Magaña 1 Jose Alejandro Magaña Senior Capstone Professor Sammons Performance in EDM - A Study and Analysis of DJing and Live Performance Artists 1. Introduction Electronic Dance Music (EDM) culture today is often times associated with top mainstream DJs and producers such as Deadmau5, Daft Punk, Calvin Harris, and David Guetta. These are artists who have established their career around DJing and/or producing electronic music albums or remixes and have gone on to headline world-renowned music festivals such as Ultra Music Festival, Electric Daisy Carnival, and Coachella. The problem is that the term “DJ” can be mistakenly used interchangeably between someone who mixes between pre-recorded pieces of music at a venue with a set of turntables and a mixer and an artist who manipulates or creates music or audio live using a combination of computers, hardware, and/or controllers.

  • Osmeikle Pure
    Dr George Meikle, Edge Hill University, Creative Edge Building, St Helens Rd, Ormskirk, Lancashire, L39 4QP [email protected] SCREENPLAY: A TOPIC-THEORY-INSPIRED INTERACTIVE SYSTEM ABSTRACT ScreenPlay is a unique interactive computer music system (ICMS) that draws upon various computational styles from within the field of human-computer interaction (HCI) in music, allowing it to transcend the socially contextual boundaries that separate different approaches to ICMS design and implementation, as well as the overarching spheres of experimental/academic and popular electronic musics. A key aspect of ScreenPlay’s design in achieving this is the novel inclusion of topic theory, which also enables ScreenPlay to bridge a gap spanning both time and genre between Classical/Romantic era music and contemporary electronic music; providing new and creative insights into the subject of topic theory and its potential for reappropriation within the sonic arts. 1. INTRODUCTION join[ing] the mechanical power of the machine to the nuances and “subjectivizing” control of the human performer … is itself an aesthetic value for our new age. This ultimately will be the way music will need to move until the next big issues arise. (Garnett 2001: 32) Human-computer interaction (HCI) in music is a subsidiary of the sonic arts in which the social context of its myriad manifestations varies greatly. Initially emerging from the field of experimental/academic electroacoustic music, HCI in music was facilitated in this regard ‘in large part due to the melodic/harmonic, rhythmic and timbral/textural freedom associated with the genre’ (Meikle 2016: 12); as exemplified by The Hands (Waisvisz 1984; 2006), and The Hub (Bischoff, Perkins, Brown, Gresham-Lancaster, Trayle, and Stone 1987-present; Early Computer Network Ensembles n.d.; Brown n.d.).

HOW THE DEMOCRATIZATION OF MUSIC CHANGED THE INDUSTRY Honors Thesis In the Department of Media & Communications at Salem State University By Ryan Feyre Dr. Peter Kvetko Faculty Advisor Department of Music and Dance *** Commonwealth Honors Program Salem State University 2020 i Abstract The music industry has witnessed a rise in democracy in the 21st century, both in terms of how artists write and record their content, and how we as listeners consume it. The growing affordability of music technology over the past ten years has allowed artists to work in the confines of their own homes. Many musicians are now granted the opportunity to build their own fanbase without the help of a label, mainly through music chat channels. As a result, consumers acquire music from a variety of places (Limewire, Napster, and now, Spotify). Corporations have now seemingly convinced customers that Spotify is the best place for acquiring any music one could want.
