Sascha Ring, alias Apparat, verrät im KEYS-Interview alles über die Produktion zu „III“, dem neuesten Werk der Berliner Band. oderats drittes Album ist nicht so Wie gestaltet sich das Übertragen der KEYS: Warum habt ihr euch entschieden, üppig arrangiert wie etwa typi- neuen Songs in den Live-Kontext? ein Modularsystem zu nutzen? M sche Solo-Releases von Apparat, Sascha Ring: Da gibt es diesmal einen Sascha Ring: Da muss ich ein bisschen aber wesentlich intelligenter als das meiste, kleinen Stolperstein, weil wir bei dieser Platte ausholen. Ich hatte ja vor einiger Zeit einen was sonst dieser Tage unter dem Schlag- ziemlich viele Sessions gemacht haben und Motorradunfall. Als ich danach in meiner wort „elektronische Musik“ in den Charts zu auch mal mit einem Modularsystem einfach Wohnung auf der Couch lag, um mich fi nden ist.

Aus auszukurieren, ist mir tatsächlich unten vor Ring feiern auf „III“ weiter einen Sound, der den Audio-Würsten – so nennen wir die der Haustür das Motorrad geklaut worden. mehr ist als die Summe seiner Teile. Das Resultate solcher Sessions – haben wir dann Da man mir sowieso verboten hatte, weiter Geheimnis ihrer Zusammenarbeit: Kompro- Teile herausgeschnitten. Die sind natürlich in Motorrad zu fahren, dachte ich mir: „Cool, misse eingehen, ohne sich kompromittieren Stein gemeißelt. Das kann man so nie wieder genau das Geld, was ich sonst für ein neues zu lassen. rekonstruieren. Und versuchen, es ungefähr Bike ausgegeben hätte, investiere ich jetzt in nachzubauen, fetzt auch nicht. Da nimmt ein Modularsystem.“ In den drei Monaten, die KEYS: Sascha, ihr bereitet euch gerade man dann doch lieber die Parts und spielt ich auf der Couch verbringen musste, habe auf die ersten Konzerte eurer Tour vor. etwas anderes drüber oder so. ich musikalisch echt nichts hinbekommen, 22 KEYS 04/2016 www.keys.de ich konnte mich aber mit dem Thema Modularsystem beschäftigen. Als Erstes habe ich mir ein Make-Noise- Koffer-System geholt. Und obwohl ich bei diesem Frankfurt am Main Thema schon einen Background besitze und früher auch viel mit dem Nord Modular oder MaxMSP gemacht 7. – 10. 4. 2016 habe, musste ich mich doch erst mal wieder mit den Grundkonzepten beschäftigen – Steuerspannungen, den Audiowegen und so weiter. Nach dem Make-Noise- Koffer ist noch mehr dazu gekommen. Sachen von Mutable Instruments zum Beispiel. KEYS: Wie habt ihr das System dann eingesetzt? Sascha Ring: Das Interessante ist, dass das System am Ende gar nicht für Synthese benutzt wurde. Ich habe gesampelt. Es gibt von Qu-Bit so ein Sampling-Modul – eigentlich ist das ein Granular-System, aber die Granu- lar-Features sind ziemlich rudimentär. Das Ausgangsma- terial bestand ganz oft aus Stimmen. Was dann auch ein bisschen das Konzept fürs Album war. Entweder habe ich schnell etwas eingesungen oder wir haben Sachen aus Songideen genommen, die schon vorhanden waren. Im Modularsystem ist das dann moduliert worden, auch um es rhythmisch zu machen. In „Running“ kann man das gut hören. Dafür haben wir so ein African-Rhythm- Pattern genommen und am Ende hatte der Song einen Dreiviertel-Takt. Ein Techno-Walzer! Es gibt aber im yi: 18.01.2016 DU: 11.02.2016 Inland Hintergrund auch subtilere Sachen. Hall-Flächen zum • K Beispiel, für die dann Stimmen im Granular-Sampler Y kurz gedreht wurden, sodass nur noch ein Fragment üb- M rig blieb. Was dann, fast wie bei einem Wavetable, ganz C kurz geloopt wurde. Microsampling sozusagen. KEYS: In der ersten Single „Reminder“ gibt es auch einen interessanten Stimmen-Part im Chorus. Wie habt ihr diese Vocals bearbeitet? Sascha Ring: Das ist einfach nur gepitcht. Es klingt aber wie ein komplizierterer Effekt, weil es nicht meine Stimme ist. Das ist ein weiblicher Vocal-Part. Wir hatten hier mal Laila Samuelsen zu Gast, eine ziemlich coole Frau, die mir ein bisschen bei Songwriting-Problemen It’s my tune. helfen sollte. Ich bleibe da manchmal ein wenig stecken. Ich komme ja vom Techno. Laila hat dann versucht, mir ein paar Sachen zu zeigen. Wobei das nur bedingt Wirkung gezeigt hat. Dafür war es aber super, dass wir auf ihre Stimme zurückgreifen konnten. Als ich versucht habe, die Zeile „May burning bridges light my way“ zu singen, klang das „May“ immer wie bei einem Schaf. Ich habe dann Leila gefragt, ob sie das mal probieren Seien Sie mit dabei und machen Sie die könnte, und weil sie recht hoch gesungen hat, wurde Musikmesse 2016 zu Ihrem Event.

  • May 18, 2016 for Immediate Release WATCH MODERAT's “RUNNING
    May 18, 2016 For Immediate Release WATCH MODERAT’S “RUNNING” VIDEO https://youtu.be/tVawpT44Hrk MODERAT KICK OFF NORTH AMERICAN TOUR THIS FRIDAY MODERAT’S III OUT NOW VIA MUTE/MONKEYTOWN ModerAt, the alliance of electronic heavy weights, Modeselektor and AppArAt, kick off their North American tour in support of new album, III, this Friday in New York. They’ll be joined throughout by longtime creative collaborators, PfadfiNderei, who will take the reins on visual production. Last week, Moderat announced the release of the album’s second single, “RuNNiNg,” which presents a highly emotive kind of pop, built for dancing, but never simple. Today, the trio reveals the single’s visual accompaniment, directed by JAkob GruNert. Grunert uses the incessant momentum of “Running” to narrate a pilot’s final flight in the Mojave Desert. After abandoning his plane in an aircraft boneyard, the pilot grapples with the frailty of purpose and the pursuit of rebirth. The story goes hand-in-hand with Apparat’s description of “Running” in that the song is about being part of a mass that constantly needs to move to function, but a mass that’s not deciding directions by itself. Mute/MoNkeytown will release “Running,” featuring the exclusive b-side, “90% WAsser,” on May 20th. The digital bundle includes remixes by Shed and KiNK. The “RuNNiNg” 10”, available July 1st, will feature both remixes, and the “RuNNiNg” 12”, available July 15th, will feature the original track and exclusive b-side. WAtch “RuNNiNg” Video – https://youtu.be/tVawpT44Hrk ListeN To “RuNNiNg (Shed Remix)” – https://souNdcloud.com/moNkeytowNrecords/moderAt-ruNNiNg-shed-remix/ “RemiNder” Video – https://youtu.be/cJwsNUoazUg ModerAt Tour DAtes (tix oN sale via www.moderat.fm.): Thu.

  • Some Albums to Keep Your Toes Warm This October Pt 2
    Some Albums To Keep Your Toes Warm This October Pt 2. Bittles‘ Magazine | Record Review I was arm-wrestling a tiger the other day (my editor told me I had to make the beginning of my articles more exciting) when I suddenly realised that I had no time for such frivolity as I had some great albums to review. Quickly admitting defeat, I retreated to my listening studio (bedroom) and immersed myself in some of the fantastic records that will be hitting the record store shelves this October. By JOHN BITTLES We have the UK house of Huxley, the indie bleakness of Grouper, the disco diva-isms of Munk, the techno bass of Distal and so much more. But really, in a month when there is, finally, a new album by Glaswegian duo Slam, there is only one place we can begin. Stuart McMillan and Orde Meikle have long been established as bona fide legends of the house and techno scene! Their record label Soma is over 400 releases old, their DJ sets at clubs like The Sub Club and The Arches in Glasgow are discussed with an air of awed reverence, and, as Slam, the duo have released some of the finest electronic music known to man. And now, in the year 2014 they give us their first album in seven years with the deep and moody brilliance of Reverse Proceed. The cinematic ambience of Tokyo Subway, Visual Capture and the title track open proceedings and are the perfect introduction to the deliciously deep sounds to come. In fact it’s not until the techno futurism of Synchronicity that we even get our very first sign of a beat.

  • Dans Natten Væk Med Tyske Modeselektor
    2013-02-07 21:00 CET Dans natten væk med tyske Modeselektor VEGA, Live Nation og FROST præsenterer Dans natten væk med tyske Modeselektor Programmet for din lillefredags-fest er sikret torsdag den 14. februar. Modeselektor indtager nemlig VEGA med både artist talk, koncert og efterfølgende fest i Ideal Bar. Som perfekt opvarmning til Modeselektors koncert giver den tyske producerduo et eksklusivt gæste-dj-sæt i Ideal Bar. Fra kl. 18-20 kigger makkerparret Gernot Bronsert og Sebastian Szary forbi med et udvalg af deres yndlingsplader, som de vil spille og præsentere i dialog med P6 Beat- radioværten Carsten Holm. Arrangementet er gratis. Kontrolleret og dansabelt kaos i Store VEGA Sebastian Szary og Gernot Bronsert er musikalske legebørn, som laver musik, der ikke kun kan sættes én betegnelse på. Deres tracks byder på en overflod af uimodståelige grooves med melodisk kant, hvirvlet ind i electronica, dance, techno og hiphop. Duoen betegner det selv som et kontrolleret kaos. Men det er et kaos, som resulterer i både begejstrede anmeldere og et ry som en sveddryppende intens og hyperenergisk live-oplevelse. Der blev således uddelt superlativer efter Modeselektors koncert på årets Roskilde Festival, hvor duoen fyrede op under Apollo-scenen. De to producere har da også udtalt, at de ser sig selv mere som et live-act end studiemusikere. Prominente gæstevokalister På album er Modeselektor dog også leveringsdygtige. Deres nye album Monkeytown (2011) har fået fem stjerner i Gaffa og Soundvenue samt 7.4 ud af 10 hos Pitchfork. De mange kollaborationer med forskellige musikalske kollegaer bliver i særdeleshed fremhævet, og det er da også prominente navne som medvirker på albummet bl.a.

  • Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: an Analysis Into Graphic Design's
    Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres by Vivian Le A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems (Honors Scholar) Presented May 29, 2020 Commencement June 2020 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Vivian Le for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems presented on May 29, 2020. Title: Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres. Abstract approved:_____________________________________________________ Ryann Reynolds-McIlnay The rise of digital streaming has largely impacted the way the average listener consumes music. Consequentially, while the role of album art has evolved to meet the changes in music technology, it is hard to measure the effect of digital streaming on modern album art. This research seeks to determine whether or not graphic design still plays a role in marketing information about the music, such as its genre, to the consumer. It does so through two studies: 1. A computer visual analysis that measures color dominance of an image, and 2. A mixed-design lab experiment with volunteer participants who attempt to assess the genre of a given album. Findings from the first study show that color scheme models created from album samples cannot be used to predict the genre of an album. Further findings from the second theory show that consumers pay a significant amount of attention to album covers, enough to be able to correctly assess the genre of an album most of the time.

  • MODERAT III: Le Date: 28 Aprile Milano, Alcatraz 29 Aprile Roma, Spazio Novecento
    MODERAT III: Le date: 28 aprile Milano, Alcatraz 29 aprile Roma, Spazio Novecento 26/01/2016 Gernot Bronsert, Sebastian Szary (aka Modeselektor)e Sascha Ring (aka Apparat) tornano in Italia per due imperdibili date per presentare il nuovo atteso album della loro creatura, MODERAT III, in uscita il 1 aprile per Monkeytown Records e definitiva consacrazione del progetto Moderat. Perfezione maniacale, ma anche felicità creativa, ed innata capacità a completarsi artisticamente l'uno con l'altro. L'unione fra i tedeschi Modeselektor ed Apparat nel progetto Moderat è davvero una delle avventure più esaltanti nella musica elettronica dell'ultimo decennio. Lo è per la statura dei singoli protagonisti: i Modeselektor fin dal loro debutto, con la loro techno creativa e piena di colpi di scena, si sono guadagnati i favori della stampa specializzata ma anche di star come Thom Yorke (prima loro fan e poi direttamente collaboratore), Apparat dal canto suo sia come solista che in collaborazione con Ellen Allien si è guadagnato la fama di producer incredibilmente bravo e sensibile nello sposare elettronica, ritmi e fortissimo senso melodico. Risultato: entrambi ormai, ad ogni apparizione italiana, radunano pubblici foltissimi e inanellano sold out. Moderat diventa il modo migliore per unire il potenziale artistico di queste due entità così importanti. Non si sovrappongono fra di loro in questo progetto, diventano invece perfettamente complementari: la potenza ritmica e l'impatto ipnotico dei Modeselektor, la preziosità dei ricami armonici e melodici di Apparat. Un equilibrio perfetto, a cui si arriva peraltro non senza fatica. Il loro primo lavoro in comune, l'ep “Auf Kosten Der Gesundheit” (2003), racconta già dal titolo (“Al costo della salute”) quanto è stato complesso arrivare alla giusta misura e alla giusta interazione, figlie di sfibranti sedute in studio di registrazione all'insegna del più maniacale perfezionismo.

  • ORCHESTRA of BUBBLES BPC125 Ellen Allien and Apparat, Two
    ELLEN ALLIEN&APPARAT ORCHESTRA OF BUBBLES BPC125 LP/CD BARCODE: LP: UPC A 661956712517 CD : UPC A 661956712524 17.04.2006 Ellen Allien and Apparat, two headstrong musicians who indeed differ in their musical context but still come together not just at the peripheral rims, collaborated on an album together: „Orchestra of Bubbles“. By a deep plunge into the world of sound of their counterpart both are trying to find gateways in order to expand their own possibilities. While Apparat used to stand for an algorithms-based aesthetics and Ellen Allien fathomed the possible heights and depths of the dance floor widthways as well, for their joint production they dabble in a principle which electronic music is dedicated to from the very beginning and which is now only spelled differently: Contingency. Meaning, Ellen Allien and Apparat indeed take on the connections between Techno and IDM, but extend the original horizon with their thoughtful way of production where they interpenetrate, empathise and move their own artistic borders. This becomes precise in those moments when Apparat not just aims at the dance floor but reaches it with the help of Ellen Allien’s keen sense for a heavy on bass-keynote that gives his melancholic superstructure its cathedral of sound-adhesion. On the other hand Ellen Allien’s claim to produce „brainish“ music isn’t just an empty phrase but comes alive again. By using their special Lego-block beats the musicians create a playful re-definition of abstract Elektro, which could be seen as the gateway between both of them and at the same time synchronizes their heart beats.

  • Popular Music in Germany the History of Electronic Music in Germany
    Course Title Popular Music in Germany The History of Electronic Music in Germany Course Number REMU-UT.9811001 SAMPLE SYLLABUS Instructors’ Contact Information Heiko Hoffmann [email protected] Course Details Wednesdays, 6:15pm to 7:30pm Location of class: NYU Berlin Academic Center, Room “Prenzlauer Berg” (tbc) Prerequisites No pre-requisites Units earned 2 credits Course Description From Karlheinz Stockhausen and Kraftwerk to Giorgio Moroder, D.A.F. and the Euro Dance of Snap!, the first nine weeks of class consider the history of German electronic music prior to the Fall of the Wall in 1989. We will particularly look at how electronic music developed in Germany before the advent of house and techno in the late 1980s. One focus will be on regional scenes, such as the Düsseldorf school of electronic music in the 1970s with music groups such as Cluster, Neu! and Can, the Berlin school of synthesizer pioneers like Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze and Manuel Göttsching, or Giorgio Moroder's Sound of Munich. Students will be expected to competently identify key musicians and recordings of this creative period. The second half of the course looks more specifically at the arrival of techno, a new musical movement, and new technology in Berlin and Germany in the turbulent years after the Fall of the Berlin Wall, up to the present. Indeed, Post-Wall East Berlin, full of abandoned spaces and buildings and deserted office blocks, was the perfect breeding ground for the youth culture that would dominate the 1990s and led techno pioneers and artists from the East and the West to take over and set up shop.

Mochipet) has been tinkering with electronics since he was a child. However, not until he added music to the equation, did something special begin to take shape. Having grown up listening to metal guitar, avant-garde jazz, and mainstream hip-hop, David’s eclectic taste can now be seen in his music – ever changing, and always evolving. His fervency for diversity can also be noted in the mixed bag of his many artist collaborations which include the likes of legendary skateboarder Ray Barbee (Powell Peralta), Techo producer Ellen Allien (Berlin), hip-hop MCs Mikah9 (Freestyle Fellowship), Casual (Hieroglyphics), and Raashan Ahmad (Crown City Rockers), electro Miami gangster Otto Von Schirach , booty bass rockstars 215 The Freshest Kids and Spank Rock (BigDada), mashup glitch tweeker Kid606 (Tigerbeat6), Edwardian suit-wearing Daedelus (Ninjatune), glitch popstars Jahcoozi (Kitty-Yo), and avant-garde jazz legend Weasel Walter (Flying Luttenbach- ers).
