  • Live Among the White Trash: a History of Nono----Manman on Stage
    Live Among the White Trash: A history of nono----manman on stage “There are no No-Man concerts scheduled for the foreseeable future.” (from the official no-man website) Anyone who has followed no-man’s career over the previous ten years or so will be acutely aware that the band does not play live. If no-man “exist” as a band at all – and their infrequent releases mean they are more an ongoing understanding between two men rather than an active unit – it is only in the studio. Over a series of uncompromising albums no-man’s music has become ever more complex, yet ironically, “live sounding” than the release which proceeded it. But this organic “liveness” is mainly an illusion; the feeling of spontaneity often the result of numerous edits and takes which only the precision of studio work can produce. Others have tried to perform equally difficult music live: Radiohead ambitiously thrusting their clicks-and- cuts post-rock upon the world’s stadiums, for example. But for a variety of reasons, no-man simply haven’t tried – at least, not since 1994 and not until a one-off performance in 2006. The only comparable case is Talk Talk’s retreat into the studio in the late 1980s. Both bands have undoubtedly crafted their best work without going near an audience. 1 But it wasn’t always so. no-man were once very much a live act, promoting singles and albums with dates and undertaking two full-blown tours – though they rarely played outside London, never went further north than Newcastle, and never played outside Great Britain.

  • The Claudia Quintet September
    HotThe Box Critics John McDonough John Corbett Jim Macnie Paul de Barros René Marie I Wanna Be Evil Swing Fever ½ ½ Grand Masters Of Jazz The Claudia Quintet September Randy Brecker ½ ½ Brecker Brothers Band Reunion Critics’ Comments René Marie, I Wanna Be Evil: With Love To Eartha Kitt Swinging, soulful vocalist René Marie has great control and range but has had difficulty defining her territory. Oddly, this tribute album to Eartha Kitt has sparked some originality. Her clever, funky arrangement (in three) of “Let’s Do It,” a sexy “Santa Baby” and her daringly transgressive original “Weekend” add punch. The earnest Marie is more seduced by Kitt’s theatrical “earthiness” than by her winking kitsch. —Paul de Barros The Eartha Kitt songbook gives this excellent singer a superb array of material (from Dave Frishberg to Cole Porter) in which to show her winking, sinewy stuff. The East Side cleverness and sophistication tilt toward cabaret, but Wycliffe Gordon bridges the gap with humor and a few strange sounds. —John McDonough Successful transfusion of Eartha Kitt’s red-blooded, raw sex and exotica, purred and snarled as a steely story of determination and triumph. Marie throws a few of her own curves into the mix, but plays it rather close to the source. —John Corbett Swing Fever, Grand Masters Of Jazz Obviously prepared with love and admiration for the swing-pins. Memorable flashes from Clark Terry and Jackie Ryan, and DeFranco’s got such a huge presence, but much of the disc and two freebie DVDs falls short of being extraordinary. —John Corbett Love the idea of the locals hosting the heroes, especially when the locals kick it with so much verve.

  • Steve Jansen – Tender Extinction
    Steve Jansen – Tender Extinction (48:20, CD, A Steve Jansen Production, 2016) Bereits im April dieses Jahres erschien das aktuelle Soloalbum des Ex-Japaners Steve Jansen. War der Vorgänger „Slope“ noch auf Samadhi Sound, dem Label seines Bruders David Sylvian herausgekommen, ist „Tender Extinction“ im Eigenverlag über Bandcamp veröffentlicht worden. Erneut versammelte Jansen eine ganze Reihe hochkarätiger Gäste für sein Album. Es sind dieses Mal hauptsächlich Gast- Vokalisten und -Vokalistinnen. Sein BruderDavid gibt allerdings weiterhin den Waldschrat und war dieses Mal nicht dabei. Zum Einstieg gibt sich der Schwede Thomas Feiner die Ehre und liefert Gesang und Text zu ‚Captured‘. Das dunkel- symphonische Stück gibt die Marschrichtung des Albums vor und wirkt geradezu beschwörend bedrohlich – „Something left, and died out there“. Auch das von Perkussion dominierte ‚Her Distance‘ mit Gastsänger und Texter Perry Blake setzt auf beschwörende Gesangslinien und dunkle Atmosphäre. Insbesondere dieses Stück lässt Erinnerungen an das Cameo-Japan-Album „Rain Tree Crow“ aufkommen. Zwischen den gewichtigen Vokalstücken platzierteJansen Ambient-artige Instrumentals und Miniaturen, die dem Werk einen sanften Fluss geben. Tim Elsenburg (‚Give Yourself A Name‘) und Nicola Hitchcock (‚Faced With Nothing‘) verleihen den von ihnen gesungenen Stücken mit ihrehn markanten Stimmen einen sehr eindringlichen Charakter.Jansen selbst am Mikrophon beendet das Album mit dem sanften ‚And Bird Sing All Night‘, wobei er wiederum seinem berühmten Bruder zum Verwechseln ähnlich klingt. Tja, die Gene. Dass „Tender Extinction“ nicht als Stimmungsaufheller taugt, versteht sich somit von selbst. Herbstlicher Schwermut durchzieht dieses Werk. Das quirlig-elektronische Element, das Steve Jansens Album „Slope“ auszeichnete, wurde für „Tender Extinction“ ersatzlos gestrichen. Die Zusammenarbeit mit den genannten Sängern und Sängerinnen und eine eher sparsam symphonische Ausrichtung bringt hier Spannung auf einem anderen Terrain hervor.

  • A Life Adrift
    A Lf A A Life Adrift, the memoir of balladeer-political activist Soeda Azembō (1872- 1944), chronicles his life as one of Japan’s Þ rst modern mass entertainers and imparts an understanding of how ordinary people experienced and accommodated the tumult of life in prewar Japan. Azembō created enka songs sung by tenant farmers in rural hinterlands and factory hands in Tokyo and Osaka. Although his work is still largely unknown outside Japan, his poems and lyrics were so well known at his career’s peak that a single verse served as shorthand expressing popular attitudes about political corruption, sex scandals, spiralling prices, war, and love of motherland. As these categories attest, he embedded in his songs contemporary views on class conß ict, gender relations, and racial attitudes toward international rivals. Ordinary people valued Azembō’s music because it was of them and for them. They also appreciated it for being distinctively modern and home-grown, qualities rare among the cultural innovations that ß ooded into Japan from the mid- nineteenth century. A Life Adrift stands out as the only memoir of its kind, one written Þ rst-hand by a leader in the world of enka singing. The Author Michael Lewis is Professor of History at Michigan State University. 0001a-prelims-Life01a-prelims-Life AAdrift.indddrift.indd i 117/10/087/10/08 11:36:21:36:21 ppmm Routledge Contemporary Japan Series A Japanese Company in Crisis Political Reform in Japan Ideology, strategy, and narrative Leadership looming large Fiona Graham Alisa Gaunder Japan’s Foreign Aid Civil Society and the Internet in Japan Old continuities and new directions Isa Ducke Edited by David Arase Japan’s Contested War Memories Japanese Apologies for World War II The ‘memory rifts’ in historical A rhetorical study consciousness of World War II Jane W.

But ours is a way of life. Secrets of the Beehive made greater use of acoustic instruments and was musically oriented towards sombre, emotive ballads laced with string arrangements by Ryuichi Sakamoto and Brian Gascoigne. Sylvian and Fripp's final collaboration was the installation Redemption — Approaching Silence. The two artists lived in New Hampshire where they had two children. For me, that David Sylvian as a Philosopher an exploration of intuitive states via meditation and other related disciplines which, the more I witnessed free-improv players at work, appeared to be crucially important to enable a being there in the moment, a sustained alertness and receptivity.

  • Ryuichi SAKAMOTO: from Bach to Rock to Pop
    Volume 4 | Issue 12 | Article ID 2284 | Dec 02, 2006 The Asia-Pacific Journal | Japan Focus Ryuichi SAKAMOTO: From Bach to Rock to Pop . and the Fate of the Corporate Earth David McNeill Ryuichi SAKAMOTO: From Bach to Rock to Pop . and the Fate of the Corporate Earth Interviewed by David McNeill Japan's expat rebel with many causes blends music and a wider world view Former Japanese pop heart-throb and musical pioneer Ryuichi Sakamoto talks to David McNeill about music, the state of the planet -- and why he still reluctantly lives in New York City. What a long, strange journey it has been for Ryuichi Sakamoto. A revolutionary firebrand in the 1960s, he morphed into a '70s techno-pop pioneer with the seminal band Yellow Magic Orchestra, which he co-founded with Hosono Haruomi and Takahashi Yukihiro. YMO became one of Japan's biggest-selling bands ever -- and even posted a late-'70s Top 20 hit in Britain with "Firecracker." The band was also a key influence on the techno and house movements that swept Western pop culture a decade later. Multi-talented Ryuichi Sakamoto pictured during his recent interview in Tokyo. Jeremy Sutton-Hibbert Photo After a brief stint as a movie star in the early 1980s, including his role in Oshima Nagisa 's 1983 standout "Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence" -- for which he also wrote the soundtrack -- Sakamoto co-wrote (with Talking Heads' singer David Byrne and Cong Su) the 1987 Oscar-winning soundtrack for Bernardo Bertolucci's "The Last Emperor" -- still the best known of the many soundtracks he has written 1 4 | 12 | 0 APJ | JF -- of which 2002's "Femme Fatale" is among his latest.
