Tried to bring heaven down to a late abstract artist also prenup. But joining me straight away is john understand the boss of all drug addict records this is a classical Record Company which is a bit special because its a nonprofit making cooperative which puts the artists in charge it sounds wonderful joel. But how does it work because you have to make some money to pay people who who work for you of course that we have a team of fifteen effect that we have to pay and that is a talent obviously but the goal with with all to take was to find a way of making. Something in the world something which is not really of the world soul music which is priceless which is not transactional which is as a value completely different from commercial value soul but in some way finding a way to commodifies it to put it in a marketplace and to do
a service to the artists who are collaborating with us ok now and i like the way you choose who you will record its a bit like one of those things on the something called the voice on the television whether you know its kind of blind auditions as these are you exactly this. Is the scientific Peer Review Process that weve coopted for for arts. Again the idea here is that were trying to find a way to. Choose our artist choose a repertoire in a way which is not motivated by a Profit Motive by a Marketing Decisions and things like this and so what we have what weve built a platform to which people can apply in a demo but then is evaluated by the actual Rostrum Members themselves of the label and they receive a link with just the music so we dont know who they are where theyre from man or woman. If they are old young famous knots we evaluate really on the basis the music
itself and the interest of the program lets lets hear someone who who got through this right decision process this is the italian finesse victorio forte playing a piece by man and. I should just mention that its rachmaninoff but its an especial arrangement is. Ok. The record strong of the label is seems to be mostly contemporary i mean the very first thing you brought time was some bugs piano music or first of yes you
know i mean thats quite a nice market well the interesting thing about this is that its not a decision of myself or or an explicit policy of the label but the music which does tend to make it through this filter which we have by the end of the bureau of your filter is the more innovative Programming Stuff which is less represented the stuff which we have already heard thousands of times though just as a natural result of our Selection Process i think wed be in the doing ok now you said in an interview although she told me its not quite the cd is that its all going to go wild laws so how are you going to make money or should i say make enough to keep going so. Certainly through the cd players are being built building the cars and the computers is going to go the way of vinyl at some point there are always be collections and there always be artists who need to to make see these also. Its a Good Business card having
a tangible moment was very good but but yes theres no doubt the market is moving towards digital and were moving in that same direction or developing various Online Platforms which we hope will position isnt a good place to be the interface between musicians the Music Industry and the public and youve got a jazz label again lets hear some music this is again an italian artist no please hopefully im pronouncing right and his bad thats our quickness. Thats. A rainy day on your jazz label and just briefly what are you doing here in
germany the home of the mighty dortch of gramophone are you hoping to sort of put them out of business all in all i know there is no not even any intention of competition in the sense what were trying to propose is an alternative to that. So the major labels they control more or less eighty percent of the market but its a dime market its also also theyre struggling and in my opinion. The fact that the digital revolution thats part of it of course but it but its actually a symptom of i think taking music in the wrong way and so were trying to present it in a different way which we think is actually a positive way for a way that will get us out and of course the digital revolution for us is a good thing you told this really fascinating we need more enterprising on for pros. In the business especially in the music Business Ventures of course changing good
luck with the Film Anderson thank you from. Thank you very much for joining as you might be interested in this next piece if you want to place in london a Little Office in london. The olympic park in london encompassed Five Hundred Sixty acres of east london but after the olympics finished in Two Thousand And Twelve what became of this vast sites well most of the buildings have been put to good use including what used to be the press center an enterprising group of architects have now turned it into a Technology Park for startups. In east london compact and colorful studios have been built in the space that served as the International Broadcast center during the twenty twelve olympics. Making gaskins works for conspiring architects he and his colleagues designed the gantry. The Olympic Games were hugely positive for london i think the local area but because of
the level of development it happened. Its swept away a lot of sort of local history and so we want to use this project as a way of reminding people about parts of the local history that they could be proud of. The bright colors used to this Studios Facade for example echo the rappers of suites that used to be manufactured close by. The Architects Didnt Draw Inspiration only from local businesses and one studio facade commemorates an unusual landmark that used to be in the area. Before the olympic. Theres a Very Frank Famous Local Landmark on the canal which was nicknamed fridge mountain. Just a few years it was europes largest white goods dumping ground. The tenants of the twenty one works spaces are is buried is the studios for sands the mix includes a record label to Music StudiosArchitects Engineers and designers. Trip scally is House Manager his employer the tramper he was hired by the Technology Park to look after the studios and its tenants. He explains what really sets the gantry a past. We can make beautiful spaces you can design Amazing Spaces you can have great views but ultimately the thing that makes this the place tick will make it last beyond me to the tramp or even as a company will be the stories in the Collaboration Network that happens for people interrupting day to day carving a business together. Theyre sure to be a lot more fun in these colorful studios. Now the Art Museum Just outside born in Western Germany is named after hans and sophie are up who were two of the pioneers of abstract art in the early Twentieth Century the current exhibition their features works by auto pina it was actually
one of the great Abstract Artists Of The Second Half of the tried to century concerning himself predominantly with light fire and the culture. How do you bring heaven to earth how do you paint with light how can you reach outer space. The Exhibition Alchemy just in stormer of the skies explores artist auto pinas universe and finds his Work Exploding with raw power. Like this volcanic eruption which practically flings its lava towards the viewer pina did not paint pictures like this with a brush but with fire here friday here it really seems to explode on the canvas. Its called the fire because often i painted always took a circle as his Starting Point and then sprayed it with a National Paint focus manipulated it with its citizens and then ignited the whole
thing thats going to end soon and that and then during this process of ignition the cheering the heat the paint would run you can see red spots the pain. Red and down like a melting pot so to speak and cemented a certain moment he blew out the fire proof that jesus and what remained was solidified matter up to material. Also pina was using new Painting Techniques at the end of the one Nine Hundred Fifty s. It was also during this time that he cofounded the Artists Group zero. Wasnt it seems there was a kind of turning point after the Second World War that they wanted a more ideal world that was basically a transition to silence to tranquility. So what did pina have to say about that in twenty thirteen he visited an exhibition of his work in cars with. His instincts and bit there was a need to see something in the light instead of in the dark the image that indoor
in the depression into deep as your own we wanted to get to know another world a new world in it and if necessary build it or help to build a new country and we had to hear oh no bone here from. An artist whose work was truly inspired by the stars. And then in that museum is in an old Railway Station on the banks of the river run its quite a place finally one of the worlds most famous paintings go reading a letter its an open window by the great.
