Weird Scenes Inside The Canyon: Laurel Canyon, Covert Ops & The Dark Heart Of The Hippie Dream

The very strange but nevertheless true story of the dark underbelly of a 1960s hippie utopia.

No Sleep: NYC Nightlife Flyers 1988-1999

No Sleep is a visual history of the halcyon days of New York City club life as told through flyer art. Spanning the late 80s through the late 90s, when nightlife buzz travelled via flyers and word of mouth, No Sleep features a collection of artwork from the personal archives of NYC DJs, promoters, club kids, nightlife impresarios, and the artists themselves. Club flyers, by design, were ephemeral objects distributed on street corners, outside of nightclubs and concert halls, in barbershops and retail shops, and were not intended to be preserved for posterity. Through the 90s, they became bo... [Read More]

Everybody Had an Ocean: Music and Mayhem in 1960s Los Angeles

Los Angeles in the 1960s gave the world some of the greatest music in rock 'n' roll history: "California Dreamin'" by the Mamas and the Papas, "Mr. Tambourine Man" by the Byrds, and "Good Vibrations" by the Beach Boys, a song that magnificently summarized the joy and beauty of the era in three and a half minutes.But there was a dark flip side to the fun fun fun of the music, a nexus between naive young musicians and the hangers-on who exploited the decade's peace, love, and flowers ethos, all fueled by sex, drugs, and overnight success. One surf music superstar unwittingly subsidized the kidna... [Read More]

Klaus Egge's folk-inspired String Quartet No. 1 was written upon the death of a friend, the poet Hans Reynolds. The piece utilizes a moving Eskimo lament in homage to Reynolds's study of Greenland Eskimos. But it is the opening Largo that is most memorable and it is performed with an appropriate degree of subdued solemnity by the Oslo String Quartet.Inspired by a nocturnal visit to a local harbor, Fartein Valen's String Quartet No. 2 utilizes a variety of certain interval leaps that, when juxtaposed with dynamics, gives the music a swaying feeling. This is a short but intense work of immense power.Johan Kvandal's String Quartet No. 3 is a rather Shostakovich-like piece in that it is tonal throughout and is also a throwback to the 19th century in the way it adheres to classical sonata form. It is played with great fiery abandon by the Oslo Quartet.Alfred Janson's String Quartet is the showpiece here that demonstrates best the Oslo Quartet's first-class musicianship. This is a cunning work of great variety and rhythmic dexterity: subtle nods to jazz, buzzing tremolos, and an overall neo-expressionist style that makes this a unique work in the canon of Norwegian string quartets.
