Stanton (2nd try) Walter O. Stanton, the inventor of an easily replaceable phonograph stylus that was crucial to creating a consumer market for audio equipment, died on Monday, April 16, 2001, in Palm Beach Gardens, Fla. He was 86. In the late 1940's Mr. Stanton's slide-in stylus made it possible for users to replace a needle assembly when it wore out, instead of having to send it back to the factory. Audiophiles snapped them up for home use, and the invention became one of the basics in phonograph cartridge design. But Mr. Stanton was as much a salesman as he was an engineer. In 1950, he bought Pickering & Company, the audio component manufacturer that first sold his patented stylus. A decade later he founded another company, Stanton Magnetics, which was one of the first American companies to make and sell magnetic cartridges that improved sound quality and allowed for a less-expensive product in the 1970's. Both companies had operations in Plainview, N.Y., and West Palm Beach, Fla. Rather than selling the phonograph as one big console, Mr. Stanton was one of the first to separate the electronics, the turntable and the cartridges and sell them separately to consumers. To do that effectively, he prodded the major manufacturers to arrive at standards for the mounting systems for cartridges and the type of recording on vinyl records. He served as president of the Audio Engineering Society and was inducted into the Audio Hall of Fame, family members said. In his effort to broaden the market for audio components, Mr. Stanton helped found the Institute of High Fidelity, whose annual trade shows in Manhattan attracted crowds of gadget lovers. In 1967, complaining that too many homeowners still thought of audio equipment as "assorted pieces of gear lying about connected by all kinds of wires," he set up five rooms at the New York National Design Center to illustrate how music could be integrated into home d=E9cor. Mr. Stanton was born in Canton, Ohio, and graduated from Wayne State University's School of Electrical Engineering in 1939. While there, he set up one of the first student radio stations in the country. During World War II, Mr. Stanton was involved in the design and creation of mechanisms for aerospace applications. Mr. Stanton was known for holding outings on his boat near his longtime home in Laurel Hollow, N.Y., and playing jokes on employees. He ran both of his companies until retiring in 1998, having forged new business in the compact disc era by selling headphones and speakers and having fostered the resurgence of the disc jockey market for his cartridges. - ---------- http://www.nationalreview.com/weekend/music/music-mcevoy042101.shtml - ------------ GoodBye!, the Journal of Contemporary Obituaries, has been updated to reflect the deaths of January to March of 2001.

A friend in an ad agency has posed this question to me regarding a client looking for some music to possibly use in a TV spot they're producing. His description of what he wants: "sort of acid-loungeish, like a Portishead-type sound with more of a 50s feel. Unusual, tinny, ambient, a little cynical with a slightly deranged twist. The music will be chosen for its weirdness and its suitability to play backwards and forwards throughout the spot with little discernable difference." So any ideas? Personally, I think the "Portishead" reference runs counter to "50s," but that's just me.

I've always liked the art on this one myself. But the LL 1091 is entitled just "Calypsos," unless you go by the spine, which says "Ros Album of Calypsos." And, of course, a whole album of Edmundo singing. Until I saw this title on your list, however, I wasn't sure you were talking about art. I imagined photographs of big-eyed people trapped in giant number 4's.

My idea was to combine the music with a website that would allow the listener to view covers and other information, reviews, trivia, related pop culture, etc, etc. Once done, I was going to make my grand announcement. Then I found out what an incredible amount of work it is, especially when most of my material comes from vinyl or is the audio snatched from a video. On top of that, I am always struggling with starting one project before completing another, so all my "shows" are up in the air. I'm already reworking one before it ever was finished! I'm a basket case... here's what's up so far: THE TIME TUNNEL - Movie and TV soundtracks, trailers, radio spots, snack bar announcements, commecials This is the show being reworked, my pet project, my pride and joy. You'll hear everything from The Little Fugitive to Tom Terrific to a commercials for Hai Karate and Creepy Crawlers. Over five hours long - whew.

Now, here is the thing. Unless you have a DSL or Cable connection, the listening experience ain't too good. For Crime Time and The Time Tunnel, it's mandatory. You also can't jump around from track to track. Miss that Barbarella movie trailer? Stick around for five hours, it will loop around. Out of over 30,000 Live365 stations, it's hard to get noticed. So I don't get many listeners. Ya gotta advertise, or else nobody pays any attention. Even after I advertise, nobody may care. From what I've seen, soundtrack types would rather hear the great John Williams' score from Superman III ripped from a CD than to hear his score to "Checkmate" when he was Johnny Williams. But the people that have tuned in have been very generous with their praise. Have a listen if you can and please share your comments. Once I'm satisfied with the final product suggestions and / or advice to spread the word would be most appreciated.

Becasue of the way Live365 is set up, one broadcaster can run only one show at a time. i have two accounts, so the maximum number of shows I can run is two. Running now are the two I mentioned last night. To switch, one has to be stopped, and the other started. I'll make the change in a couple of days and let you know. The Sound Of Sitar is a coded as 32kb files, so a DSL / Cable is not required.

Are there any other particularly cool Howard Roberts albums I should hear? cheers, Jonny post/view song recommendations: http://www.musicaltaste.net - ----------------------------------------------------- Get free personalized email at http://email.lycos.com # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info exotica" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email exotica@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 25 Apr 2001 00:21:56 +0800 From: "William" Subject: (exotica) recent buys hi all, well, some recent purchases. heaven/earth - the free design one by one - the free design ever since buying that first free design disc i feel somewhat compelled to buy up all their discs before they disappear here(only one shop carries a good selection of their releases here). i have yet to fully take in these two. but i was a bit surprised by one by one in that i am not sure i like it that much. i think it sounds different somehow than i was expecting it to. heaven/earth had the sound i was expecting. is one by one a later release? i love you alice b. toklas/kaleidoscope osts. chuck was raving about these awhile back and i have to agree with his raves. i am really enjoying these(got mine from jack diamond too). whenever i hear the alice b. toklas theme it really makes me want to see the movie again. melodies and mischeif(space age pop vol. 1) - v.a. my first post to the exoticalist was about this series of compialtions and now i finally have all three. i think these three rca comps are actually better than the ultralounge series. i don't seem to pull out the few ultralounge comps i have very often, but i pull these out quite a bit more often. great to hear the markko polo adventurers. something i really want more of. volume two in this series(mallets in wonderland) has "jungle drums" by esquivel. this isn't on any of my other esquivel cds. where does it come from? harry up hosono -haruoumi hosono best selection hosono was one of the founding members of ymo(and i think responsible for their martin denny cover of "firecracker"). this selection is from his days before ymo. maybe not heavily EXOTICA but nice and jazzy and mellow. included here is a cover of "chattanooga choo choo". who is hoagy carmichael? there is a song here sung in english written by him. i think the title is "hong kong blues". ring a bell with anyone? sun - ling chou hsuan two comps of old chinese music i picked up recently. chou hsuan sounds like it was recorded in the 30s and 40s and is quite good though i am still taking it in. some songs have a certain chinese opera influence in them. that mixed with more pop/jazz influences. sun-ling sounds like it was recorded later but i am not exaclty sure when. there's a small page about shou hsuan here: http://www.ne.jp/asahi/bai-dai/tokyo/zoume.htm and another here http://cet.middlebury.edu/Smitheram/ZhouXuan/ZX.html that looks like you might be able to download some samples from. but i haven't tried myself. and one last thing, i am really surprised more people from this list have not been to jonny's musical taste site and written up reviews of songs for it. if enough people write song reviews for it it could be an excellent companion to johan's exotiquarium. so far no one's even written about the exotica heavyweights - martin denny, les baxter, esquivel, yma sumac, xavier cugat, perez prado. i highly reccomend that people check out his site: http://www.psychedelicado.com/indexmt.html william in taipei. # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info exotica" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email exotica@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 24 Apr 2001 19:11:49 +0200 From: Johan Dada Vis Subject: (exotica) Re: Shaggs & other threads >From: "m.ace" >Some of you may recall that I don't buy the good/bad dichotomy... > >As for the "so bad it's good" philosophy, well, obviously I disagree with >the very premise. i completely agree with what you said, yet i use the "so bad it's good" tag myself sometimes for sheer simplicity: everyone knows what kind of music i'm talking about. what "politically correct" alternative can you suggest for the "so bad it's good" tag, for artists like Mrs. Miller? "incorrect" music is just a euphemism, i think.

Irwin & Michelle (who coined the term) mean a bit more by this. They include music from industrials and training films, propaganda, music that's polished/professional ("good") but otherwise a bit off. # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info exotica" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email exotica@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 24 Apr 2001 10:34:49 -0700 (PDT) From: Ben Waugh Subject: Re: (exotica) LP finds..... Found this gem the other day. Absolutely the sickest thing I have ever heard. Makes Little Marcy seem like Billie Holiday. http://www.metroactive.com/thrift/thrift1.html More on the TV series: "The most hideously bizarre Christian thing on television is 'Captain Hook’s Christian Pirate Puppets', a trully demented cable program hosted by a real multiple-amputee; he’s missing an arm and a leg. This show is obviously aimed at the 6 and under crowd, but they choose some of the most bizarre subject matter to be talking to little kids about. In one segment, "Mrs. Hook" (the Captain’s wife) talks about how "God is not a child molester", with a big zombie-smile on her face. Another time, The captain performed an autopsy on a puppet, pulling out beer cans, cigarettes, and eventually realistic rubber prop-organs. In one episode, they found a bunch of stowaways on the ship, and they started throwing them overboard, making them walk the plank. The captain commented "Those who don’t walk with Jesus will have to walk the plank!" -- quite a good message to send to kids! The Creme de la Creme was when the captain broadcast a segment where he explained how he lost his arm and leg in a motorcycle accident. The segment was full of gorey, full-color drawings depicting the whole incident. Remember -- this show is for children under 6! It must have really warped quite a few young minds.

(not referring to the survey question). Re: Live365. I did searches for "lounge" "Exotica" etc and came up with a bunch of stations. Also, I was able to set up my own station on radio.netsonic where I can choose my own artists (you need a lot to get it going). However, I prefer luxuria. The fact that its live, really makes it feel much more personal than the others I have listed above.
