  • 12.15.2020 – Taylor Swift, Reinvented Once Again
    :: View email as a web page :: So much of our Covid-related discourse in 2020 centered on what was lost. But a precious few of us seized upon this very strange and sequestered year as an opportunity for acquiring some new part of ourselves. Was it a surprise that Taylor Swift was one of those people? Her summer release Folklore was instantly contextualized as a quarantine project. Swift’s second album of 2020, Evermore, was similarly presented by the singer-songwriter herself as extra run-o! from an especially fruitful songwriting period. But anyone taking a wider view of her career could see albums like Folklore and Evermore on Swift’s musical horizon, even before Covid. During the press cycle for her 2019 e!ort Lover, Swift was already expressing disdain for the pop machine, likening it to The Hunger Games. That strain was also apparent on the album, in which some very good “small” Taylor Swift songs were larded with some very bad “big” would-be hits like “Me” and “I Forgot You Existed.” More than ever, the gap between the songs in which Swift’s heart seemed to be truly invested and the songs required for radio exposure and meme-friendly virality was incredibly stark. As our current reigning stadium rocker, Swift had made Born In The U.S.A.-style mega-smashes time and again. Now, it seemed, she yearned to make her Nebraska . But would pop’s chronic overachiever ever allow herself to make an album of strictly “small” and intimate songs? When the world shut down in 2020, the obligation to fill our stadiums and arenas with world- conquering jams suddenly became moot.

  • ARSC Journal, Vol
    WILLIE ROBYN: A RECORDING ARTIST IN THE 19205 (PART 2) By Tim Brooks Victor to Cameo The early 1920s must have been a heady time for young Robyn, with an exclusive Victor contract, a burgeoning stage and radio career, excellent reviews for his concert work, and talk of the Met. But by 1923 he had hit a plateau. The first setback was the loss ofhis agent, the enthusiastic Hugo Boucek. Boucek had run up large bills publicizing his artists. The economic depression of 1921-22 cut into concert revenues, and many concerts were canceled outright. Deeply in debt, Boucek skipped town, never to be heard from again. Left in the lurch, Robyn did not secure another agent, a move he later felt was a mistake. "I was the most mismanaged person that ever lived," he ruefully explained. The first matter he had to deal with was the expiration of his three-year Victor contract, in mid-1923. Victor was happy to renew, but for the same $7,000 per year as the previous term, and with Robyn still pretty much limited to the foreign series. Robyn insisted on more money, and another chance at popular recording. He made a new popular trial, "Dearest," on April 11th with Nat Shilkret accompanying on piano. Robyn scouted around for other options, and even made a test for Edison on May 24th. The test was reviewed by Thomas Edison himself, who noted of Robyn, 1 Has loud tremolo. Sings too loud. Ifsang less loud he would be much better and have less tremolo. He might do with proper songs.

  • Calum Scott Decided to Start Writing His Own Material
    ABOUT In autumn 2015, after drawing raves for his breakthrough cover of Robyn’s “Dancing On My Own,” Calum Scott decided to start writing his own material. With his first attempts including a deeply personal track about coming out to his father, the British vocalist soon discovered the cathartic power of songwriting. With his stripped-down and sweetly devastating rendition of “Dancing On My Own” gaining more than 550 million streams worldwide—as well as earning a Brit Award nomination for Best Single—Scott is now ready to deliver his full-length debut. Made with producers like Fraser T Smith (Adele, Ellie Goulding), Jayson DeZuzio (Skylar Grey, Imagine Dragons), and Oscar Görres (Taylor Swift, Britney Spears), Only Human showcases the tender yet commanding vocal work he’s recently displayed in touring with artists like Emeli Sandé. In releasing his original material for the first time, Scott reveals the rare gift of his songwriting: an intense vulnerability that somehow leaves the listener more hopeful and assured. Growing up in the Northern England city of Kingston upon Hull, Scott’s singing experience mainly involved belting along to the Shirley Bassey and Queen songs his mom often played in the car. Although he took up drumming as a kid—and admired his sister Jade for her dedication to singing and dance—Scott entered the workforce right after high school with no intention of venturing into music. “Then about four years into my job, I’d gotten incredibly sick of making photocopies and cups of tea,” he recalls. “I just knew it wasn’t what I was meant to do with my life.” In 2015, Scott performed his poignant version of Robyn’s 2010 electro-pop classic, “Dancing On My Own” on Britain’s Got Talent, then emerged as a semi- finalist.
