  • Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: an Analysis Into Graphic Design's
    Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres by Vivian Le A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems (Honors Scholar) Presented May 29, 2020 Commencement June 2020 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Vivian Le for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems presented on May 29, 2020. Title: Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres. Abstract approved:_____________________________________________________ Ryann Reynolds-McIlnay The rise of digital streaming has largely impacted the way the average listener consumes music. Consequentially, while the role of album art has evolved to meet the changes in music technology, it is hard to measure the effect of digital streaming on modern album art. This research seeks to determine whether or not graphic design still plays a role in marketing information about the music, such as its genre, to the consumer. It does so through two studies: 1. A computer visual analysis that measures color dominance of an image, and 2. A mixed-design lab experiment with volunteer participants who attempt to assess the genre of a given album. Findings from the first study show that color scheme models created from album samples cannot be used to predict the genre of an album. Further findings from the second theory show that consumers pay a significant amount of attention to album covers, enough to be able to correctly assess the genre of an album most of the time.

  • Country Trailblazer Justin Moore to Perform in Bristol
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Angie Rutherford, Box Office Manager Thursday, October 16, 2014 Viking Hall Civic Center Phone: 423-764-0188 E-Mail: [email protected] Country trailblazer Justin Moore to perform in Bristol Country music trailblazer, Justin Moore will be gracing the stage of Viking Hall at 1100 Edgemont Ave., on Sunday evening, November 16, 2014 at 7:30PM. Tickets are on sale at the Viking Hall Box Office, on-line at etix.com and by phone at 423-764-0188. “They are selling fast,” said Angie Rutherford, Box Office Manager. “Justin appeals to all ages but especially the younger crowd. He is a singer some would consider off the beaten path, which makes him that much more appealing.” Justin Moore’s always had a thing about doing it his way. Call it stubborn redneck mettle, a well-developed case of who I am or just the fierce commitment to blaze a trail inherent to people from his home of Poyen, Arkansas. Moore is considered a little bit rowdy, a little bit sentimental and a whole lot of roughneck. While denting the country radio charts with three #1s in anything but big city “Small Town USA”, the sentimental side; “If Heaven Weren’t So Far Away”, and the fidelity pledge “Till My Last Day”. He continues with his new album “Off the Beaten Path” still racking up hit after hit. Moore will be joined by Colt Ford, a country music rapper, musician and songwriter who has co- written such songs as “Dirt Road Anthem” and recorded Top 40 chart song “Back”, a duet with Jake Owen.

  • “Blue Moon of Kentucky”—Bill Monroe and His Blue Grass Boys (1947) Added to the National Registry: 2002 Essay by Richard D
    “Blue Moon of Kentucky”—Bill Monroe and his Blue Grass Boys (1947) Added to the National Registry: 2002 Essay by Richard D. Smith (guest post)* Bill Monroe Illuminating a major juncture in American popular music history--the crossroads of country music and rock 'n’ roll–is the “Blue Moon of Kentucky.” Originally composed as a lonesome but lovely waltz by Bill Monroe (1911-1996)--the innovative Rosine, Kentucky-born singer/bandleader/mandolinist who became a pillar of the Grand Ole Opry, was a major figure in the Folk Music Revival and is renowned as “The Father of Bluegrass”--it was later covered by the young Elvis Presley during his first commercial recording sessions. Indeed, it is musically and culturally significant that Presley's first single consisted of his crooning and insinuating version of Delta blues singer/guitarist Arthur Crudup's “That's All Right” on one side and a rollicking rockabilly arrangement (in 4/4 time) of Monroe's waltz on the other. The roots of rock in African American music are well known, but the parallel influence of white country music deserves greater understanding. The story of “Blue Moon of Kentucky” provides this. Bill Monroe’s earliest-known performance of “Blue Moon of Kentucky” was on the Grand Ole Opry on August 25, 1945. Monroe recorded it during his first session for Columbia Records (having previously been on RCA Victor Bluebirds) on September 16, 1946. The session was historic, both for its material and Monroe’s sidemen in the Blue Grass Boys. Participating in their first recordings with Monroe were superb lead vocalist/guitarist/songwriter Lester Flatt and the brilliant and seminal three-finger-style banjo picker Earl Scruggs.

  • Reading Hick-‐Hop: the Shotgun Marriage Of
    Reading Hick-Hop: The Shotgun Marriage of Hip-Hop and Country Music Tressie McMillan Cottom Abstract: Hick-hop is the seamless, unlikely cultural marriage of two racialized, spatialized cultural forms: hip-hop and country music. To understand the cross-over success of this underground cultural form, one must understand the shifting economic and social realities of country’s largely poor, rural, southern, white audience. I argue that adoption of black urban hip hop iconography into country music speaks to the respective authenticity logics of both genres, the realities of the white “invisible poor”, and the material reality of a culture inextricably linked to U.S. Southern culture. Introduction Could there be two musical genres more diametrically opposed to one another than hip-hop and country music? Born amid Reagan’s urban apocalyptic landscape in exotic places like Brooklyn and the Bronx1 hip-hop music is a decidedly black urban cultural product. Unlike jazz, rock, and be-bop before it, hip-hop maximized a unique moment in a disrupted corporate music industry to afford black artists control of the iconography of the latest iteration of race music. Country music may have once been the poor white man’s attempt at singing the gospel and the blues but it evolved as the symbolic culture of non-elite, working class rural whiteness. It’s attendant values proudly defy middle class cultural conformity and racialized urban imagery. Country fans unironically embrace faith, family and country in a cynical pop culture world. Hip-hop fans may embrace the free market ethos of “money over bitches” but mainstream hip-hop is largely resistant to sentimental ruminations on hearth and home.
