Revealing the Fifth Beatle!

In an unreal, stunning revelation, music history is being rewritten with the discovery of a fifth member of the iconic rock band, The Beatles. Known for decades only as "The Shadow Beatle," this enigmatic figure has been hiding in plain sight, contributing significantly to the band's success and subsequently shaping the music landscape of the 70s and 80s under a pseudonym.

Der #immersive #Dolby #Atmos Mix des legänderen Roten und Blauen Albums der #Beatles aus dem Jahr 2023 ist grandios! Nach den Jahrzehnten ist es eine wahre Freude im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes in die Musik einzutauchen. Verfügbar scheint der Atmos Mix nur in einigen Streaming Plattformen zu sein. Wer also die 2023-Edition physisch gekauft hat und eine Surround-Anlage mit Dolby Atmos hat, sollte die Alben unbedingt auch streamen! Ein echtes Erlebnis!

Good artists copy, great artists steal – and generative AI does the marketing for both

The attacks on generative AI started out claiming that it was all about protecting the creators whose works were being “stolen” in some mysterious way by virtue of software analysing them. In some cases, that high-minded stance has already degenerated into yet another scheme to pay collecting societies even more for doing next to nothing. But beyond all this …

It's very fucking wild that 40+ years have passed since John Lennon's death, that with the current technology in Audio, allows the #Beatles to have one last song together despite #Lennon and #Harrison passing.

Sixty years ago today — 29 November 1963 — the Beatles released their new single, “I Want to Hold Your Hand.”

Even though the record had advance sales of more than a million copies, it did NOT immediately enter the UK charts as #1. That’s because another song stood in its way . . . something called “She Loves You” (you might have heard of it), which was already #1 and stayed there another two weeks. Then, finally, “I Want to Hold Your Hand” got its chance to top the charts.

Listening to the #Beatles in #spatial audio on #Apple music, the new 2023 masters. I think we've hit the point where it's too clear, and at least for me, that's starting to reveal the flaws in the music. For example, the lead clearly sings "I'll never dance with another", but the others doing the Harmoney are clearly singing "I wouldn't dance with another". If it wasn't for spatial audio on #Sonos I wouldn't hear that at all.

If you're a Beatles fan, or if you have an interest in the history of popular music, or if you just like a good non-fiction read, then check out this terrific article from Salon. Here's a short excerpt...
__________________________

In February 1988, Leena Kutti, a 43-year-old Estonian immigrant, accepted an assignment to work at G.P. Putnam’s Sons, the vaunted New York City publishing house. The job at Putnam’s brought her to the New York Life Building — and, more specifically, to the basement.

Known as the “storage room” in the parlance of the publisher’s staff, the dusty basement level was packed to the gills with every possible kind of detritus. It was mostly clerical stuff — paperwork and contracts associated with a century in the life of American publishing. But there were strange things, too, hidden among the attendant accumulation — objets d’art such as paintings, sculpture, photographs. And Kutti’s job, more or less, was to throw it all out.

It was around the second day on the job when Kutti happened upon four boxes. Almost immediately, she could tell that they held contents of a particular significance.

As she sifted through the boxes, she gazed at what seemed like vintage photographs of the Beatles — thousands of them. And then she found a manuscript titled "Living the Beatles’ Legend: Or 200 Miles to Go." It was an oddly formatted specimen — printed in all caps.

And further still, she discovered a spate of leather-bound diaries. Leafing through their pages, Kutti was able to ascertain that the boxes must be the property of Malcolm Evans, a name that meant nothing to her. From the looks of the booty that lay before her in the basement, he must have been some kind of chronic hoarder, an avid photographer apparently, and an enthusiastic journaler who peppered his voluminous diary entries with madcap, colorful — even psychedelic — illustrations.

To an avid fan of the Beatles, the name Mal Evans is instantly recognizable. He played an important role with the band; on the periphery, to be sure, but Mal was intimately involved with John, Paul, George, and Ringo for many years.

So I'm excited about reading a new book that's about to be published: "LIVING THE BEATLES LEGEND: The Untold Story of Mal Evans."

My favourite Beatles song is While My Guitar Gently Weeps, written by George, and featured on their self-titled "White" album.

@heiseonline Für den neuen #Beatles-Song wurde niemand wiederbelebt, auch nicht per #KI. Er enthält lediglich posthum veröffentlichte, digital bereinigte und mit neuem Material zusammengemischte Aufnahmen. Die dazu verwendeten Techniken gelten z. T. als KI, aber niemand hat einen Bot mit John Lennons Stimme singen lassen oder so. Die Aufregung ist unangebracht und das Hashtag „Deepfake“ erst recht. #Stimmungsmache

@openculture
the video in all its artificial style is distracting from a little bit boring melody. A bit of nostalgia can be expected. As I remember the tape was given to Paul by Yoko lots of decades in the past after John's death. It reminds me on the fragments of unreleased songs like the Antology project . Similiar like the group ABBA did publish s.th. in the nineties. I guess it is rather published as a testimonial or obituary than as a real #beatles song.

🇬🇧 È stato pubblicato un nuovo brano dei Beatles dal titolo "Now and Then".

La particolarità è la presenza della traccia audio di John Lennon separata dal demo originale grazie a un software di intelligenza artificiale.

Un modo interessante e creativo di sfruttare le potenzialità della AI.

Thanks to technology, the final new #Beatles track is due out this week, having started out with an in-progress song Lennon recorded to a cassette tape. Nice behind the scenes look at how it came to be. #Music

Showcasing the use of #AI to fully separate John Lennon's voice, which was used in the upcoming release.

Delicious... ❤️

((I'll comment in German for once. Please use DeepL.com, as I do with your texts).

Das historische Verdienst der Beatles liegt nicht allein bei einigen Songs für die Ewigkeit. Sondern auch darin, dass sie die für heutige Musiker selbstverständliche Arbeit im Studio etablierten.

Da ihre (weiblichen) Fans stets so laut kreischten, dass die Band ihre eigene Musik auf der Bühne kaum noch hören konnte, gaben sie das Touren auf und verbrachten Wochen und Monate im Studio. Erst dadurch wurde "Sound" zu einer heute üblichen Kategorie, um Musik zu bewerten. Statt kurz zwischen Gigs und Touren eine neue LP in Tagen im Studio einzuspielen, feilten die Beatles als Studio-Pioniere wochenlang an einzelnen Tracks, wobei der 'fünfte Beatle', ihr Produzent George Martin daran einen gehörigen Anteil hatte.

Hört einmal mit diesem Wissen ein Stück wie "Strawberry Fields" neu an. Und entdeckt die große Kunst dahinter.

The Lucy hominid was named after the 1967 Beatles song "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds". Apparently, the song was played loudly and repeatedly in the expedition camp all evening after the team's first day of work on the excavation site.

The Lucy spacecraft carries a disc made of lab-grown diamonds for its L'TES instrument.

So, let's listen to the Beatles sing "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" as Lucy flies by asteroid 'you are wonderful' Dinkinesh 🎶
