Neue Gema-Tarife: Bayerischer Rundfunk stellt “Space Night” ein

Aus für die "Space Night": Die Sendung des Bayerischen Rundfunks, die zuletzt auf dem digitalen Spartenkanal BR Alpha lief, verschwindet ganz aus dem Programm. Grund für die Einstellung ist laut Zuschauerservice die Umstellung der Gema-Tarife fürs Fernsehen. Das Blog "The Research Institute" veröffentlichte die Antwort. ... Es dürfte die öffentlich-rechtliche TV-Sendung mit dem höchsten Anteil von Zuschauern unter dem Einfluss illegaler Rauschmittel sein. Warum der Bayerische Rundfunk nicht bereit ist, für die "Space Night" höhere Gema-Gebühren zu entrichten, konnte der Sender zunächst nicht erklären. Unklar blieb zunächst auch, warum der Sender für die musikalische Untermalung der "Space Night" nicht auf Gema-freie Musik setzt.

The Lion Smokes Tonight

Snoop and Doctor Dina have collaborated to grow a practical strain just for him, one that he can smoke all day long without getting too zonked, and that's what we're looking at right now. Dina explains that it contains more Cannabis sativa than Cannabis indica, which ought to help keep Snoop from falling asleep during photo shoots. Snoop will later christen it "Snoop Lion Executive Branch."

Soul Men: The Making of The Blues Brothers

The pitch was simple: “John Belushi, Dan Aykroyd, Blues Brothers, how about it?” But the film The Blues Brothers became a nightmare for Universal Pictures, wildly off schedule and over budget, its fate hanging on the amount of cocaine Belushi consumed. From the 1973 meeting of two young comic geniuses in a Toronto bar through the careening, madcap production of John Landis’s 1980 movie, Ned Zeman chronicles the triumph of an obsession.

Rückblick: 15 Jahre Feiern in der Hauptstadt

Die ersten paar Jahre war die Bar 25 noch ein ziemlich entspannter Ort mit peaciger Tür, trotzdem war der Laden der reine Rave-Alb, denn hier lag das Epizentrum der Miminalpest, die in den ersten Jahren des neuen Jahrtausends Angst und Schrecken über die Tanzflächen brachte: Unverdünnte Langeweile zu vershuffelt ausgebremsten Rhythmen. In der Bar tuckerte die Einfallslosigkeit in bassfreier Kofferradioqualität oft tagelang traurig vor sich hin, ohne dabei groß aufzufallen, vielleicht weil die Bar-25-Crowd durchs Musikhören über schepprige Laptoplautsprecher abgestumpft war, bestimmt weil es in diesem Club sowieso nicht um die Musik oder ums Raven ging, sondern um alberne Verkleidungen, schultheaterhafte Rollenspielchen und multitoxische Hirnerweichung, egal was, egal wie, Hauptsache mal die banale Tristesse der real existierenden Kreativklasse verdrängen. Weshalb die Unendlichkeit der Bar-25-Wochenenden, die sich gerne zäh und lustlos in den Dienstag schleppten, auch kein Ausdruck überbordender Lebensfreude waren, sondern kollektive Realitätsverweigerung mit Konfetti, Glitzer und Verstand im Ketamin-Erdloch ersäufen.

Joy Division

Joy Division is a 2007 British documentary film on the British post-punk band Joy Division. The film assembles TV clips, newsreel, pictures of modern Manchester and Manchester in the late 1970s, and interviews. Filmmaker Grant Gee speaks with now-deceased Factory Records founder Tony Wilson; legendary producer Martin Hannett; surviving Joy Division band members Bernard Sumner, Stephen Morris, and Peter Hook; and the late Ian Curtis's Belgian lover Annik Honoré in order to offer a vivid snapshot of the fleeting moment in time when Manchester's Joy Division changed the face of modern music.

Kano vs Wiley (Lord Of The Mics 1)

Kano first became known in the UK grime scene for his work with his original group, N.A.S.T.Y. Crew. From this springboard he was signed as a solo artist and began work on his debut solo album Home Sweet Home. He went up against Wiley on Lord of the Mics 1 in one of the most recognised grime clashes, despite only being 17 at the time and after being persuaded by Jammer, a well-known grime MC and producer.

Toxik trifft MC Basstard – Die Geschichte von Berlin Crime

MC Basstards Werdegang ist unweigerlich verknüpft mit der Gruppe BC - Berlin Crime, denn seit dem 15 Lebensjahr übernahm die Gang seine Erziehung, zumindest lautet so eine Textzeile aus dem Lied "Gehasst von vielen". Über den heutigen Hauptmann und Autoren Arye Shalicar alias Boss Aro kam der junge MC Basstard zu BC, außerdem verleihte Aro dem Tun der Jungs Struktur, lehrte sie gehorsam und Loyalität. So formierte sich mit der Zeit rund um Basstard, Mc Bogy, Manny Marc und Frauenarzt die Gruppe Berlin Crime. Eine Truppe aus Berliner Jungs die gemeinsam abhingen, malen gingen und um die Häuser zogen.

Winamp’s woes: how the greatest MP3 player undid itself

MP3s are so natural to the Internet now that it’s almost hard to imagine a time before high-quality compressed music. But there was such a time—and even after "MP3" entered the mainstream, organizing, ripping, and playing back one's music collection remained a clunky and frustrating experience. Enter Winamp, the skin-able, customizable MP3 player that "really whips the llama's ass." In the late 1990s, every music geek had a copy; llama-whipping had gone global, and the big-money acquisition offers quickly followed. AOL famously acquired the company in June 1999 for $80-$100 million—and Winamp almost immediately lost its innovative edge.

After Exile, Career Reset – Earl Sweatshirt Is Back From the Wilderness

Much of the early Odd Future buzz centered around Earl Sweatshirt, whose video for “Earl” was a teen-rebel fantasia of drug use and other misbehavior. A provocateur with a dry wit and an outrageously dexterous gift for wordplay, he was a clear inheritor of Eminem’s macabre humor and Lil Wayne’s dyspeptic logorrhea. He was a savvy, schooled rapper: gross, entrancing and thrilling. And also one of the only pop mysteries left. By the time Odd Future began performing and doing interviews, he was nowhere to be seen. In a time of Internet-speed information flood, Earl Sweatshirt’s absence — he was sent to Samoa by his mother — a striking rarity.

50 Cent, Mobb Deep & Tony Yayo – Disco Inferno, Outta Control & So Seductive (MTV VMA 2005)

The 50 Cent-Fat Joe beef heated up at the MTV Video Music Awards. The words started when Fat Joe was presenting an award and ended with: "I just wanna say how safe I feel in here tonight with all of this police presence courtesy of G-Unit." Later in the night, 50 Cent was ending his set of “So Seductive” with Tony Yayo when the pair unleashed a bevy of expletives on Fat Joe. The high standards of MTV prevented most of the content from getting through and it was censored. What made it through was something like this: “Fat Joe is a pussy. Fuck Fat Joe. He is a Fuckboy. What? What?” A couple sentences were completely blanked out.
