The theme of the LP is Italian racing driver Lorenzo Bandini’s death in a motor racing accident at the Grand Prix Automobile de Monaco in 1967. The article also discusses the visual dimension of the work; image materials were originally to have been presented with the recording to make Auto Jazz a multi-media experience. We tend to associate the late 1960s with revolutionary jazz, free jazz and experiments with jazz form and Auto Jazz: Tragic Destiny of Lorenzo Bandini is certainly ‘far out’. Jazz music at this time took on revolutionary tendencies both aurally and ideologically. However, it is not the politics of such countercultural acts that the recording expresses but rather (as a unique soundscape with elements of musique concrète) the emotional impact of a tragic real-life event through organized sound. The article examines the context for the LP: the development of ‘new wave’ cinema and use of jazz in this form, the concurrent revolution in modern jazz and contemporary experimental music and the form of ‘expanded cinema’ () that Auto Jazz: Tragic Destiny of Lorenzo Bandini was conceived to a contribution to.","PeriodicalId":326068,"journal":{"name":"Soundtrack, The","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132179407","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Rendell","doi":"10.1386/ts_00021_1","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1386/ts_00021_1","url":null,"abstract":"Addressing audiences’ enthrallment with film soundtracks that complicate existing notions of cinema immersion, this article offers the original concept of phenomenological fragmentation. To do so, the article considers soundtracks as mnemonic devices and affective textual components that shape audiences’ identities. Additionally, whilst multiplex viewing theatres and technologies endeavour to disembody audio media production and shroud crowds in darkness, the article explores alternative cinematic environments that support phenomenological fragmentation. This is then applied to concert movies as a particular form of event-based experiential cinema where screenings are accompanied with an orchestra that play the soundtrack live. The article then focuses on Jurassic Park ‘Live in Concert’ as a case study of this. Thirteen concert attendees were interviewed, evidencing myriad instances of phenomenological immersion and fragmentation that are shaped by autobiographical histories with the film and the novel exhibition context. Resultantly, the research provides the much-needed empirical audience data to film music studies and expands the study of experiential cinema.","PeriodicalId":326068,"journal":{"name":"Soundtrack, The","volume":"89 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131582493","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Lending his ears to cinema after the Second World War, Deleuze coins the term ‘sound-crystal’, but he neither sufficiently engages with it nor thinks about it beyond music. Turning to film sound scholarship or film philosophy is futile in a similar fashion. To address these gaps in Deleuze, film philosophy and sound in cinema, I listen carefully to a number of contemporary films and TV shows in which sound crystallization splits time in an indiscernibility of the perceived actual from the virtual sounds of recollections, dreams, hallucinations, fantasies and worlds. I argue that crystallization of sounds avoids an anthropocentric approach to understanding the relation between a sound and its source which cannot be claimed to ‘voice’ it.","PeriodicalId":326068,"journal":{"name":"Soundtrack, The","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115588096","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
{"title":"Reconfiguring authenticity: Eurythmics and the aesthetics of new pop","authors":"S. Hill","doi":"10.1386/ts_00019_1","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1386/ts_00019_1","url":null,"abstract":"This article looks at how the British pop culture of the 1980s changed the way authenticity was conceptualized in popular music. I will argue that ‘new pop’ and the televisual aesthetic of MTV challenged the division between British and American codes of authenticity. This distinction is marked by the use of the term rock in America, to describe popular music of generalizable importance, of which authenticity is the key talisman. By contrast, in the United Kingdom, pop is less of a pejorative term, and the preference for authentic modes of address is tempered by the playful sensibility of the carnivalesque. As a barometer of this, I will be focusing on the work of the British duo Eurythmics, whose creative output spanned the decade, and for whom MTV was pivotal in breaking the American market. In particular, I will suggest that the band’s propensity to bend genre as well as gender, positioned North American ‘rock’ as a contingent discourse: a free-floating signifier around which competing notions of authenticity coalesce. In this direction, the terms rock and pop can also be read against discourses linked to both sexuality and national identity. Indeed, the Britishness of Eurythmics and the camp sensibility of their music videos are central to how rock authenticity is re-positioned as a more plural construct. Emblematic of this paradox of authenticity is both the duality of Dave Stewart and Annie Lennox’s identity as Eurythmics and the diversity of their musical output. Encoded in this are some very specific strategies for listening that draw upon the legacy of British Art schools in the 1950s and the Independent Group. Revisiting this legacy is pivotal therefore in understanding how 1980s pop music culture reverberates in the twenty-first century. The pertinence of the work is underscored by the induction of Eurythmics into the US Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2022.","PeriodicalId":326068,"journal":{"name":"Soundtrack, The","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125015108","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
