The Great Albums

<div>Take a deep dive into legendary hip-hop group Run-DMC’s groundbreaking album, Raising Hell, on its 40th anniversary with this handsome slipcased celebration. In 1985, Queens, New York–based rap group Run-DMC teamed with heavy metal producer Rick Rubin to record their breakthrough album and one of the most influential songs in rap and rock. The album, Raising Hell, went double platinum and sold over 3 million copies. The song, a collaboration with rock group Aerosmith covering that band’s 1975 hit “Walk This Way,” is credited with pushing hip-hop into the mainstream and launching the rap-rock genre. In Run DMC and Raising Hell: 40 Years, noted&nbsp;hip-hop historian JayQuan examines every aspect of the release, including:&nbsp; <ul><li>A look back at the group’s career prior to 1986</li><li>Track-by-track analyses of each side</li><li>Figures associated with the group and the release, such as producer Rick Rubin</li><li>The supporting tour and promotional efforts that followed the album’s release</li><li>The group’s career after the LP</li></ul> JayQuan draws heavily from his interviews with key figures, including surviving group members Joseph “Run“ Simmons and Darryl “DMC” McDaniels, as well as studio and label personnel. Illustrated with performance and off-stage photography, as well as select memorabilia, this beautiful slipcased hardcover is the ultimate word on a work that had a towering impact on both rap and rock and is an essential addition to the collection of any fan. The Great Albums series presents authoritative explorations of rock’s most revered records, beautifully packaged for fans to treasure. Delve into even more groundbreaking releases with: Pink Floyd and The Dark Side of the Moon, The Who &amp; Quadrophenia, Prince and Purple Rain, Queen &amp; A Night at the Opera, Bruce Springsteen and Born to Run, Rush and 2112, and many more to come.</div>

40 Years

Run-DMC and Raising Hell

33 1/3

Through rare access to the Violent Femmes and their archives, this book investigates the creation of such iconic songs as "Blister in the Sun", "Kiss Off", "Add it Up" and "Prove My Love", as well as the album's recording process. The self-titled debut from Milwaukee post-punk acoustic trio the Violent Femmes is one of those rare albums that seems to have altered the course of popular music and influenced just about everyone who heard it while also managing to operate almost entirely outside of the mainstream. Released in 1983 to little sales or attention, the band was so iconoclastic that it couldn't even engender support from Milwaukee's anti-establishment punk scene. Over the ensuing years, though, Violent Femmes managed to exert itself as an unstoppable cultural force, ascending the college radio charts and spreading through word-of-mouth. Violent Femmes didn't sound like anything else when it was made, and it still doesn't sound like anything else. The album somehow exists both outside of time and as one of the most evocative and enduring artifacts of the alternative '80's.

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.

Visionär, Genie, Ikone

'Ich richtete mich auf zu diesen Klängen. Ich ging los. Und weg. Woanders hin. Wie kommt es, dass Musik einen so starken Eindruck hinterlässt, dass ein Weiterleben ohne sie unmöglich scheint?'

'1999', 'Purple Rain', 'Kiss': Prince ist ein musikalisches Genie und Wunderkind. Doch er wurde nur 57 Jahre alt. Sein unbändiger Schaffensdrang kostete Kraft und verlangte ihm viel ab. Rebecca Spilker kommt der geheimnisumwitterten Pop-Ikone auf die Spur, indem sie persönliche Erinnerungen an Prince' Konzerte mit der Analyse seiner Alben und Filme verknüpft und seine Offenheit gegenüber non-binären und sexuell freizügigen Lebensentwürfen porträtiert.

'Rebecca Spilker analysiert Musik und Gesellschaft mit einer messerscharfen Leichtigkeit, die man sonst nur von japanischen Schwertern kennt.' Johann Scheerer

Mit 4-farbigen Abbildungen und Infografiken.
