OPINION: Agile Music: Artist Creativity and Music... Allaboutjazz - General News
Today I want to talk to you about a concept called Agile Music, a framework for understanding how artist creativity, industry business models and music products must all undergo a programme of radical, transformational change. I'm going to start by outlining the catalysts for this change. This time last year on this very stage I argued that the digital music market was at an impasse, that momentum was seeping out of the space at an alarming rate. Unfortunately 2011 lived up to the pessimistic billing. The market further consolidated around the Triple A of Apple, Amazon and Android and digital revenue growth remained stuck in single digit rates...
Eugene Chadbourne and Warren Smith: Odd Time Allaboutjazz - CD Reviews
All art is activist; or at least it should be when it challenges established and accepted forms that play to the laissez-faire, the reactionary and the antisocial--and the greater good of the greater number of people experiencing (or trying to experience) it. The music of Beethoven was just so, the composer cancelling the dedication of his mighty Symphony No. 3 ("Eroica") to Napoleon Bonaparte after the Frenchman declared himself Emperor. So, too, has some of the finest music of modern times been activist, whether stemming from the folk tradition, the blues or jazz. Every time this has been forgotten a bard has raised his head and voice: Woody Guthrie, m: Bob Dylan, m: Charlie Parker, m: Thelonious Monk, m: Charles Mingus...and Eugene Chadbourne... and of course, the mighty Warren Smith...
Keith Waters-Sax -- The Rotten Apples: Beach Part... Allaboutjazz - Articles
The Rotten Apples, "the tightest out-of-tune band in the world," had an antecedent in guitarist Keith Waters' Belmont High School band (Belmont is a town just north of Boston). Even that early evolutionary ancestor of the current band blew effortless attitude in the face of the powers that be. Waters remembers playing a party at the Romney estate in town. "We didn't like the party and we didn't like Romney's kids, so we left early and got back in our van." The van was boxed in on the driveway, though. "We tried getting around the car in front of us but there wasn't enough room." They ended up leaving the vehicle on the grass and coming back for it the next morning...
Theo Jorgensmann / Albrecht Maurer: Melencolia Allaboutjazz - CD Reviews
Melencolia is based on Abrecht DA1/4rer's 1514 engraving by the same name, created during Germany's horrific Peasants' Wars. However, these prominent jazz and avant-garde artists unite the brighter side of life to offset some fierce interactions. The lower register of Theo Jorgensmann's G-low clarinet synchronizes with m: Albrecht Maurer's violin and viola phrasings, bringing the duo closer from a timbral perspective. As such, the music emerges from a similar plane and intimates a tighter soundscape with a narrowed gap between higher and lower registers...
