(313) Aki Latvamäki - 3 remastered EPs OUT NOW

2010-09-24 Thread Aki Latvamäki

Aki Latvamäki aka. Artificial Latvamäki has remastered his first three EPs, 
which are now fresh and hot sounding and available for listening and specially 
priced download from http://latvamaki.bandcamp.com

Included are such tracks as:

*"Mänty", a detroit techno influenced melodic minimal groover, which was 
originally released on Trapez, Germany

*"It Is Not Now Either", a true club anthem supported by such as Ellen Allien 
and James Zabiela amongst others

*"A Bath Tub Of Full Mutated Bees", where IDM, noise and detroit feel collapse 
into infernal, mutated space-techno

Bio: "Aki Latvamäki hails from the city of Oulu in Northern Finland. With 
releases on Curle and Cocoon among others and DJ support from the likes of Sven Väth 
and Ellen Allien, he is one of Finland’s most talented up-and-coming techno 
producers.

Latvamäki started experimenting with musical ideas at the tender age of 10 with 
an Amiga 500. Soon he joined an alternative rock band, which eventually changed 
style to minimal krautrock influenced by bands like Circle and Burzum. But 
before long it was all about 4/4 bass drums, IDM, techno, and everything in 
between, even Commodore 64 sound scapes.

  From these elements, Artificial Latvamäki’s brand of innovative minimal techno was 
born. His first single was released by Germany’s Trapez label in 2005 and he started 
doing selected live gigs, including a performance in Frankfurt’s prestigious Cocoon 
club in 2007. Currently Latvamäki is working on his debut album."

I spoke to Aaron last night and he is in good spirits. He said that the 
outpouring of love from all over has really helped. He has been in the hospital 
for several days now and they had not been able to make a formal diagnosis. It 
wasn't until they removed the fluid around his lungs did they discover it. 

On a positive note, they do feel they discovered it in the early stages and 
that it will be treatable. They will be testing his bone marrow today and 
hopefully make a formal diagnosis. 

If you have a free second, stop by his Facebook and leave him a message. His 
only connection to the world right now is his blackberry.

(313) Sound Design + Electronic Music History

2010-09-24 Thread Martin Dust
We touched on this a bit yesterday but I thought I'd share these links with 
people.

It's difficult listening in places but very interesting and worth sticking it 
out.

The idea of a completely original piece of music is fairly recent. Music was 
passed on through sound, through generations, even for centuries after the 
invention of written music. Only in the 14th century did it become standard 
practice for a composer to sign his name to a piece of music and claim it 
entirely as his own, giving rise to the cult of the individual composer. But as 
recording supplanted sheet music in the 20th century, the presence of communal 
influence became unavoidably obvious once again as composers began to use 
recordings to make new recordings. We can now hear the presence of more than 
one voice. And there is a reason why people don't say they listen to a record – 
they say that they play a record. From the beginning, recordings have been 
instruments.

The first episode of this overview of appropriative collage in music covers the 
years 1909 through 1961, beginning with Charles Ives, who composed in a cut and 
paste style with sheet music in a way that anticipated what later composers 
would do with multi-track tapes and mixers. We skip through decades to arrive 
at "Twisting the Dials", the Happiness Boys' 1928 tribute to late night radio 
surfing, before moving to John Cage's proto-sampling pieces for radio and tape, 
"Credo in US" and the "Imaginary Landscapes". We witness the million-selling 
cut-in records of Buchanan and Goodman and the resulting lawsuits, Richard 
Maxfield's tape cut-ups of a sermonizing preacher, and conclude with James 
Tenney's dedicated dissection of a single recording of Elvis: "Collage No. 1", 
the first 'remix'.

I don't feel people have been that negative, if you're going to be outspoken 
then you should at the very least expect people to answer back.

A lot of people didn't seem to like the above interview much, I kinda did :)
