NPR Choice page Almost every song addresses heartache in one form or another and her instincts as a singer remain unmatched. Adele is only 27 years old, still young by any sensible metric, but much of 25her third album, concerns itself Adele: 25 the passage of time: the inevitable accumulation of both years and vantages. Get up and Adele: 25 over, friend, she seems to be saying—you are a grown Adele: 25 now. He keeps his lines pointy and balanced. Lyrically, Adele leans on Adele: 25 familiar kind of outrage, reckoning with a lover who broke every promise he ever made to her. Sometimes, Adele herself is the agent of grief, like on "Hello", in which she attempts to reach an ex-lover on her flip-phone. She is arguably more desperate to reach an earlier iteration of herself, to correct something, Adele: 25 some panic. Other times she is a victim of loss. Still: the cumulative effect is sometimes as treacly as the heavily frosted sheet cake being slid onto the buffet table in the carpeted banquet hall where this song will be blasting, on a loop, for all of eternity. Even your most Adele: 25 aunt—the one who loves Adele: 25 Yankee Candle—will eventually drain her flute of sparkling wine, lean forward, and be like, Adele: 25, this shit is corny. Taken as a whole document, it is truly staggering how many of these Adele: 25 of them, as far as I can tell— address the foibles of romantic love. You dummies are the ones who want that! And perhaps these songs are trifles, foregone conclusions that, instead of facilitating or inviting a deepening, allow for just one outcome: a peaceable head-bob, a wistful smile. They are one-way, dead-end roads, emotional shortcuts to wells of loss and contrition. It does not seem unfair to ask that dynamism of her songs, too. Skip to content Search query All Results.

    What Did Danger Mouse Do? The Grey Album and Musical Composition in Configurable Culture This article uses The Grey Album, Danger Mouse’s 2004 mashup of Jay-Z’s Black Album with the Beatles’“White Album,” to explore the ontological status of mashups, with a focus on determining what sort of creative work a mashup is. After situating the album in relation to other types of musical borrowing, I provide brief analyses of three of its tracks and build upon recent research in configurable-music practices to argue that the album is best conceptualized as a type of musical performance.

  • Biography Mark Ronson Is an Internationally Renowned DJ and Five-Time-Grammy-Award-Winning and Golden Globe-Winning Artist and P
    Biography Mark Ronson is an internationally renowned DJ and five-time-Grammy-Award-winning and Golden Globe-winning artist and producer. Ronson spent the first eight years of his life growing up in London, England. Having played guitar and drums from an early age, it wasn't until moving to New York City following his parents’ divorce, that he discovered DJ culture. At age 16, and already a fan of artists like A Tribe Called Quest, Run DMC and the Beastie Boys, Ronson began listening to mixtapes released by various hip hop DJs. Inspired, Ronson confiscated his step-father's vinyl collection and tried his hand at mixing. It was the first step in a career highlighted by work on a multi Grammy-winning album by Amy Winehouse, as well as his own Grammy-winning, global smash hit with Bruno Mars, "Uptown Funk." In the late 1990s into the early 2000s, the New York club scene was percolating with booming hip-hop and glitzy R&B. Ronson quickly earned himself a reputation through stints on the decks in downtown clubs before becoming the DJ of choice for many noteworthy parties. Hip-hop mogul Sean "P. Diddy" Combs hired Ronson to DJ his fabled 29th birthday bash. These and other high-profile gigs boosted Ronson's profile and connected him with other artists, many of whom were interested in collaborating. His first production gig came from British soul singer Nikka Costa and he found that his experience of working a club crowd informed his production skills. Fusing his eclectic turntable skills with his knowledge of musical instruments and songwriting, Ronson soon embarked on his first solo record.
