The episode airing today features The Strokes in conversation with Gordon Raphael—who produced their debut EP The Modern Age, their first two LPs Is This It and Room On Fire and contributed to their third LP First Impressions Of Earth—as well as their longtime friend, SNL’s Colin Jost. The band’s new album The New Abnormal, their first in seven years, was released in April to widespread critical acclaim.

    UNIVERSIDAD DE CUENCA Facultad de Artes - Carrera de Artes Musicales TESIS PREVIA A LA OBTENCIÓN DEL TÍTULO DE LICENCIADO EN INSTRUCCIÓN MUSICAL. TEMA: “Composición de una canción de rock para formato de batería, bajo, guitarras y voz, basado en la estructura melódico- armónica de Soda Stereo y The Strokes”. AUTOR: LUIS ALFONSO MORENO MORA C.I. 0704607530 DIRECTOR: Mst. WALTER VINICIO NOVILLO ALULEMA C.I. 0103844171 CUENCA - ECUADOR 2017 Universidad de Cuenca RESUMEN La música, y todas las expresiones culturales están expuestas a modificaciones y apropiaciones de elementos externos, el rock no escapa a esta tendencia, de ahí que este trabajo efectúa la composición de una canción de rock para formato de batería, bajo, guitarras y voz, basado en la estructura melódico-armónica de Soda Stereo y The Strokes. Para ello se ha realizado un estudio previo del recorrido que siguió la historia de la música rock y sus relaciones con las ciencias, así como las fusiones, mezclas e hibridaciones contenidas a lo largo de su desarrollo en el tiempo. La producción musical y sus procesos han tenido un apartado importante en este estudio, introduciendo todo un despliegue de nuevas tecnologías aplicadas al mundo de la música. Las etapas de producción musical, es decir, la composición, la grabación, la mezcla y la masterización fueron objeto de estudio cuidadoso. La investigación se reafirmó al profundizar en los elementos musicales tales como: el ritmo, la armonía, la melodía y el tiempo. Las canciones escogidas de los grupos tomados como referencia para luego formar la canción que sirvieron de base a este trabajo se analizaron desde su estructura hasta su progresión armónica, dando paso a la creación de una nueva obra como ejercicio de producción musical con base de hits, lo que serviría para dar luz a un mejor manejo de parámetros musicales.

    19 Like a Gang

    19 LIKE A GANG JESSE MALIN: The thing with the Strokes is they were a real band. A band should be a gang, running down the street, chasing a bus, breaking windows, breaking hearts. Those guys had that. NICK VALENSI: We felt like a gang. NIKOLAI FRAITURE: We thought that’s what a band was. ALBERT HAMMOND JR.: That was something we actually really thought about. I remember being like, “No, we have to all go together.” When we walk down the street and they see five guys, people would yell out, “The Beatles!” The idea is, if they’re yelling that out and they don’t even know who we are, they’ll come to the show. One day they’ll see something in Time Out and be like, “Oh, I remember those guys, they’re always hanging out and getting drunk.” Plus, it makes it easier if you’re trying to meet a girl: “Here’s a flyer.” It’s a starting point for a conversation. We made really, really cool flyers. JOE LEVY: I first met them at a Weezer show at Irving Plaza. Albert and Fab followed me into the bathroom to give me a gig flyer while I was at the urinal. J. P. BOWERSOCK: They had branding before people even talked about branding. One of them would mail out these elaborate postcards with brilliant graphics. And somewhere along the line, Julian had tried working for his father’s modeling agency, which didn’t work out, but when they had shows he persuaded some of the models to come.

    ARAB TIMES, FRIDAY-SATURDAY, JANUARY 8-9, 2021 NEWS/FEATURES 13 People & Places Media 2020 hit publishing world ‘Books are resilient in year of upheaval’ By Hillel Italie ook publishing in 2020 was a story of how much Ban industry can change and how much it can, or wants to, remain the same. “A lot of what has happened this past year - if it were a novel, I would say that it had a little too much plot,” said Simon & Schuster CEO Jonathan Karp. Three narratives ran through the book world for much of the year: an industry pressed to acknowledge that the status quo was unacceptable, an industry of- fering comfort and enlightenment during traumatic times, and an industry ever more consolidated around the power of Penguin Random House and Amazon. com. To its benefi t and to its dismay, publishing was drawn into the events of the moment. The pandemic halted and threatened to wipe out a decade of growth for in- dependent bookstores, forced the postponement of countless new releases and led to count- less others being forgotten. The annual national conven- tion, BookExpo, was called off and may be gone permanently after show organizers Reed Ex- hibitions announced they were “retiring” it.
