Judy Nylon
Judy Nylon (born Judith Anne Niland in 1948) is a multidisciplinary United States, American artist who moved to London in 1970. She was half of the Punk rock, punk rock music group Snatch, which also featured fellow American expat Patti Palladin. She had an influence on glam rock, glam, punk and no wave music in New York City and London, although the bulk of this has not been preserved in any record. ''NME''s Paul Tickell described her LP ''Pal Judy'' (1982), coproduced by Nylon and Adrian Sherwood, as "a classic rainy day bit of sound and song to drift away to." Nylon is the subject of Brian Eno's song "Back in Judy's Jungle" and appeared in the video for the song "China My China", from his 1974 LP ''Taking Tiger Mountain (By Strategy)''. Eno also credits Nylon as an influence in the genesis of ambient music on the back cover of his 1975 LP ''Discreet Music''. In 1978, Eno and Snatch made "R.A.F." (b/w "Kings Lead Hat"), which involves sound elements from a Baader Meinhof ransom ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Discreet Music
''Discreet Music'' is the fourth studio album by Brian Eno, and the first released under his full name (as opposed to simply "''Eno''"). The album is a minimalist work, with the titular A-side consisting of one 30-minute piece featuring synthesizer and tape delay. The B-side features three variations on Canon in D Major by Johann Pachelbel, performed by the Cockpit Ensemble and conducted by Gavin Bryars. While his earlier collaborations with Robert Fripp and several selections from '' Another Green World'' (1975) feature similar ideas, ''Discreet Music'' marked a clear step toward the ambient aesthetic Eno would later codify with 1978's '' Ambient 1: Music for Airports''. Background Brian Eno's concept of ambient music builds upon a concept composer Erik Satie called " furniture music". This means music that is intended to blend into the ambient atmosphere of the room rather than be directly focused upon. Like Satie's notion of music that could "mingle with the sound of th ...

Electronica
Electronica is both a broad group of electronic-based music styles intended for listening rather than strictly for dancing and a music scene that came to prominence in the early 1990s in the United Kingdom. In the United States, the term is mostly used to refer to electronic music generally. History Early 1990s: Origins and UK scene The original widespread use of the term "electronica" derives from the influential English experimental techno label New Electronica, which was one of the leading forces of the early 1990s introducing and supporting dance-based electronic music oriented towards home listening rather than dance-floor play, although the word "electronica" had already begun to be associated with synthesizer generated music as early as 1983, when a "UK Electronica Festival" was first held. At that time electronica became known as "electronic listening music", also becoming more or less synonymous to ambient techno and intelligent techno, and was considered distinc ...

Artforum
''Artforum'' is an international monthly magazine specializing in contemporary art. The magazine is distinguished from other magazines by its unique 10½ × 10½ inch square format, with each cover often devoted to the work of an artist. Notably, the ''Artforum'' logo is a bold and condensed iteration of the Akzidenz-Grotesk font, a feat for an American publication to have considering how challenging it was to obtain fonts favored by the Swiss school via local European foundries in the 1960s. ''Artforum'' is published by Artforum Media, LLC, a subsidiary of Penske Media Corporation. John P. Irwin, Jr named the magazine after the ancient Roman word ''forum'' hoping to capture the similarity of the Roman marketplace to the art world's lively engagement with public debate and commercial exchange. The magazine features in-depth articles and reviews of contemporary art, as well as book reviews, columns on cinema and popular culture, personal essays, commissioned artworks and essays, a ...
