artists are being thrust, stylistically and physically, into a confusing new musical environment. Call us optimists, but the chaos appears to be prompting people to put the pieces together in myriad new ways.. These days, it can seem like cultures form not around what we’re listening to but how we’re listening to it—from audio source to social context. We can’t really defne 2015 by any specifc stylistic trends, after all. Arca and Lotic share immaculate industrial sonic palettes, but the former’s Mutant and the latter’s Agitations and Heterocetera more importantly share an impact on the wider listening culture. They open up dancefoors and dancers alike to new sounds, but also new identities and approaches to discourse. On the pop side of the spectrum, Justin Bieber and Carly Rae Jepsen both sing over increasingly of-the-times productions, but more exciting than the resultant music itself is the abundance of young listeners learning to love subtly daring pop compositions and innovative vocal processing. Contrary to what some critics have said, it’s not that the mainstream and the underground have collapsed into one another; they probably never will (or should).

REPRINTS Enlarge This Image Mr. Keszler’s work presents several paradoxes. A percussionist with roots in punk rock and free improvisation, he fuses chaos and order in his drumming: a burble and clatter akin to what European drummers like Tony Oxley and Han Bennink invented in the late 1960s to distinguish their work from American free jazz. Mr. Keszler’s penchant for pealing, ringing metal evokes another European percussionist, Eddie Prévost of the English collective AMM. Roots notwithstanding, Mr. Keszler is an original; the way he deploys his energies is even more so.
