![]() On the verse, the music is linear and flowing, never moving up or down by more than a note or two at a time. But it's not just a matter of mood there's also a difference between the way the two melodies flow. Part of what made "Sunny Came Home" such a striking single was the contrast between those two elements, the dark, simmering verse and the bright, soaring chorus. ![]() But she came up with the that we used, and it was so much better." "Like 'Sunny Came Home.' If my memory serves me correctly, I had the melody for the verse, and another melody for the chorus. "I invariably have a melody line, but boy, can she come up with some great ones," he says. "She has a real personal vision as a lyricist, and her songs have to resonate from a really true place in her."īoth Colvin and Leventhal have input on the melodies, however. "I serve as her editor and soundboard for her lyrics," says Leventhal. Generally, when the two wrote together, Leventhal would provide the music - the chords, the beat and the general shape of the song - while Colvin took care of the words. "The objective was to create radio-friendly songs our own way. So when she teamed up again with Leventhal for "A Few Small Repairs" - they'd kept writing together, but he hadn't produced her since "Steady On" - she knew that there had to be some singles potential in her songs. "What that record really did for me was, it left me craving a fun time in the studio," she says. "Every Little Thing" didn't get Colvin onto the charts, but she had fun. "That was not apparent to me by that point." So she went back into the studio, and cut a slick, radio-ready remake of the Police hit, "Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic," changing the "She" to "He." Duhhhh!" She chuckles self-deprecatingly. "I was still finding out that when you release a record, the record company wants a single. Colvin had forgotten one tiny detail: The album needed a designated hit. "I knew the songs, and half of it was going to be live," she says. She didn't really begin to enjoy recording until 1994, when she made her third album, "Cover Girl." The idea behind the album was simple enough - Colvin would cut a dozen "covers," or songs that had been originally recorded by other artists - and the execution was a breeze. I lost perspective, and didn't want to hear the music after it was done. "There was a lot of looking very, very closely at every little detail of the music," she says. It's enough to make anyone self-conscious.Ĭolvin hated it. Instead, you're faced with darkness, solitude and the merciless accuracy of recording tape. ![]() There is no audience vibe to play off, no fans in front to cheer encouragement. ![]() The recording studio has made more than a few musicians uneasy. "So there was a lot of angst, and a lot of second-guessing, and a lot of anxiety about, 'Is it any good?' " "It was the first record for both of us, for me as a producer and for her as an artist," he explains. He had been writing songs with Colvin for several years by the time he was hired to produce "Steady On," and initially hoped that their shared perspective and experience would make the recording process fairly painless. "The first record we made was very difficult to make," agrees John Leventhal.

6/23/2023 0 Comments We need to go deeper![]() The puzzles in Superliminal all revolve around your first-person viewpoint, and you have to figure out what elements of each environment you can manipulate. To get through the game, you're told to view things from a different perspective-although it might be more accurate to say that the game is about taking your existing perspectives and reconceptualizing them. It's like Portal's puzzle chambers crossed with the dream spaces of Inception (and a hint of Alice in Wonderland too), but despite those clear influences Superliminal feels like its own thing. Things go wrong fast, though you take a wrong turn and stumble deeper into a dream state than was intended, and the deeper you go, the further your surroundings shift from a recognizable reality. The whole game is set within your medically induced dream as the program probes your subconscious, asking you to complete a series of challenges to find peace of mind and overcome feelings of inadequacy and self-doubt. Glenn Pierce, one who is undergoing the Somnasculpta sleep therapy program. Superliminal offers a short, enjoyable run through a subconscious in crisis, and it's a consistently clever and pleasantly challenging game with a lot on its virtual mind. For all its confusing geometry, strange logic, and growing unease, it's ultimately an optimistic and satisfying experience. Superliminal is about dreams and dream-logic, and represents a sort of nightmare itself, but it's a different kind from the ones I've experienced. With the world in disarray as a pandemic threatens our safety and wellbeing, I know that I am not alone in seeing a heavy uptick in nightmares, including dreams about death, disease, and general distress. ![]() In 2020, it's been harder than ever to have a truly good night's sleep. 6/23/2023 0 Comments Lenina thought train![]() What does Helmholtz say his society needs?

Hymnen («stjernesangen»), som er en del av verket, har blitt en viktig sang for nasjonen Finland.Īufnahme / Recording:Tales and Myths of Gothia - Demo Tracks 2018-2019 Tonediktet ble komponert i årene 1899-1900, og verket ble et viktig nasjonalt symbol for Finland i deres uavhengighetskamp mot det russiske imperiet. 26 By Jean Sibelius, Sakari Oramo, City Of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra. Jean Sibelius (1865-1957) er uten tvil Finlands fremste og internasjonalt mest berømte komponist, og Finlandia er et av hans mest kjente og elskede verk. Find the key and tempo for Sibelius: Finlandia, Op. The tone poem Finlandia (1899-1900) played an important role in this part of Finnish history, and the hymn has become an important song to the Finnish people. Indeed, Finlandia is a clear precursor to the composer's symphonies, in which the orchestra so often assumes the role of an ever-strengthening, defiant juggernaut.The Finnish composer Jean Sibelius (1865-1957) is widely recognized as his country's greatest composer, and through his music he helped Finland to develop a national identity during its struggle for independence from the Russian empire. Most famous, though, is a hymn-like theme which makes its first appearance in an atmosphere of quiet reverence by the end of the work, it has become a powerful statement of triumph. The work opens with a questioning, vaguely ominous brass progression that evokes the "powers of darkness" from Topelius' text, setting off a colorful drama that is at turns reflective, jubilant, and militant. ![]() Because of censorship restrictions, the work was most often performed under the not-altogether-apt title Impromptu until Finland gained independence following World War I. Jean Sibelius, Valse Triste (orch.Herbert von Karajan) Finlandia, The Nordic Male Choir Festival in Harpa Reykjavík Concert Hall, May 14th 2016. Dei apelativul în cadrul familiei era 'Janne', pe timpul studeniei, acesta începe s foloseasc versiunea francez a numelui su. Following the suggestion of his artistic confidant Axel Carpelan, he retitled this rousing patriotic essay Finlandia since that time, the work has virtually become Finland's second national anthem. Johan Julius Christian Sibelius, cunoscut sub numele de 'Jean Sibelius', s-a nscut într-o familie vorbitoare de suedez în Hämeenlinna, Marele Principat al Finlandei din cadrul Imperiului arist. Innocuously titled Music for Press Ceremony, the score concluded with "Finland Awakens," which Sibelius reworked into an independent symphonic poem in the following year. Sibelius extracted six tableaux from his melodrama for a performance intended to provide a celebratory end to the gathering on November 4. While its ostensible purpose was to raise money for newspaper pension funds, it was in fact a front for rallying support for a free press at a time when the czarist hold on the country was tightening. The following month saw a fund-raising gala organized by the Finnish press. In October of that year, Sibelius composed a melodrama to Finnish writer Zachria Topelius' poem The Melting of the Ice on the Ulea River, which is marked by a particularly patriotic fervor "I was born free and free will I die" is typical of its sentiments, and one of which Sibelius took particular note. Finlandia is a rousingly patriotic work, at first quiet, unsure, almost threatening, a depiction of the czarist darkness engulfing Finland. There is an excellent performance of this Work in Finish by Ylioppilaskunnan Laulajat - YL Male Voice Choir - on YouTube. Russia imposed a strict censorship policy on the small nation in 1899. Jean Sibelius, born Johan Julius Christian Sibelius (8 December 1865 20 September 1957), was a Finnish composer and violinist of the late Romantic and early-modern periods. Jean Sibelius' Finlandia became the composer's most enduring work in part because of the political climate in Finland at the time of its creation. 6/22/2023 0 Comments W nike flare 2 hc![]() The traction is one of the main focuses of this shoe as well, and that’s ensured by the durable rubber outsole.

After all, Graves is a jack-of-all-trades type of champion. The champions Graves can not compete against in League of Legends games are the ones that actually make use of the lethality items better than he, have a healthier clear or a better map presence. Rounding off Graves's build in the late game, are assassin utility items. Namely, those that give a way t secure kills, pierce armor or survive mage bursts. Instead, it consists of an Umbral Glaive, Plated Steelcaps, and Eclipse. ![]() In the mid-game, your core build should be ready, and, unlike other champions, the first buy is not one of the Mythic Items. Best Starter Graves ItemsĪs a jungler, Graves's starting item is naturally Emberknife, with a Refillable Potion. With Graves not having multiple bullets, and his physical damage reduced to only two, he is one of them, as they is the only way to quickly burst down an enemy champion. With the current meta in constant flux, some ranged champions have taken to lethality instead of critical strike items to boost their performance. It can quite easily clear entire team fights. His R - Collateral Damage, deals massive damage in a cone to all enemies. It's an incredibly useful ability, utility-wise, in a team fight as well as in a 1v1.Īnd, as always, Graves's ultimate is the ability whose damage always catches us off guard. Its main usage is as a crowd control ability, and not for its magic damage, as the enemies caught in its AoE completely lose vision of what is happening in the game, as well as get slowed. It's the last ability to be leveled and maxed. It's the first ability to be maxed on Graves, as it's his main way of dealing damage to enemy champions, with an explosive shell no less, aside from his auto attacks of course.įinally, besides Graves's ultimate, we have his W -Smoke Screen. However, it's the second ability to be maxed on Graves though, and is used for outplays, early, more than the resistances.Īfter that, the next ability in his skill order is his Q - End of the Line. The first ability to level on Graves, out of his skill order, is his E - Quickdraw. On the other hand, the only way to get any worthwhile experience from the jungle, is by taking the Smite Summoner spell, which is non-negotiable for any jungler. Flash is a must-have when playing Graves, as Flash is, without a doubt, the best Summoner Spell in the game, overall. When it comes to Summoner Spells, there are only a few champions who are managing League of Legends trials, without using Flash. Best Graves Rune ShardsĪs a champion with a high focus on damage, his Rune shards are a reflection of it, with both attack speed and Adaptive Force damage in the mix.Īs Graves has no laning phase and is a jungle, his defensive option is always armor, to make his clear healthier. And as a ganking jungler, both are easy to stack. On the other hand, the domination tree runes are meant to boost hi early-game gold income, and stat scaling as quickly as possible. For that, the best rune set is Precision, with the Fleet Footwork keystone, followed by the usual Triumph, Legend Alacrity, and Coup de Grace, which all damage carries use. Best Graves RunesĪs a ranged jungle, Graves jungle must always be on the move, whether it's kiting camps or killing enemy champions. So, his runes all reflect the use of the best of both worlds. Graves is one of the few ranged jungle champions, who still boasts an amazing tankiness due to his passive. ![]() These are the best Graves build, runes, spells, items League of Legends can offer him, as well as his greatest counters.
