  • Blssm Paper Artist Statement
    !1 of !7 Simon DeBevoise Artist Statement Prof. Maria Sonevytsky 12.12.15 blssm: An Exploration of Cuteness, Consumer Culture and PC Music blssm is an experiment in aesthetics. Tackling a genre of unlimited ambition and excess, I realized quickly that my project could not be a limp imitation of PC Music; the music mandates instead a full-fledged devotion to the “kitsch imagery, catchy hooks, synthetic colours” (Tank Magazine, AG Cook) so central to figures like AG Cook, Hannah Diamond, SOPHIE and GFOTY. I used Hannah Diamond’s “Every Night” as an aural point of reference, reinterpreting the song’s poppy chord progression and setting my tempo to an upbeat 128 bpm. Layering big, shimmering, sawtooth synths over a syncopated kick drum and bass, I created a foundation with which I could engage with the camp and consumerism typically antithetical to the underground music scene yet so integral to the PC Music label. Recreating PC Music’s visual and aural aesthetic, I aim to consider the issues of gender and sexuality at play by framing the genre within discourses on Studio Audio Art, Cyborg Feminism, Japanese Kawaii culture, consumerism, and post-irony. To best introduce the uninformed listener to PC Music (which, importantly, stands for computer music and not politically correct music), I’ve included lyrics from Hannah Diamond’s “Pink and Blue:” We look good in pink and blue You love me, maybe it's true You say, ‘Baby, how are you?’ I’m okay, how about you? DeBevoise !2 of !7 Diamond’s facile rhymes and innocent lyrics craft an image of cuteness and middle-school naivety that play into PC Music’s brand of femininity.

  • Die Macht Der Marke
    # 2013/21 dschungel https://jungle.world/artikel/2013/21/die-macht-der-marke Weshalb Savages die Band der Stunde ist Die Macht der Marke Von Jan Tölva Die Sachverständigen der Popkultur sind sich einig: Savages ist die Band der Stunde. Wieso aber kommt der Sound der vier Londonerinnen derart gut an? Die Popkulturindustrie basiert zu einem großen Teil auf dem Prinzip des Hypes. Savages versetzen zurzeit, wie kaum eine andere Band der vergangenen Jahre, die schreibende Zunft von Visions bis New York Times in einen Zustand aufgeregt-abgeklärter Verzückung. Kaum verwunderlich, man könnte sogar sagen folgerichtig, denn Savages sind eine Konzeptband – am Reißbrett entworfen, um genau denjenigen zu gefallen, die derzeit die Popkulturspalten der Feuilletons dominieren. In seiner Spex-Titelstory schreibt Torsten Groß, das Haus von Sängerin Jehnny Beth und ihrem Lebenspartner Johnny Hostile, der auch »Silence Yourself«, das erste Album der Band, mitproduziert hat, sei »vollgestopft mit genau den richtigen Büchern und Platten«. Groß weiß, wovon er spricht. Viele Redaktionen werden heute von Journalisten bevölkert, deren Jugend wohl durch die erklärten Vorbilder der Savages geprägt war: Bauhaus, Joy Division, Einstürzende Neubauten. Den gegenwärtigen Exponenten des Popjournalismus stellen sich Savages so als späte Möglichkeit dar, sich zumindest im Rückblick einer wild erscheinenden Jugend zu versichern. Für die etwas Jüngeren symbolisiert die Band das unglücklicherweise knapp Verpasste. Im deutschsprachigen Raum markierte Jürgen Teipels Buch »Verschwende deine Jugend« 2001 den Beginn einer Achtziger-Nostalgie, an die auch Savages mit ihrer Ästhetik anknüpfen. Seit rund zehn Jahren revivalt alles, was mal Punk war, daraus geworden ist und für gewöhnlich unter dem Label Post-Punk zusammengefasst wird.
