Book Synopsis J Dilla's Donuts by : Jordan Ferguson
Download or read book J Dilla's Donuts written by Jordan Ferguson and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2014-04-24 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From a Los Angeles hospital bed, equipped with little more than a laptop and a stack of records, James “J Dilla” Yancey crafted a set of tracks that would forever change the way beatmakers viewed their artform. The songs on Donuts are not hip hop music as “hip hop music” is typically defined; they careen and crash into each other, in one moment noisy and abrasive, gorgeous and heartbreaking the next. The samples and melodies tell the story of a man coming to terms with his declining health, a final love letter to the family and friends he was leaving behind. As a prolific producer with a voracious appetite for the history and mechanics of the music he loved, J Dilla knew the records that went into constructing Donuts inside and out. He could have taken them all and made a much different, more accessible album. If the widely accepted view is that his final work is a record about dying, the question becomes why did he make this record about dying? Drawing from philosophy, critical theory and musicology, as well as Dilla's own musical catalogue, Jordan Ferguson shows that the contradictory, irascible and confrontational music found on Donuts is as much a result of an artist's declining health as it is an example of what scholars call “late style,” placing the album in a musical tradition that stretches back centuries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ghostnotes: Music of the Unplayed is an extended photo essay with more than two hundred images that represent a mid-career retrospective of B+’s photography of hip-hop music and its influences. Taking its name from the unplayed sounds that exist between beats in a rhythm, the book creates a visual music, putting photos next to each other to evoke unseen images and create new histories. Like a DJ seamlessly overlapping and entangling disparate musics, Cross brings together LA Black Arts poetry and Jamaican dub, Brazilian samba and Ethiopian jazz, Cuban timba and Colombian cumbia. He links vendors of rare vinyl with iconic studio wizards, ranging from J Dilla and Brian Wilson to Leon Ware and George Clinton, David Axelrod to Shuggie Otis, Bill Withers to Ras Kass, Biggie Smalls to Timmy Thomas, DJ Shadow to Eugene McDaniels, and DJ Quik to Madlib. In this unique photographic mix tape, an extraordinary web of associations becomes apparent, revealing connections among people, cultures, and their creations.
Download or read book Stone's Throw written by David Deitcher and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Literary Nonfiction. Art. Essays. LGBT Studies. This multi- layered text describes the social, political and personal context that framed the emergence of one of the most critically acclaimed artists of the late-20th century, Felix Gonzalez- Torres. STONE'S THROW attests to the importance of relationships forged throughout the most challenging years of the North American AIDS crisis, as Deitcher recounts his friendships with Gonzalez-Torres, with the activist curator Bill Olander, and the milieu to which they belonged. The title, STONE'S THROW, refers to the resonating effects on the author of a single sentence by Carl Andre: "My sculptures are masses and their subject is matter." Gonzalez-Torres brought that sentence to the author's attention soon after Deitcher accepted the artist's invitation to write the introductory essay for the catalogue that accompanied Gonzalez-Torres's 1992 project for Magasin 3 Konsthall (Stockholm). Now, twenty years after Gonzalez-Torres's death, Deitcher revisits many of his most celebrated works. STONE'S THROW strikes a balance between personal remembrance and cultural analysis, and is richly illustrated with previously unpublished ephemera and full color reproductions of poignant works by, among others, Nayland Blake, Tony Feher, Jim Hodges, and Roni Horn. In its combination of critical re-evaluation and personal testimony, STONE'S THROW marks a further development in Deitcher's commitment to writing intimate art histories. "David Deitcher is a master at the critical memoir. STONE'S THROW is a sumptuously written elegy not only for Felix Gonzalez-Torres and Bill Olander, but also for all those artists we lost to AIDS." Marvin J. Taylor, director, Fales Library and Special Collections"

Book Synopsis Next of Kin Next Door by : Christopher Noël
Download or read book Next of Kin Next Door written by Christopher Noël and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We need a radically new approach to Sasquatch research. For much too long, we have stereotyped our next of kin, certain that they must confine themselves only to the most remote wilderness, occasionally sneaking up to campsites just long enough to scare the hell out of us before withdrawing once again to the far corners of the forest. Incorrect. Increasingly, evidence is pointing a different way, toward an intimate proximity between our two species. Until we can demystify Sasquatch, know them as a fellow human species, and begin to get a handle on their fascinating behavior and intellectual gifts, they will remain abstract "monsters" seen through the wrong end of a telescope. What if they are not, after all, too far away for us to see-what if they are too close?
Download or read book Beat Box written by Joe Mansfield and published by . This book was released on 2014-03-07 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Author Joe Mansfield selected 75 drum machines from his collection of 150 and had them impeccably photographed. He then documented their related collateral, including original packaging and advertising and wrote piquant essays about the machines' history, original release, and subsequent usage (often totally"off-label"). Starting with Wurlitzer's Side Man, originally released in 1959, Mansfield proceeds to document some of the most prominent andwell known drum machines like the Roland TR-808 alongside lesser known and yet-to-be discovered gems such as the Band Master Powerhouse, ending the lesson with the Sequential Circuits' Studio 440 unit, released in 1987. The incredible design of the machines themselves is thoughtfully augmented by a great layout and interviews with early adopters of the technology Schooly D, Davy DMX, and Marshall Jefferson. Limited edition in leatherette case includes download card, 7" record and cassette tape.
Book Synopsis Seventy-three Funshine by : Jason Jägel
Download or read book Seventy-three Funshine written by Jason Jägel and published by Electric Works; RAM. This book was released on 2008-09-10 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This delightful, large-format monograph by contemporary artist Jason Jagel features over 200 images from Jagel's career, spanning childhood sketches and family snapshots, but largely focusing on his current practice, his sometimes-loose, sometimes-tight narrative paintings and works on paper. Hip-hop influences, family life, and the humming buzz of the street are often found in a single work. Jagel's work has been increasingly influenced by the music he listens to; this connection has been strengthened by his record cover designs for the LA-based hiphop label Stones Throw. One of Stones Throw's major artists, Madlib, has three tracks that appear on a companion 10-inch vinyl record, an unexpected feature included in this artists' book.
Book Synopsis A Stone's Throw Further by : Samuel Greene
Download or read book A Stone's Throw Further written by Samuel Greene and published by Glory Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2014-11-25 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many times if God's precious sheep would have a revelation of the truth of going just a stone's throw further as Jesus did in the garden of Gethsemane, they would have a greater understanding of what's happening to them, and therefore not only survive but overcome in their dealings, trials, adversity, etc. The Lord is constantly calling us upward and onward. All that we go through in this life is for that purpose. The sad thing is few people realize that the difference in being an overcomer or a defeated, frustrated disciple, most of the time, is just a simple stone's throw. If we would just hang in there and press on a little further, fight just a little harder, persevere a little longer, we would have our breakthrough, and we would have grown spiritually, being changed into that same image (II Corinthians 3:18), becoming more and more like Jesus! It seems we are given choices every day as to whether to press on just a little further or to take the path of least resistance and stop. Every day, deep is calling unto deep (Psalms 42:7). Jesus seems to keep saying, "Follow me." May the Lord help us to see and to have a holy desire to not be satisfied with the status quo or to rest on our laurels with what we've already attained. But may us see the place afar off as Abraham did and go yonder towards it (Genesis 22:4). It is the place of sonship that our glorious God is calling and leading us to. Going there could be just hanging in there a little while longer, not quitting or giving up or giving in to our flesh or to sin and the devil. We have to choose to go after all that God wants for us. And it's just a stone's throw further; we can do it if we allow His great grace to work through us. This book was written to help us see what the Scriptures declare, so we can make a godly choice. May our precious Lord Jesus and the great Holy Spirit, along with the grace and mercy of our heavenly Father, encourage us to go just a stone's throw further today as we press towards the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus (Philippians 3:14).
