Dic 23/2011
It’s funny how certain music scenes have become legendary – Merseybeat in the 60′s, London’s summer of punk in the 70′s, Sheffield’s Electro 80′s and Manchester’s ‘Baggy’ 90′s. When you break them down, they’re just a small handful of bands making very similar music during a very short but high-profile period.
When people talk about regional music scenes, they never talk about Oxford. Yet Oxford’s tight music community has been steadily producing genre-defining bands of the highest quality and integrity for pushing 30 years.
RIDE – who created (and indirectly named) the Shoegaze genre, TALULAH GOSH – the enfant terribles of Riot Girl, Britpop legends SUPERGRASS, Creation’s Alt-Rock heroes SWERVEDRIVER, current Post-Punk/Math-Rock phenomenon FOALS and – oh yeah – RADIOHEAD all came directly from this one scene. They built and took inspiration from it, they got support and encouragement from it, they cut their teeth in its venues and ultimately were launched into worldwide success from it.
But nobody’s ever heard of it.
So now, all of those bands, along with their less-succesful friends and contemporaries and the promoters, managers, journalists, record label owners and gig-goers who built the scene tell their story.
Anyone Can Play Guitar is not like most music docs. Using the unheard stories of some of the greatest bands and the greatest stories of some of the unheard bands as the backdrop to a truly unique and epic saga of success, failure, good intentions and bad outcomes. It refuses to mythologise and explores what can be achieved with community and the harsh realities of the music industry.
From the DIY spirit of the early 80′s right through to the controversial corporatisation of Oxford’s best-loved venue, ACPG tracks three decades of highs and lows in a punchy, really engaging style.
The film is narrated by cult comedian Stewart Lee
ACPG was made completely independently by film-maker and music video director Jon Spira over the course of three years.

Klootme has added a demo (1986) with On Friday's songs !!!!
The songs are: Girl (in the purple dress) and Everybody Knows
Thank you so much Klootme for your demo and story !! absolutely amazing !!!!!!
About this demo Klootme told me:
"History behind the tape is that my husband was at school with the band and partied with them (before Jonny joined them!). Phil was at Uni with us both in Liverpool. The demo was given to my husband at 17 in school. We used to go and see them play in Oxford and was friends with them. They were fairly inactive from 1987 -1990 as a band. But when everyone had finished Uni they got back together and tried to make a go of it. They went to the States...we went backpacking to India for 6 months.
Six months later we retured from India...saw Colin with a binbag full of laundry at the lauderette....."so much for the States" we laughed......."
I remember seeing them in in Oxford where me and my husband made up an audience of 6!
They weren't COOL.
The rest is history..... "
Acerca de este demo Klootme me contó lo siguiente:
"La historia detrás de este demo es que mi esposo había ido a la escuela con algunos miembros de la banda y se juntaba con ellos (antes de que Jonny se sumara a la banda). Phil estudiaba con nosotros en la Universidad de Liverpool. El demo lo consiguió mi esposo cuando tenía 17 años. Nosotros éramos amigos y solíamos ir a verlos tocar a Oxford.
La banda estuvo inactiva entre 1987 y 1990 pero cuando cada uno terminó el colegio se volvieron a reunir. Entonces ellos se fueron a USA y nosotros nos fuimos de viaje como mochileros a la India por 6 meses.
Seis meses después, cuando regresamos de India, vimos a Colin con una bolsa repleta de ropa sucia en la lavandería traída de USA y nos reímos ¡!
Yo recuerdo haber visto tocar a la banda en la vieja estación de bomberos de Oxford, el público éramos solamente seis personas ¡
No eran nada cool ¡!
El resto ya es historia conocida … "
FRAGILE FRIEND
Here's a third song from the 1986 demo tape. Recorded at Abingdon School. Baby Radiohead minus Jonny. Hear the '80's......Psychedelic Furs, The Waterboys, U2 and The Smiths influence but take note of the very Radiohead ending! Thom's voice as a 17 year old....And Phil's drumming!
GOT THEM
I don't know what is love.
I always try to figure out this ultimate question in the universe.
I always think of you,i want to stay by your side,and give you support.
But i can't.
I can't promise you i can be your SIHA.
I can't assure you i will provide what you need.
Maybe i think too much about the future.
Who's excited for the new album?
(raises hand)
This is probably the best thing to happen this year.
I am not an infatuated music lover nor a music geek. I am a mother of three, I am a teacher (of Italian, and so being Italian I know all about style and quality). I also know about genius and what I hear with RH is quite a lot of it and I get excited and dreamy and I sway and jump and dance and do things I normally don't do.
Now for the pissed off bit. Now, imagine how a 'fan' of yours (like me), might have felt when after spending an absolutely glorious first day at Glasto on Friday, she picked up the Guardian on Saturday to find, lo and behold, that the objects of her admiration and respect had been and gone, in one of the far away tents, the night before, to do a set which I expect was not seen by the people who really love them, but by whoever happened to be there....I mean is this fair? No, it is not I say!! And in a world far from fair, should we not try and make as many people as possible happy, because happiness generates happiness as we all know.
I know I am not the only one who felt this way...my friend Joe was gutted just to mention one! I mean, not even a hint in your blog?...Not a hint at Glasto on the day? Nothing!?!... (Biffy Clyro did distribute flags but who cares about them).
Well, I think personally it would be most gracious and hugely appreciated if you decided to do a gig for your 'fans' in the very near future. It need not be a big one, even just an acoustic like at Glasto, and, and, we are prepared to travel, say a venue in Oxford so you don't have to move too far.
That would be just MAGIC, just like Glasto really was this year!!!
Love you guys.

Moreover, Thom Yorke was curated the soundtrack to Rag & Bone Spring 2011 New York Fashion Week
Sasha Ring’s work under his Apparat moniker has always been evolving; over three albums on the Shitkatapult label and the collaborative full lengths with Ellen
Allien and Modeselektor as Moderat on Bpitch Control, he’s surprised a lot of
listeners with his output. Confined to little or no definitive style his music
has always been in a constant state of metamorphosis, simultaneously breaching
new waters and staying true to his unique spirit of musical openness and his
obvious passion for sound design.
Aptly joking that his DJ KiCKs selection reflects his style to “not really have a style” it’s evident that Ring is more than aware that his contribution to the
series might look ‘intelligent’ on paper – with the tracklist aligning variant
artists like Oval, Autechre, Ripperton and Thom Yorke – but given his recent
tour at the start of the year, it’s simply a representation of where he’s at in
terms of modern music. “I didn’t want to
make this kind of ‘smart’ mix, that’s eclectic and sounds like it’s done ‘on purpose;’
but I need to do different things to keep myself motivated,” Ring explains. “At
first I wanted to make a collection of influences, all kinds of old songs but
then sometimes with those mixes it’s hard to keep some kind of flow and they’re
just not very easy to listen to, so I ended up using good new music; music that
almost gave me hope that there’s more out there than boring minimal
techno.” The Apparat contribution is as
stylized as the preceding mixes in the series from Kode 9 and James Holden; with
Ring embracing the opportunity to create a mix that represents both his
personality and his brave take on ‘club’ music. With an incredibly prevalent
talent for manipulation of both tempos and melodies, Ring includes tracks from
a handful of dubstep producers like Dutch producer Martyn – whose ‘Miniluv’
provides a glorious rhythmic propulsion when under-layed beneath Patrice
Baumel’s ‘Sub’ – and Ramadanman’s ‘Tempest’ – whose melody all but dissipates
at the optimum moment – layering and blending them perfectly with tracks from
across an array of genres from Autechre’s percussive white noise to Oval’s
erratically colourful sound slices or the echoed clicks of Phon.o’s
‘Intervall.’
“A mix needs a bit of dynamic,’ he states. “There were these weirder things I wanted to use, like this Four Tet remix (of Born Ruffian’s ‘I Need A Life’) and
then there are some tracks i had to use as tools to glue it all togehter. The
way I used the Martyn track is more of a tool to adjust the Patrice Baumel
track dynamically to the following ones. But most of the songs are in there for
musical reasons. All these artists have their own sound signatures and manage
to inject that space into every new song they produce.”
Achieving a sense of progression in the mix through both his selections and his awareness of sonic space, Ring manages to harness his enthusiasms for frequency perfect
soundscapes, often creating moments of sheer beauty out of his polarized
composite parts.
“The mix isn’t that balanced when it comes to melody I guess,” he continues, considering his point. “There’s a lot of sweetness on there, but it is dark and
mysterious at points. I guess the bittersweet-ness has long been kind of my
thing and with this mix I was just trying to spice it up a bit.”

ELECTRONICA WITH BBC CONCERT ORCHESTRA & JONNY GREENWOOD
English
Charles Hazlewood conductor
Jarvis Cocker presenter
Will Gregory Moog Ensemble
We have now released a number of tickets for restricted-view seats at this sold-out concert.You can reserve your ticket by phone 0844 847 9910 (£2.50 transaction fee). Transaction fees apply per transaction, not per ticket.
Instrumental music by Goldfrapp's Will Gregory, Radiohead's Jonny Greenwood and others featuring theremins, Moogs and ondes Martenots - electronic instruments that were once symbols of music catching up with the Machine Age, yet still today appear somehow futuristic.
Director Alfred Hitchcock invited surrealist artist Salvador Dalí to create a dream sequence for his film Spellbound. Miklós Rózsa's soundtrack for this scene evokes the otherworldly with a theremin - an eternally mysterious instrument that conjures sound without being touched.
Hollywood got wind of this and soon Bernard Herrmann's score for the 1951 sci-fi epic The Day The Earth Stood Still was made rich with sonic lunar landscapes created by wibbly wobbly theremins and a Hammond organ rewiring the conventional orchestral palette.
French composer André Jolivet's Suite delphique is a sonic monolith with woodwind, percussion and ondes martenot at its core.
And, moving into the Space Age, Wendy Carlos' synths transform familiar Bach melodies into mechanistic sound sculptures, Radiohead's Jonny Greenwood infuses his rock albums with ondes Martenot glissandos and tremolos, bringing that tactile sound to his orchestral piece Smear, and Goldfrapp's Will Gregory reimagines the Moog synthesiser in his Journey into the Sky.

El guitarrista de Radiohead Jonny Greenwood será parte de un concierto clásico por la BBC Concert Orchestra. Greenwood, artista residente de la BBC, compuso música con instrumentos electrónicos que fueron alguna vez símbolos de la música poniéndose al día con la era de las máquinas, sin embargo, aún hoy aparecen de alguna manera futurista.
En la sala inglesa de la Reina Isabel la BBC Orchestra presenta la primera de una serie de tres partes el 6 de Octubre del presente año.La velada titulada ‘Electrónica‘ explora la evolución de los instrumentos electrónicos y sus sonidos fusionados en lo ‘real’ y lo ‘vivo’ con música instrumental de Goldfrapp Will Gregory, Jonny Greenwood y otros presentando theremins, Moogs y las clásicas ondas Martenots.

Thom Yorke DJ SET
thanks a lot twitter friends !!!
English
http://la.guestofaguest.com/events/thom-yorke-djs-nightswim-at-tropicana
Tropicana's weekly Nightswim party is always a great time, but last night's was especially awesome when it turned philanthropic with The Voice Project. Oh, and the musical genius of Radiohead, Thom Yorke, took over the turntables. Nightswim has been the Thursday night spot
throughout the summer, with a special guest DJ here and pop up shop there over
the weeks. Last night's installment of the party was presented by The
Voice Project, a group that works for the peace movement in Uganda through art
and music. The L.A. Ladies ChoirNigel Godrich,Ana Calderon, and Bryan Ling spun special sets for the crowd. The party hit awhole new level when the one-and-only Thom Yorke got on the decks.Yes, we're talking about the lead singer/songwriter of the eminent, Radiohead. Although L.A. tried to keep its 'too cool forschool' attitude in check, you know everyone was totally pooping their pants --an appropriate response to the musical icon. Dancing to Thom Yorke's musicalselection? Enough said. The night was fantastic, and all for a good cause. performed live for the attendees, and DJs.
Español
Todos los jueves, las fiestas en Tropicana Nightswim son divertidas pero la de anoche fue fabulosa. Con el fin de reunir fondos para The Voice Project (una organización de artistas que trabaja a favor de la paz en Uganda), Thom Yorke, el genio de Radiohead, se puso al frente de las bandejas. Ofreció su dj set para los asistentes entre los cuales se encontraban Nigel Godrich, Ana Calderón, Bryan Ling, entre otros. Si bien los famosos intentaban comportarse con naturalidad y bailar como si no pasara nada, era evidente que todo el mundo estaba muy impresionado por tener a Thom Yorke pinchando bandejas.
