Von Magnet is a theatre music band originated from the post-industrial〔(review Ni Prédateur Ni Proie ) Heathen Harvest, 1 April 2009. by Perceptron〕 musical current from the 80’s. Founded in 1985 in London, the group gathered around Flore Magnet〔(review De L'Aimant ) Atraktos.net, 27 January 2005. by Georgos Galanis〕 (stage direction, actions, vocals) and Phil Von〔(review Suvmi Holeg Spies under Von Magnet influence ) OUIM.org, 21 July 2006〕 (composition, feet percussion, vocals) initiating a style of their own which they named "Electroflamenco". Becoming rapidly well known in the underground〔(review De L'Aimant ) Side Line Music Magazine, 28 June 2005〕 because of their new approach to electronic music, firstly by incorporating the bases of flamenco〔(review Electroflamenco ) by Marc Urselli / Chain D.L.K〕(rhythms, dances and melodies) then later adding influences of Middle Eastern music.〔(review Ni Prédateur Ni Proie ) by Judas Kiss〕 This electronic ethnic〔(review Ni Prédateur Ni Proie ) Compulsion Online〕 mix, often referred to as "expressionist" or even tribal〔(review Ni Prédateur Ni Proie ) Side Line Music Magazine, 8 January 2009〕 music, features also references to contemporary and cinematographic soundscapes,〔(review De L'Aimant ) by Marcus Pan / Legends Magazine〕 (Andreï Tarkovski, John Cassavetes, Carlos Saura, Amos Gitai, etc.). Their compositions, either instrumental or vocal melodramas, poetic, lyrical, cabaret crooning are sang or spoken in different languages; English, Spanish, French, and also in Arabic, German, Turkish or Russian. Since 1985, even before the "Computer music" era, they experimented within the likes of the post-industrial musical movement (Greater Than One, Cabaret Voltaire, SPK, Coil...) using intensive sound collage and sampling techniques. This work will give birth to their motto: "Sample us as we have already sampled you". Although strongly focused around the music component, the peculiarity of Von Magnet is to endeavour the recurrent relationship between theatrical actions, dance as well as visual or performance arts, resulting in the creation of "staged" concerts.〔( Manifestation for the Unstable Media 2 ) Performance by Von Magnet in V2 's Hertogenbosch Netherlands.1988〕 These multidisciplinary performances〔(review Ni Prédateur Ni Proie ) Headphone Commute〕 bring together musicians, actors, dancers, sculptors, video artists... destabilizing the codes or the staging conventions, the musicians become acting characters whereas the dancers/actors are bound to participate in live sound creation. ==History== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Von Magnet」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
