The show’s theme isn’t just a catchy meme: admission is only $5. It’s rare to find hip-hop and any form of electronic music on the same bill these days. The two genres have a long history of sharing DNA back to the pollination of rap and electro in the early ’80s when Afrika Bambaataa took Kraftwerk’s “Trans Europe Express” to “Planet Rock. ” When drum ‘n’ bass first rose from the primordial ooze of acid house in the early ’90s it was considered a strictly “urban” music created by predominantly black DJs with many old-school hip-hop samples and getting played on underground pirate radio stations in the UK’s largest cities. It’s never had that kind of street cred in the U.
Fuddle at Sakia’s first electronic fest
Daily News Egypt Egypt
As the independent music scene attempts to reinvent itself and seek diversity such an initiative should?ve been a laudable step to create a different music platform. Alas what was designed to be a music mini-fair to introduce new talent turned out to be a meek show of already established musicians who played solo or with a band along with popular disc jockeys. The first day of the festival included performances by Wael Alaa with vocalist Aya Mustafa and DJ Haze accompanied with bands BIKYA and Digital Counter. Fathy Salama Mahmoud Refaat Hassan Khan Machine Eat Man and DJ Feedo took center stage on day two.

The band is of no relation to the United States Postal Service. The Postal Service has glitchy bloops and beeps but they are not the first group to feature such daring space-age instrumentation. The man known as the father of electronic music is Edgard Var? a French composer whose work “Poeme ?ctronique” composed for the 1958 World’s Fair in Brussels was his second piece for tape and like contemporaneous works by John Cage and Terry Riley is still shocking in its willingness toward the experimental and the strange. The 60s were the decade in which electronic music came to the forefront especially through the Moog synthesizer created by the American Robert Moog whose name and synthesizer rhyme with the word “rogue. Dick Hyman previously best-known for being an accomplished whistler had some success with “Moog: The Electric Eclectics of Dick Hyman” “The Man from.

Music review: Bruce Springsteen & Franz Ferdinand
The Collegian CA
Majestic it seems is easy to aspire to but more difficult to achieve. Nowhere is this more obvious than on the ?Kingdom of Days? a love song with wonderfully tender lyrics that alone evoke affection and appreciation. Placed in the context of the music however the lyrics cannot hold up the dead weight of the stiff leaden instrumentation and arrangement. But it?s when Springsteen tries something unusual that ?Working on a Dream? becomes worthwhile. verall then ?Working on a Dream? is not only a worthy album but also an enjoyable one. Franz Ferdinand have discovered a newfound joy for keyboards electric pianos and dirty lo-fi synths.

MUSIC REVIEW: Franz Ferdinand gets experimental on new album
USD Volante nline SD
Franz Ferdinand creates some very interesting and unique sounds especially with their percussion. n songs such as “Send Him Away” and “Twilight mens” there is a very dry steel drum sound that feeds into their Jamaican reggae influence. The different percussion sounds really add to the album and give it something more than your average electronic sound. “Bite Hard” is a great song that starts out with just piano and vocals then moves into a steady drum that turns into a sing-along on acid. The weird keyboard sound on “Bite Hard” is unexpected but it makes the track completely fun. “What She Came For” is a trace-like song that Kapranos sings like he’s challenging the listener. While that usually comes off as cheesy Kapranos pulled it off and it definitely works in this track.
