    PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 AND 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2007 Committee: Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Dr. John Makay Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Ron E. Shields Dr. Don McQuarie © 2007 Bradley C. Klypchak All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Between 1984 and 1991, heavy metal became one of the most publicly popular and commercially successful rock music subgenres. The focus of this dissertation is to explore the following research questions: How did the subculture of heavy metal music between 1984 and 1991 evolve and what meanings can be derived from this ongoing process? How did the contextual circumstances surrounding heavy metal music during this period impact the performative choices exhibited by artists, and from a position of retrospection, what lasting significance does this particular era of heavy metal merit today? A textual analysis of metal- related materials fostered the development of themes relating to the selective choices made and performances enacted by metal artists. These themes were then considered in terms of gender, sexuality, race, and age constructions as well as the ongoing negotiations of the metal artist within multiple performative realms. Occurring at the juncture of art and commerce, heavy metal music is a purposeful construction. Metal musicians made performative choices for serving particular aims, be it fame, wealth, or art. These same individuals worked within a greater system of influence. Metal bands were the contracted employees of record labels whose own corporate aims needed to be recognized.

  • To Design and Development of a Cost Effective Electronic Drum Kit
    International Journal of Engineering Research and Applications (IJERA) ISSN: 2248-9622 th International Conference on Industrial Automation and Computing (ICIAC- 12-13 April 2014) RESEARCH ARTICLE OPEN ACCESS To Design and Development of a Cost Effective Electronic Drum Kit Vikas Barai*, Prof. T.H.Nagrare** *(Department Of Computer Science, G H Raisoni College Of Engineering Nagpur, India Email: [email protected]) **(Assistant Professor, Department of Information Technology G H Raisoni College Of Engineering Nagpur, India Email: [email protected]) ABSTRACT The goal of the project is to create a Cost Effective electronic drum kit using piezoelectric sensors for various percussion instruments. The inputs to the kit are small drum pads, which house a piezoelectric transducer. The output voltage from this device is detected and its output is interfaced with microcontroller . This information is processed through a Drum sound controller module which controls audio playback. The background work focuses on the concepts of tracking the timing of musical signals, deriving information from them, and creating a musical accompaniment. The system will then generate an expressive drum beat to accompany the audio signal in real time. The system is intended as a practice tool as well as a means to observe the musical interaction that may occur between humans and machine. It would involve implementing on an EEPROM for additional sound storage. It will contain a single module which will carry all sound database and allow the player to make their own patches and it will make it independent from interfacing with a computer. Keywords - Arduino, Cost efficient drum kit, Electronic Drums, Home made percussion, Midi controllers, Piezo sensors.

  • Stewart Speer: a Drummer Who Won't Let the Odds Beat
    STEWART SPEER: A DRUMMER WHO WON’T LET THE ODDS BEAT HIM by Eric Myers ___________________________________________________ [This article appeared in the Sydney Morning Herald on September 15, 1981.] his week the legendary 53-year-old drummer Stewart Speer embarks on a 10- week tour of Australia with Max Merritt, the former Australian rock star now T based in England. This period of employment breaks a long drought for an important figure in Australian jazz history. Apart front a similar tour with Merritt last year, Speer has worked only occasionally since returning two years ago from England, where he spent most of the 1970s. Max Merritt & the Meteors, L-R, Speer, Lance Dixon, Merritt, Martin (Fuzz) Deniz, John Gourd… 1 Speer, with cigarette dangling… “I would like to be playing more, but I’m not sure about how to go about it,” said Speer recently. “I wouldn’t mind a regular gig, maybe with some electric players. I like a bit of noise.” “Of course I have been sick since I came back from England,” he says, ticking off an impressive series of afflictions — leg ulcers, cellulitis, gout and arthritis are just some of them. Physically, he is an awesome man — some 22 stone, although he is down from last year’s 25 stone — with a flowing white beard and long grey hair which seems to grow out of the sides of his ever-present peak cap. In performance, he establishes a formidable presence behind the array of cymbals and tom-toms which make up the modern drum-kit. Always there is a huge cloud of smoke pouring upwards from the cigarette which dangles nonchalantly from his lips.

Reason Drum Kits Introduction The Reason Drum Kits instrument is a Rack Extension version of the mighty popular Reason Drum Kits ReFill. Anyone with experience in professional studio work will tell you that recording drums is the most difficult and demanding part of any project. Hands down. Drum recording is a craft which takes decades to learn, yet never gets any easier. It's exhausting. It's expensive. It can make or break an entire production. Due to these challenging demands, the means for capturing the ultimate drum sound have always been out of reach for everyone except those who never get cold sweats from the tick tock of the studio clock. Until now. We took care of the hard part, and the result is Reason Drum Kits - a powerful and versatile drum tool that tears down the last barrier between the virtual studio workspace and the real drum recording studio, and closes the quality gap between “merely” professional and world class! Be the drummer - and the engineer! Traditionally, the structure of computer based drum tools has been dictated by the anatomy of the drum kit.

  • Choosing a Drum Set for Worship
    Choosing a Drum Set for Worship We hope this guide will help you find the right drum set and drum hardware that fits your playing style and needs. Whether it is an affordable starter set or a sophisticated, arena-worthy acoustic or electronic kit, this guide will help you identify the right combination of gear to match your budget and percussion skills. You will learn about the elements that go into making drums and cymbals, and what to consider when shopping for drums. Before choosing a drum set, you need to be familiar with the components that go into it, these include: The Snare Drum, the Bass Drum, one or more Mounted Toms and a Floor Tom. The two other essential components that complete a full drum set, Cymbals and Hardware. We have also included a section on how to reduce acoustic drum volume, a microphone alternative, and a section on electronic drums. If you are unfamiliar with any of the terms used here, please see the Glossary of Terms at the end of this document. Enjoy! Parts of the Drum Set ANATOMY OF A DRUM TOP (BATTER) HEAD: The most basic component of a drum, the head is a round membrane made of a synthetic material usually mylar, that is stretched across the shell, with varying degrees of tension. HOOP: The drum hoop is usually made of either cast or stamped metal, although some drummers prefer wood hoops. Hoops are constructed with a flange shaped to hold the head on the shell for tensioning. TENSION ROD: These mount through holes in the hoop and thread into the lug to maintain the desired tension.
