A Reference Of Female-Fronted Punk Rock: 1977-89 (Part 1/3) This is a pretty insane project put together by my pal Vince B. from San Francisco a few years back. As the title indicates, this is a homemade 12 x CD-R (!) Compilation of punk bands fronted by female vocalists from 1977 to 1989. More like a giant mixtape than a compilation, as he only made 36 copies which he sent to friends and people who submitted material. You may notice that some of the bands didn’t have a steady female vocalist (The Lewd, etc.) but he still included songs that were sung by another member of the band. This is as international as it gets, with stuff ranging from world famous Blondie or Crass to the most obscure Eastern European cassette compilation veterans.

The boxset came packaged in a handnumbered fancy translucent lunchbox enclosing all 12 CD-Rs, a stack of full-colored cards featuring comprehensive tracklist and artwork/info, as well as a manga pin-up figure! 1.

A few out of print treasures from Ocora (RIP), probably the best global music label ever in terms of selection, recording quality, documentation and general dependable professionalism (The French perhaps always were the colonialists who paid the most attention to the cultures of those they conquered and continue to exploit, with Napoleon’s encyclopedia of Egypt still being the most comprehensive hundreds of years later), were first uploaded on my old blog a long time ago, and now have been revived by the kind soul who runs SEANCE (a place where you will find much more amazing gems).

I will also be re-upping many things from Africa, Asia, Middle East, South America, etc. in the days to come. Gambie – L’art De La Kora Jali Nyama Suso, The Gambia’s legendary kora player, for twenty years well known for his weekly program on Radio Gambia, touring England, France, Sweden, and Germany in the 1980s, died in 1991.

Recently, I opened a Tumblr account (kenny-bloggins.tumblr.com if’n yownta follow me) to post photos, graphic design work, and various sharable media.

Whilst dickin’ around late last night, I tried to find an old website of mine hosted on the now-outdated University of Kentucky student server, since it had a lot of rad photographs of mine to upload on my new Tumblr page. Said website also featured a lot of various writing I had done during my freshman year in college, including an analytical piece I wrote for one of my English classes. I decided to keyword this paper to try to locate the old website. To my astonishment, I found that a number of different people – on websites, in other college papers, and even on Wikipedia – had cited this piece I wrote back in 2003 called Brainwashing, Misanthropy, and Society: an Analysis of Boards of Canada’s Geogaddi.

I wanted to publish this piece on the blog to share with you all, as well as to give the piece a more official source. Mutant Sounds - Reups 3.

BBC radio actuality recordings: Inside the Big Ben tower 1948 | The London Sound Survey. Licorice Pizza: A Toot and a Snore. A Toot and a Snore I’ve got something a little different today. Something you can’t just push play on, and walk away while it hums in the background. Myself, I had to put on headphones and give this a careful listen. The John Lennon / Paul McCartney boot A Toot and a Snore in ‘74 has something of an infamous reputation. I’d read or heard about it somewhere and thought it sounded sort of interesting in a bizarre way.

I didn’t expect to find it and be able to listen to it anytime soon, so I just moved on. I’m going to turn the mic over to Wikipedia at this point for a description of what A Toot and a Snore is all about: A Toot and a Snore in '74 is a rare bootleg album of the final recording session in which John Lennon and Paul McCartney played together, which gained wider prominence when McCartney made reference to the session in a 1997 interview. For the most part, Lennon is on lead with his guitar, while McCartney sings harmony and plays drums. Open Culture. King Tubby. KING TUBBY - Explosive Dub O engenheiro de som King Tubby (Osbourne Ruddock) começou a carreira fazendo as misturas no gravador de 2 pistas de Sir Coxsone Dodd. Gravava as vozes numa pista, e os instrumentais na outra. Depois, para testar a qualidade das vozes, fazia um disco da mistura final, e passava-o cortando a música nos refrões.

O momento mais excitante, explica ele, era quando a música recomeçava. Um dia, levou uma dúzia destes discos para um baile de Coxsnone, e a multidão obrigou-o a repassá-los toda a noite. O produtor Bunny Lee foi quem inaugurou, mais tarde, o hábito de colocar no lado B dos singles a versão, inundando o som (a maneira de King Tubby) com muitas massas e ecos de ressonância.A maior parte dos proprietários dos velhos sound-systems continuaram em Kingston, conseguindo superar, com maior ou menor dificuldade, os períodos de confrontos políticos, de menores vendas de discos, ou interdição de bailes.

LSD - A Documentary Report (1966) by request. LSD - specyfik na całe zło epoki dzieci-kwiatów. Ponad dwa lata temu - w kwietniu 2008 roku - zmarł Albert Hoffman - wynalazca tego panaceum. Przeżył piękny wiek. Miał 102 lata. Studiował chemię na Uniwersytecie w Zurychu. Zajmował się głównie biochemią. Pracował naukowo nad budową chityny, z czego się doktoryzował. Następnie został zatrudniony w dziale farmaceutyczno-chemicznym koncernu farmaceutycznego Sandoz (obecnie Novartis). Hofmann przez całe dekady bronił swego wynalazku. Do domu wrócił na rowerze. Trzy dni po pierwszym eksperymencie z zażyciem LSD, Hofmann spróbował większej dawki. Hofmann i jego współpracownicy mieli nadzieję, że ich wynalazek wniesie ogromny wkład w psychiatrię, zwłaszcza w diagnozowanie i leczenie schizofrenii. Rząd USA zakazał sprzedaży LSD w 1966 roku, wkrótce podobne decyzje podjęły inne kraje.

Prezentowany album stanowi dokumentalny zapis wypowiedzi piewców LSD - Timothy Leary'ego, Allena Ginsberga oraz bandy Kena Keseya - Merry Pranksters. What is LSD? MUTANT SOUNDS. Alternative Tate Audio Tour… « Liberate Tate Blog. Download Tate á Tate for free at www.tateatate.org In March 2012 Liberate Tate launched an alternative audio tour of London’s Tate galleries in response to the public institution’s links with oil company BP. The series of artworks questioning Tate’s relationship with BP was been jointly commissioned by Liberate Tatewitharts and research organisation Platformand activist group Art Not Oil. The Tate á Tate Audio Tour is a permanent installation inside Tate galleries in London created through audience participation. The sound works use Tate space as their backdrop and are available for anybody to download onto their smart phones and MP3 players (from www.tateatate.org ).

The works by renowned artists draw on the immersive properties of sound to create powerful sculptural experiences designed to be listened to inside Tate Modern, Tate Britain and on Tate Boat (the riverboat crossing between the two buildings).
