  • The Routledge Companion to Remix Studies
    THE ROUTLEDGE COMPANION TO REMIX STUDIES The Routledge Companion to Remix Studies comprises contemporary texts by key authors and artists who are active in the emerging field of remix studies. As an organic interna- tional movement, remix culture originated in the popular music culture of the 1970s, and has since grown into a rich cultural activity encompassing numerous forms of media. The act of recombining pre-existing material brings up pressing questions of authen- ticity, reception, authorship, copyright, and the techno-politics of media activism. This book approaches remix studies from various angles, including sections on history, aes- thetics, ethics, politics, and practice, and presents theoretical chapters alongside case studies of remix projects. The Routledge Companion to Remix Studies is a valuable resource for both researchers and remix practitioners, as well as a teaching tool for instructors using remix practices in the classroom. Eduardo Navas is the author of Remix Theory: The Aesthetics of Sampling (Springer, 2012). He researches and teaches principles of cultural analytics and digital humanities in the School of Visual Arts at The Pennsylvania State University, PA. Navas is a 2010–12 Post- Doctoral Fellow in the Department of Information Science and Media Studies at the University of Bergen, Norway, and received his PhD from the Program of Art and Media History, Theory, and Criticism at the University of California in San Diego. Owen Gallagher received his PhD in Visual Culture from the National College of Art and Design (NCAD) in Dublin. He is the founder of TotalRecut.com, an online com- munity archive of remix videos, and a co-founder of the Remix Theory & Praxis seminar group.

  • PM Zu Dance Gavin Dance & Veil of Maya
    PM zu Dance Gavin Dance & Veil Of Maya Dance Gavin Dance & Veil Of Maya präsentieren ihre neuen Experimental Metal Alben „Mothership“ und „False Idol“ gemeinsam am 14.03.18 im Logo live Hamburg, November 2017 – Für Fans experimentellen Metals ist die gemeinsame Tour von Dance Gavin Dance und Veil Of Maya der Höhepunkt des kommenden Jahres. Die beiden US-amerikanischen Bands aus Sacramento und Chicago haben vier Daten als Co- Headliner im März 2018 bestätigt, im Gepäck haben sie ihre beiden aktuellen Alben „Mothership“ und „False Idol“. Am 14.03.18 spielen Dance Gavin Dance und Veil Of Maya in Hamburg im Logo live! Dance Gavin Dance zeichnen sich durch kontinuierlichen Ausbau und Entwicklung ihres musikalischen Sortiments aus. Ursprünglich aus der Post-Hardcore-Szene von Sacramento stammend, kommen über die Jahre immer mehr Einflüsse hinzu, so dass sich inzwischen Elemente des Screamo, Funk, Soul, Pop, Disco und Hip-Hop in ihrer Musik finden lassen. Schon früh machten sie auf sich aufmerksam, auf der eine Seite durch ihren ehemaligen Sänger Jonny Craig aufgrund seiner für das Genre absolut unüblichen Soul-Einflüsse, auf der anderen Seite durch Gitarrist Will Swan, der für komplizierte, schnelle Licks und Riffs bekannt ist. Weitere definierende Merkmale von Dance Gavin Dance sind das abwechslungsreiche und rhythmisch komplexe Spiel von Schlagzeuger Matthew Mingus und die Kombination von sauberem Gesang und Screaming der zwei Frontmänner. Das aktuelle Album „Mothership“, das insgesamt siebte, erreicht sogar Platz 13 der US-Charts. 2004 in Chicago gegründet, nehmen Veil Of Maya 2005 ihr erstes Demo mit drei Songs auf. Nach dem Motto „Do It Yourself“ beginnt das Quartett, eigene Konzerte und Touren zu veranstalten und zu organisieren.
