BEATBOX BATTLE TV | BEATBOX BATTLE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP – INTERVIEW – SHOWCASE – FREESTYLE – TUTORIAL Imogen Heap Mozart's Dice Game Frou Frou A collaboration between musician/vocalist Imogen Heap and producer/arranger/songwriter/musician Guy Sigsworth , Frou Frou manufactured an impressive brand of vocal-driven, electronic pop formerly the exclusive territory of Björk . The British duo had been collaborating for years without a record deal, and after what must have been countless hours matching Sigsworth 's studio finesse and trickery with Heap 's breathy yodel, the group's debut, Details , was completed for American release on MCA Records in 2002. Heap and Sigsworth first worked together on "Getting Scared" from Heap 's 1998 solo record iMEGAPHONE . After completing the promotion for that splendid debut, Heap was ready to begin work on a new project and the two hooked up again as Sigsworth had privately been compiling music specifically for Heap while producing other projects.

The public will be able to listen in as the project unfolds and later in the year a series of extraordinary new musical compositions will be published. Award-winning sound artist and composer Matt Parker will start his project, The Imitation Archive, this week and he will produce a permanent sound archive of the restored and recreated working machines at the Museum. Once recorded and archived, Parker will use the audio material to create a series of interlinked musical compositions that will reflect the development of computing from the code-breaking Colossus computer up to the present day. Sneak previews of the work will be made available on the TNMOC website www.tnmoc.org, and the Museum’s Facebook, Google+ and Twitter accounts. Matt Parker will be giving a talk on his work at TNMOC on Thursday 16 April 2015 at 7.30pm. Notes To Editors
the Gloves Dr Adam Stark is the co-founder of the interactive arts technology studio Codasign and a post-doctoral researcher at the Centre for Digital Music at Queen Mary University of London. He is interested in developing new ways to create music through interactive technology. In particular, he wants to make electronic music performative and engaging to watch on stage, working with artists and musicians to integrate interactive technologies into their shows and installations. He has been interested in music since childhood, growing up playing in bands in and around London. Staying on at Queen Mary, from 2007 to 2011 he wrote a PhD on using intelligent musical analysis technologies to create new forms of interaction in live performance. He continues to explore technologies in live performance in particular as part of six-piece instrumental band, Rumour Cubes.
A comeback for the humble cassette? - Features - Music - The Independent His nonplussed response was delightful. We were witnessing the obsolescence of technology at first hand, right there; as we explained how it worked it almost felt like we were experts on an episode of Antiques Roadshow. (Although sadly in the item in question was worth almost nothing.) Two brothers, Benny and Rafi Fine, have seen the viral potential of this kind of thing, and have recently started a series on YouTube called Kids React To Technology. While vinyl has experienced a hipster resurgence in popularity – 780,000 albums were sold last year, the highest tally since 1997 – the cassette, with its stern instructions to "spool to end of tape before playing other side", looks hilariously retro. Some people lament its passing, naturally. Nor, indeed, did the recipient. You can see why that idea might still appeal to musicians; one label called Tapeworm has been celebrating the act of listening for many years with its runs of 250 cassette-only releases.
Imogen Heap's iBlog BBC Radio 4 - In Search of the Black Mozart, Episode 1 Imogen Heap | Official Website Boil the Frog Boil the Frog lets you create a playlist of songs that gradually takes you from one music style to another. It's like the proverbial frog in the pot of water. If you heat up the pot slowly enough, the frog will never notice that he's being made into a stew and jump out of the pot. With a Boil the frog playlist you can do the same, but with music. How does it work? To create a Boil The Frog playlist, just type in the names of two artists and a playlist will be generated that takes you gradually, step by step, from the first artist to the second artist. If you are a logged-in Rdio subscriber you will hear full tracks, otherwise you will hear excerpts. Here are some examples How does it really work? To create this app, The Echo Nest artist similarity info is used to build an artist similarity graph of about 100,000 of the most popular artists. When a playlist between two artists is created, the graph is used to find the path between the two artists. Who made this?
