SKIVLISTA 3-2018 Hello Music Lovers, the Following Items Will Be Sold on Open Auction Which Means You Can Ask About Leading Bids by Phone Or Mail
AUCTION – AUKTION SKIVLISTA 3-2018 Hello music lovers, The following items will be sold on open auction which means you can ask about leading bids by phone or mail. Please send your starting bids by mail, phone or post before the last day of auction. Hoppas allt är bra med er och era skivspelare. Här kommer en ny lista och jag hoppas du hittar något intressant till Auction deadline is Tuesday, March 27, 2018 at 22.00 / 10 PM Central samlingen. Jag har reflekterat över att vissa artister som tidigare brukade vara mycket efterfrågade nu är tämligen European time (20.00 / 8 PM UTC/GMT) svårsålda. Två bra exempel är Elvis och Spotnicks. Visst, jag förstår att det är ointressant om man redan har alla STOPPDATUM ALLTSÅ TISDAGEN DEN 27 MARS 2018 KL. 22.00 SVENSK skivorna på listan i samlingen. Men då ser jag heller ingen anledning att aktivt leta efter skivor med dessa artister för SOMMARTID. att eventuellt hitta något ni saknar. Det bästa är om ni som bara vill ha Elvis eller någon annan artist skickar en lista på vad ni har eller vad ni söker. Jag hjälper gärna till att leta fram skivor ni saknar men att lägga ner tid och resurser 7" SINGLES/EPs FOR AUCTION på att köpa in speciella artister som ni ändå aldrig köper verkar knappast meningsfullt. Men kom gärna med förslag på vad ni vill se mer av i mina listor. Någon speciell musikgenre? Minimum bid (M.B.) is SEK 50 / US$ 8 / € 6,- / £ 5 unless otherwise noted . Rutan har fått en fettknöl på huvudet bortopererad i dag men är nu hemma igen, pigg och glad.

Le Webzine Des Musiques Sombres Et Expérimentales : Rock, Jazz, Progressif, Metal, Electro, Hardcore
Guts Of Darkness Le webzine des musiques sombres et expérimentales : rock, jazz, progressif, metal, electro, hardcore... avril 2002 Vous pouvez retrouvez nos chroniques et nos articles sur www.gutsofdarkness.com © 2000 - 2016 Un sommaire de ce document est disponible à la fin. Page 2/212 Les interviews Page 3/212 SCARVE - (interview réalisée par Nicko) 1/ Pourriez-vous rappeler brièvement le parcours du groupe depuis sa création ? Le groupe : La formation s'est formée fin 93 - début 94. On a rapidement enregistré une première démo, puis a suivi un premier album autoproduit 6 titres en 96. On a eu pas mal de changements de line-up, encore ces derniers temps. On a fait 2 albums depuis, produits et distribués, le premier chez Furtive Records en 2000, "Translucence", et puis il y a un mois, "Luminiferous", le nouvel album, est sorti chez Listenable Records. 2/ Ce soir, il s'agit du dernier concert de la tournée, comment s'est-elle justement passée ? Le groupe : Super cool, supers rencontres, que ce soit au niveau du public ou au niveau des groupes. On a pu aussi constater que pas mal de personnes qui étaient venues nous voir connaissaient déjà le dernier album, c'était assez sympa. On est content ! Sinon on a bien picolé, on a bien fait la fête ! Et on est complètement mort ! Mais on en redemande, on est prêt à repartir le plus tôt possible. On s'est trop éclaté. 3/ Vous sortez votre deuxième "vrai" album, "Luminiferous", est-ce que vous pouvez nous en parler, et nous énoncer les différences que l'on peut rencontrer par rapport au précédent album ? Le groupe : "Translucence" avait été composé sur une période beaucoup plus longue, donc il y avait plus de différences entre les morceaux, alors que là, "Luminiferous" est plus compact.

Frank Zappa Sex and Popular Music Book Chapter
»MAKE A SEX NOISE HERE«: FRANK ZAPPA, SEX AND POPULAR MUSIC Paul Carr Throughout his controversial career, Frank Zappa was often associated with provocative music, which challenged society's understanding of the First Amendment. Although his very public confrontation with the Parents Music Resource Centre (PMRC) in September 1985 is probably the pinnacle of his antipathy toward state prescribed restrictions, it is apparent that his entire compositional portfolio is littered with both overt and more subliminal ref- erences to sex. One of the first instances of this practice occurred in 1964 after Zappa was arrested and imprisoned for producing an audiotape of si- mulated sexual acts while still a jobbing musician, and was to continue for the next three decades. There is a matrix of sexual reference to Zappa's oeuvre, with examples ranging from seemingly immature references to sex,1 to quasi-moral narratives about sexually transmitted diseases,2 to sex as a conduit for social and religious satire,3 to sustained science fiction visions of sexual dystopia,4 to conspiracy driven accounts of the rise of AIDS,5 to humorous narratives about sex appliances,6 to the voyeuristic orgasm through torture dystopia of »The Torture Never Stops« on Zoot Allures (1976). Zappa rationalized his liberalistic views on sex by stating that the ›sex equals sin‹ propaganda instilled by pressure groups such as the PMRC only resulted in the institutionalization of the »neurotic misconception that keeps pornographers in business« (Courier 2002: 416) and that lack of sex had the potential to result in some of the USA's social problems.

In the final analysis, the ringmaster of freaks, a mother to the North American counterculture, and champion of outsiders, would find himself outnumbered and outmanoeuvred by the rising tide of ‘plastic people’. The nature and efficacy of Zappa’s last formal political stand at this juncture is the concern of this chapter. It is the precise social and political moment of this juncture – as the 1970s turned into the 1980s, and the dawn of the Reagan era, perceived as the final routing of “the long 1960s” – that lends a context to Zappa’s seemingly reactionary sentiments, a framing which goes some way to recover Zappa’s work from its detractors.

A Historical Overview, Analysis, and Wind Transcription of Frank Zappa's
A Historical Overview, Analysis, and Wind Transcription of Frank Zappa’s “Sad Jane” Vu Q. Nguyen A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts University of Washington 2012 Reading Committee: Timothy O. Salzman, Chair Jonathan W. Bernard Steven J. Morrison Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Music © Copyright 2012 Vu Q. Nguyen University of Washington Abstract A Historical Overview, Analysis, and Wind Transcription of Frank Zappa’s “Sad Jane” Vu Q. Nguyen Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor of Music, Timothy O. Salzman School of Music This dissertation explores a selection of orchestral works by American composer Frank Zappa (1940-1993), focusing on those recorded by Kent Nagano (b. 1951) and the London Symphony Orchestra (LSO) in 1983. Chapter 1 offers a biographical snapshot of Zappa, including events and factors, such as his autodidactic musical education, that contributed to his musical development and eclectic musical tastes that straddle the worlds of pop and art music. Chapter 2 explores the relationship between Zappa and the various performers he worked with on productions of his large orchestral pieces. This includes his professional relationship with Nagano, his interactions with the musicians of the LSO and Berkeley Symphony Orchestra, as well as the dancers and choreographers involved with A Zappa Affair. Chapter 3 provides an analysis of “Sad Jane” and a discussion about the author’s transcription of it for wind ensemble. Acknowledgements I would like to thank the many people that have made this journey possible. First, I would like to thank Professor Timothy Salzman for his mentorship, friendship, and guidance that have contributed so much to my development as a musician.
