Trained actors and singers were measured for peak and averaged SPLs at an on-axis distance of 1 m at three different subjective dynamic levels and also for two different vocal techniques (“back” and “mask” voices). The “back” […]

Emma Gritt writes: Toolroom Records celebrated a decade in the house music game this year. To mark the occasion, they embarked upon a 10-week tour, which included a special back to back Toolroom Records extravaganza at Ministry of Sound, the first time the original London superclub had ever allowed one brand to set up shop […]
MSW writes: Mike, Peter, Davy and Mickey were musicians prior to the formation of The Monkees. They didn’t play on first two albums (Mike was the only one who did and on his own compositions only) due to an arrangement Screen Gems did with Don Kirschner that put him in charge of all Monkees music.

Being with Wynton Marsalis is always an education. He’s happiest when he can enthuse about something, or learn something new from whoever he’s speaking to. Right now, sitting over lunch in a Japanese restaurant in New York, he’s off on the topic of jazz’s Anglo-Celtic roots. “Those folk songs and hymns the slaves […]
So, having to introduce austerity measures due to enforced salary cut and youth number 2 on its way, I think it’s about time I got round to selling my meagre vinyl collection. What I want to know is how does one go about assessing condition for listing on Discogs, t’bay, etc (even on here), especially […]

It has appeared in movies, […]
Known by an audience far wider than the average ‘classical music lover’ for his Bach discs, Glenn Gould assumed an iconic status during his life. Eccentric and opinionated, Gould abandoned concert-giving aged 31 to focus on studio recording Continues HERE
Stephen Pritchard writes: This is one of those rewarding recordings that makes you totally reassess music from the mainstream repertoire. Robin Michael’s gut-strung cello is softly sonorous, a perfect match for Daniel Tong’s masterly pianism on an 1897 Blüthner – said to have been played and chosen by Brahms on a visit to the Leipzig […]
Ben Walsh writes ….. She was bullied at high school, dumped by her boyfriend before the prom and ditched again just before moving from Toronto, her hometown, to Nashville last year. It’s no small wonder, then, that Lindi Ortega favours heartbreak material, although the eloquent country singer doesn’t appreciate being pigeon-holed. MORE
I’m not a great fan of Eric Clapton’s music anymore. When I was younger, in my early teens, I thought some of his stuff was pretty cool, especially the experimental Cream, with Ginger Baker and Jack Bruce, and the Derek & The Dominoes Sessions box set, with Duane Allman on guitar. Clapton’s other solo works, […]
NA writes: Strangely, one of Bowie’s most (in)famous alter-egos, had a very short shelf-life. He moved from the blue eyed soul of Young Americans – what he called “plastic soul” – in the tail end of 1974 through 1975, into the Duke in 1976 for Station to Station and his Isolar tour of the same […]

Masekela met Armstrong while studying at the Manhattan School of Music in New York in the early 60s, after leaving South Africa […]
“When the day finally came for a young John Lydon’s parents to take him home after a year spent lying in a large hospital ward, he had no idea who they were. The eight-year-old Lydon was recovering from meningitis, which resulted in periods of coma and memory loss so severe he was unable to recognise […]
