1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Inspiration for songwriter's old and new.By F. J. Souder IIIGreat book on songwriters and their methods and writing techniques. If you need some inspiration there's plenty here to read and draw from each interviewee. Good going Daniel.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Insight on Every PageBy A.Trendl HungarianBookstore.comAt first I thought Daniel Rachel had written a book all about the avant-garde synthpop group big in the 1980s. While that would no doubt be interesting, this is much more substantial.Essentially, it is a collection of interviews of songwriters as the title implies.Rachel begins each chapter with an essay leading into the interview.Who is interviewed? Mick Jones from the Clash, Annie Lennox, Jimmy Page, Sting, Ian Dury, Robin Gibb, Ray Davies and so on. Each is around 20 pages, give or take, with each Q/A a paragraph or two. In other words, each writer is given an opportunity to explain his or her process.I enjoyed the ones for Jimmy Page and Robin Gibb most. This might be because I know their catalog so much better than the rest, or because maybe that's how I'd like to approach song writing.Not all are disciplined writers and, instead, draw ideas from random places at random times. Others are extremely disciplined, with careful notes regarding chords and harmonies. That's all part of the story.Rachel did his homework and obviously has an educated curiosity about how great song writing happens. He refers frequently to the rest of the canon throughout, and asks intelligent questions.This is a good book done well, insightful in both its content and the musical history it presents. I fully recommend, "The Art of Noise: Conversations with Great Songwriters" by Daniel Rachel.Anthony Trendlanthonytrendl.com0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. and I was thoroughly delighted to discover he carried that demeanour into the room ...By Davey KI happen to know this bloke. He’s a mild mannered gentleman at the least, and I was thoroughly delighted to discover he carried that demeanour into the room when interviewing some of Britain’s biggest musical fish. I was particularly impressed with the Sting interview; a giant of a man, who doesn’t suffer fools lightly, seems to genuinely enjoy being interviewed by the humble and curious character that Daniel is. This book is a must for songwriters, and fans curious of the maths behind the magic.

"A collection of brand-new, in-depth, and revealing conversations about songwriting with some of the world's most- noted hitmakers"THE ART OF NOISE offers an unprecedented collection of insightful, of-the-moment conversations with twenty-seven of the great songwriters. They discuss everything from their individual approaches to writing, to the inspiration behind their most successful songs, to the techniques and methods they have independently developed to foster their creativity. Contributors include: Sting * Ray Davies * Robin Gibb * Jimmy Page * Joan Armatrading * Noel Gallagher * Lily Allen * Annie Lennox * Damon Albarn * Noel Gallagher * Laura Marling * Paul Weller * Johnny Marr * and many moreEach interview is approached with depth of understanding of the practice of songwriting, but also of each musician's catalog. The result is a collection of conversations that's probing, informed, and altogether entertaining what contributor Noel Gallagher called "without doubt the finest book I've ever read about songwriters and the songs they write." The collected experience of these songwriters makes this book the essential word of songwriting as spoken by the songwriters themselves."

“Rachel's brilliant tome is as far from the snotty, gossipy stereotype of music journalism as it's possible to get....His style is respectful (he writes generously about parts of the careers of Sting and Oasis that many would consider best forgotten) but never bland. Instead, the introductions and the questions that follow reveal real insight....It's one hell of a look back.” ?“Uniformly interesting...A splendid treat for music aficionados.” ?Kirkus s“These are fans notes that will appeal to those obsessive about the details of songwriting.” ?Publishers Weekly“This is without doubt the finest book I've ever read about songwriters and the songs they write.

I'm proud to be a part of this project.” ?Ray Davies“Rachel is a really intelligent, clued-up, and musically astute interviewer and his book is worth more than its hefty weight.” ?Daily Sport (UK)“Impeccably researched, thoughtful, and well-angled…ART OF NOISE is an insightful read. Rachel gains the confidence of his subject and, in doing so, hundreds of engaging thoughts on individual process emerge, amounting to the essential word on classic British songwriting.” ?Mouth Magazine“Daniel Rachel's ART OF NOISE (St. Martin's Griffin) is made for sipping slowly…Rachel has an insider's advantage and his shrewd questions draw fascinating insights from reliably analytical characters.” ?Dorian Lynskey, The Guardian“Rachel's interviews are enthralling and vivid. Our senses are excited, our consciousness heightened and our mind's utterly captivated…Rachel has delivered a true moment of glory with this Bible for music fans.” ?J. Rodger, Balthazar “Rachel's questioning is sharp and well informed…It's a fascinating read that any musician or songwriter would find both helpful and thought-provoking, as would anyone with an interest in pop culture. After reading the interviews I guarantee you will listen to these artists with fresh ears, renewed interest and fresh appreciation. A remarkable achievement.” ?Duncan Fletcher, Subba Cultcha“The interviews…are as in-depth as you could possibly hope for…ART OF NOISE is an outstanding book that will appeal to all kinds of discerning music lovers – and to songwriters of all persuasions.” ?Russell Deeks, Songwriting“A superb new book…Rachel has managed to bring together a truly impressive ensemble of British tunesmiths…The results are hugely enjoyable.” ?Thomas McGrath, Dangerous Minds“Documenting fifty years of British songwriting through unique personal insights and an impressive wealth of knowledge, this is a beautiful book.” ?Emma Parlons, Life of Yablon“Rarely has this thought-provoking subject been tackled in such an engaging and insightful way.” ?Jocks and Nerds “ART OF NOISE offers a fascinating glimpse into the mind of a songwriter.” ?Campbell Miller, The List“What a collection…it's absolutely fantastic.” ?Janice Long, BBC RADIO 2“A fascinating book.” ?Miranda Sawyer, LOOSE ENDS BBC RADIO 4“Never less than illuminating.” ?
