You hear them in the car, while jogging, over computer speakers while you blog (as I am now, listening to the Dave Matthews project I mastered yesterday), and from the tiny little earbuds plugged into your iPhone. How do you listen to records? You take the record out carefully and clean it. You double check the tone arm balance and anti-skate. You set the first side on the platter, cue the tone arm, sit back and listen—often playing an entire side your eyes closed and your ears wide open. Boogie Everywhere I Go - John Lee Hooker.

Next week marks the release of the Tom Cruise-starring sci-fi blockbuster Oblivion.
Besides the fact that it boasts one of the biggest movie stars in the world as its lead, one of the major hooks for the movie involves, of all things, the soundtrack. Composed by M83’s Anthony Gonzalez, the score is an epic, soaring piece that is a must-have for any fans of Gonzalez’s work with M83. It also serves as an ideal talking point for a trend that has gained prominence in recent years. Whereas film scores were once exclusive to classically trained individuals like Bernard Herrmann, Elmer Bernstein, Ennio Morricone, John Barry and John Williams, the past 30 years has seen a major buck in that trend. Today, it’s not uncommon for filmmakers to bring in rock, soul, electronic or even hip-hop artists to create the sound of their film. The following list will pick out some of the exceptional film work demonstrated by some our favorite musicians. 28. 27. 26. 25. 24. 23. 22. 21. 20. 19. 18.
Mputer-designed-by-scientists-to-compose-music-which-makes-the-brain-feel-happy-8507437. Researchers, who believe the mood-altering music-writing software can help combat stress and depression, will unveil the first composition created by the project at a music festival in Plymouth tomorrow.
(Sat) The project is being led by Dr Eduardo Miranda, a composer and professor at Plymouth University’s Interdisciplinary Centre for Computer Music Research (ICCMR), and Dr Slawomir Nasuto, a professor in the Cybernetics Research Group at the University of Reading. Using Artificial Intelligence techniques, the computer will play music and analyse the brain activity of the listener for emotional indicators. Based on this feedback, and a programmed knowledge of music, it will generate new sounds that can alter these emotions.
Jazz. Pattern music. Josquin des Prez. 1611 woodcut of Josquin des Prez, copied from a now-lost oil painting done during his lifetime[1] Josquin des Prez (or Josquin Lebloitte dit Desprez; French: [ʒɔskɛ̃ depʁe]; c. 1450/1455 – 27 August 1521), often referred to simply as Josquin, was a Netherlandish composer of the Renaissance.

For the British aviator, see John Noel Dowland. Career and compositions[edit] Two major influences on Dowland's music were the popular consort songs, and the dance music of the day.[13] Most of Dowland's music is for his own instrument, the lute.[14] It includes several books of solo lute works, lute songs (for one voice and lute), part-songs with lute accompaniment, and several pieces for viol consort with lute.[15] The poet Richard Barnfield wrote that Dowland's "heavenly touch upon the lute doth ravish human sense. " One of his better known works is the lute song "Flow my tears", the first verse of which runs: Flow my tears, fall from your springs, Exil'd for ever let me mourn; Where night's black bird her sad infamy sings, There let me live forlorn. Dowland's song, "Come Heavy Sleepe, the Image of True Death", was the inspiration for Benjamin Britten's "Nocturnal after John Dowland for guitar", written in 1964 for the guitarist Julian Bream.

After the Les Six period, Durey continued with his career. In the late 1950s and early 1960s he continued to compose but produced nothing of significance.
