Liner notes

What would happen if you penned an entire record between the hours of 12 and 4 in the morning? We’re about to find out, because Melbourne five piece The Paper Kites literally crafted their sophomore album twelvefour when the rest of the world was asleep. “The album is a concept record, based around a theory that an artist's creative peak is between the hours of midnight and 4am,” says frontman Sam Bentley. The result is a collection of 10 tracks, mixing the introspection of the night with smooth guitar rifts. “If I could sum up the album, it’s about what happens when selfishness and love collide.” Describing twelvefour as an “open letter,” Bentley spent two months routinely writing in the early hours of the morning to create it. “[It is] words and melodies written very late at night to attempt to understand the heaviest of choices, which is choosing someone else or yourself.” A follow up to their successful debut LP States, the musical progression of the band is obvious throughout their upcoming release. “There has been defining inspiration and theme to the songs for this album,” shares guitarist Dave Powys. “It seems like a natural progression to me from States. We’ve started using some drum sampling and a few more synths as part of the staple sound.” Heading to Seattle earlier this year, the group recorded the album with Grammy award winning producer Phil Ek, who has worked with the likes of Manchester Orchestra and The Shins. “Phil was great to work with and also…

is an extraordinary place that teaches you things you never thought you could learn. While in college you are now an adult there is no one there to wake you up in the morning, telling you what time to eat, do your homework, or now it is time for bed you are the only one that can tell you what to do or how to do it. There is a lot less leeway, you have to do your papers when they are due or you just get a zero for the assignment. There are a few great things I have learned in my first semester of…

setting is when the educator stands at the front of the class room and does most of the speaking. Sometimes they utilize power points or handouts to help facilitate learning. Comprehending what is taught during lecture is important in academic success. There are many different ways to help improve retention rates, but one common practice used among 99% of college students is note taking (Palmatier & Bennett, 1974). Note taking is said to benefit students in two different ways. Taking notes helps…

is something quite beautiful. The notes themselves are able to hum a certain tune, but if played correctly, more than one note can create a blissful melody. However, some notes are best played with a select few. The notes can represent humans. Each note, or human, sings their own note in their own perfect way. They never change who they are. They are never one another. But, sad to say, the notes themselves aren't enough, and neither was I. In the summer of 2004, I was a shy five-year-old little…

In the piano part, Chou introduces the notes from the rest of the Modal Complex related by symmetry, i.e. remaining notes of the aggregate (E-C#-C-Bb-Ab-Gb). However, he leaves out the notes C, D, and F; F is not to be introduced until the second movement; C and D become important members of the pentatonic set G-A-C-D-F played by the alto flute in measures 5-6. One may wonder how does this pentatonic set fit into Chou’s variable modes system, for no single hexachordal set contains these pitches…

The legal external environment, related to the international and national laws, may affect the cruise industry. Cruise companies often try to avoid legal factors such as national taxes and labour laws by registering their organisation and cruise liners in foreign countries with a weak political environment, such as Panama, the Bahamas, and Liberia (Burke, 2009). This is often stated as the ‘flag of convenience’. This frequently results in employees of cruises being underpaid, mistreated and they…
