  • Writers and Singers Assassinated by Their Government—Usually a Dictatorship—Or Killed During a Massacre
    IN THE TIME OF THE ASSASSINS: MARTYRED POETS, WRITERS, AND SINGERS by Henry Rasof The focus of this article is simple: writers and singers assassinated by their government—usually a dictatorship—or killed during a massacre. A small selection of victims, whom I think of as martyrs, will be discussed briefly, followed by basic information about one or two of their creative works and links to a few relevant web sites. I will not be doing any sort of analysis or comparative discussion. Just getting the basic facts is challenging enough. In one of the rooms of my house is a room with several shelves of books, CDs, and memorabilia dedicated to these martyrs. PERSIAN SUFI WRITER: Attar of Nishapur Abū Hamīd bin Abū Bakr Ibrāhīm, better known as Farid ud-Din Attar or Attar of Nishapur, was the Persian author of the Sufi (Islamic mystical) classic The Conference of the Birds (English title), dated 1177. The characters in the book are different types of birds. Attar died in a Mongol massacre in Nishapur in about 1221, when he was in his 70s. Dates and numbers vary with the sources. *Attar, The Conference of the Birds, trans. Sholeh Wolpé. New York and London: W.W.

  • 43E Festival International Du Film De La Rochelle Du 26 Juin Au 5 Juillet 2015 Le Puzzle Des Cinémas Du Monde
    43e Festival International du Film de La Rochelle du 26 juin au 5 juillet 2015 LE PUZZLE DES CINÉMAS DU MONDE Une fois de plus nous revient l’impossible tâche de synthétiser une édition multiforme, tant par le nombre de films présentés que par les contextes dans lesquels ils ont été conçus. Nous ne pouvons nous résoudre à en sélectionner beaucoup moins, ce n’est pas faute d’essayer, et de toutes manières, un contexte économique plutôt inquiétant nous y contraint ; mais qu’une ou plusieurs pièces essentielles viennent à manquer au puzzle mental dont nous tentons, à l’année, de joindre les pièces irrégulières, et le Festival nous paraîtrait bancal. Finalement, ce qui rassemble tous ces films, qu’ils soient encore matériels ou virtuels (50/50), c’est nous, sélectionneuses au long cours. Nous souhaitons proposer aux spectateurs un panorama généreux de la chose filmique, cohérent, harmonieux, digne, sincère, quoique, la sincérité… Ambitieux aussi car nous aimons plus que tout les cinéastes qui prennent des risques et notre devise secrète pourrait bien être : mieux vaut un bon film raté qu’un mauvais film réussi. Et enfin, il nous plaît que les films se parlent, se rencontrent, s’éclairent les uns les autres et entrent en résonance dans l’esprit du festivalier. En 2015, nous avons procédé à un rééquilibrage géographique vers l’Asie, absente depuis plusieurs éditions de la programmation. Tout d’abord, avec le grand Hou Hsiao-hsien qui en est un digne représentant puisqu’il a tourné non seulement à Taïwan, son île natale mais aussi au Japon, à Hongkong et en Chine.

The rise to power of the anti-Western, fanatical Khmer Rouge in 1975 caused drastic and permanent changes for Cambodia. These years saw social upheaval in the form of massive famines, selective executions and a brutal campaign of genocide responsible for the deaths of an estimated two million Cambodians, many in the notorious “killing fields.” Even the most famous and beloved Khmer musicians could not escape.

  • T Think I've Forgotten' Director John Pirozzi Talks Cambodian Rock and Roll Film
    'Don't Think I've Forgotten' director John Pirozzi talks Cambodian rock and roll film May 5, 2015 By RAFER GUZMÁN [email protected] John Pirozzi, the filmmaker behind the acclaimed documentary, "Don't Think I've Forgotten," about the lost history of Cambodian rock and roll. Photo Credit: Nick Hahn It wasn't just London that was swinging in the 1960s, according to the new documentary "Don't Think I've Forgotten: Cambodia's Lost Rock and Roll." Directed by John Pirozzi, the film paints a picture of Cambodia's capital, Phnom Penh, as a vibrant city teeming with garage bands and rebellious rockers -- until the Khmer Rouge took over in 1975. In just a few years, the regime wiped out nearly 2 million Cambodians and almost all evidence of the country's once- flourishing music scene. Pirozzi pieced it back together by tracking down old albums, rare footage and surviving musicians; the movie ultimately took him 10 years to make. He'll show it in person Wednesday night at Huntington's Cinema Arts Centre. (It is also playing at Sag Harbor Cinema.) Pirozzi sat last week to discuss his labor of love. How did you discover this music? I'd always been fascinated by modern Cambodian history. I worked as a camera operator on "City of Ghosts," the film Matt Dillon directed about Cambodia, in 2001. I remember shooting a scene with [James] Caan, who was supposed to be singing a Cambodian song, lip-synching. I thought: "What is this weird music?" When I got back here, a friend of mine sent me a compilation, "Cambodian Rocks." When I heard the music, I thought: This is a way to tell the history.

  • Popular Songs, Melodies from the Dead: Moving Beyond Historicism with the Buddhist Ethics and Aesthetics of Pin Peat and Cambodian Hip Hop
    religions Article Popular Songs, Melodies from the Dead: Moving beyond Historicism with the Buddhist Ethics and Aesthetics of Pin Peat and Cambodian Hip Hop Jeffrey Dyer Department of Musicology and Ethnomusicology, Boston University, Boston, MA 02215, USA; [email protected] Received: 1 October 2020; Accepted: 9 November 2020; Published: 22 November 2020 Abstract: This article illustrates how the aesthetics of two types of Cambodian music—pin peat and Cambodian hip hop—enact Cambodian–Buddhist ethics and function as ritual practices through musicians’ recollections of deceased teachers’ musical legacies. Noting how prevalent historicist and secular epistemologies isolate Cambodian and, more broadly, Southeast Asian musical aesthetics from their ethical and ritual functions, I propose that analyses focusing on Buddhist ethics more closely translate the moral, religious, and ontological aspects inherent in playing and listening to Cambodian music. I detail how Cambodian musicians’ widespread practices of quoting deceased teachers’ variations, repurposing old musical styles, and reiterating the melodies and rhythms played by artistic ancestors have the potential to function as Buddhist rituals, whether those aesthetic and stylistic features surface in pin peat songs or in hip hop. Those aesthetic practices entail a modality of being historical that partially connects with but exceeds historicism’s approach to Buddhism, temporality, and history by enacting relations of mutual care that bring the living and dead to be ontologically coeval. Such relational practices bring me to conclude with a brief discussion rethinking what post-genocide remembrance sounds like and feels like. Keywords: popular music; efficacy; musical aesthetics; historicism; Buddhist ethics; ontologies of living–dead relations; post-genocide remembrance 1.

  • FDW 7708 EDAN & TOM FITZGERALD Edan's Echo Party
    As if it were possible, Edan adds even further color to his newest release, Echo Party, with Edan’s Echo Party Movie, an energetic visual expression of his music. Produced/directed by Tom Fitzger- ald, Cut Chemist’s go-to video man who works also for Cinefamily in L.A., Edan’s Echo Party Movie is a fast-paced, retro conglomeration of unrelated and interesting video clips from the 60's, 70’s and 80’s that prove to be like a Sour Patch Kid for the eye. Cut in perfect harmony with Edan’s music, the movie is an ideal synch for Echo Party’s multi-elemental vibe where, using Traffic’s extensive back catalogue of old school hip-hop, Edan mixes, reworks, and adds layers of his own instrumentation to create an eclectic blend of psychedlia and beats. The movie cuts in and out of old Indian/Bollywood films, spray painting graffiti artists, children operating computers, vintage ads, risqué cartoons, and everything in between. Set to debut officially at the WFMU Record Fair this October, Edan’s Echo Party Movie is a trip you don’t want to miss. Like the LP, each DVD cover is hand-stamped by the artist himself in one of five unique designs adding further to the artistic flair that could only be Edan's. Offered exclusively from the good folks here at Five Day Weekend, Edan’s Echo Party Movie is a piece of musical artistry that should grace every music lover’s collection. ORDER CUT OFF DATE FOR THIS ITEM: OCT 19th Format: DVD (Region Free) Cat.

  • 1 Gendered Modernity in Cambodia: the Rise of Women in the Music
    Gendered Modernity in Cambodia: The Rise of Women in the Music Industry LinDa Saphan, Ph.D Assistant Professor of Sociology College of Mount Saint Vincent, New York, New York Abstract Cambodian popular music from 1950 on is closely linked to the social and political situation of the times. In the second half of the 20th century Cambodia went through many radical political changes in a very short period of time. Those changes are reflected in the changing nature and role of popular music and rock and roll in Cambodia. Modernity in Cambodia was seen as both Western and the prerogative of men (Berman 1988). But in the 1960s women took center stage in Cambodian popular music, displaying a new type of womanhood and creating their own path to modernity. Thus the music of the prewar era sheds light on the Cambodian process of modernization, as well as the changing role for modern Khmer women. This article will highlight two women who were among the most revered and remain popular icons in Cambodia today: Ros Serey Sothea and Pen Ran. In these two women we find two divergent ways of articulating modernity, the first more hegemonic, traditional, and idealized; the second a new conception of womanhood, influenced by notions of modernity adapted from the West. They each in their own way maneuvered their identity as modern women and reinterpreted the prevailing notion of Khmer womanhood. 1 Introduction In the second half of the twentieth century Cambodia went through many political and social changes in a short period of time. The country had been under the French Protectorate, established in 1867 to protect Cambodia from invasion by Thailand (then called Siam), for almost a century.

  • Don't Think I've Forgotten: Cambodia's Lost Rock and Roll
    PRESENTS DON’T THINK I’VE FORGOTTEN: CAMBODIA’S LOST ROCK AND ROLL Directed by John Pirozzi, USA/Cambodia, 2014, 106 minutes, In English, Khmer, and French with English Subtitles Bookings & Press: Jim Browne Argot Pictures 646-732-3725 [email protected] DON’T THINK I’VE FORGOTTEN: CAMBODIA’S LOST ROCK AND ROLL Through the eyes, words and songs of its popular music stars of the 50’s, 60’s, and 70’s, DON’T THINK I’VE FORGOTTEN: CAMBODIA’S LOST ROCK AND ROLL examines and unravels Cambodia’s tragic past. Combining interviews with surviving musicians and never-before-seen archival material and rare songs, the film tracks the winding course of Cambodian music as it morphs into a unique style of rock and roll. A vibrant musical culture that was nearly lost forever under the brutal Khmer Rouge regime is revived and celebrated. ABOUT THE FILM: During the 60’s and early 70’s, as the war in Vietnam threatened its borders, a new music scene emerged in Cambodia that took Western rock and roll and stood it on its head – creating a sound like no other. Cambodian musicians crafted this sound from the various rock music styles sweeping America, England, and France, adding the unique melodies and hypnotic rhythms of their traditional mu- sic. The beautiful singing of their renowned female vocalists became the final touch that made this mix so enticing. But as Cambodian society - young creative musicians in particular - embraced western culture and flourished under its influence, the rest of the country was rapidly moving to war.
