In the second half of the 1970s, Brian Eno, Larry Fast, Mickey Hart, Stomu Yamashta and many other musicians blurred the lines between rock and avantgarde. Brian Eno (34), ex-keyboardist for Roxy Music, changed the course of rock music at least three times. The experiment of fusing pop and electronics on Taking Tiger Mountain By Strategy (sep 1974 - nov 1974) changed the very notion of what a "pop song" is. Eno took cheap melodies (the kind that are used at the music-hall, on television commercials, by nursery rhymes) and added a strong rhythmic base and counterpoint of synthesizer. The result was similar to the novelty numbers and the "bubblegum" music of the early 1960s, but it had the charisma of sheer post-modernist genius. Eno had invented meta-pop music: avantgarde music that employs elements of pop music. He continued the experiment on Another Green World (aug 1975 - sep 1975), but then changed its perspective on Before And After Science (? 1977 - dec 1977). Here Eno's catchy ditties acquired a sinister quality.

Sa recherche porte cette fois sur la musique pop, une piste un peu particulière dans le parcours de sa compagnie Rosas. Selon la chorégraphe, la pop « représente notre relation quotidienne à la musique » dans la mesure où « elle fait partie de notre mémoire collective, là où se mêlent en musique des éléments de danse, de théâtralité et de littérature ». Le point de départ est ici Golden Hours de Brian Eno, extrait de Another Green World, le dernier album de chansons que l’artiste a composées avant de se tourner vers la musique ambient. De Keersmaeker travaille ici avec un groupe de jeunes danseurs. Elle exalte la singularité gestuelle de chacun d’eux en suivant l’un de ses récents principes chorégraphiques : « la parole devient danse ».

  • 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.

  • A Brief Introduction to Brian Eno's Generative Music
    A brief introduction to Brian Eno’s generative music by Michael Bracewell Brian Eno’s generative music systems are best known for creating richly textured soundscapes, as engrossing as they are minimal, and as densely layered as they are refined to delicate curves, drifts and traceries of sound. His collaboration on Mimmo Paladino’s sculptural installation, collectively known as I Dormienti, and first shown at the Undercroft of London’s iconic ‘The Roundhouse’ venue in the early autumn of 1999, marked a simultaneous advance and consolidation of Eno’s career- long fascination in music making systems; more specifically in the routing of generative music through notions of time, randomness and context. In this, his interest in the generative became on one level an enquiry into the passing of time. The idea of creating music generating systems has been central to Brian Eno’s art and ideas since his days as a student at Winchester School of Art, during the middle years of the 1960s. Famously, Eno has cited Steve Reich’s pioneering work from 1965, It’s Gonna Rain – in which a tape recording of a Pentecostal preacher’s sermon is played back in semi-sampled form at differing speeds – as being hugely influential on his thinking. But Eno’s development as an ideologue, ‘non- musician’ and artist has always been founded upon an astonishing configuration and conflation of at times seemingly irreconcilable enthusiasms. Indeed, it is out of precisely such a fusion of opposed ideas, and Eno’s ceaseless questioning of the subsequent evolution of this fusion, that his originality, intellectual nerve and creative restlessness has emerged.
