MattyyyM GHOULS: "Call of Silence" Guitar Tab-FANTASTiC screenshot
FANTASTiC | 19 October 2024 | 1 MB
I'm sorry to say that I couldn't get the backing track and stems for this cover, as it was made on my previous iMac. I still have it, but with my plugin licenses transferred to my Macbook I can't open the project with the mixing in place. Also there are issues with then opening the old projects onto my new Macbook as they run on different processors, which I know sucks and shouldn't be an issue.

Twine is a versatile, low fidelity, lossy, multi-effects mixer. Packed with six separate effect algorithms, Twine will warp and bend your incoming audio signal into all sorts of aural dissections. Each effect has a Mood control that alters the fundamental algorithm while a Chance control affects the probability that the algorithm will come through the mix. This creates constantly evolving, mutable, effects chains that will modify your sound in pleasantly unpredictable ways.

The Bloomsbury Handbook of Popular Music and Social Class is the first extensive analysis of the most important themes and concepts in this field. Encompassing contemporary research in ethnomusicology, sociology, cultural studies, history, and race studies, the volume explores the intersections between music and class, and how the meanings of class are asserted and denied, confused and clarified, through music. With chapters on key genres, traditions, and subcultures, as well as fresh and engaging directions for future scholarship, the volume considers how music has thought about and articulated social class. It consists entirely of original contributions written by internationally renowned scholars, and provides an essential reference point for scholars interested in the relationship between popular music and social class.

A Blaze of Light in Every Word: Analyzing the Popular Singing Voice (Oxford Studies in Music Theory) screenshot
2020 | English | 216 pages | ISBN-10 ‏: ‎019005221X | ISBN-13 ‏: ‎978-0190052218 | 12 MB
The human singing voice holds immense power - to convey mood, emotion, and identity in songs, provide music's undeniable "wow" moments, and communicate a pop song's meaning perhaps more than any other musical parameter. And unlike the other aspects of musical content - like harmony, form, melody, and rhythm, for which generations of scholars have formed sophisticated analyses - scholarly approaches to vocal delivery remain grossly underdeveloped. An exciting and much-needed new approach, A Blaze of Light in Every Word presents a systematic and encompassing conceptual model for analyzing vocal delivery.

Bending the Rules of Music Theory Lessons from Great Composers screenshot
English | 328 pages | Routledge; 1st Edition (February 20, 2019) | 1138478245 | PDF | 30 MB
For students learning the principles of music theory, it can often seem as though the tradition of tonal harmony is governed by immutable rules that define which chords, tones, and intervals can be used where. Yet even within the classical canon, there are innumerable examples of composers diverging from these foundational "rules." Drawing on examples from composers including J.S. Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, Mendelssohn, Chopin, Brahms, and more, Bending the Rules of Music Theory seeks to take readers beyond the basics of music theory and help them to understand the inherent flexibility in the system of tonal music. Chapters explore the use of different rule-breaking elements in practice and why they work, introducing students to a more nuanced understanding of music theory.

Greek and Latin Music Theory: Principles and Challenges screenshot
2020 | English | 236 pages | ISBN-10 ‏ : ‎ 1580469957 | ISBN-13 ‏: ‎978-1580469951 | 3 MB
Long recognized as a foundation of musical composition, criticism, pedagogy, and appreciation, the literature of ancient and medieval music theory has maintained its strong position in the academic curriculum up to the present day. Now blessed with fine English translations of many of the ancient and medieval authors, modern students of music theory have advantages that their predecessors lacked just a few generations ago. Yet the ancient writings by themselves do not yield to easy comprehension. They need expository help. In this collection of fifteen topical essays, the author offers a contribution to that educational goal. Covering a dense theoretical literature from the classical period of ancient Greece to the sixteenth century of the Common Era, these essays present a detailed examination of subjects of concern not only to specialists in the history of theory, but to scholars of the general history ofancient Greek music and the liturgical plainchant of the medieval West.

2018 | Faber and Faber Limited | ISBN: 9780571323982 | 5 MB | 429 Pages | EPUB
In Mars By 1980, David Stubbs charts the evolution of electronic music from the earliest mechanical experiments in the late nineteenth century, through to the familiar sounds of electronica, house and techno that we know today. It’s a tale of mavericks and future dreamers overcoming Luddite resistance, malfunctioning devices, and sonic mayhem. The beginnings may be in the world of avant-classical composition, but it continues on through the cosmic funk of Stevie Wonder and Giorgio Moroder, via the astonishing sounds of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop, through unforgettable eighties electropop by the likes of Depeche Mode, the Pet Shop Boys and Laurie Anderson, and right up to present-day innovators on the underground scene.
