David Hilowitz Japanese Vocal Synthesizer [Patreon Exclusive] [Decent Sampler]-FANTASTiC screenshot
FANTASTiC | 09 April 2024 | 462 MB
I made a video about the Pocket Miku: a unique vocal synthesizer from Japan. As part of that, I also made a bunch of sample libraries by feeding the Pocket Miku into the Hologram Microcosm. These are mostly cinematic pad sounds, but the sample libraries have ADSR controls, so you can easily turn them into pluck or keys instruments if you like. NOTE: This is not a port of the Pocket Miku. For copyright reasons, I’m not able to include the raw Pocket Miku sounds in this download, so this contains only the highly processed Microcosm sounds.

A Really Strange and Wonderful Time: The Chapel Hill Music Scene: 1989-1999 [Audiobook] screenshot
English | ASIN: B0CFBVBKHN | 2024 | 10 hours and 20 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 276 MB
The first biography of the thriving and influential rock scene in Chapel Hill, which gave the world artists like Ben Folds Five, Superchunk, and Squirrel Nut Zippers. North Carolina has always produced extraordinary music of every description. But the indie-rock boom of the late 1980s and early ‘90s brought the state most fully into the public consciousness, while the subsequent post-Grunge free-for-all bestowed its greatest commercial successes. In addition to the creation of legacy label Merge Records and a slate of excellent indie bands like Superchunk, Archers of Loaf, and Polvo, this was the decade when other North Carolina artists broke Billboard’s Top 200 and sold millions of records―several million of which were issued by another indie label based in Carrboro, Chapel Hill’s smaller next-door neighbor.

Hear, Listen, Play - How to Free Your Students' Aural, Improvisation, and Performance Skills screenshot
2014 | ISBN: 0199995761 | English | 156 pages | PDF | 2 MB
Hear, Listen, Play! is a book for all music teachers who are unfamiliar with, yet curious about the worlds of ear-playing, informal learning, improvisation, and vernacular musics. For decades, or even hundreds of years, a divide has slowly been developing between the realms of notation-based musical transmission, and aural/oral methods. Yet that divide is by no means a necessary aspect of music learning, and musicians who are lucky enough to dwell on both sides of it count themselves as so much the richer for doing so. This book aims to provide a door into those other worlds for any teacher who would like to open it.

A Man Made of Music Henry Cowell screenshot

Joel Sachs offers the first complete biography of one of the most influential figures in twentieth-century American music. Henry Cowell, a major musical innovator of the first half of the century, left a rich body of compositions spanning a wide range of styles.

He worked tirelessly to create organizations such as the highly influential New Music Quarterly, New Music Recordings, and the Pan-American Association of Composers, through which great talents like Ruth Crawford Seeger and Charles Ives first became known in the US and abroad.
