And now on a MacBook.Īnd all that pointless background is really for nothing. I was using them on a windows 7 machine back then. Out of curiosity, I pulled my Ivory discs off the shelf and managed to get them installed and working again after dusting off the old iLok hardware key. In just the last couple of months I’ve started to start trying to record some things again. At that time I ended up buying Synthogy Ivory (wound up with their grand piano trilogy and then the Italian grand). I am not much of a pianist, but I had a lot of fun with it. Some years ago, I spent a fair bit of time playing around with recording piano pieces. Information - Concerts, News,FAQs, Archives. Organs - Electronic (B3 etc.), Pipe, Theatre.

It wasn't responsible for creating contemporary christian attitudes it simply mirrors the values and ideals of that culture. Contemporary Christian music was a result of contemporary worship movements that began in the early 1970's. But if you already are a part of that community, you can find in it an avenue for growth and expression. To go back to what I said about Bartok earlier, music is the inevitable result of culture. The Soviet Union tried it (with RAPM, the Russian Association of Proletarian Musicians), but it didn't work. Senator Jesse Helms's attempts to abolish the NEA in the wake of Andres Serrano's famous exhibit and the shutdown of Mapplethorpe's planned Corcoran exhibit were attempts at preserving Christian values in the United States.Īnd 60 years before that, a certain charismatic leader tried to preserve the decency of his people by getting rid of degenerate music and art as well:Īs for me, I believe that art reflects societal conditions, it doesn't create them. The idea of the arts being held accountable for the downfall of society also has precedent. This should be required reading for anyone interested in how women have been portrayed by artists. Misogyny isn't just a late 20th century hip-hop phenomenon. These lyrics could be soundtrack to The Wire And, most importantly, you need to approach this music with an open mind: hip hop artists NEVER claimed to be musicians. One thing i love about hip hop is how diverse it can be, anything goes if people like it. That s the image i would have too if all i saw was MTV type rap. But you cannot blame a lotr of people for thinking rap is just stupid lyrics with half naked brainless women on videos and some untalented gangster wannabee mumbling meaningless lyrics. What the uninterested listener doesn t know is that there is a huge community of "conscious" rappers, a huge underground scene that has been bringing the best of hip hop in the last 15-20 years, and some truly interesting lyrics really worth being given a chance. Commercial rap is all about "ice", "bling bling", macho postures and usually ficticious stories of ganster activity. And with huge possibilities.Ĭhopinwazmyhomes, you need to take into considerationn that a lot of people who know hip hop from merely what goes on heavy rotation on mtv or mainstream radio are missing a huge part of it. Moreover i think it s one of the most interesting styles of modern music. Yes there is instrumental hip hop, and i quite like some of it. Hip Hop has contrbuted massively to the looping and sampling techniques and it s gorwing uses in music not to forget how hip hop has supported vinyl in times where barely anyone else but dance music was supporting it. What a great post!Īs for those denying the impact of hip hop on the technology, just think, how many samples would akai sell yearly based on Steve Reich's impact on audiences (with all due respect).
