2009. The

Incredibly, now are the first ten years of the new millennium to a close. The collected recollections of the decade exceed those of their number this time, almost to the year end.

the decade.
It is the first decade, the practice from my personal point of view entirely as "music workers" is to look back. The brand "ink music do since 2001. The forerunner of the currently active music publisher is attributable to that year as well as the beginnings of a booking agency and record label. Much has changed, much remains. The postulated artist development succeeded magnificently in some cases than in others. Pleasing and outstanding positive examples such as YES, PANIC, which have permitted to expand into Germany and Flashbax "as grown since its beginnings in this House. The current album "The Fear And The Money" as a former high point of her work available on many year's best lists in 2009 - and in many a review of the best of the "new millennium" (including butterflies, press). Garish have become a real brand, from subtle beginnings CLARA Luzia's been a really big issue, TROUBLE OVER TOKYO has taken - it was a decade of intense and beautiful music for the house inc. Not least the final - since 2008, moving to new premises in the 17 District of Vienna, we doubled our order of magnitude more than technically.

crisis.
addition to our development, 2009 is the year of the crisis that no one has noticed. Michael Jackson has died - and has an Austrian would-large organizer is incredibly embarrassing disaster from the pop-heaven sent. Barack Obama in his first year as U.S. president the Nobel Peace Prize and explained in his speech to many to be realistic that there is war in the world (unfortunately) need - get. Hermann Maier resigns, the iPhone will be mass-produced, terabyte storage common.

Two zero.
Web 2.0 is the dictum of everyday life in the urban heart arteries of the world and beyond. Facebook and Twitter are the media of the year habit and language change permanently (so far untouched keyboard functions such as # are suddenly important!). Surging revolutions are increasingly "2.0" instead of - as the "Audi Maxi Sten" proven in the University of Vienna. Like the people in Iran who are dictatorial, with the massive election fraud in favor of not give the ruling, fundamentalist religious controlled government in their country do satisfied.

controlled hysterization
This is probably still affect us in the near future, the media will continue to change and we with them. Apropos. The only thing in the ailing medium of television "pulls" still are "events" - that is anno 2009 still account for casting shows that phenomena such as an "ugly duckling" called Susan Boyle or extremely talented dog to Super Stars .

called The second factor for success in show business is still "provocation". The 2009 show quite embarrassing way besides Rammstein (Adult Video Promo for ... well) a certain Lady Gaga, which was unsuccessful as a talented songwriter, as a scandal but the media sent noodle wrapped around her finger. It is also now official that Ibiza is everywhere, the omnipresent David Guetta is thanks. Gossip encounter with Rick Rubin as producer and a major label to well as a gas sensor, the mainstream door and bring the trend of previous years, the crossover of punk, rock and electronics, finally in the charts. Apart from celebrating the indie charts in the environment such as the subtle Biedermeier-inspired Songschreibertum a new spring. Emiliana Torrini, an indie-bred Icelandic stumbles with "Jungle Drum" almost inadvertently to superstardom. Marit Larsen Amy McDonald and others dancing in this series.

Bemerkenswerite of red and releases of international recognition is still coming exclusively from the "FM4" Eck: Soap & Skin, Clara Luzia, Kreisky, yes, panic ensure proper riot outside the national borders. The Amadeus in its new version tries to appreciate, but fails at the narrowness of the local audience. Anna F. begiebelkreuzte sad is the flagship example of this.

Cinemaustria
Austria surfs the cinema still felt on a wave of success. In this country for years ignored rising thanks to Christoph Waltz Quentin Tarantino's "Inglourious Basterds" a superstar with Oscar chances, Michael Haneke won the Golden Palm at Cannes for "The white band," Gotz Spielmann receives an Oscar nomination for "revenge".

Because even remakes and sequels do not go out of fashion, The Dark Knight and Star Trek are the glorious leader (exceptions) very clever and well-made blockbuster movies. Harry Potter is not yet finished his Septologie because it is already vampire ("Twilight") to his reputation as a teenager, no. disenchanted first

northern Slovenia
Austria is continuing its policy on the motorway towards banana republic impressive. Hypo Alpe Adria is proof that Jörg Haider not only his car could go to the wall. The poor Carinthia also get his own blue range People's Front of Judea . Inspired by the recent work of SPÖ-ÖVP examines the general manager of all times an adequate Super Intern . For the third National President in 2009 is an Olympic year. The Science Minister in Brussels can crow to himself.

The Future Is Now.
And in 2010, the new decade? Apple will devour the next book, bring a Tablet PC on the market and send it to speak, the young "Kindle" on Amazon in early retirement and iPhone as an enlarged again a small instigate revolution. Print media can then have a more difficult, the Internettisierung the world will move forward. Facebook will not disappear just as quickly as myspace, but also lose their meaning. People will learn to identify the core benefits and go beyond their contacts and world news ("... now go to the bathroom! ") Personify.

the U.S. are preparing to drive to her being paranoid at the lead and travels to the land of limited impossibilities to be totally absurd. In Austria, more policy after the wind, which are made of the Kronen Zeitung entfläucht. Not much new words.
Rejoicing to 2010. What remains auch anderes übrig.

Ö3 dilemma.

Austrian music is in the local radio landscape is still far too little place. An attempt to explain.

added to cut down the leader is easy - and as such it can not make Ö3 naturally everybody. The station is in a dilemma: on the one hand, one of the "cultural mandate" on the nose held, on the other hand, says the nearly 50% of advertising revenue ORF that has to be a Cash Cow Ö3 and is flush with the highest possible range of money into the company. In this way we have to finance, not least twinned stations that come much closer to the cultural mandate (Ö1, FM4). A paradox.

The result is pure fear - and that is usually a bad adviser, as well as a background for 15 years consistently adjacent channel policy to deal with Ö music. Instead here content produced convincing the "USP" and thus to make his strength, "safe" ruled tactics with the droning 80's hits and consensus so that accompanying confusability.

that Austrian music the listener brings to switch, is this an absurd March of the mark "self-fulfilling prophecy: as long as they are in sheltered workshops with stamps such as" New Austrians "forcibly collected, you are doing them and prevent them from becoming even more good - evidence is provided sufficiently, and well meant, unfortunately, is sometimes quite the opposite of good. FM4 has about as a positive, very different matter of course developed. On

ultimate "no" Sager, the failure manifests itself in its own setting: "Our listeners want to hear not" - as can Austrians are so many new and placarded Soundcheck winners will be drumming. to try this bounded on all sides apparatus something new, daring discoveries, the John Peel to leave out - and thus to prevent an audience and to interest: quasi impossible (Eberhard Forcher is an exception confirming the rule). Even the responsible editors is from this perspective, hardly an accusation to make.

The best result would be to administer a dose ORF courage to let Ö3 be more wind and less tail. The editors could then prove that they are capable of very well ironed out between plastic and sustainably-relevant pop production distinguished. Perhaps life would actually be a hit.

Menstruation Delayed By 6 Days

Blumenau.

There was recently a couple of good reasons , with friends about the character Martin Blumenau discussed. Were mainly the relevant inputs and "questions" from the outside up to me, and I have always taken an outsider. Let me explain - and quite by chance justament especially now that he himself also me and our new 80-year project are recorded. In a way, So this is the replica.

Blumenau has always been a scratching post, a really nasty guy, a classic case of "thorn in the flesh" - and for many. It is difficult for many up to him, and even harder to get along with him. Even with "colleagues" (Karl curse) or long-time friends (Walter Gröbchen) had recently been unbelievable, because even very public opinion battles. Though I did for more than ten years and know him again meet, opens up I am still not entirely sure whether Martin Blumenau more character or person.

In the former case, and that I will believe firmly until (he) prove me wrong, He is one of the most important contemporary at all. My position in discussions about the person then this is Blumenau: What has he unpacks, method. As a figure he is a martyr to his own idea. He may grumble and polemics, his provocative and challenging - but in exactly this form of immense importance.

one hand, because he FM4 course a great voice at his disposal, that his "opinion" and multiplied it gives a tremendous value. Second, and rather, but because it is always wider benefit of the "thing" is: What Blumenau that is most consistently make is to reclaim the discourse.

kindly quarrel! If I insult you: Scolds back! And kindly do it decently, not half-heartedly! It's not really about personal insults (although they are sometimes part of the method) - it's about being able to speak his mind and to be allowed. And much more concerned, within such - to do something very important discourse - often emotional: to think. You should be able to justify his opinion well, you should be able to stand behind his opinion. In order to give the necessary weight of this challenge is soft caress and consensual thinking (which would correspond more to me) sometimes the wrong approach. It needed a Blumenau.

His "game" takes place here on the meta-level and affords it certainly mistakes. He insists on education, knowledge of history, facts and loyalty - but it takes too lightly in the purchase, to put itself on accuracy is not too much value. That's my name in the current article first Tschürtz Martin (and I refuse to believe that he did not know better) and he moved the Bravo Hits in the 80s. Even the method could be, I argue here, however apologetically that the speed of his medium (specifically, the daily journal) also calls for sacrifices - such as Speed and Schlampigkeitsfehler. I myself was a journalist, I have myself and just admit today to how hard it is, an accurate and daily to write blog.

And even if it sometimes does not meet quality criteria equivalent to some critical reader:
Martin Blumenau provides conversation - which also proves this article. Precisely this also brings her daily journal. He is an agenda setter. He says that's being talked about. And this role he takes very seriously. The objective level, his very own, personal opinions are ultimately secondary. His goal, he has achieved, by the people on the screen, will make contradictory.

Ultimately it points to the fact that discourse ability (in the personal sense) and freedom (the global) are two things that are not be overestimated. They are the breeding ground for progress, for further development. we do not discuss (or it is harder for us or even forbidden), we degenerate as people and society more quickly than we would like. It is a central task of the journalist, every day on this one - insist on a fundamental right and to prove his importance - his very own. The Internet helps us immensely (Widerspruch! discussion!) - So does the format consistent with the theory.

I want this, my Blumenau-image to believe and therefore give the "free radicals" the space it needs. His articles sometimes reap my consent, and sometimes they cause a shake of the head, usually they make me . Think Everything as it should be and wanted.

There should be absolutely no pattern in this Blumenau devoted fans - it would contradict the principle. Simply: Would all this wrong and Blumenau intentions completely different - it is a big disappointment and it would be a lot more would be called into question. But that's another story, as well as my personal position on "Death To The 80s".

Music Week Blog, Day 5-10.

The fatal irregularity tried this diary shows already: we were not bored in the last ten days. It was nevertheless a great experience. The first INK MUSIC WEEK is behind us - and not only that It was a trial and a quick shot from the hip, we can be very satisfied.

On Monday afternoon, according to this madness meets the team first "away" to process the collected impressions together. A preliminary analysis of what has happened since everything is announced.

summary in again soon, which I had failed to "blog": First there was Windmill in Chelsea (5). On Tuesday I felt at the start of inkademy Autumn Series Fluc little strange, but had the unusual stage and micro-version of the talk is, 'Being A Stand-Up Comedian. " Still good if goes to the feedback.

Wednesday in a lively discussion with many colleagues on the panel of the Flex Café and in the audience - very well attended, in the result but we have come just at a fraction of an analysis of the situation, but could gain no "breakthrough" findings. We (panelists) were nevertheless we agreed that we should continue to make sure the recorded thread. Someone had to start simply, it seems - and talk, even if related, as in this case was certainly not a mistake.

Thursday gave an informative talk about the entanglements between film and music - and why there are so few really scenic connection points. We have come to understand why the business model, " Sync " this country does not really exist. This is still an exciting challenge to look into this field. The theatrical presentation of "Do all with" was the only flop of the week - unfortunately, very few were interested in the amusing film documentary. The subsequent soundtrack for this night has a really intense and long party to be related. Despite many visits Schikaneder I have never been there so many people on their feet and dancing seen. I take it as a compliment to The Fabulous Baker Boys :-).

Friday we were guests of The Gap 100 years celebration - a celebration, as in Beech stands. The most gorgeous WUK filled in every nook and cranny, and picture book as one of many cool acts on stage - and as a "surprise winner of the evening," as it announced the Gap's executive offices pleased.

The super-Above-finals on the Saturday - the "Death To The 80s" -bash in the horticultural cinema. A lot of people, very good mood, very long time. It was an intense final party. For the team it was around 7 clock with a breakfast at Café Drechsler over. Also long gone so made.

The INK MUSIC WEEK many aspects of our work, our passion and our life in the public transported. Since concerts are just as serious to discussions, debates with future topics and training opportunities as well as including built other art forms, that music (can) are closely related - and of course parties. We hopefully have found the public the right balance for this mixture. For me personally, I can say: it was lovely. Intensive wars. Well was it. Thank you, it was an honor!

How Say Congratulations Differently

Music Week Blog, Day 2-4.

Friday night in Flex with Yes, panic . Perhaps the main highlight of this on our first "INK MUSIC WEEK". It is an extremely positive voltage to sense which after completion Concert in liberating party atmosphere dissolves. Yes, panic, despite technical problems and keep the pent-up pressure of expectation was loose. Neither band has songs lose even one gram of urgency, immediacy and power of the plate. A memorable evening.

Saturday night, "Long Night of Museums". Hellsongs record on the House of Music, in the reception hall, visitors crowd close to the best seats. We pass on the third day with ease the 1,000-visitor mark and see happy Faces adult children. Speaking of reminds me of the charming singer Siri always on Molly Ringwald. It does not do too much to the point - to the uninitiated, not a second thought heavy metal background for this lounge trio. A repertoire caster loses the other hand, a smile and sing along in a strange newly ordered world he thought he knew. This band: A pleasure.

Sunday afternoon, the recovery search in phil is pure fun. First, because here (long from now on, one week) exhibited photographs by Flo Wieser and Niko Ostermann are considered extremely beautiful, and secondly because of the crowds to the opening of this "The first 3 numbers " designated exhibition is enormous love, peace and chocolate cake -.. And coffee Four in ten days are over at the daily dose of fatigue, we have been accustomed to full houses and happy visitors, we have seen a lot -. We take but like to have more -... it is the perseverance makes it very easy

Golden Birthday Cake Recipes

Music Week Blog, Day 1

Day 1 and already a meltdown Meanwhile, one ceases to believe in karma that one day everything will be fine and come back, what you been to (supposedly?) good . deeds has thrown into the world or you ask yourself free to Yes, panic: Whether I deserve it

THOSE DANCING DAYS arrived from Sweden and for the opening concert the INK MUSIC WEEK loaded. Stupid just that the band is almost at the end of a long, long tour, and almost directly from Brazil came to Vienna. That such things can have physical consequences, has become the five incredibly likeable girls yesterday painfully aware of - their front woman / singer was already making the day a very tired and feeling after the dinner finally collapsed and literally.

While Deckchair Orange to the planned support and Rapid denied matchte with Celtic, we were so justament 10th cancel birthday of the "good club" before the situation, a concert with a band that has arrived on the point of need. All well and seriously intentioned attempts by band, management, and us, but yet to allow a concert, were unfortunately in vain - what to do if health does not play along ... we were not all happy.

The remaining band was still on the stage, explained and apologized - and played a mini-instrumental set, in between spontaneously accompanied by a female fan course this is not a full concert experience, but the band demonstrated their will and had to circumstances even much joy in spite of existing enthusiasm of the audience.

Meanwhile, we wondered how we could solve this situation. With band and management had long been agreed as soon as possible to seek a replacement concert (date is not fixed yet). After the band so I boarded the stage, people have repeatedly explained the situation and offered to all those present to have stamped their pre-sale tickets from us. These stamped cards are now valid choice tickets for the replacement concert - or the authorization, the money within the next few days the Youth Info (by next Friday, 09.10.) Zurückzukriegen. People who had paid at the box office received a ticket voucher for the same purpose of us (or, alternatively, their entry fee back).

We hope to have the best possible scenario for all of these unfortunate could make the situation. And do not forget there was a full concert (Deckchair Orange) and a thoroughly-nice club birthday party rum round. In this respect, the visitor feel this offer hope to be so accommodating as we intended it. And on the new edition of Those Dancing Days-show we are happy.

Lauren Strip Scene From Melrose Place

Amadeus, Amadeus - Conclusion.

The day after. Hangover whether too little sleep, a good deal of exuberance and a long previous day with Austrian Music Convention and Amadeus. Somehow one is that way. I'm here recently to analyze the new Amadeus format had been tried and interviews on the topic. This has earned me criticism - in part because I was misunderstood. Now that the whole thing is over, we can draw a short, first summary.

The Amadeus has celebrated a kind of rebirth - and that was good. Of course it is and remains a music awards ceremony, their meaning and "coolness" is always only partially opens. But: The IFPI has shown courage. The "evil" major industry has been married by her horse down, took a look around, the reality is finally being recognized (declining record sales, other means of communication to the "Fan") and to dare to include a wide scene image on the stage. Why not!

That's not the first year terrific work - especially in the sense of audience, sponsorship revenue and media response: clear. That this experiment was as true as importantly, clear. In the long term can thus establish an authentic identity for this award. Something that simulate the awards in the last nine years attempting an international awards show, always wanting.

No one, international guests and prices yesterday also be addressed only partially - and rightly so. The most applause of the usual parlous state of "industry public" has raked in a band that would not have been awarded in the least a platform for such a performance: The Sorrow (by then also a prize in their "Metal" category dusting). Even our afternoon for the convention who traveled international guests have recognized that (they have all Fatima Spar & The Freedom Fries, and Bunny Lake Kreisky scribbled in their notebooks).

What the show with much to discuss what one still missing was a decent atmosphere (see "Industry people problem"). We have a small group to have developed an idea that I will propose to the men you: choose a slightly bigger location (although the MQ me well suited appeared) - and include not only the fans for voting, but also for the event: Each Nominated Band to take their most loyal fans 30-50 (must) - a perfect "price" for voting, a huge bonus for the atmosphere. I am sure that the exchange between metal, hip-hop and pop fans will ultimately contribute to a colorful frame can - and perhaps can build bridges to help overcome the existing, deep divisions between local scenes. An extra round of applause for recognizing this goes out to Kamp & Whizz Vienna, who were once the same brotherhood with Andreas Gabalier and a mash-up on stage staged - why not?

Fans will even be little angry if they miss the traditional slaughter at the buffet and the industry-standard alcohol disposal action (have to). If the "VIPs" halt. Apropos. This year gabs rumgereichtes finger food instead of a massive buffets SuperE idea to have economical. No scramble, but a little small staff was obviously available. And to go to those who insult the Amadeus whole year, then, flat drink for free and then he again scold, Why do ye look at that and not remain simply at home?

There are criticisms, of course. The already discussed - the details of the voting system for example. Or the fact that a lot of money from a completely non-transparent funds for social and cultural institutions in this event should flow to enable it. Things that are addressed later in this discussion, certainly, not to mention should remain and should allow for constructive development of this format. Today, however, should first of all this positive development and predominate overall impression.

The Amadeus had no chance - and used it. He is well on the way to be thoroughly honest, down to earth
-Austrian music event. No Glam, the there are not eh, no wrong size simulating pseudo-pop world, the market conditions here do not anyway. A small plantlets, of course. Let's hope that it will be a strong tree. There

Other treatments of this topic, it is not uninteresting of my esteemed colleagues Walter Gröbchen and Martin Blumenau - and an outside view of things from Christian Schachinger in the standard.

Festivalfail, drum and base.

Until just now I was diplomatic, reserved and cautious about the "Indie Festival Project" concerns. But now I feel impelled to make a statement on this. The festival, for 1 August in the Ottakringer brewery had stated, because of acute lack of funds (the engineering firm could not be paid) in the middle - be stopped - against 23 clock. Some bands had to then go home empty-handed as well as the (few) paying guests.

expresses Now organizer Peter Görbert in an interview on Youtube about the events and the future - and this really takes the final draft from the floor: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3N_Cra5iSxM

Remember the history ( ikoon has them in his blog listed chronologically very nice and more detailed):

A German student in Vienna announced a "completely new kind of festival for 10,000 visitors in the brewery Ottakringer, as headliners are Kings Of Leon and Phoenix promised. These acts are committed Austrian. Not surprisingly, turn out to the international guests quickly as soap bubbles - but at least the talk of the town festival.

Görbert Peter was previously not even noticed as the organizer of a birthday celebration, he was euphoric and drauflosgewerkt naive and disregard of all rules of business for lack of knowledge simply. What he obviously lacked was scene bond, note the organizational, infrastructural and other for handling such an event necessary things - well, one should deny anyone his chances. And finally, his reference was just a waiter work in Munich's P1.

The festival is still busy with pomp and fanfare advertised on gotv and other platforms. He stressed there is optimism in the run - and gives the Report obligatory ticket three weeks before the event in 1200 sold tickets. Even on the day before the event, he speaks proudly of the "surprising progress of ticket sales" and that 1700 tickets were sold. The astonishment on our part that are accompanied by factors such as that agreed for Advanced fee fees of the bands still either incomplete or not at all. Attempts to elicit the reasons to do so (misdirected payments will be so happened already) fail, just stay out of promised payment confirmations.

that the festival is even a such a disaster and no staff, including 300 people are present (which was to be expected sooner), the technology company midway veers off the electricity and due to the box office of course, no fees were paid is one thing. nachzuschieben On the other hand, the "cheating" from beforehand so brazen lies is another.

So. Facts:
despite contracts were made out in the evening and written assurances to this day NO made of the outstanding payments. It met no money or transfer confirmations from a Peter Görbert. It was brought to a paying audience performances by Junior Boys and other (pre-sale 22, box office 13 €!) - And not compensated for it. It was announced by 2 beer and € 3.60 to € served. It has been consistently poor gossip for the music scene and its location in Vienna created.

I am involved in music events for 14 years and got to experience much, can and must - the "Indie Project" will probably remain so as the longer term, the most notable event in a negative interpretation.

Görbert like Peter as inexperienced operators, have been blue-eyed and naive - that one could forgive him and look, but now we are talking about nothing less than cheating - of bands, audience, such as technology suppliers and catering companies and agencies. He had his fair chance to trust him again but massively abused. Before further Try romp in the event management (he speaks of a renewed attempt Festival 2010) one must therefore all potential partners and advise against all himself.

Amadeus, Amadeus (2).

Yesterday, on 15 July coincided with the press conference for this year's Amadeus Awards the official start to the newly positioned, re-designed, Austrian music award. The first reactions to fall out very positive. The deliberately tried to integration, particularly the critics press, the Search dialogue with much more musical and theatrical groups than in the past - it all seems to bear fruit in its infancy.

nomination policy
In eight internationally comparable genre categories (Alternative / Rock, Electronic / Dance, Hard & Heavy, Hip-Hop / R & B, Jazz / World / Blues, Pop, Pop, Folk Music) This time (one in the first part treated in this series) a pre-selection jury assembled, may depend on the now "the people". In addition, there are categories in the collecting album and song two (mostly referred by judges) representative of each genre - a total of 16 nominations. Extra: The FM4 Award (running as before).

now you can stroll through the nominees list is actually quiet joy. The advocated diversity, the approach to the scenes, the valuing of artistic quality - all of which will take place and the organizing IFPI opened perhaps those learning process that ultimately ensures their survival (more on that later). Also, and just because 80% of the nominees perceived in the field of vibrant independent scene are clear.

The statue has a new, more modern, contemporary form. The website is quite befitting, provides information and a lot more meaningful content than their predecessors. Here, too, but fall to detail that is not quite in the spirit of what was communicated.

The voting.
It is crystal clear that the most difficult task of repositioning is to involve the public in general. The interest so far has been on amadeus-ending, now has to explain to the audience that it should allowed to vote differently than before, yes to. remains incomprehensible to me anyway, the mode and its logic: A total of six weeks only begins the voting process. can be tuned once a week (!). Shall take place via e-mail addresses and IP addresses. First attempt: Two e-mail aliases used, made two voting. The manipulation experiments, of course, opens the door. The desire to draw as much traffic to itself, might therefore be possible to exercise diametrically opposite to the will, transparency and fairness. I am very excited about the results and hope that - where it is already established, according to democracy - to achieve a fairly decent result is that concept. would

Small improvements to the site is also abound - just one example, instead of links to artist pages, opinion references, videos, download occasions (iTunes. ..) and clarified rights to full streams of the 30-second circumcision would be the least if one itself comes across as a future-oriented and webaffin.

SuperE The idea in itself, practical means of widgets to give everyone the opportunity to his blog, to be elected Web and Fansites happy, well above all the sponsor (which comes as everywhere) and the tech-savvy audience. Again, I hope that the effects are positive, the width of fitness will thus be in spite of integration of communication channels from today (Facebook, MySpace et al) probably not yet reached. What is missing this nature is a heavyweight media, teeming many potential people from the target groups.

dilemma
And here we come to a potential nuclear problem of the "well intentioned" Amadeus 2009: The scene involvement runs the risk of working on the "broad" public completely over and the Price certainly have to sink into insignificance. And why? Because it has no Austrian stars, with which they could make an identification. However, this so far has been the problem of the awards. Christina Stürmer the only real star is completely missing in the list of nominees, which will be taken depending on the respondent with incomprehension and amusement note.

Still, the move was necessary and perhaps the only correct one. The courage to take, the scenes in the public require, but in spite of all the Web 2.0 applications a media landscape that reproduced it.

Amadeus had in ten years I have never so much head-nodding nominations in the "pop" subject (and others) appreciated. It would be nice if the dominant media in this country would see the same houses and play, give the Amadeus the chance and time to gain real relevance. The result is at least to some extent also entstehbare international repute is the only slide, from the "Land of Music Austria" in fact make such a return. To be continued.

plenty provides the foundation. A mature and therefore soft and delicious, thinly sliced avocado I put a circle over it. A few pieces of medium-sized shrimp are seasoned with chili and salt and fried in the pan. Also this: zucchini carpaccio. With a vegetable peeler, cut thin slices can be gorgeous, which swung in a pan with olive oil and seasoned with pepper and salt. The lettuce is then mixed with warm ingredients, thus offering even the best basis for a little grated cheese , which now forms the ceiling.

When dressing, I take a teaspoon of Dijon mustard , the juice of half lemon , pepper and olive oil. Well-seasoned - maybe even with a diluted water tick - and carefully (spatter, with a small spoon) about it over the warm Salad with it. Delicious.

Koolhaas and his Seoul

The best Beads can be discovered by accident. When channel surfing in front Insbettgehen I see a Korean palace hang on CNN, and stay there sits Rem Koolhaas. His mark of world-famous architect and Harvard professor. And what does he do? First, a little while to blaspheme against the West, who understands him and hindered his art.

.

And then he leads the CNN reporter around "his Seoul. And this documentary shows, how to apply correctly Seoul. Not with smiling models and disgustingly expensive campaigns. It takes a world-renowned celebrities and let him talk about very personal aspects of Seoul. This leaves impression. I almost hope that the city Seoul has funded this interview will be broadcast worldwide.

.

As they are sitting in the garden of sweet Gyeonghuigung Palace before the Prada Transformer udn talk very informally about art. And that he can no longer work in the West and wants. There, you will, believe that a building forever, beautiful, disturbing and should not cost anything possible. That is consistent but his understanding of art in any way. Just as he can accept that to be condemned in the West functionality and rationality of a city without the opportunities and advantages of the "generic city" even to imagine. How true, how true!

.

And then are some more: his self-proclaimed pet project rather than the west lot of CCTV Center noticed in Beijing, but the Art Museum of Seoul National University, a building that seems to float above the campus and allows the passage between the Campus parts .

.

.
What would change Koolhaas in Seoul?
.
nothing. No matter where you change something, somewhere else will be built again. Seoul is not controllable, not planned - and that is his charm. He won praise explicitly specific projects that have tangible benefits for the city.

.

What is the character of the city?

.

exactly the constant change: There will always be quarter that develop, which always hang back - and more importantly: Seoul is not a planned city. Even in the center there will be more run-down cottage and even in the so-called poor areas there will always be glittering palaces. This leaves the city still mixed, always authentic and original. A very interesting point, I think that everyone can see every day on the road, but is rarely highlighted as a positive point. But I know in fact, no city in which ordinary people and upper-class Sun together, woven together act like in Seoul.

. Not

least, it was just functionality, despite the chaotic, confusing and unpredictable, which constitutes the charm of a city. This was in many Western cities have already wiped out almost completely. When I look at German Cities with their conservation rules look, I think I understand what is meant by Koolhaas.

.

What he prefers to Seoul, as an architect?

.

Koolhaas says that there is no other city with such a natural beauty. No matter how you build, you always have wonderful views, viewing angle and landscapes everywhere, so you always have a beginning and always planning for his guidance. There is the story that Koolhaas has reduced the large picture window in a lecture hall because he was afraid that all the people just outside the impressive mountain panorama and no one listens to the speakers noted.

.

What is build on in Korea so special?

.

freedom. Although he had also in Korea no Carte Blanche, are not able to spend $ 10,000,000 to open own pleasure. But, and this is very important to him: he can still change until the last minute details and deliver such a perfect result with which he is happy. This could not be outside of Asia.

.

All in all a really impressive man with few words and a calm manner, rather hearty arguments provides. And last but not least, you realize that the man knows Seoul really good. Definitely not the usual "I like to eat bulgogi, all Koreans are great" interview.

Amadeus, Amadeus.

every three to seven people who have wondered outside the "industry" this spring about the fact that no " Amadeus Austrian Music Award " took place, were assured: Does it still exist. (September 10) and later "entirely new". New team, new format and everything.

Mario Rossori who geschupft nine years of this great food with a previous transfer statuette was against a conglomerate around Gaissmaier Michi ("Heinz" singer) and Niko Alm (Super-Fi) replaced.

is now probably meant well to this change, a signal for a new start, restart or what always will be. Unless there is insight, I swing my opinion, based on this somewhat bold: Mario Rossori was a contractor of the organizer IFPI (the industry association) are often in trouble, according to the wishes and requirements of the old grandees of plants in this body. And - I speculate: They were not seldom rather quixotic. Great TV show with big international stars, great importance and great interest - as wish well and good, but as a reality would be The play about the attempt of SV Mattersburg, Champions League. There was a lack of real substance rather in the (national) Pop-trade - something the industry itself bears the principal.

The new team, however, has used the start-up bonus and long enough "fresh start" initiative, until they were given exactly that. Therefore, the "new" Amadeus has also deserves a fair chance. Generally positive, the omission of international categories that were neither in Germany nor for this world, Shakira and Pink's any weight or meaning. Consequently the positive intention, increased attention to "artistically valuable" productions and a slightly wider range of genre division.

One or devil is in the details. So far, the five from the respective categories of nominees with their charts and selling securities "legitimized" in order to face in the wake of a 400-member industry panel, which really sometimes a little strange-looking lists without (the jurors) relevant representatives of the victorious have determined.

will now determine each 20 "experts" five nominees in their respective genres - I "may" even as one of the elect in the jury "Alternative / Rock" Select. Then engages the audience and selects the winner via Internet voting. The process was then reversed in a certain way - and is therefore a reckless compromise.

Man avoids a real "Critics Award" to be, probably to forestall the argument that it binds the audience not. The audience, however, is without a TV Partner (as it looks now) in any case difficult in amounts to be a co-moving (which is a shame in any case). And it is well know with the critics list, in some cases as little start, as it did with the Branchenfuzzis of teenagers in the scoring singles purchased artificial pop starlet of little artistic importance.

addition, the jury course, again a very close level committee, but no real decision makers. And it is not a jury of critics, but rather a reflection of the industry itself - ie only a limited form of "old" jury. Why should I sit as a directly interested party, as a representative of artists in this genre in this jury and may, mine is a classic Austrian mystery. Colleagues are probably represented by friendly label - but that just makes it strange: Select Tactically for its "own" artist? They deliberately leave out, even though they are "neutral" thought was the best? No, these thoughts should have no role to play - in fact, the judgments should be left to journalists and experts "from outside".

The genre distribution is perhaps the last remaining balance of the past practice to surrender to the market power. While pop songs and folk music are two separate genres, that distinction can be seen from the list of jury members (there are 90% the same), not to offend the little Jazz / World / Blues Group deal on a giant conglomeration in their genre. The problem is so far the (again, to be well-intentioned) freedom, that the jury members decide what they "their" genre would assign.

mid-July we will already know a bit more, then the nominee (that is, the results of jury votes) announced, then the public gets into the ring. Without much TV marketing and such, but with a focus on co-determination through Web 2.0 applications. But for a second time more. I will naturally developing process of this renewed Austrian Music Award follow closely and comment.

all or nothing.

I'm just at the invitation of Popbüros Baden-Wuerttemberg in Stuttgart to here as part of the annual "Pop Open" with colleagues from Switzerland and Germany on the "360-degree model to discuss .

I was not sure from the beginning whether I should therefore rather flattered or offended - after all, I was here as an obvious advocate and practicing these "evil", big new ultimate model of the music industry hergesetzt.

The 360 ° model - a misunderstanding
Accordingly, I have in the course of the discussion revealed my business model and explained the matter as it really is in my view. We quickly agreed that it is the "360 model" for any well-defined somewhat differently. In summary one can say that the money in one place is just to understand above all the major record companies that they need to get somewhere else, if they are to survive. This is of course legitimate, since no one looks happy to stand by as his business dies and is waiting gleefully for death.

The foreign word sustainability.
The problem of the "Great" is not their business strategy (to get by and by merchandising companies or booking agencies in the boat), but is far deeper. And competition from neighboring areas such as event planning their increasingly dominant role understands it and rather than take-over (and in turn buys record companies). Thus companies like Live Nation laced suddenly all-inclusive packages for Madonna and leave their former record companies look stupid from washing.

Like so many other examples in the brave new digital world the example can not on the small business or break down the little band. For a very important question here is: Who makes it in the future for innovation, product development, artist development?

have taken in the 80s and 90s, nor the record companies a lot of money in hand to create with exorbitant sums of marketing a "brand", so there was no longer possible due to the shift of the market. If "build artists' Live Nation?

Anders.
And here comes the model into the game, which we operate. I do not like the degree thing at all, rather prefer a term such as "artist development and support. " We allow artists, of which we are convinced, publishing panels - and continue to serve primarily as a way to exist with the media. The media work in the positive case reporting, etc. airplay brings with it helps strengthen to create the brand positioning. In addition to airplay sales caused the author and publisher so that side - and of course it offers a strong case to include the artist on a stage. Even this money makers, the live segment, the side effect that he also plays the author and publisher to the account.

All these are parts that have a "developed" Artists often or almost normally to various partners who mitnaschen has outsourced. Now if this whole complex in one hand, the major risks - but also greater opportunities. The total volume that we are able to invest, because of the many participation opportunities greater than we would cover only a part. This capital is controlled from a single source, it can also be used much more focused and controlled, an overall strategy and not be subordinated to the interests of a "record company", a "booking agency" or anyone else to be sacrificed. The point is that the artist has developed as a brand on - this is achieved, benefit all (and in fact: it does not succeed, we sit the first-ever in trouble, just because much has been invested - a terrific pressure for ourselves).

The elimination of intermediate agencies wastage reduced by an artist in communication - consumer, which is ultimately what is essential. The largest is a negative point, however the emergence of a huge dependency - but there is a misconception, one would think that existed in other scenarios, such as against a record company not (apart from that we have mechanisms that attempt to mitigate this problem).

paradigm shift.
And this is the essence of the Stuttgart discussion at. In the "golden age" of the record companies dominance, there were restrictive contracts with long, long bond, the A & R was king of the world, all knew well, threw out his wallet and left the artist's sense of omnipotence. The money rushing (in a positive case), the artist was a "product" - and thus a subject with which you worked.

shaped by these experiences, the music industry has completely forgotten who the real capital is in this game: the artist. Understanding this, to respect the artists and take in a position like mine back and understand first and foremost as a service - because their structures and the big firms fail much more than about the evil downloaders at the computer.

The fear of democracy.
The money in the music industry is still there, it is just distributed differently. And the "old" companies get scared because the dogma crumbles of its market power to define. Computer and Internet appliances as potentially largest democracy in human history, artists have self-made bolder. Even produce even publish market them - this is possible today - and of course a massive cut in the seats said "old" industry. Omniscience and possibility of the majors is a story of yesterday. Yet no one is

- and shows my experience, unfortunately, least of all artists - with know-how and networks born, "make yourself" so of course it works now only up to one (or the other way again until a) certain point. We sit as a "music workers" at a critical spot, to help where the imparting of know-how, the integration in decision-making processes, enabling a further step is the focus.

power conversion.
The artist, who uses his office and says "I want to be a star" to wait in the episode, what is done with him, is as of yesterday. On the contrary, he must be an active part in this model. He maintains his social networks, he is the only one who can provide authentic, where to go the journey. So he is, please! Labels, publishers, bookers - will they still play their part, who now make just a little different manner than it was fifteen years ago. The Times They Are A Changing. The people around him, the "experts" to take the "professional", the economic part of this mission, but they are mainly companions, perhaps Directory.

grow this new image of the artist needs to build and in the minds of industry people Find a place - and, if you will allow me: It is high time. A bond like this is certainly require enormous confidence and a great desire for fairness. That held in small cells like ours a lot easier to manage and control is beyond doubt. And as a Swiss colleague noted, this is the hardest part, because the industry has learned how to cheat each other until everyone finds it normal to cheat too.

White Worm On My Cat?

Obama. The

Now he's really President.
Everywhere is told of a new era and the historical moment - and even so many analysts get cool in the face of reports and events around the inauguration of the 44th American head of state goosebumps.

Anyway. In this country interferes in the sometimes rather strange-looking euphoria and the classic wail: Obama shall drop just in front of pathos and symbolism, the expectations will be but may never meet, never, he is after all only a puppet in the theater of the same actors as before, the hype about his person, his daughters, the fashion of his wife, his BlackBerry, his future dog and his cook is covered, terrible and free of any significance - and so on.

But this whining is just opposite, Obama with everything he has: his oratory (and the speech writers and PR consultants, which have made him even before the area code and presidential election winner).

only human
If you approach it as such think about politics and gently removed from the naive idea that a man / woman could "do the job" to make (alone) and everything depended on him / her is from, clear: He / She is the bearer of news, the seller. He may prescribe a different route, or have ideas, but ultimately it is always a large staff of people who have to decide. And yes, even politicians are only human. Even Barack Obama is not a godsend Messiah - he in his rough oath (which he could not remember it) it a bit embarrassing has demonstrated.

But people like to hope they do just in crisis situations, a shoulder to lean on, a figure looking up to, a savior, a leader. This can be very dangerous, as history has taught us that can also be a great opportunity. What makes people like Obama to such a figure, but essentially only: Speech skill.

fear or confidence.
Obama knows what an important role, "the head" plays. He finds confirmation in the current state of the economy - a crisis that was caused by the head ("Fantasy" transactions) and in the mind (fear) is growing. Why should not they also meet the head (hope, confidence) can?

Anxious people give in times like these no money and not drive the economy. Confident, positive, hopeful people (was ... even the Washington-tourism to the inauguration ceremony shown that) already. The mediated feeling that everyone would get a "better world" for which recovery can do for the change and has experienced a revival. Kennedy once said, "Ask not what the state can do for you, ask what you can do for the state." Obama translated that formula in the rhetorical modern times.

The neocons of the Bush Administration have the thesis "The people are stupid "worked along. They did not therefore be easy to make them afraid to give them the same fool who protect them and can take revenge on the grounds of fear (terrorists). The domestic consumption and patriotism (and should therefore . the quasi-dependence on military and their mostly Republican leaders and whisperers drive) The principle alone is the choice of words "Fear & Consumption leave because of unflattering memories

Obama turns the tables and say. Okay, if people actually stupid (or sell yourself as a fool can), then we drive them at least with hope and confidence to use. And of course it needs to show and rhetoric, a bit of glamor and NLP as a means to an end. The critics and whiners so I wonder, is it not legitimate to use the "arms" of the "dark" side in order to bring about something positive?

Monster
A bit reminiscent of the whole, the animation "Monsters., Inc." , at the terrifying monsters of children's nights in and gain little scared - because their cry is an energy provider, is the "power to the monster-center. At the end, it turns out that this also works with jokes and the laughter of children generated energy - and even much more.

I have have occasion picked the inauguration old inaugural speeches on Youtube and found that a George Bush, Bill Clinton, a John F. Kennedy or Ronald Reagan, are essentially of change, of renewal, of new beginnings and of change talk - and thus qualifies Obama's speech to the good. The difference was, this speech was recorded and received.

And that brings me back to the point: The power of words is a sometimes significantly under-estimated. To understand it, you have to get out but ultimately only two examples from history: Jesus, too, was ultimately "just" a brilliant orator. He has no doubt that much effect. And then there was in the last century still the man from Braunau with the funny beard. What is known about the person himself actually leads to the conclusion: He was in itself just a classic loser with crude ideas. He was unfortunately also a rousing speaker.

The power of words is a sometimes significantly under-estimated. May
Obama and his team use them properly.

2008. Indiana

It is too late and the time that 2008 can happen again soon to review. That's just part before the spiritual state, to the completely new year - to pay - the last of the first decade of the millennium. I write mainly for myself once, but you are cordially invited, think along and to argue about the events anno-2008th Already at low temporal distance that is "left over" here.

oil, real estate, credit cards.
The oil price is consistent with its absurd price rally - first in the summer to over 140 dollars, Last but under 40 - for the ever escalating farce called global economy. But that has fallen sharply on the nose - and the fairly neutral observer, a dose of schadenfreude sometimes not hide. She has in recent years increasingly turned to speculation in order to Finanzjongliererei and betting on matches, and counted the endless consumer lust of a humanity that even in the truth can not afford. And thus fails at times this seemingly perverse system on its own arrogance, naivety and greed. As a result confirmed ethical and moral no-Na-lessons from the last few hundred years of human history. The first principle of reading in university business courses should therefore continue as Goethe's Faust .

Fritzl, Haider, Obama.
More head shaking? But please be beaten is that the economic value erosion in the human and emotional level, demonstrates the Lower Austrian town of Amstetten, its notoriety, it owes a madman. The unimaginable of Actions of Josef Fritzl , the size of the universe seem almost tangible. On the other side of the Alps shows a politician's "humanity" on almost tragicomic way: use the 1.8 per thousand, 142km / h and the corresponding history into a road sign lawn and afterwards sent as a quasi-saint in heaven to be the Carinthian, that requires a Joerg Haider . As we stood to him too, "an impact" this figure in the local politics was always - not least in his last great campaign for the parliamentary election 2008 - which is less evocative and has finally just "more of the same" position. Quite different in the U.S., where Barack with Obama a perfectly communicated and communicating shining light was elected president. He will have to use its tons of laurels rather than stirrups than a pillow to himself, to his country and around the world are a small percentage of what is expected of him - and it is hoped that he thereby succeeds. Be that as it may: Three people, will be available in many different ways for a long time with the year 2008 and its related events.

€, Olympia, cabbage.
In sports as well once I peck out three events that were formative: the European Soccer Championships in Austria - supported by Hopes and expectations of sport as an economic nature - was in all these respects, Austria and finally typical: Somehow, eh ok, if you look closer a disappointment. The Olympics in Beijing, I noticed only in passing, but the framing of the picture was just due to the Chinese version of modern communism - the impressions of my stay in Vietnam's december were frighteningly similar. How can the public to foolhardy Sport (ler) be (can) finally showed a certain Bernhard Kohl . Maybe he has red spots on his jersey that he has taken during the Tour de France, held for measles - which is why his body Drugs supplied that are not as real to the blood of a cyclist. Whether system error perpetrators or victims: Who cares really?

Hansi Lang, Christian Moser, Heath Ledger.
that differ with age and more people from the environment of life is sad as a logical fact. 2008 but there were deaths in the immediate vicinity, were not particularly old and really young people that are missing in the future. Somewhat related was the mourning for Christoph Moser (who just had an accident there just before I left for Vietnam), the longtime head of sales Hoanzl and one of the most important figures in the Austrian music scene. Tragic as the death of Hansi Lang was (stroke in the studio) or Heath Ledger ("accidental" drug overdose in the course of work on "The Dark Knight"). A much too long list of "public" deaths Hermes has created.

Kid Rock, Jason Mraz, Chinese Democracy.
Musically the music developed more and more Yesterday - or it falls over the age of 30 simply easier to what you have already heard everything in life. The Trendheischer still play 80 fat - goes in the photos, the flyers, the pants and skirts, and the music itself, the truly creative material but from them. The great innovator you are looking for 2008 rather vain, acts such as MGMT or Hot Chip were instrumental, but already last year predicted as such (see Review 2007). The world is waiting for hip accordingly on an aggressive outbreak á la grunge in order to free themselves from the more and more into Campy-enhancing. The world economic crisis is more likely to have more fat and pop color - yet: If 2009th

approach was at least as far as '08, the revival of the trivial Techno Schlager - a first harbinger of the revival of the early 90's. "Three days awake" , anyone? Also strange duet constellations are known from this period - Alicia Keys & Jack White was it not two years ago as quickly assumed the same song, James Bond and the EURO has (ultimately "Seven Nation Army" with a couple of years late literally brought stadium suitability and Mr. White unintentionally as reluctantly in the first mainstream League catapults) having the effect. remain

from the "real" charts somewhat left of the big commercial union, the Kid Rock is landed with his zusammengefladerten number "All Summer Long" (best-selling single of the year), or since the first Coca Cola Song eight p.m. years, which again topped the charts (Jason Mraz ' "I'm Yours" ); of late but was recognition boost Amy Winehouse (best-selling album in Austria in 2008: the almost two years old "Back to Black" ), whose free-rider Duffy ("Mercy"), and probably also the annoying, but cleverly marketed Braves T-macht-on-bad-girl-Katy Perry noodle ( "I Kissed A Girl" ).

Austrian gives more and more attention and now it is eating properly at all corners and ends. However, if we do ever that Ö3 here, a little more courage, not only to the (now containing a whit more) draws average stuff, but remains questionable. I predict yet the big "explosion" of one or the other acts 2009th

least my personal earwigs of this strange year, but not limited to, genius or massive artistic specialty.
