Albini explains in detail how major labels would carelessly spend money on promotion, thereby propping up record stores, radio stations and PR companies, safe in the knowledge that this money would be recouped at the artists’ expense."<br />
<br />
<b>1993 -</b> <a href="http://www.thebaffler.com/salvos/the-problem-with-music">The Problem with Music - The Baffler</a>: "Whenever I talk to a band who are about to sign with a major label, I always end up thinking of them in a particular context. I imagine a trench, about four feet wide and five feet deep, maybe sixty yards long, filled with runny, decaying shit. I imagine these people, some of them good friends, some of them barely acquaintances, at one end of this trench. I also imagine a faceless industry lackey at the other end, holding a fountain pen and a contract waiting to be signed.<br />
<br />
"Nobody can see what’s printed on the contract. It’s too far away, and besides, the shit stench is making everybody’s eyes water. The lackey shouts to everybody that the first one to swim the trench gets to sign the contract. Everybody dives in the trench and they struggle furiously to get to the other end. Two people arrive simultaneously and begin wrestling furiously, clawing each other and dunking each other under the shit. Eventually, one of them capitulates, and there’s only one contestant left. He reaches for the pen, but the Lackey says, 'Actually, I think you need a little more development. Swim it again, please. Backstroke.'<br />
<br />
"And he does, of course."<br />

<b>2014</b> - <a href="http://www.theguardian.com/music/2014/nov/17/steve-albinis-keynote-address-at-face-the-music-in-full">Steve Albini on the surprisingly sturdy state of the music industry – in full | Music | The Guardian</a>: "The music producer, Shellac frontman and author of seminal 1993 essay, The Problem with Music, spoke in Melbourne about the advantages of the internet, the death of the major label system, copyright law and that ‘purple dwarf in assless chaps’"<br />

One of my favorites, <u>Big Time</u> by Tom Waits, didn’t show up anywhere. Bummer.
Looking at the these lists, it’s clear that there is a lot of consensus out there on which concert films are clearly the best…"<br />

Those windows behind David offer one of the most spectacular views of the Portland skyline around. This is a pretty rough photo shot with my iPhone (all that was allowed) and I couldn’t get the skyline because I was sitting on the floor, in front, right at his feet. Bad for photography, great for a fan (which I am… David’s my favorite out of that old crew and <em>Urban Urbane</em>, to me, is one of the best albums of the 1990s)…</p> <p>Been too busy recently and the photo of the day is working more like a photo of the week, but I press on anyway. Tons of work going into getting <a href="http://www.illuminatedimaging.com" target="_blank">Illuminated Imaging</a> launched and we’ve had a pretty serious health issue in the family (don’t worry, everyone is doing well), so time has been at a premium here recently.

<br />
I'm in! <br />
<br />
HOWEVER, their next show is the evening my Seachickens are playing the Broncos in the freakin' SUPERB OWL (thanks, Colbert, for the trademark infringement workaround). <br />
<br />
So, it will probably be next time... <br />
<br />
Until then, here's the show info and some videos...<br />

A. show, at the bottom here, was filmed. I know some people thought Trent was getting a little too mellow and sedate, trying to hide behind the light show, but I loved it. First time I've ever seen Nine Inch Nails live.<br />
<br />
I actually was meh on Trent for a long time (like 20 years) and only recently got back into NIN. The full concert video from Lollapalooza was responsible for that.<br />
<br />
We were sitting pretty high and to the left of the stage for the Portland show, so while the lights were pretty cool, we missed some of the full effects, so I am happy to see that there is a well shot, pro video of the show so I can see what we missed.<br />

The things I’ve written about wouldn’t be considered a big deal if they appeared in a book or movie.’</blockquote> <blockquote>“He played the sport of alienating listeners, defending the right to contradict himself in hostile interviews, to contradict his transgressive image by idealizing sweet or old-fashioned values in word or sound, or to present intuition as blunt logic. But his early work assured him a permanent audience.<br>… </blockquote> <blockquote>“The composer Brian Eno, in an often-quoted interview from 1982, suggested that if the group’s first album, ‘The Velvet Underground & Nico,’ sold only 30,000 copies during its first five years — a figure probably lower than the reality — ‘everyone who bought one of those 30,000 copies started a band.’”</blockquote><span style="line-height: 18px; background-color: white; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; color: #333333; font-size: 13px">I discovered Lou a little late, when the New York album came out. I saw the review in the back of Rolling Stone, more stars on it than I’d ever seen, and decided to pick it up. That shortly led to me discovering the Velvet Underground and, I suppose, I am one of those who heard the first Velvet’s record and started a band.

Samantha Crain opened, was really good, and talked about how she lived in Portland for a while. </p> <p>When she mentioned this, she expected some cheers and was met with crickets, which surprised her. Surprised me, too, really. I think my reaction, though, was that she looked and sounded a lot like a Portlander so it really wasn’t that suprising. My reaction was more along the lines of, “Ok, then. I can see that.”</p> <p>Good though. Great show. Wish more people saw it.

These parts are called ‘objects’ – visual boxes that contain tiny programs to do something specific. Each object does something different. Some make noises, some make video effects, others just do simple calculations or make decisions. In Max you add objects to a visual canvas and connect them together with patchcords. You can use as many as you like. By combining objects, you create interactive and unique software without ever writing any code (you can do that too if you really want to).

When I followed the link I thought it'd be a cover, but no, it's the original, processed. It's uncanny - the song is just as familiar as always but the impact is utterly different. Kind of like finding a colour print of a film you'd only known in black and white, or seeing Garfield minus Garfield for the first time.

Ranging from solos and duos to sextets and beyond, Sideband is an evolving project that inspires composers, performers and audience members to reevaluate the role of computers in music.</em></p> <p><em>Sideband’s parent ensemble, the <strong>Princeton Laptop Orchestra (PLOrk)</strong>, was formed in 2005 by Dan Trueman (composer, Norwegian fiddler, and computer music hacker) and Perry Cook (computer scientist, electrical engineer, and music hacker) to be a test-lab for a new way of thinking about electronic and ensemble music. PLOrk has performed widely (in Princeton, New York, Chicago, and Washington D.C.), has won a MacArthur Foundation grant, and has worked in collaboration with Zakir Hussain, the American Composers Orchestra, Matmos & So Percussion, and others.</em></p> <p><em>Sideband was conceived out of a desire to explore the PLOrk model of music making in a more sustained fashion, outside the annually changing context of academic classes. Formed in 2008 to premiere a piece with the American Composers Orchestra at Carngie Hall, Sideband is currently made up of a group of long-term members whose skills range from orchestral percussion to installation art, research in machine-learning algorithms, traditional Norwegian folk music, solo performance, electroacoustic music, software design, and scored composition.</em></p></blockquote><iframe height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/dq_RCzkWX9M" frameborder="0" width="640" allowfullscreen></iframe> <h3> </h3> <h3>Related Posts</h3> <div class="wlw_related_posts">from tag <a href="http://del.icio.us/aflitt/PLOrk">PLOrk</a><br> <ul> <li><a href="http://retroviruslab.blogspot.com/2013/02/plork-princeton-laptop-orchestra.html#">Retrovirus Lab: PLOrk (Princeton Laptop Orchestra)</a></li></ul>from tag <a href="http://del.icio.us/aflitt/Otherness">Otherness</a><br> <ul> <li><a href="http://rubble.blogspot.com/2012/02/airplane-caught-on-google-earth.html">Rubble: Airplane Caught on Google Earth</a> <li><a href="http://rubble.blogspot.com/2011/12/hoxton-street-monster-supplies-more-826.html">Rubble: Hoxton Street Monster Supplies & more 826 goodness…</a> <li><a href="http://retroviruslab.blogspot.com/2012/04/google-translate-trick.html">Retrovirus Lab: Google Translate Trick</a> <li><a href="http://rubble.blogspot.com/2012/12/on-end-of-world-tentatively-scheduled.html">Rubble: On the end of the world (Tentatively scheduled for this Friday…)</a> <li><a href="http://rubble.blogspot.com/2012/12/december-is-cruel-month.html">Rubble: December is a cruel month</a> <li><a href="http://rubble.blogspot.com/2012/05/every-nuclear-explosion.html">Rubble: Every Nuclear Explosion…</a> <li><a href="http://retroviruslab.blogspot.com/2011/11/ancient-artifact-washed-ashore-remnants.html">Retrovirus Lab: An ancient artifact washed ashore, remnants of lost times...</a> <li><a href="http://retroviruslab.blogspot.com/2011/12/craigs-list-groupie-ad.html">Retrovirus Lab: Craig’s List Groupie Ad… Here Comes Sickness</a> <li><a href="http://retroviruslab.blogspot.com/2012/02/bjork-fine-line-between-brilliance-and.html">Retrovirus Lab: Bjork: The fine line between brilliance and insanity… (Featuring “Cosmogony” as performed on The Colbert Report)</a> <li><a href="http://retroviruslab.blogspot.com/2013/02/wheelharp.html#">Retrovirus Lab: Wheelharp</a> <li><a href="http://retroviruslab.blogspot.com/2011/12/listen-to-first-recording-of-human.html">Retrovirus Lab: Listen to the first recording of human voices…</a></li></ul><a href="http://del.icio.us/aflitt/Otherness">(more..)</a></div> A.

However, these days, digital cameras are just much more light sensitive, and then there is the ability to vary ISO per shot, not per role, so that helps a lot. Also, being able to review the shots on the spot is tremendously helpful in these situations, because I can keep firing away until I know I've captured what I've been aiming for.<br><br>This last year, when I started taking cameras around with me pretty much everywhere, it was only natural to start taking some shots at shows, and I have been happy with the results.<br><br>I really like playing with the stage lighting, good performers do interesting things, and I can get some of the good, blurry but nice weird effects that I like, giving me a lot to play with in editing.<br><br>This last year, time and budget kept me from making it to many shows. Hopefully 2013 will give me plenty of new opportunities to continue developing my technique with live band photography and to build up a more solid portfolio in this area.</p> <p><a href="http://www.talenthouse.com/photography-soundgarden"><strong><u>Photograph Soundgarden</u></strong></a><strong><u>:</u></strong> </p> <blockquote> <p><em>Looking for photographers to shoot dates on the tour.

They are friends of mine, so I am a bit biased, but I do really like them, so that makes it much easier.

Just some music and some pictures. </p> <p>Both these groups are pretty new, so they don’t have a lot of music available on line yet. I know Abash’t is less than a year old, and I am not sure how long Disenchanter has been around, but about the same, I think. </p> <p>Anyway, I am sure that both bands have some better quality demo material in the works, below I’ve posted what I was currently able to find on-line.</p> <h3>Abash’t </h3> <p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/abashtband">https://www.facebook.com/abashtband</a></p> <p><a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-SnSFMvyZaEk/UIRTBZlZhhI/AAAAAAAAl2Y/GizCvumRHq0/s1600-h/IMG_3685%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Abash't.

I was posting a lot on the YouTube playlists and on the Facebook page, but not here…</p> <p>Anyway, these guys inspired me to post again after they popped up on my shuffle play a little bit ago. I found them last winter and then kind of forgot about them. This summer, they played a show or two around town, and I remembered the name and that I liked them, but I didn’t remember them well enough to get off my ass and to one of their shows. Kicking myself now…</p> <p>This is the song that got me all fired up today, “The Buoyancy Test”. Yeah, it’s a lot Neil Young-ish (through the Swans, maybe?), but that is okay. There is room for more of this! </p> <p><iframe class="widget_iframe" height="104" src="http://www.reverbnation.com/widget_code/html_widget/artist_1189148?widget_id=50&posted_by=artist_1977362&pwc[design]=default&pwc[background_color]=%23333333&pwc[included_songs]=0&pwc[song_ids]=6504265&pwc[photo]=1%2C0&pwc[size]=custom" frameborder="0" width="640" scrolling="no"></iframe></p> <p>The rest of their songs from <a href="https://www.reverbnation.com/denimwedding" target="_blank">ReverbNation</a>…</p> <p><iframe class="widget_iframe" height="320" src="http://www.reverbnation.com/widget_code/html_widget/artist_1189148?widget_id=50&posted_by=artist_1977362&pwc[design]=default&pwc[background_color]=%23333333&pwc[included_songs]=1&pwc[photo]=1%2C0&pwc[size]=custom" frameborder="0" width="640" scrolling="no"></iframe></p><iframe height="480" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/SG22-1CAAS0" frameborder="0" width="640" allowfullscreen></iframe><iframe height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/zSYG7cN373g" frameborder="0" width="640" allowfullscreen></iframe><iframe height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/Pa5GlkPAjN8" frameborder="0" width="640" allowfullscreen></iframe> <h3> </h3> <p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Denim-Wedding/136817396367841"><strong><u>https://www.facebook.com/pages/Denim-Wedding/136817396367841</u></strong></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.reverbnation.com/denimwedding"><strong><u>https://www.reverbnation.com/denimwedding</u></strong></a></p> <p><a href="http://www.myspace.com/denimwedding"><strong><u>http://www.myspace.com/denimwedding</u></strong></a></p> <p><a href="http://denimwedding.com/"><strong><u>http://denimwedding.com/</u></strong></a></p> <h3>Related Posts</h3> <div class="wlw_related_posts">from tag <a href="http://del.icio.us/aflitt/NW">NW</a><br> <ul> <li><a href="http://retroviruslab.blogspot.com/2012/03/songs-of-long-walk-3rd-planet-by-modest.html">Retrovirus Lab: Songs of the long walk… “3rd Planet” by Modest Mouse</a> <li><a href="http://retroviruslab.blogspot.com/2012/02/talkdemonic-mini-documentary-motion.html">Retrovirus Lab: Talkdemonic: A Mini-Documentary & "Midcentury Motion"</a> <li><a href="http://retroviruslab.blogspot.com/2012/01/what-i-am-listening-to-now-invincible.html">Retrovirus Lab: What I Am Listening To Now: “Invincible” by Paisley Rose</a> <li><a href="http://retroviruslab.blogspot.com/2011/11/alternative-meaninglessness.html">Retrovirus Lab: Alternative meaninglessness…</a> <li><a href="http://retroviruslab.blogspot.com/2011/10/bands-lost-in-foggy-wastes-of-my-memory.html">Retrovirus Lab: Bands Lost In The Foggy Wastes Of My Memory: Slam Suzzanne</a> <li><a href="http://retroviruslab.blogspot.com/2011/11/what-i-am-listening-to-now-city-sleep.html">Retrovirus Lab: What I Am Listening To Now: "City Sleep" by Talkdemonic</a> <li><a href="http://retroviruslab.blogspot.com/2011/10/what-it-was-like-living-room-rough.html">Retrovirus Lab: What It Was Like (Living Room Rough Mixes) by Retrovirus Lab on Soundcloud & ReverbNation</a> <li><a href="http://rubblebase.tumblr.com/post/12633594096/retrovirus-lab-100th-post-what-i-am-listening-to-now">Retrovirus Lab: 100th Post!
