On The Road With Ramones Four scraggly kids from Forest Hills, The Ramones never had a breakthrough hit, and were never truly embraced by the corporate music industry, and yet today they are regarded as the legends that started it all...the original punk prototype. The band fused the aggression of Detroit punk with the bubblegum polish of pop and the bombast of glam to create a sound with attitude, energy and addictive tunes. Their road-dog mentality and fierce live shows garnered them a legion of devoted follows, but simultaneously caused the band to pay a heavy price, both physically and emotionally.

Edgar Varese One of the most influential, innovative and inspiring composers of the 20th Century, Edgard Varese responded to advances in modern science in a climate of global conflict to create music that broke down the fragile remnants of diatonic tonality and embraced 'noise'. His intellectual shift from the dominance of melodic progression to a more textural approach to composition would see him revered by such cultural figureheads as Igor Stravinsky, Karlheinz Stockhausen, Frank Zappa and others. His 'Poem Electronique' was one of the first examples of a purely artificial, studio-made composition, and would act as a blueprint for later Electroacoustic explorations. The work Ionisation for percussion ensemble included air-raid sirens and was described by the New York Times as a 'terrible and marvelous work'. The 1954 premier of Deserts caused an uproar comparable to the infamous response to The Rite Of Spring some fifty years earlier.

Stiff Little Fingers: Song By Song Belfast punk rockers Stiff Little Fingers crashed into the public consciousness in 1977, when their first self-financed single Suspect Device was played every night for over a week by revered DJ John Peel. The band's debut LP Inflammable Material was the first album pressing for the now hugely significant Rough Trade label. Their songs were anthemic and politically acute, at a time of great turbulence and social unrest.
