INTO the BLOODSTREAM New Album and Concerts !"#$%&'"(!#$' INTO THE BLOODSTREAM New album and concerts Archie Roach, Australia’s beloved Aboriginal singer and songwriter – the voice of his people and the voice of many other people too – has a new lease of life. Literally. And it has manifested in his new songs, this wondrous new album and the accompanying live show. In 2010 Archie suffered immeasurably. Most will know by now that the venerable and dignified performer, who captured the hearts and minds of a nation in 1990 with Charcoal Lane and the landmark song Took The Children Away, lost his partner and soul mate Ruby Hunter. It was February 2010; she was only 54. Archie’s grief was immense. Later that year found himself up in the Kimberley, at a place called Turkey Creek, 800 km or so east of Broome in amongst the Bungle Bungles when he himself suffered a stroke. He was taken by Flying Doctor to Broome then Perth and went into heavy rehabilitation, which left parts of his body, including one of his hands, inert. In mid 2011 Archie was diagnosed with the early stages of lung cancer. He got half a lung removed and again went into heavy rehabilitation. It could be said that through his long and distinguished career Archie has sung of suffering, pain and injustice in a manner more effective than most. But that’s not what has happened in the aftermath of his horrible year in 2010. Instead he has turned to joy and hope and the idea of lifting himself and others up through song. As his body recovers so too does his mind. The brand new album Into The Bloodstream – and the life affirming live shows of the same name –is about, he says “finding strength” and then expressing it. “Overcoming difficulties,” he says, “and singing more uplifting songs that are not so much about suffering and pain but rising above that. Going through what I have has made me realise that a big part of people getting sick has to do with holding onto pain and not letting it go. That was the inspiration behind it all. Letting go of the pain and the bad stuff and holding onto something good and strong.” The live shows – infused with good doses of uplifting gospel and soul stirrings – are also in many ways the story of Roach’s life, spanning his childhood, his stolen years and his long love for Ruby. There will be a star-studded thirteen-piece musical ensemble under the direction of Craig Pilkington (Audrey Studios), who has produced and arranged the album, plus a ten-voice gospel choir headed by Lou Bennett from Tiddas and the Black Arm Band. Lighting and visuals will be curated by the accomplished Tim Cole. Liberation Music’s Managing Director Warren Costello says: “We set out to help Archie create a landmark album in what has already been an amazing career. Michael Gudinski and I have drawn incredible strength and inspiration from Archie Roach and from Ruby Hunter over many, many years. It is once again our pleasure and privilege to be standing shoulder to shoulder with Archie to launch this new album which we truly believe is amongst his best work.” Archie says the album – and these majestic shows – are his good medicine. Straight Into The Bloodstream. Into The Bloodstream will be released through Liberation Music on Friday October 19th, 2012. !"#$%&'"(!#$''''''%)*('*$&'+,((-.*"&!/''''''#()#&"*.#()#&"*.

  • Media Kit Emma Donovan & the Putbacks
    MEDIA KIT EMMA DONOVAN & THE PUTBACKS CHEVRON LIGHTHOUSE SUN 9 FEB TICKETS: $39 Click here for images EMMA DONOVAN AND THE PUTBACKS Acclaimed Indigenous vocalist Emma Donovan and Melbourne rhythm combo The Putbacks burst on to the Australian scene with their album Dawn in 2015, announcing a new voice in Australian soul music. Emma’s songwriting is optimistic, impassioned, and bruisingly honest, The Putbacks’ music is fluid, live and raw, and the collaboration has won friends and admirers all over the world. The project was born of Emma and the band’s shared love for classic US soul and the protest music of Indigenous Australia. Shades of every soul record you ever liked sneak through: Al Green’s Hi Recordsera? Check. Aretha’s Classic Atlantic recordings? Check. Stacks of Stax? Check. It’s all there, but there’s also a whole lot of Coloured Stone and Warumpi Band influences giving this project a uniquely Australian slant. Emma grew up singing church songs with her grandparents on the North coast of New South Wales and her first secular gigs were singing in the family band, The Donovans, with her mother and five uncles. Throughout her career, she has toured and recorded with many of the mainstays of Indigenous music from Archie Roach to Dan Sultan and was a leader of the Black Arm Band project. It was in The Black Arm Band that Emma met members of The Putbacks and their journey together began. The Putbacks are stone cold pros, grizzled veterans of all the tours and all the studios. As individuals, they’re the players behind so many bands it’s difficult to list, but let’s start with Hiatus Kaiyote, The Bombay Royale, D.D Dumbo, Swooping Duck and The Meltdown.

  • Songs in the Key of Melbourne; Melbourne in the Key of Song
    Songs in the key of Melbourne; Melbourne In the Key of Song. Research assignment SRA744 - Urban Patterns and Precedents Matt Novacevski, 2013 “Representations of a city and its life in the arts can be narrative ‘portraits’, local or ‘synoptic’ descriptions, ac- cording to Shapiro. Choosing a particular city—[...your A1 city ?...]— as the object of such representation, examine and discuss what can be learned about the nature of that city from any of those descriptions. Use specific examples for you inferences to give them credibility.” It has been claimed that Melbourne is the subject of popular song more than any Australian city (1). Since the 1970s, the city has been an incubator for the Australian music scene, growing some of Australia’s biggest artists and music industry players (2). In this context, it is natural that this music would that tell us much about the nature of Melbourne. Melbourne has been a muse to musicians and songwriters, which have in turn left to the city a series of cultural portraits in their songs that have not only described Melbourne; they have shaped its reality. Melbourne and its songwriters can be seen to have developed a symbiotic relationship where songwriters are inspired by the many faces of the city, while their songs are cultural documents that influence the way people view and interact with the city. As Keeling says, music acts “as a mirror to and for society, and it plays a very important role in shaping both our social identity and the identity of places” (3). While this project demonstrates the importance of popular music in reflecting and shaping the Melbourne’s sense of place, it does not seek to provide a comprehensive account of all this material - partly because songwriting focused on and inspired by Melbourne has been so prolific.

  • Raw Thought: the Weblog of Aaron Swartz Aaronsw.Com/Weblog
    Raw Thought: The Weblog of Aaron Swartz aaronsw.com/weblog 1 What’s Going On Here? May 15, 2005 Original link I’m adding this post not through blogging software, like I normally do, but by hand, right into the webpage. It feels odd. I’m doing this because a week or so ago my web server started making funny error messages and not working so well. The web server is in Chicago and I am in California so it took a day or two to get someone to check on it. The conclusion was the hard drive had been fried. When the weekend ended, we sent the disk to a disk repair place. They took a look at it and a couple days later said that they couldn’t do anything. The heads that normally read and write data on a hard drive by floating over the magnetized platter had crashed right into it. While the computer was giving us error messages it was also scratching away a hole in the platter. It got so thin that you could see through it. This was just in one spot on the disk, though, so we tried calling the famed Drive Savers to see if they could recover the rest. They seemed to think they wouldn’t have any better luck. (Please, plase, please, tell me if you know someplace to try.) I hadn’t backed the disk up for at least a year (in fairness, I was literally going to back it up when I found it giving off error messages) and the thought of the loss of all that data was crushing.
