Thought-Forms Production Session 05] 90s Ambient DnB with JD-990 TUTORiAL-FANTASTiC screenshot
FANTASTiC | 29 November 2024 | 130 MB
Raw (no narration) studio session laying down some synths + bass over a beat - in the style of PFM. All synth sounds from the JD-990, and some outboard FX (Quadraverb / Zoomstudio.) The JD-990 crashed near the end as I was honing in on a decent lead sound (needs a new battery, thankfully nothing serious)

Choral Fantasies: Music, Festivity, and Nationhood in Nineteenth-Century Germany screenshot
English | ISBN: 0521760712 | 2012 | 284 pages | PDF | 3 MB
Most histories of nineteenth-century music portray 'the people' merely as an audience, a passive spectator to the music performed around it. Yet, in this reappraisal of choral singing and public culture, Minor shows how a burgeoning German bourgeoisie sang of its own collective aspirations, mediated through the voice of celebrity composers. As both performer and idealized community, the chorus embodied the possibilities and limitations of a participatory, national identity.

Beethoven and the Grosse Fuge: Music, Meaning, and Beethoven's Most Difficult Work screenshot
English | ISBN: 0810874180 | 2010 | 180 pages | EPUB, PDF | 5 MB
The Grosse Fuge, composed by Ludwig van Beethoven in his late period, has an involved and complicated history. Written for a string quartet but published as an independent work, the piece raises interesting questions about whether music without words can have meaning, and invokes speculation about the composer and his frame of mind when he wrote it. Kahn looks closely at the musical, aesthetic, philosophical, and historical problems the work raises, considering its history, structure and development, meaning, and response among critics and contemporaries. Kahn also studies Beethoven's difficulties with publishers and sponsors, his everyday life, and his character in light of recent advances in the pharmacology of depressive illness.

American Music Documentary: Five Case Studies of Ciné-Ethnomusicology screenshot
English | ISBN: 0819578002 | 2018 | 312 pages | EPUB, PDF | 11 MB
A critical companion to the most celebrated music documentaries of the twentieth century
Documentary filmmakers have been making films about music for a half-century. American Music Documentary looks at five key films to begin to imagine how we might produce, edit, and watch films from an ethnomusicological point of view. Reconsidering Albert and David Maysles's Gimme Shelter, Jill Godmilow's Antonia: A Portrait of the Woman, Shirley Clarke's Ornette: Made in America, D.A. Pennebaker's and Chris Hegedus's Depeche Mode: 101, and Jem Cohen's and Fugazi's Instrument, Harbert lays the foundations for the study and practice of "ciné-ethnomusicology." Interviews with directors and rich analysis from the disciplinary perspectives of film studies and ethnomusicology make this book a critical companion to some of the most celebrated music documentaries of the twentieth century.

Decentering Musical Modernity: Perspectives on East Asian and European Music History screenshot
English | ISBN: 3837646491 | 2020 | 374 pages | PDF | 8 MB
This collection investigates the concept of modernity in music and its multiple interpretations in Europe and Asia. Through contributions by both European and Asian musicologists it discusses how a decentered understanding of musical modernity could be matched on multiple historiographical perspectives while attentive to the specificities of local music and their narratives in Asia and Europe. The essays connect local, global and transnational history with sociological theories of modernity and modernization, making the volume an important contribution to overcoming the Eurocentric dichotomy between western music and world music within the field of historical musicology.
