|
"The Catastrophist" (Thrill Jockey) The Chicago instrumental band Tortoise put out its first single, "Lonesome Sound," in 1993, six years before Napster and a decade before the iTunes store, back when you couldn't get instant vest-pocket aural references about any music under the sun.

|
Considered in terms of today's omnipresent branding, "John & Yoko," the vocal performance, co-opts "John & Yoko," the celebrity-tag-as-brand cooked up by the mass media as soon as the couple became headliners, and "John & Yoko," the recording, becomes the ultimate aural selfie.

Which might make a nice cut in a glossy Apple ad for the gizmo — suggesting a feeling of closeness to the music, such that you can't help but cup; a suggestive visual metaphor for the aural intimacy Apple surely wants its technology to communicate.
|

In the work that I do, I can pull out a whole load of solar data, maybe a solar flare, and you hear this kind of roaring lion, which is "really" an explosion, so it makes sense to mutate it into an aural thing.

No one comes out of the womb sporting a Bolt Thrower shirt; mainstream metal bands like the ones mentioned here act as gateways to further aural annihilation, and it's crucial that we funnel those new sets of ears toward bands who deserve their patronage.
|
|
Submerged, jazzy chords coil and roil around see-sawing puffs of bass, James' vocal is given the choppy microhouse treatment, and the whole thing's wrapped in the aural equivalent of half-popped bubble wrap that's been left to melt in the mid-afternoon sun.
|
|
This batch of jangly riffs, her crispest and sharpest, would sound dandy if played over conventional rock backing, but electronically treated they fascinate — for the overwhelming immediacy of their aural crunch and swirl as much as for what the blend means in the abstract.
|
|
The success of the audio version relies heavily on the comedian's vocal and modulating verve, the aural equivalent of a pair of eyeglasses that slide down the nose only to be pushed back up again (which I've seen Bell, like other eyeglass wearers, do).
|

It was super relaxing, and it also made a really good point about VR: this demo wouldn't have worked if I'd been sat at a random table somewhere, I had to be in that ultra comfy seat to get the full visual, aural, and ergonomic experience.
|

This churning collection of dark, etheral, odes to the desperate void has long been yearning to be set free on the unsuspecting public like a tempest of raging atonality in a glass of aural unreason, and today is the day that the deed shall be done.

When they finally came, Maker answered them with a gentlemanly reserve, in a quiet voice with a distinctive international accent that barely retains an African tinge; it is not an accent from any one particular place, and something like an aural representation of his well-stamped passport.

After spending a good chunk of the afternoon with Apple's new Siri-controlled speaker, listening to tunes in the company's tony Tribeca apartment meeting space, I'm more convinced than ever that Apple has built an aural triumph in its initial entry to the "smart speaker" space.

If the streaming service's recent hit "Bird Box" seemed like an ocular companion to the aural deprivation of "A Quiet Place," this new film feels like a de facto prequel, catching the apocalyptic moment when hordes of sound-sensitive creatures wipe out the bulk of humanity.
|

Instead, the aural tapestry here is far more nuanced—often operating in the grey and damp areas between dubstep, UK Garage, trap, jungle, rap and anything else that translates best in one of our darkened and slightly soaked cul-de-sacs, glowing under the orange street lamps.
|
|
Pussy Cats is one of those distinctly 70s aural documents of debauchery—you can hear them all partying in the studio, stumbling half-blind through raucous covers of "Subterranean Homesick Blues" and "Rock Around the Clock," and yet you can also hear the darkness and exhaustion setting in.
|
|
Another element that seems relevant to me is that if we're being invited to an event about a device that does away with reading and typing/tapping and is all about speaking and listening, then having no words on the invite also fits with the aural and oral theme.
|
|
Produced by Vampire Weekend's Rostam Batmanglij, whose own music shares Clairo's affinity for meticulous luxury, the album's mildly serrated rhythm guitar, faded synth clouds, and skeletal piano lines combine to form an airy aural blanket, cozy and immersive, more sumptuous in tandem than each element would sound separately.
|
|
If the recording is perfect, like my copy of Renaud Garcia-Fons' Mediterranees, you can just sit back and relax, but most modern music isn't purely acoustic and has a bunch of imperfections and little pieces of aural grit — and the Ether Flows expose every last one of them.
|
|
Premised on a kind of combinatory pragmatism that was all but inescapable at the turn of the 2010s, the band is formula made flesh, an aural manifestation of a few guys kicking around ideas and influences from the inner sanctity of their practice space, not expecting any immediate attention.
|
|
THE ENCOUNTER One of the hottest tickets at the Edinburgh International Festival last summer, Simon McBurney's solo show, which went on to a sold-out run at the Barbican in London, uses innovative aural technology to tell the tale of a photographer lost in the Amazon rain forest.
|
|
The aural difference between the ball of a foot and the tip of a toe is visually magnified by an entire swiveling leg; the bassy boom of a dropped heel is emphasized by deep-bending knees, the whole sinking body seeming to sustain the sound as it decays.
|
|
This use of on-the-nose mechanical sounds to break with our expectations of pop feels like an aural example of the fact that using machines doesn't immediately spell laziness, or a lack of creativity, as is often perceived, especially with pop (over other genres like dance and electronic).
|
|
The aural nightmare is further complemented by band leader Philippe Tougas' dry rasps, wet, reptilian gurgles, and colorful tales of eldritch horror; like Immortal, Chthe'ilist has created its own fantasy realm to run wild within, but Eil'udom's malevolent gloom feels far more sinister than Blashyrkh's pristine snow drifts.
|
|
It contains two 1,500-plus-seat theaters, each of which, I am told, has fine acoustics; the building, which sits on more than 18 acres, is said to have been so well-designed that it can and often does host two different performances simultaneously without any aural crossover.
|
|
Once you're in, it's easy to get lost in the aural sensation of hearing a language you don't often encounter; as someone who doesn't understand Hmong, it's enveloping, almost nerve-wracking to listen in via phone, a communication mode we think of as private, two-way, and closed.
|
|
Does he just have a really nice sofa for when people come over?), I am pleased to say that because it basically just sounds like one of the more upbeat Frank songs from Channel Orange with added Migos (on a sunnier flow than usual), "Slide" is a balmy aural delight.

She melds aesthetic and aural strategies associated with these movements and styles with influences from sci-fi literature, Afrofuturism, as well as alternative religious groups like the Shakers, adding a quasi-spiritual element to her works, which purport the existence of alternate realities while remaining firmly rooted in the contemporary.
|
|
Talking Heads turn the song inside out, revealing the seams: Frantz's drumming is slower, more lumbering, yet somehow larger in the aural space; Weymouth's bass is slinky and flat simultaneously; only the guitar hook in the chorus contains echoes of the original song's central chord progression, turned cruder and more industrial.
|
|
When you hear those sharp vowels reverberate around your skull, you know what time it is: the words are pretty much a prerequisite to ScHoolboy Q ploughing into your consciousness, as his dank-ass ad-libs pass into your ears like they're participating in some aural form of second hand smoke.
|
|
She coos "I try/ To stay away from you but you get me high / Only person in this town that I like / Guess I can take one more trip for the night" to a chilled out, slow-thumping beat—an aural encapsulation of taking a Xanax on a night out.
|
|
The folksy lil number features Diesel hammering away about sixteen octaves lower than Selena (it sounds a bit like a father and daughter doing karaoke I'm just putting it out there) against a track that I would describe as the aural equivalent of putting EDM and folk in a blender.
|
|
Gregg Barnes's costume design comes with whiplash-quick changes that prompt a double take, while Hugh Vanstone's lighting allows the visuals to carve out their own terrain in what in lesser hands might remain primarily an aural triumph — happy though one would be to listen to this cast sing till dawn.
|
|
Finding a spot on the sound stage floor, which was covered in fluffy sheepskin rugs, leather couches and a few mattresses, I settled in for the sound bath—a kind of New Age ceremony meant to blend music, meditation and an aural massage—as the low rumbling sounds undulated and artificial candles flickered.
|
|
Nilu Haidari The fizzing debauchery here—popping 808s, dirty house of horrors synths, Britney's almost pornographic purring—was like an aural fantasy of how, as a young gay boy, I imagined every gay club to be: sweaty anonymous bodies grinding up on each other while people casually cop off in the corners.
|
|
A solo show as dependent on visual and aural design as on verbal storytelling, it invites us into a homey, communal space — warm on a chilly evening, and smelling of good things from the kitchen — then outfits each of us with tools of isolation: a pair of headphones and a loaner smartphone.
|
|
To all but the most flamboyantly neurotic residents of Manhattan, who feel that anything more than 211 minutes spent in the woods will devolve into a horror movie, it is clear what is unnerving about metropolitan life: both human and vehicular congestion and the pollution, aural and environmental, to which they give rise.
|
|
Over a quietly extraordinary 25-year career, which includes bona fide masterpieces like "Old Joy" and "Meek's Cutoff," Reichardt has formed a visual and aural language all her own, a symbolic system rooted in nature, silence, steadily propulsive movement and discreet character study that upends viewers' expectations, and ultimately, their entire cinematic experience.
|
|
What was billed as a "techno set" at the Carolina Theater gave the Berlin-based electronic duo Mouse on Mars (with a guest rapper, Spank Rock) the opportunity to stack up frenetic beats and riffs, then gleefully knock them around with aural slapstick: wobbling pitches, goofy sound effects, sudden swerves and skids.
|
|
But the researchers warn that anyone with a compromised device on their home network, or who has opened up their network to provide direct access to a server they're running to the external internet—say, to host a game server or share files—has potentially left their fancy speakers vulnerable to an epic aural prank.

FRIEDMAN And it was not entirely clear to me whether the fashion served the quotations, or the quotations explained the fashion, or whether it depended on what you were seeing, and reading (and hearing — all those words being read aloud, plus Judy Garland's final, cracked rendition of "Over the Rainbow" as an aural backdrop).
|
|
Beyond a self-evident pun referring to music played 19813 feet underground, "Deep Listening" signified Ms. Oliveros's emerging aural discipline: a practice that compelled listening not just to the conventional details of a given musical performance — melody, harmony, rhythm, intonation — but also to sounds surrounding that performance, including acoustic space and extra-musical noise.
|
|
This aural alchemy—including the recordings for her upcoming release, The Kid—is composed and created in a tiny 10- by 20-foot garage located outside of LA. Smith calls it her "sound sculpture studio," but it's really a construction site: a place where waveforms are layered like bricks to build towering walls of sound. 1.
|
|
Imagine the aural onslaught of Deftones without all the sad-sackiness, combined with the soul-filled syncopation of Every Time I Die without the good ol' boy shtick, and throw in the animalistic invention of At the Drive-In without the college-boy self-importance—add a wink and a worn-in smile and you'd have the new Glassjaw.
|
|
It's always been easy, a cop-out maybe, to cast Marshall as a specifically south London musician—one couched in the semantics of Joe Strummer or The Damned and their respective influences, bound together by the aural troposphere of trip-hop and rap and set to the weed-scented scene of roaming nocturnally through SE16 in moonlit autumnal rain.
|
|
After leaving Underground Resistance, in 1993, Hood issued two stripped-back, highly controlled albums in 1994 that further altered dance music's course: "Minimal Nation," for which an entire subgenre, minimal techno, is named, and the tightly coiled, vigorously playful "Internal Empire," whose tracks were like sonic Magic Eye images, changing aural shape, first subtly and then at increasing speed.
|
|
In its slew of references, its relentless genre-shuffling, its specific lyrical and musical allusions to black music history, the album interpolates shards of culture without necessarily producing something new — she has no aural signature, no recognizable Solange style beyond neosoul's default harmonic palette, and when a song's lyric isn't simple and declarative it shrinks from view.
|
|
The soundscape project, created by a team at the Rochester Institute of Technology, will digitally recreate the "auditory signature" of a historic studio on Nashville's Music Row and the 3,000-year-old Chavin de Huantar archaeological site in Peru, as part of an effort to establish protocols for preserving the "aural heritage" of historic sites and structures.
|
|
While directors and choreographers such as Judith Malina, Pina Bausch, Elizabeth LeCompte, and Robert Wilson put a lot of thought and energy into destabilizing texts—making verbiage just one sound in a landscape of visual and aural experimentation—storytelling, or, more specifically, the question of how to tell a story, is still a driving force in their work.
|
|
Because he writes minimalist and visually distinctive poetry, Lax sometimes gets lumped into the categories of concrete or visual poetry — Aram Saroyan's seminal "lighght" is the obvious precedent here — but Lax's "light" poem, a deck of cards being shuffled and re-shuffled, evinces a manic verbal energy that seems as much aural as it is visual.
|
|
Ski Mask the Slump God: Beware the Book of Eli (Victor/Republic) For those of us who care about novelty singles, Ski Mask the Slump God was 2017's most exciting rapper, cackling his way through desolate aural landscapes like "Catch Me Outside" and the magnificent Keith Ape collaboration "Achoo" with merry resignation and gallows humor.
|
|
As busy as that description sounds, it's almost the breather the project needs before the high-tech aural blitz starts up again: "Natural Selection" careens through an atmosphere of fizzy synth stardust on four-to-the-floor rails; "Summing the Wretch" pairs digitally processed vocals against yet more amphibian-esque squelches; "The Burglars" flirts with becoming a number from a chiptune opera.
|

Abu Hamdan will be presenting a new iteration of the final part, called Contra-diction: Speech against itself, of his Aural Contract trilogy this week at the Festival of Voice in Cardiff, Wales, UK. The trilogy looks at the function of the voice in law and how it's changing with new technologies, increased border control, and all-pervasive government and corporate surveillance systems.

Shop the Braun Digital Ear Thermometer at Amazon, $35.41 Just like astronomers measure the temperature of stars and planets with infrared technology, you can quickly figure out your body temperature with aural thermometers, which Since this method avoids contact with mucous membranes, it eliminates the possibility of cross-infection and is also safer to use with newborns and critically ill patients.

Sohonie, a New York based crate digger, compiler, and aural ethnographer, has spent much of his working life collating incredibly obscure records from relatively obscure outposts around the globe, creating albums that are as much richly diverse encapsulations of periods in time as they are source material for DJs bored by the rigidity of the music that's usually played out in Western clubs.

"I wanted to do a show that would work, something I actually knew I liked talking about and that I knew something about," she tells me of developing Not Safe, which features panels, field reporting, and experiments on topics from aural sex to dick pics to how the only thing she wants after a one-night stand is a damn glass of water.

Happy hardcore is essentially the aural equivalent of eating 16 double cheeseburgers in a single sitting, then glugging down the same number of cans of knock-off fizzy drink, then smoking a 20 deck of JPS, without so much as a pause for breath all before getting into one of those human gyroscopes with a battered and broken 808 for company.

M.P. Two young Afghan refugees crossed Europe in search of safety in the Scottish company Vox Motus's "Flight," an affecting show that, sans live actors, was a triumph of visual and aural design — the story of the journey told through a series of exquisitely detailed miniature dioramas that gave spectators the heart-racing sensation of being immersed in the boys' peril.
|
|
There's a multi-faceted realness that clings to ANTI in ways that are absent from her other albums—think of the earnest crack in her voice on "Higher," the self-confidence that has made her a modern style icon in aural form on "Sex With Me," or the audacious choice to record a straight cover of Tame Impala's "Same Old Mistakes" just because she liked the song.
|
|
The latter involves a slow fraying-at-the-seams of Elliot's visual and aural consciousness: After six days without sleep, pixelated glitches appear around the edges of objects, his friend Leon starts talking backward, lines of code flash into view, the drum of a clothes dryer spins endlessly in his enormous eyes even when he's far from the laundry room, a ballplayer dunks on infinite repeat.
|

A tad staticky with an ominous sub-tone, this aural prop seems in retrospect a portentous harbinger of showdown number two that will take place next week between President TrumpDonald John TrumpFacebook releases audit on conservative bias claims Harry Reid: 'Decriminalizing border crossings is not something that should be at the top of the list' Recessions happen when presidents overlook key problems MORE and Kim in Hanoi.

In case you need an aural description of how that event went, listen to their most recent track "ROWDY BADD" – which darts through fragments of bassline, grime and dubstep – then reimagine it as a renaissance painting of hundreds of people gasping for air, eyes rolling in the back of their heads as they stretch for bottles of tap water from their mate's outstretched arms.

Occasionally, songs from Ace of Base, Culture Club, and White Lies pop up — but the most prominent aural input is just cranked-up sound design that amplifies the feeling of dirty horror, whether via the squeak of the hinges in a prosthetic limb, the fwing of a machete brought down on prey, or the sound of clothing tearing as a body is dragged across the dirt.

Mixed in among original music and period-era songs are older NIN tracks as well as songs from The Social Network and The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, which suggests a clear authorial pattern of reuse; adding aural texture to one of the most horrific and disorienting periods in American history is easy when you've got this particular catalogue of work behind you to draw from.

On Tuesday, New York City Ballet, the world's foremost specialist in this music-movement fusion, opened its six-week winter season at the David H. Koch Theater with welcome new aspects of aural accompaniment inside the auditorium (the new music director, Andrew Litton, was conducting a program of American scores, admirably) and new aspects of design around the theater's other spaces (Marcel Dzama redecorated the main upstairs foyer with ostentatious triviality).

Both sisters sing together, usually in unison but sometimes trading lead and backup roles, or timing their entwined harmonies so that one pellucid singer's utterances seem woven into the other's, echoing through the aural space — as when their voices merge over the swirling organ in "It's a Shame," or when their chirpy, ping-ponging exclamations set up the dizzy guitar spiral in "Distant Star," descending and climbing upward again.

A strong and commanding voice in the support of queer and trans identities in the music and club space, Crampton aims to instill positivity and progression into her productions, which are an aural smorgasbord of astral dripped pads, stilted reggaeton-esque percussion, chaotically spiraling piano keys, and perfectly disorientating sound effects to create an out-of-this-world experience that is quite hard to compare with anything else out there.

"Sober" feels, put crudely, like an aural journey through the inelegant reality of getting smashed, with its loud, weird heartbeat and the palpable sense that a paranoid Lorde could be delivering the lyrics to her reflection in a broken mirror while sat on the toilet at a rager (indeed, she told the New York Times back in April that the album would "tell the story of a single house party").

The crown, which is part of a Coachella-themed promotion, comes as a bonus item with the purchase of pre-rolled joints containing their new "Coachella" marijuana blend, a combination of four strains which Lowell Herb Co. partner Sean (who requested we not use his last name) tells THUMP was created specifically to optimize the music festival experience by reducing anxiety and heightening the visual and aural senses.

On the Italian quartet's new album, Feast for Water (out April 6 via Aural Music), they've embraced those outré elements with a vengeance, dipping further into their well of influences, and doubling down on the jazz on songs like the understated, velvety "Leah," or the meandering, 70s-flecked "Tulsi"—which, in their hands, comes across as smooth but complex, like fine wine, with a dusky, lush tone that feels almost Satanic in its decadence.

Tracks like "Riot Van" and "Mardy Bum" from the Monkeys' debut took things away from the club, with the former coming across like a bonding session between wreckheads in spite of being arrested by the police and the latter sounding like an aural reinterpretation of an episode of Coronation Street that starts with two lovers cuddling in the kitchen, then throwing plates at each others heads, then ending with them in love.

Staged in a rickety wooden maze before an audience kept standing and against the aural background of a recorded conversation between David Lynch and the composer Angelo Badalamenti, Mr. Simons produced a deft and modest show of supersize letter jackets; tailored coats in traditional British woolens; immense and holey boyish sweaters with ragged hems that tenderly evinced the designer's respect for the innovations of his Belgian countryman Mr. Margiela and for the fragile landscape of boyhood.

According to the original Pepper myth, the Beatles, in retreating to the studio and taking the time to realize their every ambition, poured heart, soul, and insane creative vision into an aural artifact whose conceptual framework, total coherence, and self-conscious artistry proved that rock & roll was as serious a genre as any, elevated it to the level of painting, literature, and classical music, utterly transformed the world, and baptized the entire human race in the warmth of the Beatles' glow.
