CAUGHT LIVE -- Liam Finn & Eliza-Jane @ The Majestic 10/4/09

Out 12 2009, 4h07 por heyadamo

Sun 4 Oct – Liam Finn & Eliza-Jane Barnes

This performance was an anomaly in quite a few ways. For one, it was held the same day as Madison's annual marijuana legalisation rally. For another, it was a break in Liam and Eliza Jane's regular schedule, which consists of warming up for Wilco. Whereas the duo would probably get 30-45 minutes tops in their supporting role, here as headliners they had all the time they needed. Although the crowd of 40-50 people was sparse, Liam & Eliza-Jane treated them to a freewheeling, good-natured 90 minutes of upbeat pop-rock.

The duo are supporting the recently released Champagne & Seashells and so began proceedings with the first two songs of that. The rest of the set alternated between the EP and Liam's solo debut I'll Be Lightning with a few surprises here and there. Although Liam's known by some as Neil Finn's dad or Tim Finn's nephew, his stage approach differed slightly from his elder relatives manning Crowded House and Split Enz. The billing of the duo was completely accurate: there was no opening act, and the two handled all the vocals and instrumental duties. In order to do this, the two leaned heavily on a bank of pedals, effects and machines, almost like a electronica act. Eliza-Jane stood in front of a bevy of percussion tools, as well as a box that triggered sound loops, and provided vocal assistance. Meanwhile, Liam sang and played guitar, and technology intervened when he felt a song needed a little extra oomph towards the end. He would play a main guitar line, loop it, discard his guitar and rush to the nearby drum kit. Liam used this looping technique quite often, which sometimes led to a song's conclusion sounding like a My Bloody Valentine jam session. That same desire for cacophony extended to the drumkit; his family's musical legacy allowed him access to more than a few great drummers, but the drummer he seems to emulate the most is Animal off the Muppet Show.

With the two seemingly bent on filling the Theatre with tons of sound, some of the nuances of the album material were lost. But any loss of texture was replaced by the duo's affable stage banter and devil-may-care set list (there wasn't one made in advance, as Liam admitted) It was easy to tell the two are used to playing together, and seemed overjoyed to be on stage as headliners. The two joked about the legalisation festival, as well as learning about the previous night's harvest moon from PBS presenter Jack Horkheimer. (This led to one of the surprises of the night, which was a lovely spare version of Neil Young's Harvest Moon.) Towards the end, Liam invited audience members he met from the festival on-stage, and played an extended instrumental jam where one played his bongos and the other freestyled. (The bongo player even stuck around to add to Lead Balloon.) All in all, Liam and Eliza-Jane entertained the crowd, made a ruckus, and got to experience Wisconsin's state capital for the first time -- and perhaps not the last.

Статистика, часть 6: поп // Stats, part 6: pop

Ago 21 2009, 13h48 por -273C

Сегодня - обзор статистики тега pop.
Today is pop's statistics overview.

предыдущие посты / previous entries
mainstream
russian rock
progressive rock
black metal
jazz

Сначала наше традиционное упорядочение по количеству прослушиваний и слушателей.

First of all, our traditional arrangement with respect to number of plays and number of listeners.

Pic. 1 - full size

Pic. 2 - full size

Здесь - никаких сюрпризов, лидируют всем известные персонажи: Britney Spears, Madonna, Michael Jackson. Слушают мэйнстримный поп довольно бодро: миллионы слушателей, десятки миллионов прослушиваний.

There's no surprise here, well-known persons Britney Spears, Madonna and Michael Jackson are the leaders. The mainstream pop is rather popular: millions of listeners, dozens of millions of plays.

Pic. 3

А вот из этого графика видно, что четверка лидеров довольно сильно отрывается от основной массы. Любопытно.
Далее - график удельного числа прослушиваний для поп-исполнителей.

From the last plot we can see, that the four leaders are rather far from the main massive of artists. Interesting.
The next one is the chart of specific number of scrobbles for pop artists.

Pic. 4 - full size

А вот здесь забавно. Лидирует поп-панк группа McFly с удельным числом прослушиваний 48.5, при среднем значении 18. На втором месте опять Britney Spears с 44 песнями на слушателя.

And here the things go funny. Pop-punk band McFly leads the chart with specific number of scrobbles 48.5, when the average value is 18. Britney Spears with 44 plays per listener takes the second place.

Pic. 5

Несколько необычно выглядит гистограмма распределения по удельному числу прослушиваний: плато вблизи среднего значения резко обрывается как с той, так и с другой стороны.

The distribution through specific number of scrobbles looks a bit surprising: a plateau near the average breaks toughly from both sides.

Pic. 6

Сам по себе график зависимости активности в рупоре от числа слушателей ничего особо интересного из себя не представляет. Интересно то, что в рупоре поп-исполнителей содержится поистине огромное число сообщений. Особенно отличилась Britney Spears.

The graph of shoutbox activity to number of listeners is nothing interesting itself. The really interesting thing is a terribly high number of messages in pop artists' shoutboxes. Britney Spears is especially notable.

Pic.7

А вот здесь я вновь вижу подтверждение того, что только исполнители с удельным числом прослушиваний выше среднего могут иметь много сообщений в рупоре. Этот эффект наблюдался уже в трех довольно разных жанрах.

And here I see the effect of "potential barrier" again: only artists with more-than-average number plays per listener can have a lot of shouts. I've already seen the effect for three rather different genres.

P.S. Суммарное число прослушиваний в pop-top-100 - больше миллиарда.
The total playcount in pop-top-100 is a bit more, than one billion.

P.P.S. Спасибо Hzlqgmnzhh за полезный скрипт.
Thanks to Hzlqgmnzhh for his script.

Black Eyed Peas is like Pepsi

Jul 22 2009, 15h23 por shirster

I can drink Coke everyday and not feel bored.

I can listen to Collective Soul, Air, Air Supply, Bob Marley, Bon Jovi, Boyz II Men, Crowded House, David Gilmour, Depeche Mode, Dido, Eminem, Enya, Erasure, Eric Clapton, Michael Jackson, Oasis, Phil Collins, Pink Floyd, Roger Waters, THE STREET BEATS, X JAPAN all day everyday and not feel bored.

But Black Eyed Peas is like Pepsi. At first, it feels different, feels good. But after just a short while, it becomes really boring. So boring that I cannot stand it anymore.

Check out the full list here: http://www.abc.net.au/triplej/hottest100_alltime/countdown/cd_01.htm

Nirvana's Smells Like Teen Spirit came in at number one off course but I don't think I really have to listen to it again. I do thank Nirvana for changing the music landscape forever with two of my faves in this, my edited version of the hottest 100 of all-time. I just love Jeff Buckley more and can listen to Grace album forever so he's my number one song of all time.

You can find Sarah Blasko's Top Ten for Triple J's Hottest 100 of All Time on the same website but I've cut and pasted it here and it goes like this:

Her 1. Talking Heads - Naive Melody (This Must Be the Place)
The most romantic song ever written.
Her 2. Bjork - All Is Full Of Love
The sentiment makes me cry and feel strong at the same time.
Her 3. Radiohead - Pyramid Song
This song does something wonderful to my head. It makes me feel lightheaded.
Her 4. Kate Bush - Cloudbusting
Boy, what an uplifting song! It makes me want to box the air.
Her 5. The Beatles - Elenor Rigby
I remember loving this song even as a child. It conjured such a wonderful tale of mystery in my head. The strings and the way they're recorded make me want to die. It's like they're in your room. And the harmonies!
Her 6. Tom Waits - The Piano Has Been Drinking
He has many wonderful songs, but this song is one of my favourites. So clever and funny. I love his warped jazz.
Her 7. Kermit the Frog - Rainbow Connection
I just love this first scene of the Muppet Movie where it settles on Kermit singing this song after an aerial shot. It's so unbelievably cute and heartwarming.
Her 8. The Smiths - I Know It's Over
So many good songs, but this is one of my favourites. The way the song builds is incredible. Such a wonderful voice.
Her 9. Michael Jackson - Billie Jean
I will never get tired of this song. I just have to hear a hint of that beat and I feel compelled to dance.
Her 10. Joanna Newsom - Sadie
I think she's an incredible, intricate writer. This song gets me every time.

Sarah Blasko's new album came out today and I've listened to it a couple of times and love it so far. If you didn't know It's called As Day Follows Night. Have a listen you'll love it, hopefully if not, here are two more long and boring lists of songs on last.fm again.
