Unravelling Rap's Masked Iconoclast

Histories of Electronic Musical Instruments

The Roland x0x Series: A History of Early Roland Synthesizers and Drum Machines from SH-101 to TR-909 offers an authoritative but accessible investigation of how the design of these most influential musical instruments is shaped by technological factors, institutional contexts, market forces and imagined users and uses. Drawing on the perspectives of designers and engineers along with musicians and producers from around the world, the book explores how these iconic instruments both enable and constrain the creative work made with them.Providing detailed analysis of these seminal instruments, this book combines archival research that draws on contemporary reviews, instruction and service documentation, advertising and marketing materials, and technical analysis of the underlying analogue and digital circuits, with discussion of creative composition and performance practice, hardware and software modifications and modern remakes, emulations and clones. The Roland x0x Series is dedicated to demystifying these mainstays of popular music, and revealing the 'hidden histories' of the creation, lives and afterlives of these most important, recognisable, yet often misunderstood, synthesizers and drum machines.This is an essential reference for music producers and music technology enthusiasts, as well as those studying music technology, instrument design and human interaction in the context of electronic music.

Punk Spirit! ventures into the emotional and personal experiences of punk artists and activists from around the world and highlights intelligent, thoughtful, and humorous discussions on liberation, spirituality, and living freely.

Chapters dive deeply into a variety of interconnected realms of punk rock such as the subgenre of straight edge, Krishnacore and Taqwacore, evangelical punk concerts in southern California churches, illegal punk concerts in East German churches, anti-religious sentiment within punk rock, the vital connections between punk and self-expression, and the myriad ways punk rock has been combined with spiritual and religious traditions to illuminate ideas from science, atheism, Buddhism, Christianity, Judaism, Islam, and other ways of being in the world.

*Winner of the Elizabeth Longford Prize and the Franco-British Society Literary Award* *Shortlisted for the Duff Cooper Prize* A magnificent biography of the founder of ImpressionismIn the course of a long and exceptionally creative life, Claude Monet revolutionized painting and made some of the most iconic images in western art. Behind this great and famous artist is a volatile, voracious, nervous yet reckless man, largely unknown. Jackie Wullschläger's enthralling biography, based on thousands of never-before translated letters and unpublished sources, is the first account of Monet's turbulent private life and how it determined his expressive, sensuous, sensational painting. Monet said he was driven 'wild with the need to put down what I experience'. This rich and moving biography immerses us in that passionate experience, transforming our understanding of the man, his paintings and the fullness of his achievement.

As a musician, award-winning producer, and talent manager, Peter Asher has both witnessed and participated in seismic changes in the music business-from the British Invasion in the 1960s to corporate takeovers of independent labels in the 1970s; from the MTV era to the nearly unrecognizable industry of today. Throughout, he has been virtually alone in his success as a hitmaker and producer for world-famous artists. His ability to produce projects across a vast range of genres-rock, country, jazz, classical, movie soundtracks-is simply without peer. In this extraordinary account-the product of over twelve years of research-author David Jacks tells Asher's story with verve and warmth. It draws on hours spent interviewing Asher, who granted exclusive access to his personal archives. Jacks also weaves in recollections from artists and friends including James Taylor, Linda Ronstadt, Jackson Browne, Cher, David Crosby, Marianne Faithfull, Steve Martin, Robin Williams, and many more. In a business rife with shady characters, Peter Asher's intelligence, honesty, and business sense have earned the respect of all he's worked with. As this unforgettable biography shows, he has quite a story to tell.

Over the course of the last 180 years, designers have transformed fashion from an elite craft into a cornerstone of global popular culture. This brilliantly written classic guide to the lives and collections of 59 iconic fashion designers was first published in 2009 and is now available in this fully revised and expanded third edition. It draws on the latest academic research and the best of fashion journalism, including the authors' own interviews with designers. Beginning with Charles Frederick Worth and concluding with the star names of the twenty-first century, the book details each designer's working methods and career highlights with engaging essays that capture the spirit of their times. This new edition widens its remit to explore designers making waves beyond the Western world. It features six new designer profiles: Virgil Abloh, Iris van Herpen, Japan's Nigo, China's Uma Wang, India's Sabyasachi and Nigeria's Shade Thomas-Fahm. The text has also been updated throughout to reflect growing concern within the fashion world over sustainability issues, and to document a business in constant ferment, with designers swapping jobs and fashion houses at unprecedented speed. The Great Fashion Designers explores these designers' passion and flair, showcasing fashion at its most inspirational.

'Berlin, das war sein weißes Blatt
Die schizophrene Geisterstadt
Wo jede Wahrheit, die man spricht,
Auch mindestens zwei Seiten hat'

Die Graphic Novel Weißes Papier basiert auf einem Gedicht von Joe Bliese, in dem er seine persönliche Wahrnehmung und kollektive Erfahrung zu einem poetischen Panorama der Stadt seit dem Mauerfall verdichtet - ein Werk zwischen Rhythmus, Reim und Zeitgeschichte. Die detaillierten und eindrücklichen Illustrationen mit Cité Noirs unverkennbarem Pinselstrich lassen uns in das Berlin des namenlosen Protagonisten eintauchen.

Fasten your seatbelts, darlings, it's been one helluva ride. 'If there's a more enthralling celebrity memoir out this year, I'll eat my bowler hat.' The Times '[A] high-kicking hoofer of a book.' Telegraph 'A heady brew of gossip, glamour and defiance.' Guardian 'Brilliant and bonkers' The Mirror Liza Minnelli is one of the most iconic and enduring figures in entertainment history. Now, in her first and only memoir, Liza tells her story in her own words - and what a story it is. Born into Hollywood royalty, Liza was the daughter of legendary director Vincente Minnelli and the incomparable Judy Garland - and yet her beloved 'Mama's' brilliance was matched by searing personal battles, making her mother both an inspiration and, at times, a source of fear. In this deeply candid memoir, Liza pulls back the curtain on her extraordinary life, from her meteoric rise to Broadway and Hollywood stardom to the whirlwind of high-profile marriages and relationships, as well as the private heartbreaks of multiple miscarriages and lifelong struggle with Substance Use Disorder. As told her her most beloved confidant, music icon Michael Feinstein, Liza relives the liberated nights at Studio 54, the activism and friendships that shaped her - including the likes of Frank Sinatra, Elizabeth Taylor, Halston, Mary J. Blige, Michael Jackson and Princess Diana - and the fearless way she defied conventions, embracing sexual fluidity and battling bigotry at a time of limited public understanding. But above all, as she turns 80 years old, Liza is reclaiming her truth, dispelling tabloid myths and setting the record straight with stories she's never shared before. Raw, strong, sexy, hilarious and unapologetically honest, this is a defiant celebration of self-belief, survival and humanity - proving once and for all why Liza remains one of the most captivating performers the world has ever known. Wilkommen to the world of Liza.

The first volume of Peter Guralnick's critically acclaimed Elvis Presley biographies 'Elvis steps from the pages. You can feel him breathe' BOB DYLAN 'Wonderful' RODDY DOYLE Last Train to Memphis is arguably the first serious biography that refuses to dwell on the myth of Elvis. Aiming instead to portray in vivid, dramatic terms the life and career of this outstanding artistic and cultural phenomenon, it draws together a plethora of documentary and interview material to create a superbly coherent and plausible narrative. This is the first of three volumes from music critic and author, Peter Guralnick, and covers Presley's stratospheric rise to stardom up to his departure for Germany in 1958. Last Train to Memphis is undoubtedly the benchmark by which other biographies of Elvis are judged. 'Soars above all other accounts of Elvis' GUARDIAN 'A triumph of biographical art... profound and moving' NEW YORK TIMES
