Cumulative Form in Pop-Rock Music
twentieth-century music 1/1, 29–64 © 2004 Cambridge University Press DOI: 10.1017/S1478572204000052 Printed in the United Kingdom (Ac)cumulative Form in Pop-Rock Music MARK SPICER Abstract This article examines a variety of compositional procedures that give rise to what the author defines as ‘accumulative’ and ‘cumulative’ forms in pop-rock music, formal processes which are directly linked to the rapid advances in recording technology that occurred mainly from the late 1960s to the 1980s. The article includes detailed transcriptions and analyses of pop-rock music across a wide range of styles and genres, from progressive rock to post-punk to techno. J. Peter Burkholder has coined the term ‘cumulative form’ to describe an unusual com- positional strategy in selected late nineteenth-century works, particularly in the music of Charles Ives.1 In typical large-scale eighteenth- and nineteenth-century tonal pieces (those in sonata form, for example), we expect the main theme to be stated intact at the outset – most often in the tonic key – and then subjected to various processes of fragmentation and development as the piece unfolds. In a cumulative form this typical order is reversed: thematic fragments are gradually introduced and developed, only to crystallize into a full-fledged presentation of the main theme in a climactic pay-off at the end of the piece. As Burkholder shows, prototypes of cumulative form can be found in symphonic works from early in the nineteenth century. Probably the most famous example is the finale of Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony (1823), where fragments of the ‘Ode to Joy’ are introduced long before the theme makes its first complete appearance. -

Chumbawamba E O Caso Tubthumper – O Mainstream Como Estratégia
Chumbawamba e o caso Tubthumper – O mainstream como estratégia Guy Amado – Novembro de 2005 "It is to be strongly established that the myth is a communication system, is message. […] The myth can always, in the end, signify the resistance made to it." Roland Barthes "It's time to create the pop stars of activism, the idoru of communication guerrilla, it's time to threaten and charm the masses, to play the myth against the myth, to be more nihilist than infoteinment !" Etoy "Knock hard, life is deaf." Mimi Parent A reboque da insuficiência e do relativismo que caracterizam a circulação do termo cultura tal como se efetiva nestes tempos "pós-tudo", chama a atenção o nicho de estudos e estratégias de mobilização que circulam sob a denominação genérica de resistência cultural . Na medida em que a própria noção-base de cultura se apresenta de maneira cada vez mais vaga e diluída, sendo referida de maneira rasa e instrumentalizada e cooptada de modo oportunista na legitimação de ideologias e programas universalistas, a idéia de "resistir" apresentaria-se igualmente relativizada. É possível, contudo, divisar o que poderia ser descrito como um espectro heterogêneo de correntes do pensamento contemporâneo e mesmo de ações práticas que se contrapõem ou se interessam em analisar o cenário e adotar um posicionamento crítico frente a esse estado das coisas. De Noam Chomsky a Hakim Bey, passando por releituras de, entre tantos outros, Guy Debord e Nietzsche, toda uma gama de pensadores têm influenciado os que vêem na tecnologia e na internet – esta, -

4.5 DANCES with AGITATORS What Is ‘Anarchist Music’?
4.5 DANCES WITH AGITATORS What Is ‘Anarchist Music’? Jim Donaghey Introduction Robin Ballinger argues that ‘[m]usic is neither transcendental nor trivial, but inhibits a site where hegemonic processes are contested’ (in Sakolsky and Ho (eds.), 1995: 14) – in other words, music matters. However, music (and culture more widely) is often viewed as being of minor importance within social movements, as something coincidental rather than fun- damental. Consideration of anarchism and music contributes to an understanding of the complex relationships between culture and radical politics more widely, while challenging those narrow conceptions of radicalism that fail to take cultural aspects into account. This chapter points to the core role of culture (and music) in social movements, and the rec- ognition of this importance across a wide spectrum of anarchist perspectives. The chapter then considers evaluations of ‘anarchist music’, identifying the aspects which are too easily recuperated by the State and capital (such as aesthetics and lyrics), and highlighting those aspects which contain radical transformative potential (such as Do-It-Yourself or DIY produc- tion processes – though this is necessarily marginal in character and scope). A transforma- tion is not a fixed entity; it only operates in relation to an a priori situation. Evaluation of ‘anarchist music’ in terms of transformation is therefore alive to shifting contexts, and does not impose a particular set of criteria – yet, it still usefully problematises any claim of a particular music as being ‘anarchist’. However, no form of music (in terms of its aesthetic or production process) is entirely immune to co-optation, and it is argued here that music’s radical transformative potential is most fully realised, and most resilient, when engaged within a culture of resistance.
