    5 weaPons of mass seduction Performing Pop Masculinity To all intents and purposes Harry Styles, unofficial frontman of internationally renowned boy band One Direction, could easily be mistaken for a young Mick Jagger (see Figure 5.1). The men’s good looks, broad smiles, matching windswept hair styles and shared fashion sensibilities bridge a 51-year age gap. Both are singers who have enjoyed the adoration of a passionate fan following, yet in terms of the version of masculinity each represents, the two could not be more different. While Jagger is openly admired by both sexes, few men admit to being fans of Harry Styles whose following is commonly depicted as restricted to teen and pre-teen females. Unlike the older man, Styles radiates a wholesome, good humoured exuberance, appears to genuinely like female company and is never happier than when exalting the women in his life. He also differs from the Rolling Stones leader in showing a marked preference for older female partners, whereas Jagger figure 5.1 Harry Styles. 84 Weapons of Mass Seduction is always seen in the company of much younger women.1 Jagger’s androgy- nous charm is tinged with danger and more than a hint of misogyny: he has a reputation for treating his partners callously, and from the outset, chauvinism themes of mistrust permeated the Rolling Stones’ songbook.2 The younger singer is also androgynous but his failure to comply with core characteristics of normative masculinity underscores much of the antipathy directed towards by critics, highlighting deeply entrenched prejudice against those who fail to comply with accepted expressions of gender.

  • Brian Harvey and His Troll Team, Just a Quick Reminder – WE ARE at WAR, Whether You Realise It Or Not; We Are Fighting for Our FREEDOM
    Before I start to stick the boot into Brian Harvey and his troll team, just a quick reminder – WE ARE AT WAR, whether you realise it or not; we are fighting for our FREEDOM. The war we are in is a Truth war. The men in power, who operate behind a spider’s web of inter-connected secret societies [freemasonry – which consists of various fraternal organisations – being the world’s most well-known secret society, and the one which directly affects us all] are doing anything and everything to stop the public knowing the truth. They are achieving this via their extremely sophisticated world-wide network of gatekeepers, also known as enemy agents. These gatekeepers consist of ALL mainstream media reporters and a frightening number of shills, trolls, fake victims and fake ‘armchair-detectives’ who dominate the so-called alternative media; and they are all controlled by men who occupy high levels within these secret fraternal organisations. For ease of reference I call them masonic. [A better description of them is the masonic mafia.] The job of the gatekeeper is to keep you in a state of confusion, to put you off seeking the truth and thus keep you under control, and thus enslaved. They achieve this through sophisticated deception. Enemy agents are paid to put out lies, lies by omission of truth, disinformation, misinformation, half- truths, spun-truths, and fake stories. These bastards are working for the evil men in power, being paid and protected by them to ultimately take away our free speech on the internet and completely enslave us.

  • Model of Creativity in Commercial Pop Music at P&E Studios in the 1990S
    Paul Thompson & Phil Harding: A ‘Service’ Model of Creativity in Commercial Pop Music at P&E Studios in the 1990s Proceedings of the 12th Art of Record Production Conference Mono: Stereo: Multi Thompson, P. & Harding, P. (2019). A ‘Service’ Model of Creativity in Commer- cial Pop Music at P&E Studios in the 1990s. In J.-O. Gullö (Ed.), Proceedings of the 12th Art of Record Production Conference Mono: Stereo: Multi (pp. 287- 302). Stockholm: Royal College of Music (KMH) & Art of Record Production. Paul Thompson & Phil Harding: A ‘Service’ Model of Creativity in Commercial Pop Music at P&E Studios in the 1990s Abstract Producers in pop and dance music genres have a significantly different role to music producers in other music genres such as rock (Frith in Frith & Zagor- ski-Thomas: 2012). A prominent difference is that pop music producers are often part of a production team that involves direct collaboration and partici- pation with songwriters, programmers, musicians, artists, record company A&R executives and managers. Pop music songwriting and production teams are therefore more frequently part of a larger creative collective (Hennion: 1990) in creating a musical product. This historical study introduces the rec- ord producer as ‘team leader’ and the creative production workflow at P&E Music Studios located within the Strongroom Studio complex in London dur- ing the 1990s. It investigates the ways in which the production team worked within the creative system of pop-music making and presents the pop music ‘Service Model’, which illustrates the various stages of the commercial pop songwriting and production process at P&E during the 1990s.

Phone: 01865 372255 NEWNEWSS STEVENTON EVENTS LIMITED, the company behind Truck Festival, has gone into liquidation. Festival organisers Robin and Joe Bennett (pictured) had revealed a shortfall in the event’s finances days after this year’s Truck, at the end of July. On the 11th August Robin issued a statement confirming the worst: “Insufficient final ticket sales and revenues over the weekend have combined to force this outcome in what is a very difficult festival market. We would like to apologise to all those affected, including those who have not received their fees. On a personal note, we are devastated after such a well-received event, which was a success on many levels.” The sad news comes after Truck had enjoyed a complete redesign of its site, an expansion in capacity, and a move up to a three day event. How the news affects the Truck organisation’s other events, including WOOD Festival and Truck America is uncertain but it looks like it will spell the end to one of the Oxfordshire music scene’s best loved institutions, one that started out as a party for Robin’s birthday in 1998 and helped pioneer a whole new movement of small-scale local festivals, hailed as the Godfather of small festivals in The Guardian last year.
