Re: (313) Juan Atkins Up For A Grammy
Even if he sold the publishing rights he'd still be getting money from the songwriting rights. (royalties are usually split 50% between the owner of the publishing rights and the songwriter, if the publishing rights are owned by somebody else that is, correct me if I'm wrong!) -skkatter On 12/01/06, Cyclone Wehner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I have been told that he's not getting any publishing royalties for > it as he doesn't own the publishing, was sold long ago - I hope I'm > wrong! -- http://www.skkatter.net

Re: (313) my morning mischief
Yeah, I always thought dance music was for dancing to! :) A friend of mine who DJed a few times in the states but is based in the UK told me how when he played a few places in the states nobody would dance. They all liked the music, clapped at the end or whatever, but kept perfectly still despite the dance music he was playing. With techno/electro/house I usually think it's the DJs job to get people to dance. I suppose if it's weird chin strokey musique concrete or whatever then it's more acceptable to stand around and have a bit of a shoe gaze (I always try to have a dance anyway, if I like what's being played). Must be a states thing, check out Cylob's "rave photo" page, he also talks about how nobody in the US dances at gig: http://www.cylob.com/rave_photos/ravephotos.html -skkatter On 07/12/05, Kent Williams <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > A party with a bunch of anoraks standing around is a party with no vibe. -- http://www.skkatter.net

Re: (313) 313 music inspired by films/art
A bit of the soundtrack from the Film Nausicaa was sampled by Jega on his Cardhore EP on Skam Records (the track was also called Nausicaa): http://www.discogs.com/release/188 As for the "music that samples old films", I'd say there's countless tracks out there that do. Practically half of the "nu electro" I own samples some old school sci-fi films (THX 1138, The Last Starfighter, 2001, are a few examples, I suppose these aren't as obscure as Nausicaa though). Anybody else listen to much of Jega's stuff? More on the "IDM" (which is up there with "electronica" as the worst music terms ever) tip, he also samples (or basically covers) one of the tracks from the film Tron the first track (Alternating Bit) on his Geometry album on Planet Mu. -skkatter On 06/12/05, Sam K <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > The word "Nausicaa"...does it ring a bell? well it did for > mesure enough their was a favorite blippy melodic electro record > put out on planet-e by Flexitone (Brendan m Gillen + others?) with the > same name.. -- http://www.skkatter.net

Re: (313) The more things change
But what *is* the difference between sound and music? Maybe the difference is just your interpretation of it. Somebody mentioned Autechre a while ago, I'll use that as one example. Anybody ever hear the Gantz_Graf track they did? I think that's music, but I'd never in a million year be able to convince my parents that it was. (have a listen to it, it's pretty much all timestretched drills and delay effects) Now take some whale noises recorded by a mic in the sea, does that sound musical to us? I bet to the whales it just sounds like whale talk. Could this be with same with bird "song"? I remember reading an interview with My Bloody Valentine's front man Kevin Sheilds many years ago (before he become a complete recluse) where he said that he kept hearing music around London, in the subways, on the streets, trains passing him in certain ways sounded musical. This was before I'd ever heard of musique concrete or John Cage or any eletronic music and I was thinking "What the hell is he on about!? Music without playing a guitar or a keyboard? That's nuts!" I'd be of the opinion that a persons interpretation of the sound is what makes it music, to them. I think "the rules" of what is music (if there were any) keep expanding as we become more open minded to different sounds and start listening to them in different ways. Like my Grandmother always said about The Beatles "That's not music, it's just noise!" -skkatter On 04/11/05, Thomas D.
