NEWS from the GETTY News.Getty.Edu | Gettycommunications@Getty.Edu NEWS FROM THE GETTY news.getty.edu | [email protected] DATE: January 6, 2017 MEDIA CONTACT FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Valerie Tate Getty Communications (310) 440-6861 [email protected] Getty Presents Dungen and The Adventures of Prince Achmed Photos: Stills from The Adventures of Prince Achmed, Milestone Films LOS ANGELES – The J. Paul Getty Museum presents an original performance by the critically- acclaimed band Dungen on Tuesday, March 21, at the Getty Center. In its first composition for film, the Stockholm-based band presents a new mystical and vibrant live score to accompany the historic animated film The Adventures of Prince Achmed, created by the pioneering animator Lotte Reiniger. Taken from The Arabian Nights, the film tells the story of a wicked sorcerer who tricks Prince Achmed into mounting a magical flying horse and sending the rider on a flight to his death. But the prince foils the magician’s plan, and soars headlong into a series of wondrous adventures. When it premiered in Germany in 1926, The Adventures of Prince Achmed was hailed as the first full-length animated film. Ninety years later, this beautiful, mesmerizing and utterly seductive film, distinguished by Reininger's trademark cut-outs of intricate silhouettes, still stands as one of the great classics of animation. The members of Dungen built on the band's signature blend of psychedelic rock with Swedish and other folk music by immersing themselves in the groundbreaking visual language of this landmark film and the characters portrayed within. Dungen burst onto the international scene with its highly regarded album Ta Det Lugnt in 2004, and under the direction of multi- instrumentalist mastermind Gustav Ejstes, released nine full-length records and Courtesy of the Artist toured globally over the 15 fifteen years. The score for The Adventures of Prince Achmed is moody, evocative, stormy, and brimming with life. It provides both a summation of Dungen's musical journey thus far, and gives the group a chance to stretch out like never before. Here, the psychedelic rock is more bombastic, the softer passages more exquisite, the tension in their musical interplay more dramatic, the intentions remarkably robust. The unique score, both through the music and its live performance, becomes a transformative experience, revitalizing an under-recognized gem of cinematic history. Dungen presents The Adventures of Prince Achmed Date: Tuesday, March 21, 2017 Time: 7:30 p.m. Location: Getty Center, Harold M. Williams Auditorium Admission: $10 Tickets available for purchase on February 21, 2016. A pre-sale of a limited number of advance tickets will be available starting Monday, January 9, 2017.

  • Som Musikprojekt Har Dungen Pågått Sedan 1998. Det Startades Av Gustav Ejstes Som Sedan Dess Skriver Och Arrangerar Musiken
    Dungen Tio Bitar (SUBCD24) Som musikprojekt har Dungen pågått sedan 1998. Det startades av Gustav Ejstes som sedan dess skriver och arrangerar musiken. På så vis är Dungen en persons verk; det är en person som skapar låtarna. Men Dungen hade inte varit det det är om det inte vore för musikaliska möten. Ett av de möten som fått en central betydelse för hur Dungen låter är det med gitarristen Reine Fiske. Gustav och Reine träffades redan ett par år efter projektets födelse och sedan dess har gitarristens påverkan på låtarna bara blivit större. ”Reine Fiske har ett säreget tonspråk och uttryck”, säger Gustav. ”Han har ett sätt att traktera elgitarren som inte många har.” Det sättet ligger mycket nära Gustavs ljudmässiga vision och det har satt sina avtryck. Allra helst i den nya skivan. Om Gustav spelade mer själv på de förra albumen (Dungen, Stadsvandringar, Ta det lugnt) - gitarr, bas, trummor, flöjt, blev det i skapelseprocessen av den senaste plattan än mer av Reines bas och gitarr. Grunden till låtarna lägger de tillsammans. Gustav spelar en del och instruerar, Reine spelar. Efter det bjuder Gustav in andra musiker för, som han säger, ”resultatets bästa”. Det sättet jobbar han helst på, med en person i taget. ”Det fungerar i någon mening som i hip-hopen. En producent ligger ofta bakom allt och i det här fallet är jag producenten.” Inför arbetet med den nya skivan gjorde Gustav som med det förra albumet. Han isolerade sig några månader i ett hus i Småland i södra Sverige; för att kunna fokusera, ”för att hålla influenserna på avstånd”.

  • Dungen – Allas Sak
    Dungen – Allas Sak (41:42, CD, Smalltown Supersound / Rough Trade, 2015) Auch wenn die schwedische Band Dungen bereits seit Ende der Neunziger existiert, so sind sie doch in unseren Breiten nie über einen (kultigen) Geheimtipp- Status herausgekommen, während man schon mehrfach in den USA spielte und dort, neben den skandinavischen Nachbarländern, auf eine gewisse Fanbasis bauen kann. Vielleicht funktioniert es bei uns einfach nicht, dass sich die Formation gesanglich konsequent ihrer Muttersprache verpflichtet fühlt. Oder es hängt einfach auch damit zusammen, dass Dungen sich nicht so einfach in eine Schublade pressen lässt. So soll der Band wenigstens hier die verdiente Aufmerksamkeit geschenkt werden. Vom Grundsatz waren Dungen von Anfang an Retro, doch nach den anfänglich noch auftretenden ProgRock-Einflüssen, hat man mittlerweile einen sehr eigenständigen Stil zwischen Psychedelic, schwedischer Folklore und 60s Pop, sowie einiges an Improvisation kultiviert. Das wirkt oftmals zu Beginn etwas unspektakulär und klanglich antiquiert, doch Dungens Mastermind und Sänger Gustav Ejstes kreiert mit seinen Mitstreitern (u.a. Reine Fiske, Gitarre; Ex-Landberk, Motorpsycho) einen verspielten, verqueren Mikrokosmos, der auf Dauer doch mitreißt. So beginnt auch der aktuelle Longplayer „Allas Sak“ mit kürzeren Pop-Perlen im Sound der 60s und 70s, die nett anzuhören und fein arrangiert sind, doch es braucht eben eine gewisse Zeit, bis man als Hörer in die Musik hineingezogen wird. Doch spätestens wenn Dungen vermehrt auf Flötentöne vertraut, hin und wieder Saxophoneinschübe zu hören sind, aber vor allem die Gitarre verzerrt heult und eine ganz eigene rückwärts gerichtete Klangmagie in die Songs Einzug hält, dann wird diese Zeitreise zu einem vollen Erfolg. Das Werk gewinnt immer mehr an Schwung, was vielleicht auch daran liegt, dass man für dieses Album den Ansatz wählte, mit fertigen Songs ins Studio zu kommen, anstatt vieles im Live-Kontext spontan entstehen zu lassen.

  • Dungen – Häxan
    Dungen – Häxan (39:20, CD, Smalltown Supersound / Rough Trade, 2016) Inspiriert durch den 1926 entstandenen Animationsfilm „Die Abenteuer des Prinzen Achmed“, überrascht das aktuelle Dungen- Album „Häxan“ („Die Hexe“) als ein rein instrumentales, stilistisch etwas untypisches Werk des schwedischen Quartetts. Die Musik entstand als Auftragsarbeit zwischen den beiden letzten Studioalben „Skit I Allt“ (2010) und „Allas Sak“ (2015), jedoch war das Resultat dann wohl doch so ansprechend, dass man es auf Tonträger bannen wollte und den Record Store Day am 25. November als Veröffentlichungstermin wählte. Grundkomponenten sind der für Dungen typische Spätsechziger- Psychedelic, deutliche Anleihen an frühen Progressive Rock und schwedische Folklore. Doch während sonst auch immer leichtfüßiger Pop-Appeal die Songs durchzieht und instrumentale Ausflüge als willkommene Farbtupfer dienen, sind die 14 Tracks auf „Häxan“ wesentlich extremer und fast komplett von nordischer Melancholie durchzogen.

Der Prog-Einfluss tritt dafür schwelgerisch und sinfonisch zutage, weiche Mellotron- und Orgelklänge sorgen für verträumte Untertöne. Dies ist sicherlich dem Film geschuldet, denn die Abenteuer der Protagonisten um Prinz Achmed, Aladdin dem Zauberer, und der Hexe gehörten eben ansprechend untermalt. Vor allem das abschließende ‚Andarnas Krig‘ ist dem Titel entsprechend ein infernaler, musikalischer Kampf.

Traditionally, the purposefulness and relevance of a singer-songwriter were defined by something unique in their lyrical acumen, vocal skills and/or guitar or piano accompaniment. In the 1990s this paradigm was tested by the trend towards larger orchestrastion and towards electronic orchestration. In the 2000s it became harder and harder to give purpose and meaning to a body of work mostly relying on the message. Many singer-songwriters of the 2000s belonged to "Generation X" but sang and wrote for members of "Generation Y". Since "Generation Y" was inherently different from all the generations that had preceeded it, it was no surprise that the audience for these singer-songwriters declined. Since the members of "Generation X" were generally desperate to talk about themselves, it was not surprising that the number of such singer- songwriters increased. The net result was an odd disconnect between the musician and her or his target audience. The singer-songwriters of the 2000s generally sounded more "adult" because... they were.
