Snare Drums to Get the Sound I Want CONTENTS FEATURES: HAL BLAINE Hal Blaine is one of the most respected studio drummers on the music scene today. For 22 years he has recorded with prac- tically all of the major artists and is still going strong. His longevity in the business is phenomenal. With all of that ex- perience behind him, Blaine has much to share with up and coming drummers, and does so both in MD's interview and in his introductory column "Staying in Tune." 10 FAMOUDOU DON MOYE Drawing from the tradition of African music, ancient theatre and religion. The Art Ensemble of Chicago is truly a unique and creative musical force. Famoudou Don Moye, the inven- tive drummer/percussionist with the Art Ensemble explains the concept of their music. His own approach to the music involves experimentation and exploration of the different percussive sounds that can be obtained. 14 GIL MOORE As drummer with the rock band Triumph. Gil Moore is con- scientious about his art, stating that in order to expand tech- nically, it is most beneficial to experiment with a diversity of musical styles. Moore is also very attentive to his equipment and knowledgeable about how to achieve the best sound from his drums in live and recording situations. 22 PERCUSSION PIONEER: AN MD SPECIAL DOUBLE PLAY: DAVID PETERS AND REPORT ON GAUGER R.I.M.S. 18 AND BOBBY CAMPO OF LEROUX 28 MD VISITS THE PERCUSSION INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY 25 COLUMNS: EDITOR'S OVERVIEW 2 STRICTLY TECHNIQUE Quadragrip READERS' PLATFORM 5 by Michael Welch 54 6 IT'S QUESTIONABLE ASK A PRO by Cheech Iero 61 ROCK PERSPECTIVES IN MEMORIAM Converting Those Old Rhythms, Part I Cozy Cole by David Garibaldi 32 by Scott K.

  • Anthony Braxton Five Pieces 1975
    Anthony Braxton Five Pieces 1975 ANTHONY BRAXTON Five Pieces 1975 Arista AL 4064 (LP) I would like to propose now, at the beginning of this discussion, that we set aside entirely the question of the ultimate worth of Anthony Braxton's music. There are those who insist that Braxton is the new Bird, Coltrane, and Ornette, the three-in-one who is singlehandedly taking the Next Step in jazz. There are others who remain unconvinced. History will decide, and while it is doing so, we can and should appreciate Braxton's music for its own immediate value, as a particularly contemporary variety of artistic expression. However, before we can sit down, take off our shoes, and place the enclosed record on our turntables, certain issues must be dealt with. People keep asking questions about Anthony Braxton, questions such as what does he think he is doing? Since these questions involve judgments we can make now, without waiting for history, we should answer them, and what better way to do so than to go directly to the man who is making the music? "Am I an improviser or a composer?" Braxton asks rhetorically, echoing more than one critical analysis of his work. "I see myself as a creative person. And the considerations determining what's really happening in the arena of improvised music imply an understanding of composition anyway. So I would say that composition and improvisation are much more closely related than is generally understood." This is exactly the sort of statement Braxton's detractors love to pounce on. Not only has the man been known to wear cardigan sweaters, smoke a pipe, and play chess; he is an interested in composing as in improvising.

This new recording, The 3dom Factor, features Barry Altschul’s new trio with saxophonist Jon Irabagon and bassist Joe Fonda in a program of Altschul compositions. On January 6, 2013, Barry Altschul, who was born in the south Bronx and first started playing the drums on the local hard bop scene in the late 1950s, celebrated his 70th birthday. He is also quickly approaching five decades as a professional musician as his first “proper” gig was with the Paul Bley Trio at the inauguration of Slugs’, the (in)famous East Village bar, as a jazz club in 1964. In addition to playing with Bley, Altschul was active on New York’s bourgeoning free jazz scene of the 1960s, working with the likes of saxophonist Steve Lacy, trombonist Roswell Rudd as well as bassists Gary Peacock, Alan Silva and Steve Swallow and even performing with the Jazz Composer’s Orchestra. His familiarity with the tradition also led to performances with saxophonists Sonny Criss, Johnny Griffin, Lee Konitz, Art Pepper and Tony Scott, pianist Hampton Hawes and vocalist Babs Gonzalez, among others.

  • Bulletproof Radio, a State of High Performance. Dave Asprey
    Bulletproof Radio #729 Announcer: Bulletproof Radio, a state of high performance. Dave Asprey: You're listening to Bulletproof Radio with Dave Asprey. Today's episode is going to be a ton of fun because we're going to talk about psychedelics. We're going to talk about stress. We're going to talk about anxiety. And we're going to talk about vibrations. And no, I don't mean like having good vibes, although we'll probably talk about that too. I mean the kind of vibrations that physically affect your mitochondria, your cells, even your nervous system and things like that. Dr. Dave Rabin is a neuroscientist, board-certified psychiatrist, health tech entrepreneur, inventor, researcher, and a guy who's in clinical practice specialized in mental health disorders that are resistant to treatment, things like PTSD, things like substance abuse. And he's looked at chronic stress in humans for more than a decade and has some really good ideas on what we can do about it. So if you're ready to go deep, let's go. Dr. Dave, welcome to the show, Dr. David Rabin: Thank you so much for having me, Dave. It's a pleasure to be here. Dave Asprey: Dave. You're a weird guy. You studied psychodynamic psychotherapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, interpersonal therapy, motivational interviewing, oh, and ketamine assisted psychotherapy, medication assisted psychotherapy and things like that. As well as, we're going to get into it later, the Apollo Neuro, the device that uses vibrations to hack the nervous system. It's pretty esoteric and pretty wide ranging.

    Whose Art Is It? - The New Yorker 2/8/16, 11:06 AM Save paper and follow @newyorker on Twitter In the South Bronx DECEMBER 21, 1992 ISSUE Whose Art Is It? BY JANE KRAMER t could be argued that the South Bronx John Ahearn PHOTOGRAPH BY DUANE bronzes fit right into the neighborhood MICHALS —that whatever a couple of people said about bad role models and negative Iimages and political incorrectness, there was something seemly and humane, and even, in a rueful, complicated way, “correct,” about casting Raymond and his pit bull, Daleesha and her roller skates, and Corey and his boom box and basketball in the metal of Ghiberti, Donatello, and Rodin and putting them up on pedestals, like patron saints of Jerome Avenue. John Ahearn, who made the statues, says that he thought of them more as guardians than as saints, because their job was ambiguous, standing, as they did for a couple of days last year, between the http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/1992/12/21/whose-art-is-it Page 1 of 47 Whose Art Is It? - The New Yorker 2/8/16, 11:06 AM drab new station house of the city’s 44th Police Precinct and what is arguably one of its poorest, saddest, shabbiest, most drug-infested, AIDS-infected, violent neighborhoods. John himself is ambiguous about “ambiguous.” He says that when the city asked him to “decorate” the precinct he thought of the Paseo de la Reforma, in Mexico City, with its bronze heroes—a mile of heroes. He thought that maybe it would be interesting—or at least accurate to life on a calamitous South Bronx street, a street of survivors—to commemorate a few of the people he knew who were having trouble surviving the street, even if they were trouble themselves.

  • The Heart of Rock and Soul by Dave Marsh
    The Heart of Rock and Soul by Dave Marsh 20 BE MY BABY, The Ronettes Produced by Phil Spector; written by Phil Spector, Ellie Greenwich, and Jeff Barry Philles 116 1963 Billboard: #2 DA DOO RON RON, The Crystals Produced by Phil Spector; written by Phil Spector, Ellie Greenwich, and Jeff Barry Philles 112 1963 Billboard: #3 CHRISTMAS (BABY PLEASE COME HOME), Darlene Love Produced by Phil Spector; written by Phil Spector, Ellie Greenwich, and Jeff Barry Philles 119 1963 Did not make pop charts To hear folks talk, Phil Spector made music out of a solitary vision. But the evidence of his greatest hits insists that he was heavily dependent on a variety of assistance. Which makes sense: Record making is fundamentally collaborative. Spector associates like engineer Larry Levine, arranger Jack Nitzsche, and husband-wife songwriters Jeff Barry and Ellie Greenwich were simply indispensable to his teen-art concoctions. Besides them, every Spector track featured a dozen or more musicians. The constant standouts were' drummer Hal Blaine, one of the most inventive and prolific in rock history, and saxophonist Steve Douglas. Finally, there were vast differences among Spector's complement of singers. An important part of Spector's genius stemmed from his ability to recruit, organize, and provide leadership within such a musical community. Darlene Love (who also recorded for Spector with the Crystals and Bob B. Soxx and the Blue Jeans) ranks just beneath Aretha Franklin among female rock singers, and "Christmas" is her greatest record, though it was never a hit. (The track probably achieved its greatest notice in the mid-eighties, when it was used over the opening credits of Joe Dante's film, Gremlins.) Spector's Wall of Sound, with its continuously thundering horns and strings, never seemed more massive than it does here.
