Say Goodbye to Cymbal Bleed
deBleed is no traditional noise gate!

It has been designed from the ground up to remove cymbal bleed effectively while still letting the Kick, Snare, and Toms ring through without affecting their tone.

It achieves this by processing the signals independently, cutting out the unwanted cymbal noise without touching the important parts of the signal.

Expressive Intersections in Brahms Essays in Analysis and Meaning screenshot
2012 | ISBN: 0253357055 | English | 316 pages | EPUB | 7 MB
Contributors to this exciting new volume examine the intersection of structure and meaning in Brahms's music, utilizing a wide range of approaches, from the theories of Schenker to the most recent analytical techniques. They combine various viewpoints with the semiotic-based approaches of Robert Hatten, and address many of the most important genres in which Brahms composed. The essays reveal the expressive power of a work through the comparison of specific passages in one piece to similar works and through other artistic realms such as literature and painting. The result of this intertextual re-framing is a new awareness of the meaningfulness of even Brahms’s most "absolute" works.

Post-Punk Then and Now screenshot
English | 2016 | ISBN: 1910924261 | 304 pages | EPUB | 6 MB
What were the conditions of possibility for art and music-making before the era of neoliberal capitalism? What role did punk play in turning artists to experiment with popular music in the late 1970s and early 1980s? And why does the art and music of these times seem so newly pertinent to our political present, despite the seeming remoteness of its historical moment? Focusing upon the production of post-punk art, film, music, and publishing, this book offers new perspectives on an overlooked period of cultural activity, and probes the lessons that might be learnt from history for artists and musicians working under 21st century conditions of austerity.

All Shook Up: How Rock 'n' Roll Changed America screenshot
English | ISBN: 0195177495, 0195139437 | 2004 | 240 pages | PDF | 16 MB
The birth of rock 'n roll ignited a firestorm of controversy―one critic called it "musical riots put to a switchblade beat"―but if it generated much sound and fury, what, if anything, did it signify?
As Glenn Altschuler reveals in All Shook Up, the rise of rock 'n roll―and the outraged reception to it―in fact can tell us a lot about the values of the United States in the 1950s, a decade that saw a great struggle for the control of popular culture. Altschuler shows, in particular, how rock's "switchblade beat" opened up wide fissures in American society along the fault-lines of family, sexuality, and race. For instance, the birth of rock coincided with the Civil Rights movement and brought "race music" into many white homes for the first time.

Music in the Western: Notes from the Frontier presents essays from both film studies scholars and musicologists on core issues in western film scores: their history, their generic conventions, their operation as part of a narrative system, their functioning within individual filmic texts and their ideological import, especially in terms of the western’s construction of gender, sexuality, race and ethnicity. The Hollywood western is marked as uniquely American by its geographic setting, prototypical male protagonist and core American values.

When Little Richard burst onto the scene in the early 1950s, he sounded like nothing on earth. Drenched in sweat, screaming, hollering and pumping his piano, he made all who followed soud tame.

Here comes Charles White's sensational book exposing the even more astonishing life and times of Richard Wayne Penniman from Macon, Georgia. Illustrated with pictures from Little Richard's own archive and including a comprehensive discography.

Bert The Life and Times of  A. L. Lloyd screenshot
Language: English | 2012 | ISBN: 0745332528 | 456 pages | PDF | 5,45 MB
Folk singer and folk music collector, writer, painter, journalist, art critic, whalerman, sheep station roustabout, Marxist, and much more - this is the story of A. L. (Bert) Lloyd's extraordinary life.

Bert Lloydis more than an account of A.L. Lloyd's key part in the folk music revival of the 1950s and '60s. Dave Arthur documents how Lloyd became a member of the Communist Party, forceful antifascist, trade unionist, and an important part of left-wing culture from the early thirties to his death in 1982. Following his return from Australia as a 21 year-old, self-educated agricultural laborer, he was at the heart of the most important left-wing movements and highly respected for his knowledge in various fields.
