  • Ecological Models of Musical Structure in Pop-Rock, 1950–2019
    Ecological Models of Musical Structure in Pop-rock, 1950–2019 Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Nicholas J. Shea, M.A., B.Ed. Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2020 Dissertation Committee: Anna Gawboy, Advisor and Dissertation Co-Advisor Nicole Biamonte, Dissertation Co-Advisor Daniel Shanahan David Clampitt Copyright by Nicholas J. Shea 2020 Abstract This dissertation explores the relationship between guitar performance and the functional components of musical organization in popular-music songs from 1954 to 2019. Under an ecological theory of affordances, three distinct interdisciplinary approaches are employed: empirical analyses of two stylistically contrasting databases of popular-music song transcriptions, a motion-capture study of performances by practicing musicians local to Columbus, Ohio, and close readings of works performed and/or composed by popular- music guitarists. Each offers gestural analyses that provide an alternative to the object- oriented approach of standard popular-music analysis, as well as clarification on issues related to style, such as the socially determined differences between “pop” and “rock” music. ii Dedication To Anna Gawboy, who is always in my corner. iii Acknowledgments Here I face the nearly insurmountable task of thanking those who have helped to develop this research. Even as all written and analytical content in this document is my own, I cannot deny the incredible value collaboration has brought to this inherently interdisciplinary study. I am extremely fortunate to have a small team of individuals on which I can rely for mentorship and support and whose research backgrounds contribute greatly to the domains of this document.

  • PRESSEMITTEILUNG 08.03.2018 Beach House Im
    FKP Scorpio Konzertproduktionen GmbH Große Elbstr. 277 a ∙ 22767 Hamburg Tel. (040) 853 88 888 ∙ www.fkpscorpio.com PRESSEMITTEILUNG 08.03.2018 Beach House im Oktober mit neuem Album auf Tour Die Sieben steht im Zentrum: Das kommende siebte Album von Beach House trägt den Titel „7“, und insgesamt hat das Duo aus Baltimore damit 77 Titel gemeinsam veröffentlicht. Die Dream-Pop-Band will mit dem neuen Werk nichts anderes erreichen als sich zu verjüngen, noch einmal neu anzufangen. Im vergangenen Jahr habe man mit „B-Sides And Rarities“ das Kreativklosett durchgespült und alte Ideen zu Bett gebracht. Jetzt geht es wieder neu los. Eingespielte Methoden wurden überdacht, Limitierungen verworfen, nicht mehr ausschließlich auf die Live-Tauglichkeit geachtet. Auf „7“ finden sich Tracks ohne Gitarre oder ohne Keyboards, Stücke, die Lage für Lage kompliziert übereinandergeschichtet worden sind, Produktionen, die niemals auf der Bühne so gespielt werden können. Es ging nur noch um die kreative Stimmung statt um die Wahl der Instrumente. Klang war alles, alles andere hatte sich unterzuordnen. Eine große Rolle spielte auch der gesellschaftliche Irrsinn, der im vergangenen Jahr durch die Vereinigten Staaten rollte. Dabei ist keineswegs nur die Präsidentschaft Trumps gemeint, sondern vor allem die Diskussionen um die Rolle der Frauen in der Gesellschaft. In der Welt herrsche Chaos genug, sagen Sängerin und Keyboarderin Victoria Legrand und Gitarrist und Keyboarder Alex Scally, darum sei „7“ ein möglichst simpler Titel einer großen neuen Platte. Wie das Ganze sich live anhören wird: lassen wir uns überraschen. Beach House arbeiten im Moment an ihrer neuen Show und kommen damit im Oktober zu uns auf Tour.

No queríamos –ni queremos– limitarnos por la extensión EDITORIAL de los artículos que les presentamos en cada una de nuestras ediciones. Como dijimos esa vez: si la historia es entretenida y tiene seis, ocho o diez páginas, la vamos a publicar en su totali- dad. Como corresponde y como creemos que se merecen los ar- tistas que entregan todo lo que tienen por el amor a lo que hacen. Creemos que sus historias, vivencias y experiencias pueden ayudar a aquellos que están en ese mismo camino, a encontrar una luz que los haga perseverar en lo que están haciendo. Al final, una buena historia siempre te dejará algo valioso. Puede que sea una enseñanza, quizás una moraleja o tal vez algo más simple: te permitirá no cometer los mismos errores que alguien ya cometió. Sabíamos que nuestros primeros tres números eran probable- mente los más importantes que tendríamos que hacer en mu- cho tiempo. Y para ser honestos, nunca imaginamos que esta tercera edición se desarrollaría de esta manera. Siempre hemos sido optimistas, pero centrados, acerca de los contenidos que queríamos presentarles y nuestra capacidad para realizarlos a pesar de las distancias que tenemos con el resto del mundo. Si nos hubieran dicho, cuando estábamos partiendo con este pro- yecto, que para nuestro tercer número íbamos a tener cuatro en- trevistas exclusivas para Sudamérica, no lo hubiéramos creído.

  • Beach House on Creating Your Own World
    July 17, 2017 - Beach House is a Baltimore-based band comprised of vocalist/keyboardist Victoria Legrand and guitarist Alex Scally. Since forming in 2004 the band have released six full-length albums. This summer the duo released the self-explanatory B-Sides and Rarities. When asked to explain the deeply intimate nature of the band’s creative process, Legrand offers the following: “It's very strange, sometimes. It feels like one mind, two bodies, four hands.” As told to T. Cole Rachel, 2352 words. Tags: Music, Focus, Inspiration, Process, Collaboration, Success. Beach House on creating your own world Your band is off the road and in-between albums. Does that mean you’re working on new music or are you taking a break? Victoria: It’s not super busy, but we’re always working on stuff. I think it’s just normal. We’re not really off right now. We’re not on vacation or anything. Something I’ve realized about us is that when we say we’re taking time off, it’s not ever as long as we think it’s going to be. Alex: There’s something about getting a little bit older where it starts to feel like once you stop, you die. Victoria: That’s what John Waters said to us. He said, “Don’t blink.” Alex: When we were younger, we would get back from tour, and be like, “That was so exhausting. I’m not going to do anything for like a month.” Now the idea of a month without doing anything is this horror of wasted time that you’ll never get back.

  • Koncertaktuelle Beach House Har Udgivet Anmelderrost Nyt Album Med Titlen "7"
    Album cover 2018-05-15 16:00 CEST Koncertaktuelle Beach House har udgivet anmelderrost nyt album med titlen "7". Oplev den populære duo live i Forum Black Box 9.10 Den 11. maj udkom Beach House alias sangerinde og keyboardspiller Victoria Legrand og guitarist Alex Scallys syvende studiealbum, som har fået den enkle titel 7. Albummet bliver fulgt op af en koncert i Forum Black Box i København 9. oktober. Det nye album indeholder numre som "Lemon Glow" (der blev udgivet på Valentines Day), "Black Car", "Drunk In LA", "Dark Spring" samt singlen "Dive". Alle numre begyndte i hjemmestudiet i Baltimore og blev færdiggjort i Carriage House i Stamford, Connecticut samt Palmetto Studio i Los Angeles og er indspillet i samarbejde med Peter Kember, kendt som kultbandet Spacemen 3's medlem Sonic Boom. Peter Kember har dog ikke produceret i traditionel forstand, men har mere arbejdet som rådgiver. Ifølge bandet selv har de denne gang – mod sædvane – i studiet ikke begrænset sig til, hvad de selv kan spille live. Duoens livetrommeslager siden 2016, James Barone, spiller med på hele albummet. Albummet får også gode anmeldelser med på vejen af den danske presse, bla. 5 stjerner fra Gaffa "Drømmepop med fremdrift", læs den her Soundvenue kvitterer ligeledes med 5 stjerner "Beach House byder på inviterende - og sexet - mareridtspop på "7"" - læs hele anmeldelsen her Politiken følger også trop med 5 hjerter og skriver: "Beach House er - også på deres syvende album - mestre i at sætte stemningen, der bevæger sig mere rytmisk, men sagligt ude af takt med resten af verden" (læs mere her) Se video på YouTube her PRESS RELEASE: Friday May 11th Beach House released their 7th studio album, the highly anticipatedand aptly titled 7.

  • Beach House Vender Tilbage Til VEGA
    2015-05-26 16:30 CEST Beach House vender tilbage til VEGA VEGA og Livenation præsenterer BEACH HOUSE VENDER TILBAGE TIL VEGA Beach House udgav deres kritikerroste selvbetitlede debutalbum i 2006, der gav bandet nogle prominente indie-fans, inklusiv Grizzly Bear, som inviterede dem med på tour. I 2008 udkom albummet Devotion, og de brød for alvor gennem indie-muren med deres spektakulære Teen Dream fra 2010. I 2012 fulgte de op med Bloom, og den 25. august kan fans så glæde sig til bandets femte fuldlængde album, der har fået titlen ”Depression Cherry”. Bandet fortæller følgende om albummet: “In general, this record shows a return to simplicity, with songs structured around a melody and a few instruments, with live drums playing a far lesser role. With the growing success of Teen Dream and Bloom, the larger stages and bigger rooms naturally drove us towards a louder, more aggressive place; a place farther from our natural tendencies. Here, we continue to let ourselves evolve while fully ignoring the commercial context in which we exist. For us, Depression Cherry is a color, a place, a feeling, an energy… that describes the place you arrive as you move through the endlessly varied trips of existence.” Et glædeligt og længe ventet genhør Baltimores Beach House er måske den mest usandsynlige indie-succeshistorie gennem de seneste år. De spiller spillet efter deres egne regler, siger nej tak til store højtprofilerede turnéer, og de spiller ofte på mindre spillesteder, som ikke matcher deres store popularitet. Se video på YouTube her Bandet, der foretrækker ikke at blive kaldt en duo, blev dannet i 2004, og består af sangerinde og keyboardspiller Victoria Legrand og multi- instrumentalist Alex Scally, og de har trommeslageren Dan Franz med, når de turnerer.
