Lazarus 0 Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 (edited) Danger Mouse? The best name he could think of was fucking Danger Mouse??? http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/8053471.stm Hip-hop producer Danger Mouse is to release a blank CD, after record label EMI reportedly cancelled his new album. Dark Night Of The Soul, a collaboration with rock group Sparklehorse, also features Iggy Pop and The Flaming Lips, along with artwork by David Lynch. It has already been streamed online, but Billboard magazine said a "legal dispute" with EMI derailed the project. Danger Mouse, who is half of pop group Gnarls Barkley, said he hoped people would still get to hear the record. A spokesperson for the producer said: "Danger Mouse remains hugely proud of Dark Night of the Soul and hopes that people lucky enough to hear the music, by whatever means, are as excited by it as he is." He added that the album, which comes with a limited edition, "100+ page book" of David Lynch photographs inspired by the music "will now come with a blank, recordable CD-R". "All copies will be clearly labelled: 'For Legal Reasons, enclosed CD-R contains no music. Use it as you will.'" Nina Persson Nina Persson of The Cardigans and A Camp is amongst the guest stars It is unclear at this stage whether the record has been postponed or scrapped altogether. EMI could not be reached for comment. 'Excited' At the time of writing, the entire 13-track album can be heard on the website of US public radio station NPR. The free, legal stream has been the site's most popular page for more than 24 hours - but it is unclear how long the audio will remain available. "We don't have a definite take down date," NPR Music producer Robin Hilton told Billboard. "It's up in the air." Other guest stars on the record include The Strokes' Julian Casablancas, The Pixies' Frank Black, Super Furry Animals frontman Gruff Rhys, and Nina Persson of The Cardigans. Danger Mouse first came to attention with a bootleg CD that mixed a capella tracks from Jay-Z's Black Album with music from The Beatles' White Album. He has since gone on to produce cartoon band Gorillaz and alt-rock icon Beck. Edited May 16, 2009 by Lazarus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Dynamite 6092 Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 4′33″ (pronounced Four minutes, thirty-three seconds or, as the composer himself referred to it, Four, thirty-three[1]) is a three-movement composition[2][3] by American avant-garde composer John Cage (1912–1992). It was composed in 1952 for any instrument (or combination of instruments), and the score instructs the performer not to play the instrument during the entire duration of the piece throughout the 3 movements (The first 30 seconds, the second 2 minutes and 23 seconds and the third 1 minute and 40 seconds). Although commonly perceived as "four minutes thirty-three seconds of silence",[4][5] the piece actually consists of the sounds of the environment that the listeners hear while it is performed.[6] Over the years, 4′33″ became Cage's most famous and most controversial composition.[2] 4'33″ has been recorded on several occasions: Frank Zappa recorded it as part of A Chance Operation: The John Cage Tribute, on the Koch label, 1993; in 2002, James Tenney performed 4'33" at Rudolf Schindler's historic Kings Road House in celebration of the work's 50th anniversary.[24] A recording of an orchestral version of 4'33″ by the BBC Symphony Orchestra was broadcast on BBC Radio 3 in January 2004; this performance may have been simultaneously televised on BBC Four; it was made available on iFilm in 2006.

Andrew 4278 Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 Different if youre a hom. Silence is silence well no, since if you put a CD of cages "composition£ in your CD player it would play 4 minutes and 33 seconds of recorded silence before stopping but ptuting DMs in your cd player would simply not work also you could make DMs into a data cd put pictures or whatever on it from your pc while cages would just come up in itunes or whatever as 4:33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
