  • 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.

  • Temporal Disunity and Structural Unity in the Music of John Coltrane 1965-67
    Listening in Double Time: Temporal Disunity and Structural Unity in the Music of John Coltrane 1965-67 Marc Howard Medwin A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Music. Chapel Hill 2008 Approved by: David Garcia Allen Anderson Mark Katz Philip Vandermeer Stefan Litwin ©2008 Marc Howard Medwin ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT MARC MEDWIN: Listening in Double Time: Temporal Disunity and Structural Unity in the Music of John Coltrane 1965-67 (Under the direction of David F. Garcia). The music of John Coltrane’s last group—his 1965-67 quintet—has been misrepresented, ignored and reviled by critics, scholars and fans, primarily because it is a music built on a fundamental and very audible disunity that renders a new kind of structural unity. Many of those who study Coltrane’s music have thus far attempted to approach all elements in his last works comparatively, using harmonic and melodic models as is customary regarding more conventional jazz structures. This approach is incomplete and misleading, given the music’s conceptual underpinnings. The present study is meant to provide an analytical model with which listeners and scholars might come to terms with this music’s more radical elements. I use Coltrane’s own observations concerning his final music, Jonathan Kramer’s temporal perception theory, and Evan Parker’s perspectives on atomism and laminarity in mid 1960s British improvised music to analyze and contextualize the symbiotically related temporal disunity and resultant structural unity that typify Coltrane’s 1965-67 works.

  • Mysticism, Implicit Religion and Gravetemple's Drone Metal By
    1 The Invocation at Tilburg: Mysticism, Implicit Religion and Gravetemple’s Drone Metal by Owen Coggins 1.1 On 18th April 2013, an extremely slow, loud and noisy “drone metal” band Gravetemple perform at the Roadburn heavy metal and psychedelic rock festival in Tilburg in the Netherlands. After forty-five minutes of gradually intensifying, largely improvised droning noise, the band reach the end of their set. Guitarist Stephen O’Malley conjures distorted chords, controlled by a bank of effects pedals; vocalist Attila Csihar, famous for his time as singer for notorious and controversial black metal band Mayhem, ritualistically intones invented syllables that echo monastic chants; experimental musician Oren Ambarchi extracts strange sounds from his own looped guitar before moving to a drumkit to propel a scattered, urgent rhythm. Momentum overtaking him, a drumstick slips from Ambarchi’s hand, he breaks free of the drum kit, grabs for a beater, turns, and smashes the gong at the centre of the stage. For two long seconds the all-encompassing rumble that has amassed throughout the performance drones on with a kind of relentless inertia, still without a sonic acknowledgement of the visual climax. Finally, the pulsating wave from the heavily amplified gong reverberates through the corporate body of the audience, felt in physical vibration more than heard as sound. The musicians leave the stage, their abandoned instruments still expelling squalling sounds which gradually begin to dissipate. Listeners breathe out, perhaps open their eyes, raise their heads, shift their feet and awaken enough to clap and shout appreciation, before turning to friends or strangers, reaching for phrases and gestures, often in a vocabulary of ritual, mysticism and transcendence, which might become touchstones for recollection and communication of their individual and shared experience.

A ta slova byla Sun Ra. O něm jsem místopřísežně v nejrůznějších médiích slíbil, že ve druhém dílu napíšu stěžejní článek, a vrátilo se mi to jako bumerang. Toho jsem tedy dosáhl, i když by si tento zcela zásadní muzikant zasloužil celou knihu o několika tisících stránek. Přesto studium jeho odkazu pro mě znamenalo otevření dalších dimenzí pro další bádání a pochopení zcela nových věcí. Řada textů vznikla díky možnosti navštívit některé věhlasné světové festivaly, které se věnují alternativní hudbě a neberou ji jako okrajovou záležitost, ale šanci pro poznávání současných trendů. Byla to příležitost blíže poznat řadu umělců a v neposlední řadě pochopit fakt, že takzvaná „alternativa“ je otevřena každé vstřícné duši. A věřte, že na tyto akce v Rakousku či Francii chodí číratí punkáči i zasloužilí důchodci v oblecích a vytváří společnou komunitu lidí, kteří v jakémkoliv věku hledají nové impulsy a mají mnoho společného - totiž právě ono hledání. Tímto bych chtěl poděkovat jejich organizátorům. Opět se čtenáři i kritici budou ptát, proč zde to a tohle zrovna chybí, i když je to trendy nebo klasika nos plus ultra, a proč jsou zde zastoupeni relativně marginální muzikanti či soubory a proč zde relativně malý prostor dostala tentokrát domácí scéna.

    CONTENTS Editorial An internet-related rant and a summary of the delights to follow in the rest of the current issue. By David Grundy. [pp.3-4] Listening to Sachiko M 12,000 words (count' em) – a lengthy, and no-doubt futile attempt to get to grips with some of the recordings of empty-sampler player (or, in her own words, 'non-musician'), Sachiko M, including interminable ramblings on such albums as 'Bar Sachiko,' 'Filament 1', and 'Tears'. By David Grundy. [pp.5-26] The Drop at the Foot of the Ladder: Musical Ends and Meanings of Performances I Haven't Been To, Fluxus and Today 11,000 words (count 'em), covering the delicate and indelicate negotiations between music and performance, audience and performer, art and non-art, that take place in the 1960s works of Fluxus and their distant inheritors, Mattin and Taku Unami. By Lutz Eitel. [pp.27-52] Feature: Live in Seattle Two solo takes and a duo relating to Coltrane's 1965 recording, made at the breaking point of his 'Classic Quartet', poised between old and new, music that pushes at the limits and drops back only to push again with furious persistence. By David Grundy and Sean Bonney. [pp.53-74] Interview: The Rent To call The Rent a Steve Lacy 'tribute band' would be to do them an immense disservice, though their repertoire consists mainly of Lacy compositions. Their conversation with Ted Harms covers such topics as inter-disciplinarity, the Lacy legacy, and the notion of jazz repertoire.

  • 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.

  • 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.
