6.) Bille Holiday - Ain’t Nobody’s Business If I Do
(God Bless the Child/1994)

It’s the holidays and what better homage to the season than to regale in the classic melodies of the greatest Holiday in music? Misery loves company as is exemplified above. For every Billie classic, there is someone who covered it in their own way; and so, for each solitary tune there is a partner. Bessie Smith originated “Ain’t Nobody …” but I wanted to leave that song to Lady Day alone; for all of the company around her, none could compare to the partner for which she longed and loved the most: opium, heroin. It was that addiction to which her version of the song referred; it is that self-inflicted solitude which resonates strongest through her tracks and is at the base of her emptiness. So a little Holiday cheer — or just Holiday — to bring in the season. Enjoi.

Note: The series with no theme. I think this is gong to be a long weekend project. Wander around the net finding new songs and fact plus irrelevant stylish black and white pix. So here is a question: what sort of cover song you like? what makes a cover song work? I rarely know or pay attention if a song being covered. except maybe few well known cover song. I always thought songs are free to be played by anybody and that good song is just like any classic piece, everybody should play it. I guess royalty fee kills.

On the list: a super rare track from Smog 7″, engineered by Jim O’Rourke. If you can get it, it’s a lovely 7″. The rest of the list are about 2 songs: ‘Satellite of Love’ by Lou Reed and ‘We Have All The Time In The World’ by Louis Armstrong. This list I guess is a mellow bedroom/dream-pop type of deal. I am not sure you can go boinking each other with it as I originally thought. It’s too melodical. Anyway, cuddle music then. enjoy.

My lover complains telling there’s is way too much depressing & ambient music on this site, and although I beg to differ, I’ve arranged this playlist comprised of just really seedy and sleazy music, see if I get it right this time. So little music is seedy and dirty, so little good music is really.
The post title comes from Tim Walker’s photograph, he’s one of my favorite photographers (fashion-wise) and I like to think this playlist echoes, on a certain level, the playful imagery of the scene. Take a full-screen look at the picture, good use of color and unique set design.

The great object of life is Sensation—to feel that we exist—even though in pain—it is this “craving void” which drives us to Gaming—to Battle—to Travel—to intemperate but keenly felt pursuits of every description whose principal attraction is the agitation inseparable from their accomplishment.

Few Postrock Albums and Such (pt.1)

Are you basically a jazz band? No, I mean we don’t really look at it like that. It’s more feeling with sounds, playing with sounds. We love jazz music and all of us have a background that involves jazz. We just take normal sounds and freak them out. - Tortoise Interview [1]

.

Various postrock albums list. I start with canonical albums first.

notes: Experimental music is any music that challenges the commonly accepted notions of what music is. There is an overlap with avant-garde music. John Cage was a pioneer in experimental music and defined and gave credibility to the form. As with other edge forms that push the limits of a particular form of expression, there is little agreement as to the boundaries of experimental music, even amongst its practitioners. On the one hand, some experimental music is an extension of traditional music, adding unconventional instruments, modifications to instruments, noises, and other novelties to orchestral compositions. At the other extreme, there are performances that most listeners would not characterize as music at all.

The term post-rock was coined by Simon Reynolds in issue 123 of The Wire (May 1994) to describe a sort of music “using rock instrumentation for non-rock purposes, using guitars as facilitators of timbres and textures rather than riffs and powerchords.”

Originally used to describe the music of such bands as Stereolab, Disco Inferno, Seefeel, Bark Psychosis and Pram, it spread out to be frequently used for all sorts of jazz- and Krautrock-influenced, instrumental, electronica-added music made after 1994. Bands from the early 1990s such as Slint, or earlier, such as Talk Talk were influential on this genre. As with many musical genres, the term is arguably inadequate: it is used for the music of Tortoise as well as that of Mogwai, two bands who have very little in common besides the fact that their music is largely instrumental. [from progarchive]

.

Talk Talk - Ascension Day
Laughing Stock (Umgd, 1991)
Although not considered post-rock, jazz/krautrock groups in the early nineties is the progenitor of post-rock sound, originator of many post-rock project in term of structure and texture. Talk Talk maybe one of the more representative. The postrock sound and feel are scattered all over their work. Another favorite example is ‘Future Days‘, an album by Can.

Slint - Washer
Spiderland (Touch & Go Records, 1991)
Probably the most influential postrock album, credited for introducing the form, earning Steve Albini’s rave. “Spiderland is a majestic album, sublime and strange, made more brilliant by its simplicity and quiet grace. Songs evolve and expand from simple statements that are inverted and truncated in a manner that seems spontaneous, but is so pricise and emphatic that it must be intuitive or orchestrated or both.” [2] [wiki]

Labradford - G
Mi Media Naranja (Kranky, 1997)
Is this the minimalist sound that Brian Eno is chasing? Hard to tell, this band from Richmond release several albums in the late 90’s in almost pure texture. An ambitious project for an era filled with hardrock/grunge scene. The significance of this band probably is as a raw material for Matmos, that visionary electro avant-garde duo. [more at brainwashed]

Tortoise - TNT
TNT (Thrill Jockey, 1998)
The album that probably most recognized as postrock sound. With background structure of minimalist avant-garde and jazz, Tortoise created scattered rock riff on top of big guitar texture with complex drum on the background. It is neither jazz, nor prog-rock. Too loud for experimental electro ambient and doesn’t have popular hook for radio. The use of computer is certainly consider sacrilege by many rock purist. And yet this album is the official ambient soundtrack for rock nerd of the world. [more at wiki]

Godspeed You! Black Emperor - The Dead Flag Blues
f#a# (infinity symbol) (Kranky, 1998)
This band spans the entire golden age of postrock sound. Started in 1994 and announcing indefinite hiatus in 2003, Montreal’s Goodpseed is famous for ambitiously large sound. For eg. their two discs “Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas To Heaven” album are filled with viola, violin, and of course “words” the one that makes them different. They were detained in Oklahoma after a gas station attendant suspect them as radicals. There is a sign of time for you. [wiki]

Explosions In the Sky - Yasmin the Light
Those Who Tell the Truth Shall Die, Those Who Tell the Truth Shall Live Forever (Temporary Residence, 2001)
The Goodspeed Texas counterpart. This album was release in September 2001. Cinematic, clean, punctuated with large wave of electric storm, it is a requiem for postrock hope. That there is larger experiment in sound which can enlighten. It is a morality play in 6 minutes rock piece. Explosion in the sky probably has the most public friendly sound between the cannonical list due to their strick bass, guitar, drum sound. [wiki]

The Mercury Program - Egypt
Data Learn Language (Tiger Style, 2002)
A highly underrated group from Gainesville Florida with unusual instrument: xylophone. I like their balance composition, a cross road between various styles punctuated by a reminder that their work is rock. This track probably sums up my idea of what elegant music is about. Undefined, minimalist, well executed, texture and balance. [wiki]

note: Here is something. Now that Radiohead is going indie and plenty of ink has been spilled about that decission [1]. I am more compelled to listen to their album. Plus I might has some idea what Moka is talking about. First: My persistence impression about Radiohead’s album is that it simply doesn’t draw me.. I don’t know why. I certainly like several folk singers with less voice range, simple rhythm, middle of nowhere post-rock or cheesy electronica. This morning I find out why Radiohead albums doesn’t give me that warm fuzzy feeling. All of their songs are largely built around Thom Yorke singing, without variation or changing lead. Despite multitude of styles, Radiohead is really a standard rock band with wide ornaments, the core doesn’t change from one album to next. That’s my first take. Second: Radiohead fan forums seems to have more diverse taste of music than other group or bands, which I think is rare. Big credit to Radiohead. hmmm…

It was the strangled cold of November, even the stars were strapped in the sky and that moon too bright forking through the bars to stick me with a singing in the head.

note: A night list. I don’t have too many tango tracks, but Piazolla’s ‘Milonga Del Angel‘ from Tango: Zero Hour is easily my one of my favorite song of all time. It captures what night is about. Moody and temperamental yet defined precisely. Tango song flows elegantly in strict dance tempo, thick with chords, wailing bandoneon swirling here and there full of tension and release. Sentimental longing. The list above is a light mix of electronica, traditional and a Gidon Kremer piece. It’s nothing mind blowing, but hopefully works for night listening. have fun.

While My Guitar Violently Bleeds pt.1: Electric

Official band photo Suishou No Fune

Sir Richard Bishop not only delivered one of this year’s greatest albums, but also without doubt the best album title. As a title While My Guitar Violently Bleeds is profoundly ambiguous in a sense that it does not merely refer to a full-blown, aggressive guitar bashing sound, but all the more – and definitely so in Sir Richard Bishop’s case – to a profound passion that pores from every note played in an almost spiritual way. The title alone is good enough to dedicate two mixes to it, the second of which will actually feature music from Sir Richard Bishop and likeminded acoustic guitar gods. This first mix however explores its mirror image and will focus solely on the electric guitar.

Les Rallizes Dénudés fits both interpretations of this post’s title. Their sound is relentlessly vicious with Takashi Mizutani’s wailing guitar playing, masked by a thick haze of intense feedback and crippling distortion. But it’s also filled with a powerful passion. It has an urge or a certain importance that goes beyond the music itself. Another Japanese band, Suishou No Fune, is clearly influenced by their approach and delivered one of my favourite albums this year with The Shining Star. A psychedelic masterpiece with fuzzy guitar work and intense vocals drenched in reverb.

I’ve tried to bring some variation to the mix by adding various styles and moods, ranging from the highly energetic Scorch Trio, Boris and Marc Ribot to the blissful drones of Geoff Mullen. And with Les Rallizes Dénudés, Suishou No Fune and Yakouchu sitting perfectly in between. In short, here are nine songs to display my electric guitar fetish. Stay tuned for its acoustic counterpart next week.

Side Notes



Music resembles a language. Expressions such as musical idiom, musical intonation, are not simply metaphors. But music is not identical with language. The resemblance points to something essential, but vague. - T.W. Adorno

'Pleasure' then should instead be taken here as an adverbial determination of the involved awareness of the free play of the cognitive faculties. So it is not the perceptual and imaginative activity concerning the object but rather the pleasant awareness of such free activities that constitutes our judgement of taste. For a judgement of taste the subjective feeling of pleasure or displeasure is the very manner in which our inner sense 'correctly' receives the aesthetic excellence of an object. We recognize it because we want to carry on with the involved free play. -The Ideal Aesthetic Experience



3.1415 92653 58979 32384 62643 38327 95028 84197 16939 93751 ... -Pi

Since the new architecture permits no images (such as paintings or sculptures as separate elements) its purpose of creating a harmonious whole with all essential means is evident from the outset. In this way, every architectural element contributes to the attainment on a practical and logical basis of a maximum of plastic expression, without any disregard of the practical demands.-Towards a plastic architecture

Our nature demands the evidence of uniformity, as that emphasizes the impressions, making them easier to grasp and enjoy; but our nature also craves a certain degree of variety, to counteract the monotony which must result from too persistent uniformity. When the elements of Unity and Variety are sensibly matched, evenly balanced, the form is good. On the other hand, a composition is formless, or faulty in form, when the component parts are jumbled together without regard to proportion and relation. -Lesson In Music Form

The signatum always referred, as to its referent, to a res, to an entity created or at any rate first thought and spoken, thinkable and speakable, in the eternal present of the divine logos and specifically in its breath. If it came to relate to the speech of a finite being (created or not; in any case of an intracosmic entity) through the intermediary of a signans, the signatum had an immediate relationship with the divine logos which thought it within presence and for which it was not a trace. -Jacques Derrida


-Steve Crane


Awake or asleep
in a grass hut,
what I pray for is
to bring others across
before myself
-Dogen

The bulk of the promotional effort at every record company today is expended on "NEW MATERIAL" . . . the latest and the greatest of whatever the cocaine-tweezed A&R; Brass has decided to inflict on everybody. More often than not, these 'aesthetic decisions' result in mountains of useless vinyl/cardboard artifacts which cannot be sold at any price, and are therefore returned for disposal and recycling. These mistakes are expensive. -Frank Zappa


-Freemish Crate


there he was in the very same room from the window of which he had fallen, there were the same children, the same playthings, standing on the table, and the pretty castle with the elegant little dancer at the door; she still balanced herself on one leg, and held up the other, so she was as firm as himself. It touched the tin soldier so much to see her that he almost wept tin tears, but he kept them back. He only looked at her and they both remained silent. -Hans Christian Andersen

"What we play is life."-Louis Armstrong



Pop is not about individual self-expression or aesthetic innovation. It gives the public what it wants, not what it "needs." The very idea of giving the public what it "needs" presupposes someone -- a professor, a lawgiver critic in the Partisan Review mold, or a mandarin composer -- who will decide what that something is. -Dial "M" for Musicology

We are still living under the reign of logic, but the logical processes of our time apply only to the solution of problems of secondary interest. The absolute rationalism which remains in fashion allows for the consideration of only those facts narrowly relevant to our experience. Logical conclusions, on the other hand, escape us. -Le Manifeste du Surréalisme


-ubiquity_zh

The central idea, however, is that music must be connected. Music is often explained from a musicians point of view often with the written score, but not much attention has been paid to the casual listener. "Can a casual listener appreciate the differences between compositions that are well-untied and those that are not?" -musicalbomb
