SAVE BEATS IN SPACE AS A TWO HOUR SLOT!!
SIGN THE NYU PETITION! UP ROMERO!!!!
Think you're too smart for this class? Want to place out of this course right now?
We're not done the exam yet, so just memorize chapter one of Genesis (in Hebrew), John (in Greek) and the Silmarillion (in English) so that you could recite that without looking at anything or being prompted.
Guess we'll all be taking the class. Its fun anyway so stop whining.
CLASSES ONE AND TWO
MY SWEET LORD (alterntaive spelling is permitted by permisison of the instructor JAJJJAJAJ)
CLASS TITLE: ? TITLE IS, JUST SING WHAT ARTHUR PLAYS, OK I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE TITLE IS, WHAT ABOUT WHOSE SET HAS YOUR GROOVE BEEN UNDER?
If u trip on jelly, and you sing the blooz,(hint:booscemi which is italian for fantasma cray cray)
you might just get hassled by this hater crew.
There aint no commission, it aint got no fees.
it's free to listen to the woebegone wail and wheeze.(refrain)
The cell died due to the bootleg cables (not coronavirus, though the cables were from mcdodo company china)
so there is no audio mashup recording right now but you know the jelly soundtrack right.We need to do a lecture here where we explain about how the israeli god always compares faithfulness to him like a romantic relationship, so Melkor's transgression would be like playing music with your own djc or whatever.
this mashup has not been made yet.
Also, the evolution from many gods to one god in the global religious psyche is like (the evolution of the concept of Satanas from opposing people to opposing God and) in the global sociological psyche from having many wives (which is still ok for some cultures) to just one.
it probably reflects a more precise understanding of something. What? not sure.
time is tending toward eternity like some kind of numerical sequence and we are somehow involved in that.
does a musical measurement of time reflect this? It should, if the theory is correct.
what you will learn: musical terminology.
The chapters are technical so we'll just take half a chapter a week.
Ade Kassim's playlist is a discussion of technical musical notions.
ADE KASSIM MATERIALS BROADCAST 12 2 on 6 JANUARY might be a good show for Chapter one for those who are somewhat familiar with the subject matter of frequency, melody etc.
For music for the second class, listen to PACO PENYA MISA FLAMENCA.
We're on a religious roll which may roll off the road but we'll see where it goes.
Please also note if in NYC you could attend the jazz fest where Marsalis will be because he's big on education.
which kind of goes with our theme.
And on Monday you can catch Peter Zuma somewhere not sure where.
Just tune in to nassau avenue broadcasts, this week you'll understand a little more if you are studying at ALL.
FOR EXAMPLE this week there was a mess of different music all the time.
test yourself, see if you can pick out instruments or keys or tempos.
Then Thursday night to Friday, Listen to the cabana trax from January 9 Comedy hour to hear computer game soundtracks from the 1990 era, and Brian chase to hear that the angels are at least 13 million yars old. Though they are probably much older if they do in fact exist.
Cedric Bardiwell and Peter Zuma's broadcast trombone too about dance tracks and improv and Arthur Russell who was a big musician in bk and the full moon and "singing what I play".
See, they're teaching the class for us.
Pieter Orlov threw in some Jazz too courtesy of Love Injection on saturday morning.
NOTE TO ONLINE STUDENTS: If you are accessing these materials online, most of this material mentioned above is from local artists so just tune in to THE LOT RADIO BROOKLYN to reference the bulk of these shows and artists and then they tell you where you can see them live.
THE LOT RADIO is also a not profit artistic organization.
As we see the weekend was stuffed with scholastic colonna sonora material including but MOS DEF NOT LIMITADO A Soul Willie, blue fisted baby and LA CHICA's a political heal the planet manifesto.
And mike simonettis obscure gemz and Frostian woodland poetry fest and somebody else was quoting frost earlier in the week too in the morning I think while dressed as a mexican bishop.
See Reggae Article in NYT this weekend about Bullwack.
Or tune into positive reality.JUST to name a few.
WEEK TWO: TUNE IN, then Test yourself: explain "jingle bells" according to the cadence idea.
What does it mean to say that a "solo flute wave" is simpler than a "violin section wave"?
Have you been tuning in?
Have you been listening to Druggy Paul, Adrian rew, camrun and Sean, Alejandra and Alfonzo, Manono complete with vocal!!, Dog bites girl, grand street sounds, timo Ellis, kristin barilli, MOMA READY, etcetera?
Ah the sounds of Nassau avenue...DURING THE SECOND HOUR WE PLAY SOME MARSALIS, he's in NYC on the 10th and 11th for some kind of jazz battle.
THE ABYSSINIAN MASS: GOD'S TROMBONES.
That is just too apropos of the Gabriel thing would it be like overkill to just play the whole mass for the second broadcast or is it just too religious?
THIS IS FROM CHAPTER TWO OF THE TEXTBOOK.
HORNS ARE GOOD AS A BEGINNING BECAUSE GABRIEL"S BATTLE HORN AND THAT.
TALK ABOUT MARSALIS AND HOW HE SAID WE SHOULD LEARN TO LISTEN AND WE SHOULDNT USE WORDS LIKE NIGGA AND HOE BECAUSE ITS LIKE ROBERT E LEE.
HE DOES HOWEVER LIKE CHILDISH GAMBINO.

PLAYLIST
WELCOME TO "ITS TIME" BY IN IT TO SPIN IT:
EPIC MUSICAL BATTLES WITH YOUR HOST DJ MILK DUD
I DO NOT OWN THESE TRACKS, I GOT ALL OF THEM OFF YOUTUBE AND THEY ARE NOT ON MY PHONE BECAUSE I DIDN'T DOWNLOAD ANY OF THEM, AND I DON'T KNOW HOW TO USE DJ APPARATUS OF ANY TYPE.
PLAYLIST OF ALL 24 TRACKS INCLUDING SIX EDUCATIONAL COMMENTARIE, WILL LAST ABOUT ONE AND ONE HALF HOURS
V/0 NUMBER ONE:
GOOD MORNING BROOKLYN
I. Good day my name is DJ MILK DUD and you're tuned into IN IT TO SPIN IT, EPIC MUSICAL BATTLES brought to you by ENGELBLAU COLLEGE.
II.This broadcast is presented in keeping with MUSICAL EDUCATION which is the mission of ENGELBLAU COLLEGE.
III.In this broadcast we will examine the phenomenology of the spirit in music by looking at a regular music textbook used by Brooklyn community college alongside the thesis proposed by popular English fantasy author JRR TOLKIEN.
If we miss anything just go to engelblau.com and look for music in the course catalogue.
It's still a bit messy however.
We are looking at musical battles to see if they might have a spiritual dimension.
We are familiar with musical battles such as STEP UP which is about dance battles.
We also know about Rap battles.
There is also a branch of music dealing with psychology which is like a battle inside yourself.
But is it possible that musical battles could also involve a supernatural dimension?
We'll start out on familiar ground with THE GAME from STICK IT.
Stick it is the story of a gymnast who got sick of the hassles with her family and the judgmental world of sports competitions, dropped out of school and joined a skater crew
When the crew got arrested for trespassing on a construction site, Haley was sent to juvenile court and ultimately to a gymnastics academy where the coach forced her to compete in the environment she detested.
The movie uses THE GAME which compares basketball games to rap battles, to highlight Haley's battle with the system.
FROM BRING IT ON FIGHT TO THE FINISH cant find that video, so using vevo,
The song Just dance is featured in another movie about battling the system, this time, two cheerleaders face off over a guy, one, his snotty sister and the other his potential girlfriend from the "ghetto".
As with "the game", a potentially violent battle is turned into a musical one.
"No physical contact".
TYLER V ANDIE3 MINUTES
ANDIE"S BATTLE SPEECH ABOUT THE STREETS AT THE END OF STEP UP TWO IS SO ON POINT, ITS JUST LIKE THE "COME ON LLOYDSKI: THEME.
IRL tuck probably would have killed chase, he woulnd have left him alive.
like in Step up One where they killed skinny.
Did anyone die in Save the last dance?
Plus chases brother woudl probably not have readmitted andie just based on moose imitating Michael Jackson in the rain..
But if they put that in there, they couldnt show it in theatres except for the R for REAL.
IS that what the R stands for?
We could also throw in Andie's audition in that case and/or the "I can't dance" street number from the MOOSE COLLEGE scene.
We have to be careful though to STAY ON POINT.we can't weave the entire universe into this.
V/O 2 IS ANGEL BY SHAGGY
The intro where Shaggy mumbles, is Melkor razzing god about his deal
Melkor youre my angel, you're my darlin angel
I wrote you a piece, will u play it for me? baby
Surely u my angel, u my darling angel
Sing me a song in a happy key,
Im not in favor of this division
It does not correspond to my vision
You always talking all about your fine rebellion
Dont be a fool son what about the long run
Its a shame the way you causing all this tension!
Imma have to lock u down in the detention
I dont' like to talk incarceration
but you're causing lamentation Across all the nations
Youre a prince and thats how you should be treated
Thats why I give you everything you needed
Now you hurt me, now my heart is bleeding, begging and pleading why are you leaving
MELKOR ANSWERS: I was never really into all ya program, I be thinking paradiso is a big scam
I been on my own for so long, Imma sing my own song, I could never be wrong
REFRAIN
BRIDGE
U always criticize my behavior,/ u not my savior and I dont like it up above,
u can lecture me forever I will never surrender/and I don't need your sappy LOOOOOOVVEEE
V/O 3: ITS TIME BY IMAGINE DRAGONS
Lyrics
VERSE ONE
The hobbit money's spent/ right down to the last cent/
and now its time to build from the big old bad abyss right to the top/
don't hold back
should I pack my bags or will you be writing me a paycheck
I dont ever want to let you down/
But a teacher can't afford this town
And after all, the palantir keeps me up at night
REFRAIN
It's time to begin listening/
the plots a little bit thicker you can picture it
Im hoping everyone does so we can understand/
that God is just a music man
VERSE TWO
This tale is meant to tell, just put it on the shelves
It's filled with angels demons hobbits dwarves and elves you wont stop/
front to back
Im wearing rags cuz riches means I need another paycheck
And I hope you don't let me down/
cause I never want to leave this town
but after all/
the prices keep me up at night
REFRAIN
My wallet never felt so lonely/
My manuscript burns so slowly to ashes, to ashes
VOICE OVER NUMBER FOUR: SECOND EXPLANATION
SAVE THE LAST DANCE which is the root of Step up Andie, Bring it on Catalina and Stick it (though Haley did not have a bf that caused conflict, she was like Andie but she never shipped with a tuck or a chase)
Note the final scene in Save the last dance, with the chair, SO similar to ANdie's audition with Shawty is a killa, even the way she uses the chair.
Tolkien believed that faerie was all in a calderon, and as we see, the SARAH DEREK thread branched out
Yes its industry self promotion but the battle is important to our study rn.
IV. In his book THE SILMARILLION, Tolkien proposed that the physical universe was created by musical angels
V. making music according to a theme proposed by God; further, VI.that some of these angels disagreed with the music God proposed,
VII and created dissonance which translated into suffering, woe and grief for all created races,
VIII. God however did not destroy the dissonance.
IX He declared that the dissonance would not hinder his theme but ultimately would be woven into the theme for a greater harmony.
Then we have a mashup of ANGEL by Shaggy and rayvon. In the original, the angel is a faithful girlfriend who sticks by Shaggy through jail time and cheating.
In the Mashup, The devil and God are having an argument, in which Satan rejects God's offer of love nad harmony and sneers that he wants to "do his own thing."
Finally, in ITS TIME we see JRR Tolkien presenting his script of this drama, which he called the Silmarillion, to the publishers and asking for a cash advance.
TRACK TEN:DEVIL WENT BACK TO GEORGIA BY THE CHARLIE DANIELS
TRACK ELEVEN FAWKES V GUEVARA.
VOICEOVER FIVE IS EXPlANATION THREE.
OK THATS IT WE CAN"T HAVE ANY MORE WE RAN OUT OF TIME.
.
Finally, in The Devil Went down to Georgia, the scenario becomes totally spiritual: Johnny will lose his soul if he loses the fiddle battle with Satan.
THE DEVEL WENT BACK TO GEORGIA JAJAJJAJAJAJAJ HE'S BEEN PRACTICINGit's like Herod.
Seriously.
This is kind of hilarious.
SECOND HALF HOUR: THE GUY FAWKES LEGEND
Talk about Guy fawkes V FOR VENDETTA ANONYMOUS OCCUPY WALl STREET and the whole DEXYS thing, the whole religious political thing, rebels,unions, etc. as relates to Tolkiens family and their religious skirmish.
vOICE OVER 6 IS EXPLANATION 4 TWO MINUTE LIMITE.
GENESIS JOHN AND THE SILMARILLION (I STILL CANT FIND THE SILMARILLION AUDIO ON YOUTUBE)
where he describes Jesus not as the MUSIC OF GOD which made the PHENOMENA, but as the WORD OF GOD THROUGH WHOM ALL THINGS WERE MADE.
There is no mention of angels being there playing music.
However, the idea that the thought of God which john calls LOGOS existed before the created world, Tolkien turns this thought into "the ainur".
John calls JEsus Light, whereas for Tolkien, the light came after the music.
But clearly there are parallelsWhy this progression from Aramaic to Greek to English?
It could be thought of as a chord like progression up a scale.
Religion is not transmitted through books so much as through organic culture.
This is why the Guadalupe or Amazone or Voodoo or Rasta culture freaks out the Vatican
Here in the United States we are heirs to an English form of Christianity which spun it considerably for obvious political and economic reasons,and now portrays it in a somewhat "white light".
No pun intended.
ANd if you believe that there's some beachfront property in Antarctica that is going to be golf course ready in a couple of years.
Anyways, The Christian religions was originally not Anglo Saxon at all, but based in a culture of wandering jews from Syria or iran who settled dangerously near the Mediterranean culture of greece/Rome.
The Romans were trying to imitate the dilettante Greeks in everything except being dilettants (right?) and the last thing they wanted was some wacko cult of weirdos messing it all up with mysticism.
after all hadn't the Greeks fought a long hard culture war to bring "wisdom" to the people?
The Brits had to spin it backwards..to justify the King as the true and correct prophet, in stead of the pope....the tribes of the north were now the wise and wealthy ones and the Guidos were a bunch of fire crazed terrorists.
VOICE OVER 8 IS EXPLANATION 6 TWO MINUTE LIMITE:
The importance of the religious wars of England can't really be overstated in terms of this thread.
Not only would Tolkien's family not have had their own microwar over this issue, but the entire continent of North America would potentially have been Catholic, and all subsequent wars including the one in which tolkien fought would not have played out as they did if indeed they had been fought at all (cf Fatima, but that's a matter of faith).
So let's go back and look at the context of thvb e overture of 1812 in more detail and SURPRISE its not about the war of 1812.
It's about the Russians bashing Napoleon because they were more ready for the cold.
This could have been the inspiration for the scene in LOTR on the snowy mountain, but let's leave that aside--
POSSIBLE NEXT SHOW "ROMERO RADIO".
Need to check into the serafin singers.
Would romero not grin widely?
for the time being just listen to world instruments,
