A Look into House Music House music was first and foremost, the direct descendant of "Disco". Many older and wiser Chicago, New York and New Jersey House dj's will agree with me on this. They will acknowledged that fact that it was due to New York's, huge Disco club and music scene that helped to create the music of House and Garage and its culture within Chicago, Usa. Frankie Knuckles, the acknowledged "godfather" of Chicago house, got his start as a Dj via Manhattan, New York, Usa. Whilst there
Compare & Contrast - House/Liquid DNB. House music and Drum & Bass music are two very different sounding genres, but also have a few similarities in terms of the production focus on drums and bass lines. Both genres are a type of electronic dance music, therefore will share a couple of similarities as well as having their very own unique styles and sounds. The two reference
John Cage took a simple approach to music. While Cage believed that music can merely be found anywhere and within any sound, traditionally, music remains described as the art of arranging tones or sounds in a way that produces a composition having unity and continuity (Merriam-Webster). John Cage had a Zen Buddhism philosophy of music, meaning music is everywhere and anything can be interpreted as such (House of Solitude). However, I believe music is only the intentional arrangement of sounds. John
The Benefits of School House Rock: Animated Educational Music Videos for Kids "As your body grows bigger, your mind must flower, it's great to learn, 'cause knowledge is power!" Any person in their twenties can tell you where this phrase comes from, and that is because every Saturday morning in between Saturday morning cartoons children would wait anxiously for a five minute break of School House Rock. Little did we know that while we were singing along to "Sufferin' Till Suffrage" we were
popularity of the “house” genre of music in France in the late 1990's. They've produced five studio albums as well as the soundtrack for the film “Tron: Legacy” and have had multiple number 1 hits and are still currently together. The band is well known for their odd and mysterious behavior and always appear in concert or photographs wearing their signature robot helmets. They also never speak and try their best to stay out of the public eye. This is done so that the focus is on their music and not on them
techno, Chicago house, and New York garage as the seeds of what's generally agreed-over there, at least-to be the most significant music since punk, and they're celebrating with a slew of historical studies. Simon Reynolds attempts to bridge the gap with "Generation Ecstasy," an exhaustive compendium of almost every rave-associated sound and idea, both half-baked and momentous, that traces the digital Diaspora back and forth across Europe and America. Using the multiple perspectives of music critic, enthusiastic
It took roughly twenty seconds to walk from the house across the street, two to unlock the door, and another eight to turn the lights on and walk to my parent’s bedroom in our microscopic home. Therefore, we know it takes about thirty seconds for your whole life to change; to see things that cannot be unseen and to learn things that take years of waking up in cold sweats before finding any relief. No, this is not a story of my repeated childhood trauma nor of the damage it dealt - my biggest lesson
creative house that reminded me of my childhood dreams. This house full of vibrant colors, new electronics and massive furniture will be so comfortable you’ll never want to leave. My future house will Have giant couches that will make you feel as if you were a baby cub lying next to your momma. When I’d sit on the couches I would slowly begin to melt. Even though the sofa will be really comfortable the beds will be even better, for example my king sized bed
Rave Music is quite interesting. It has been around for decades. Some enjoy it, some don’t. There is some conflict as to where Rave Music actually started. Some people, non-ravers most likely, ask what is Rave Music? Rave Music is made up of technologically advanced beats that are mixed with other beats to form music. Rave Music has a culture of its own, as so does any other music type. The history of Rave Music is hard to sum up, but here it goes... The controversy in “Who started Rave Music, U
The Queen’s House was built from 1616-1619 as an adjunct to the Tudor Palace of Greenwich. The house was built for the queen of King James I of England, Anne of Denmark. Anne died in 1919. The house was then given to Queen Henrietta Maria by her husband King Charles I in 1629. The architect was Inigo Jones who later changed and finished the House for Queen Henrietta Maria in 1635. John Webb added two side elevations in order to fill in the “H.” Between 1986 and 1999 the Queens House was later restored
it’s only a dream we’d hope would come true. Some may picture this ideal home to be a huge two or three-story house with lots of land, a pool, and a two-car garage. As for others, maybe something spacious enough for the family yet convenient and beautiful. As we imagine living in these ideal homes it seems to be the perfect fit, in a safe location, peaceful, and comfy. In the story House on Mango Street written by Sandra Cisneros, I’m almost sure that young Esperenza gained a beautiful imagine of
This storyboard features frames taken from the 1985 film My Life as a Dog, directed by Lasse Hallström. I chose this sequence because I felt that it encapsulated much of the film’s complex story, as well as its themes of isolation and lonesomeness, into a short yet conscience passage spanning a variety of temporal and spatial locations. The film’s main character is featured at both his lowest and highest points during these few short minutes, and his personal reflection and recollection results in
The living conditions in Lower Manhattan New York in 1905 were constantly fluctuating. Most immigrants lived in tenements; either a small house of three or four floors or a larger building that had five or six floors (“Life in the Tenements”). In this time period, rent was a major expense for most immigrants resulting in a fluctuation in living situations; furthermore, tenements in this area of the city were in close proximity to factories, docks, slaughterhouses, and power stations which many of
floor. Living in a house the view is nice and it’s right there because you can just step outside whenever you want. You can decorate it and if your house is big enough you can have a get together or a party. When u step outside or look out your window you see all these beautiful houses and the pretty flowers that my mom planted. It’s kind of hard to explain the feeling when I stepped into this house; it was like stepping into a mansion. I was so happy and I enjoyed the house because it was such
Deir El Medina Describe the village of Deir El Medina. The village of Deir El Medina grew from the time of the 18th Dynasty to the 20th. By its final stage approximately 70 houses stood within the village walls and 50 outside. Perhaps 600 people lived here by then.

His father, William Cary Wright studied music and law and also entered politics at one point. His mother Anna Lloyd Wright, was a teacher. His family moved around a lot from Massachusetts to Iowa and then later settled in Madison, Wisconsin. At twelve years old, Frank Lloyd Wright took a summer
The History and Context of Club Culture "History is hard to know because of all the hired bullshit, but even without being sure of history it seems entirely reasonable that every now and then the energy of a whole generation comes to a head in a long fine flash, for reasons that nobody really understands at the time, and which never explain, in retrospect, what really happened" (Hunter.S.Thompson, "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas") The late 1980's saw the emergence of a hugely
The Analysis of the Port Sunlight In the context of the Victorian era, in which it was conceived, the creation of Port Sunlight Village by William Hesketh Lever was unparalleled. The tumultuous changes wreaked by the Industrial Revolution still had not been fully embraced even as late as the early twentieth century. The combination of a content, healthy and efficient workforce was a vision held by some philosophers and luminaries of the time but Lever was one of the first entrepreneurs
it isn't as simple as it would first appear. You could just say the public will buy a house and the more public there is there is more demand for the good. This in turn would allow housing companies to charge larger prices and so only the rich can afford it. The problem is that people don't have to buy a house they can rent one or share one. As well as these factors they can take out a loan to buy the house and pay it back over a period of time. Loan companies charge interest and when interest
bomb ever dropped on a city. It speaks about how even if you did survive the blast you were so badly injured that you would die soon anyway. It talked about an incident where someone's eye was melting and was oozing down his face. It speaks about how houses were lifted of there foundation. After all the research about the bomb was made, they reported that 78,150 people had been killed, 13,983 were missing, and 37,425 had been injured. Even before the bomb, the citizens of Hiroshima were waken almost
