  • Bates Belk Biography
    BATES BELK BIOGRAPHY Bates Belk is a global recording artist and music producer whose high energy, boundary-pushing songs and remixes have moved international audiences on dance floors in Paris, London, Amsterdam, Berlin, Tokyo, Rio de Janeiro and USA audiences in New York City, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago and Miami. In 2015, after 20 years of solely being based in New York City, Bates relocated to Berlin, Germany, where he continues to operate BB3 Dynamics Records LLC (www.BB3Dynamics.com) with offices in both Berlin and New York City. ​ ​ Bates globally released two Techno EPs in late 2015. The first Techno EP was released on 9 October, 2015 entitled Life Trichotomy containing a selection of philosophically-based theatrical ​ ​ Techno compositions written in Berlin, New York and London. The second Techno EP was released on 13 November, 2015 entitled Life Trichotomy Reincarnated – The ​ Remixes containing songs remixed by other artists from the Life Trichotomy EP. ​ ​ ​ In 2014 and 2015, Bates globally released a series of 6 electronic dance songs with the first song released in 2014 entitled OUTTASIGHT, followed by 2015 releases of the songs It’s in the ​ ​ ​ Mind, Bionic Power (Pushing Harder, Jumping Higher), Danger with a Stranger and Get Me to ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ the Disco. Bates is currently producing his début album in Berlin, which contains collaborations ​ with over 40 Berlin-based artists. Bates was born and raised in El Paso, Texas, USA. Growing up in a region of the United States not particularly known for its acceptance of the free-thinking outsider, Bates found in music something that could help him make sense of the world and partially fill the void caused by the lack of artistic encouragement.

  • Flav Martin & Jerry Marotta Soul Redemption 2018
    Flav Martin & Jerry Marotta Soul Redemption 2018 Album Review by Malcolm Moore www.malcolmmooremusic.com “To be fully alive, fully human, and completely awake is to be continually thrown out of the nest. To live fully is to be always in no-man's-land, to experience each moment as completely new and fresh. To live is to be willing to die over and over again. ” ― Pema Chödrön Soul Redemption by Flav Martin & Jerry Marotta is a beautiful collection of songs that take the listener on a secret journey of the soul. Martin composed most of these songs in a friendly and personal way (English AND Spanish!) that makes it seem like he’s talking directly to you. In addition to that, the album features his gorgeous guitar work that ranges all over the spectrum; everything from pop rock to flamenco! The sonic architect on this glorious effort is none other than famous drummer icon, Jerry Marotta (Peter Gabriel, Paul McCartney, Sarah McLachlan). Marotta’s production values are impeccable, as usual, and the team of A-list players he selected are spectacular. The band includes Tony Levin (King Crimson, Paul Simon, John Lennon) on bass, Peter Primamore (film/TV composer) on piano, and Mark Schulman (Chris Botti, Suzanne Vega) on guitar. The album was recorded at the illustrious Dreamland Recording Studios in West Hurley, New York. Tracks: 1. Soul Redemption- Radiant opening song that features a trio of diverse and textural guitars, including; Flav Martin, Mark Schulman, and Thor Jensen (SWB). Lyrically inviting and mysterious, this song welcomes the listener by floating in the door like a feather.

  • Icebreaker: Apollo
    Icebreaker: Apollo Start time: 7.30pm Running time: 2 hours 20 minutes with interval Please note all timings are approximate and subject to change Martin Aston looks into the history behind Apollo alongside other works being performed by eclectic ground -breaking composers. When man first stepped on the moon, on July 20th, 1969, ‘ambient music’ had not been invented. The genre got its name from Brian Eno after he’d released the album Discreet Music in 1975, alluding to a sound ‘actively listened to with attention or as easily ignored, depending on the choice of the listener,’ and which existed on the, ‘cusp between melody and texture.’ One small step, then, for the categorisation of music, and one giant leap for Eno’s profile, which he expanded over a series of albums (and production work) both song-based and ambient. In 1989, assisted by his younger brother Roger (on piano) and Canadian producer Daniel Lanois, Eno provided the soundtrack for Al Reinert’s documentary Apollo: the trio’s exquisitely drifting, beatific sound profoundly captured the mood of deep space, the suspension of gravity and the depth of tranquillity and awe that NASA’s astronauts experienced in the missions that led to Apollo 11’s Neil Armstrong taking that first step on the lunar surface. ‘One memorable image in the film was a bright white-blue moon, and as the rocket approached, it got much darker, and you realised the moon was above you,’ recalls Roger Eno. ‘That feeling of immensity was a gift: you just had to accentuate the majesty.’ In 2009, to celebrate the 40th anniversary of that epochal trip, Tim Boon, head of research at the Science Museum in London, conceived the idea of a live soundtrack of Apollo to accompany Reinert’s film (which had been re-released in 1989 in a re-edited form, and retitled For All Mankind.

Without these documents, the best investigative reporting in the world could not have produced a book, and the secrets of CIA mind-control work would have remained buried forever, as the men who knew them had always intended. From the documentary base, I was able to expand my knowledge through interviews and readings in the behavioral sciences. Neverthe- less, the final result is not the whole story of the CIA's attack on the mind. Only a few insiders could have written that, and they choose to remain silent. I have done the best I can to make the book as accurate as possible, but I have been hampered by the refusal of most of the principal characters to be interviewed and by the CIA's destruction in 1973 of many of the key docu- ments.

  • Marotta.Griesgraber Profile.Indd
    Marotta/Griesgraber - profi le From fi rst listen, Jerry Marotta and Tom Griesgraberʼs music engenders a sense of freedom and ex- perience; of new adventures led by experienced guides. What unfolds is a series of refreshingly new stories with unusual and memorable characters, all told without words, where narrative and dialogue feel present but are left for the listener to fi ll in with their own details. Both Jerry and Tom are multi-instrumentalists, but their specialties combine one of the worldʼs oldest instruments and one of its newest: drums and the Chapman Stick. While itʼs the sum of the parts that makes for this duoʼs creative whole, their individual histories give a fascinating background to the sto- ries in their music. Originally from Ohio, Jerryʼs professional career began shortly after high school with the band Orleans and their smash hit Still The One. As fate would have it this track got the attention of Peter Gabriel who was embarking upon his solo career after leaving the band Genesis. While working with Peter over the next ten years, Jerry was able to develop his own voice; a sound that would defi ne an entire movement in popular music. In the process he wrote a chapter in the history of modern rock drumming that estab- lished him as a player without peer. Jerryʼs uncanny time feel and sense of orchestration quickly attracted the notice of top artists the world over. Hall & Oats, Tears for Fears, Stevie Nicks, Paul McCartney, Elvis Costello, David Sylvian and Robert Fripp, Suzanne Vega, The Indigo Girls, Sarah McLachlan, Jewel, Ani DiFranco, 10,000 Mani- acs, Tony Levin, John Mayer and countless others have sought him out for their records.
