Rest in Peace, Mark Lanegan (1964-2022)

Posted on February 25, 2022 by tundranaut

Nick Cave has a nice tribute to Mark Lanegan at the Red Hand Files: As a frontman, I move around a lot on stage, I can’t help it, it is a habitual nervous thing, a kind of neurotic compensation for a voice I have never felt that comfortable with. But watch Mark, watch how he…

Hiding Songs

Nick Cave on Leonard Cohen and “hiding songs”: …not only are these songs sacred, they are ‘hiding songs’ that deal exclusively in darkness, obfuscation, concealment and secrecy…the purpose of these songs was to shut off the sun, to draw a long shadow down and protect…from the corrosive glare of the world.

Xenakis resisted the label of being a mere mathematician in music just as surely as he refused the idea of his music’s political or social message, and it was of course how he used those scientific principles (outlined in his book, Formalized Music) to create pieces of shattering visceral power.

Xenochrony

Posted on July 10, 2019August 1, 2019 by tundranaut

“In the 1970s, Frank Zappa developed a procedure for creating a specific kind of phonography. By altering the speed of previously recorded material and overdubbing unrelated tracks, Zappa was able to synthesize ensemble performances from scrap material… “He referred to the technique as xenochrony…Zappa translates the term as ‘strange synchronizations,’ referring to the incidental—and aesthetically…
