Complete Recordings, Starless, Road to Red, on [And Off) the Road and Thrak Box: Live and Studio Recordings 1994–1997
The making of virtual space in the King Crimson Box sets Larks tongues in as- pic: Complete recordings, Starless, Road to Red, On [and off) the Road and Thrak Box: Live and Studio Recordings 1994–1997 Toivo Burlin, Stockholm University When the founding fathers of progressive rock, British (-American) group King Crimson, pro- duced their groundbreaking LP In the Court of the Crimson king in 1969, they established an ec- lectic yet recognizable style, with a strong musical and production virtuosity. Continuing for four decades, they became the only band of its generation to continually developing and ex- panding it’s style and techniques. Their music is not easily categorized: from the advanced rock music inspired by modern jazz and art music on the first four LP albums – and a lot of changes in the band personnel and set up of instruments – the music developed in the mid 1970’s to a dynamic, experimental hard rock with an art music attitude, containing sound worlds of percussion, violins and softer melodic elements blended with heavy, rhythmically complex, asymmetrical guitar riffs: The albums Larks tongues in aspic (1973), Starless and bible black (1974) and Red (1974) was highly influential. When the band was reformed with partly new musicians in 1981, they arrived with a different, of New wave and minimalism, influenced style. In a short span of three years, 1981–1984, they released albums Discipline, Beat and Three of a perfect pair, and reformed once more in 1994 to release the CD Thrak. Importantly, in the same period they managed to take total creative and commercial control of all their recorded output, and it put them in a uniquely strong independent artistic position, connected to their loyal followers.

Nin Ghosts I Remixed
The story of... ‘‘ What a beautiful day ! ’’ NiN Ghosts I remixed In cauda venenum by-nc-sa/3.0/us/ What a beautiful day ! - NiN Ghosts I remixed Sunday, March 2, Year two thousand and eight : What a beautiful day ! Trent Reznor, the demiurge behind Nine Inch Nails has just boldly freed himself from traditional restraints to free dissemination. Ghosts I-IV, last NIN album to date, has been released without the help of any record company and the first 9 tracks are available in free download on the band's website. NIN releases the whole album and its graphics and covers under a Creative Commons by-nc-sa licence. This means any person who adquired the album, either by purchasing or downloading is by now free to share it, sample or remix it, under the following conditions : attribute the work in the manner specified by the author, and not use it for commercial purpose. This initiative obviously runs counter to digital locking systems set up by the recording industry, and counter to its hollow fight against "piracy". By choosing the free licences, Reznor prooves that the music may be shared freely, and that "free" music is not necessarily "cheap" music, which would be of lesser quality than "commercial" music. Doing this, Reznor prooves also that free dissemination is by no way uncompatible with some kind of trade, as the Ghosts I-IV album was actually sold, in lossless digital format as well as in limited edition cds. Nine Inch Nails affords the luxury to conciliate profitability and sharing. Let's hope the idea makes many followers.

Tesi Del Dott. Jacopo Conti: Minimalismo ... -.:: Franco Fabbri
UNIVERSITÀ DEGLI STUDI DI TORINO FACOLTÀ DI SCIENZE DELLA FORMAZIONE CORSO DI STUDIO TRIENNALE IN D.A.M.S. DISSERTAZIONE FINALE Minimalismo, modalità e improvvisazione nella musica dei nuovi King Crimson Relatore: Candidato: Ernesto Napolitano Jacopo Conti matr. n° 259083 Anno accademico 2006 - 2007 A mia zia, che credeva in me e mi ha sempre sostenuto. 1 PREMESSA “King Crimson was more a revolving door than a band. ” - Robert Palmer La cronologia dei King Crimson (KC) dal 1969 al 2003 è assai articolata, e include vari stili e molti musicisti con una sola presenza fissa, quella di Robert Fripp (1946), chitarrista e compositore inglese fondatore del gruppo. Considerati tra i fondatori del progressive rock, pubblicano l’album In The Court Of The Crimson King 1 nel 1969 con Fripp alla chitarra, Ian McDonald (1946) al sax e al mellotron, Michael Giles (1942) alla batteria, Greg Lake (1948) al basso e alla voce e Peter Sinfield (1943) nel ruolo di paroliere. I lunghi brani strutturati, gli elaborati riff suonati all’unisono e i testi di ispirazione fantastica e fiabesca non solo diventano la caratteristica principale del gruppo, ma anche gli elementi fondanti del nuovo genere. Già con il secondo lp, In The Wake Of Poseidon (1970), la formazione viene rimodellata: Mel Collins (1947) prende il posto di McDonald al sax, Gordon Haskell canta in alcuni brani (durante la lavorazione del disco Greg Lake abbandona il gruppo per andare a costituire il trio Emerson, Lake & Palmer), si aggiunge al pianoforte Keith Tippett (1947). Il gruppo si scioglie per qualche mese dopo l’incisione del disco per poi tornare, con un’altra formazione, alla fine del 1970.

Toivo Burlin: The creation (and re-creation) of virtual spatiality: Surround sound mixing in King Crimson’s back catalog box sets Abstract: The article analyzes surround mixing of King Crimson’s analog recordings. “Lizard,” “Larks’ Tongues in Aspic (Part 1),” “The Night Watch,” “Trio,” and “One Time” are analyzed using the theoretical perspec- tives of the music recording as representation and spatial design. There is a difference between live and studio recordings in surround: live recordings tend to be mixed according to the direct/ambient principle, while studio re- cordings are mixed according to the principle of direct-sound all around. Live recordings in surround can also often be understood as examples of documentarism, and studio recordings as examples of hyper realism. The spatial design of the surround mix tends to emphasize aspects of spatiality in the broad sense: where the recording can, for example, be interpreted as a landscape in sound. Introduction This essay discusses some tendencies in the emerging conventions in con- temporary surround mixing of popular music.

The John Wetton Interview: October 2013 - on Tour with District 97
Carla’s Corner: Carla Huntington for NewEARS The John Wetton Interview: October 2013 - On Tour With District 97 John Wetton: Definition- Versatality: ver·sa·til·i·ty 1. Capable of doing many things competently. 2. Having varied uses or serving many functions. 3. The state of being cognitively skillful. 4. The quality or state of being versatile. <a musician of great versatility> 5. John Wetton There really isn't really one word to accurately describe John Wetton. Front man and singer for super-groups such as ASIA, UK, King Crimson and countless guest appearances with many more. Guitarist, lyricist and writer, John has been a cornerstone in the progressive rock music industry for many years. John's smooth vocals have been in big demand by a number of bands including recent appearances with Steve Hackett, Eddie Jobson, and District 97. John's musical strength comes from a strong focus and a will to enjoy life as it comes. From successfully battling an alcohol addiction to dealing with some major health issues, John Wetton has been refined like metal in the fire and come out as pure gold. In a time when most people are viewing their second half of life as a chance to slow down, John is holding strong to a schedule that most of his younger counterparts wouldn't remotely have the energy for. Charity work, guest musician and singer, more new albums in the making, more touring, a successful solo career, and proud father, John is currently touring with the band District 97, enlightening young and old fans alike to the music of King Crimson.
