    agreed! i just wish i could play river sounds for my music theory teachers.

  2. Euroflounder Says:

    Gregorian chants have no harmony, a good interpretation of a romantic piece has no concrete rhythm as the performer speeds up and slows down for emphasis, drone music has no melody. Most people would call all of these things music; just because this has none of them, it doesn’t mean it is not music (besides, one could argue that it has all three).

    this bitch can shut up already , she talks like a robot

  4. AddsOwn Says:

    duh.i hate artistic fags

  5. Mechanthrope Says:

    Music can have no melody, or no harmony or rhythm. Music is culturally defined. What makes Bach more musical than a river? Society’s definition. So really, music is any sound. Everything vibrates and creates sound, so everything is music.

  6. chiliberto Says:

    Ooooh. Maybe someday I’ll get an introduction like that….

  7. boogster123321 Says:

    where do you get records that have some of that stuff as music on it?

  8. boogster123321 Says:

    that woman is like a creepy robot, she freaks me out.

  9. gurra9 Says:

    If that’s your definition of “music” then sure. In my opinion, music is just sound (or lack of sound like 4’33 by John Cage) created for the purpose of being music

  10. jokeharmonica Says:

    lame!!!

  11. sisterenrodentia Says:

    my favorite part is the ‘rithm’!

  12. bytedildo Says:

    Music is melody, harmony and rithm combined. These are only sounds, but are interesting, so this IS artistic combination of different sounds that’s what it is.

  13. tofuCKYOU Says:

    what is it then ?
    don’t give that traditionalist narrowed minded speech about what is music and that it’s just possible to play it with string or percussion instruments because that’s a 19th century old obsolete thing to say. go and read Russolo’s Arte dei Rumori manifest… Things evolve, specially ART (music) !

  14. pjustusxi Says:

    She’s the host of Roulette TV. She’s also a pianist, for what it’s worth.

  15. bytedildo Says:

    this isn’t music…sorry

  16. rotor Says:

    This music describes well the state i’m in.

  17. ernesto1985 Says:

    great.

    but who on earth selected that freak woman to interview him!?

  18. spliffsly Says:

    battle style

  19. spliffsly Says:

    with a name like fibi rojet you know it.

  20. xootube Says:

    It’s Marclay not Markley. WTF?

  21. uburei Says:

    that blonde is a little freak

  22. NicleT Says:

    Sorry, my replies was posted below

  23. NicleT Says:

    (2) Also, even though his first release was in mid 80′, his way to invent the use of turntables and his original techniques, influenced a lot of artists… Yes, it’s an own hypothesis that Markley too was feed by Tetreault’ works, but why not? because the guy begun his career 10 years before? I don’t think so. Again, did you ever saw Tetreault on stage? In all respect, we are far away your “Beatles-Radiohead” or “Kilmister-Squire” comparison.

  24. NicleT Says:

    (1) Yes, I understand but if you insinuate that Tetreault’s work is more a “referential” and Markley more an “abstract” music, then you mist a lot of the work of Tetreault despite all your knowledge about him. From the begining T. was making very concrete music with turntables and still does. He then start to use more “referential” cuts especially with his work with other musicians. In fact, T. has a visual artist approach on sound and music. This was IMO the most important value of comparison.

  25. djhekla Says:

    yes, of course… hence the comment. tetreault’s turntable work seems to begin in 1986-87 or so, whereas marclay was already quite active by the late 70s in both music and art circles using solely turntables… but that’s besides the point; their respective aesthetics couldn’t be any more different despite the similarity of their tools… you wouldn’t watch a clip of mötörhead and say that lemmy was “so chris squire” – even through they both play a rickenbacker bass…
