	andrew poppy (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		andrew approaches music in a totally different way to your normal composer, the music is very rhythmic, disjointed, and almost non-melodic.
		he pushed the limits for an pop/rock record label, though, knowing andrew poppy had involvement with the industrial noises by throbbing gristle, as well as having a proper musical education, i suspect that the ztt knew exactly what they were letting themselves in for when they got the required signature on the contract.
		i am not going into full detail here as to what forms andrews groove, as the superb sleeve notes (written by longtime ztt aficionado, ian peel) reveal all, thus providing a full and proper insight to his arrival at sarm east (or was it west?).

	One Family's Elusive Truth: Andrew Jarecki's "Capturing the Friedmans"
		Andrew Jarecki started making one movie, a light documentary about clowns, and ended up with something completely different: "Capturing The Friedmans," the story of a family that is destroyed by allegations of child molestation and pedophilia.
		I just saw the movie, and had Andrew the director came to the screening too, so we were able to have a sort of Q & A with him.
		And Andrew pointed out that subtle difference in words and meanings, to paul the lawyer, and the lawyer, apparently understood the difference in what Jessie had said at that moment.

	Guardian Unlimited Arts \| Arts features \| A mighty wind
		If you're into contemporary composition, the bargain of the week has to be Andrew Poppy on Zang Tuum Tumb (ZTT 3CD, £15.99), which collects Poppy's 1980s albums The Beating of Wings and Alphabed together with a third, unreleased album and various odds and ends.
		You get plenty of notes for your money, too: despite Poppy's reputation as a minimalist, his best pieces are gloriously abundant in cascading cycles of notes and noises, with satisfying, circular chord sequences, using very big ensembles and big-sounding virtual ensembles with keyboards and samplers.
		Yet what you hear in Poppy's music, particularly in key works such as 32 Frames for Amplified Orchestra and Cadenza for Piano and Electric Piano, is a keen ear for the large-scale, compositional use of timbre - the qualities that drew him to the cutting edge technology of ZTT's studio-based culture.

	Andrew Poppy - Andrew Poppy On Zang Tumb Tuum : album review
		He may not be an exact soundalike for any of those mentioned above, but Poppy's style has elements of all, in some cases predating the composers themselves, arriving at a distinctive and melodic approach.
		At the other end of the scale is Poppy's theme for the Channel 4 series The Tube, demonstrating an ability to popularise his music if required.
		Poppy joined the ZTT label some twenty years ago, hence this commemorative collection of material, and at this time minimalist music was very much underground.

		In early 1981 Poppy became a founder member and pianist with The Lost Jockey, a large ensemble which explored in both composition and performance the pulse based techniques associated with the work of Glass, Reich and Andriessen.
		Poppy's attempt to recontextalise this music and gain access to a wider audience came in the mid 1980's when he signed as a recording artist to Paul Morley and Trevor Horn's ZTT Records.

		I had seen the first movie a few years back but I didn't really remember much about it other than thinking that it was ok. Being the huge Poppy Z. Brite fan that I am I, of course, had to read this book.
		Poppy's writing style is as wonderfully descriptive as ever but the plot was very inconsistent.
		I'd recommend this book to hardcore fans of Poppy and/or The Crow but if you are looking to get into Poppy's writing, I suggest you start with Lost Souls, Drawing Blood, or one of her short story collections.

		The main piece, Schaun Tozer's "Professor", crams side one with ideas, tortuous rhythm athletics hammering away somewhere between The Big Country and Bali, bright and needle sharp but always one step ahead of the numbing repetition systems music is prone to.
		Andrew Poppy's "Animal Behaviour & Crude Din" has an odd pop feel to it, going up and down like a funky Guinness Clock, and could probably insinuate its way into a hip disco.
		John Barker's "Rise & Fall" is probably the most tradtional systems piece, a sweet, mesmeric and almost melancholy work, gentle and delicate in its movements like (last horological simile for 50 miles) a swiss watch.

		Although Andrew Poppy is classified as a minimalist composer and musician, any comparisons with other artists like Glass, Mertens or Nyman are totally out of line.
		Best known for his albums from the 80's on the infamous ZTT label of Trevor Horn, Andrew Poppy has since ventured on his own, releasing various independent productions.
		His extensive body of work consists of concert music, opera and scores for contemporary dance, theatre, film and television.

	Smallmouth: Kissing the Future (Seattle Weekly)
		But his records were marketed as pop (if a strange and elongated kind of pop), and the sounds of these pieces are the hyperreal sounds of hit records: samples, sequencers, booming drums, discrete rhythmic layers.
		Poppy had briefly been a rock musician, although his main interest by the early '80s was the repetition-heavy school of Terry Riley, Steve Reich, and especially Michael Nyman, whose music is often very clearly the inspiration for the pieces on AP on ZTT.
		Listen to any 20-second passage of Poppy's work, and you'll have an imperfect but reasonably reliable idea of what the next 20 seconds will be like.

		Beginning with his membership of ‘80s cult collective Lost Jockey and a sequence of genre-melting albums for the ZTT label, Andrew Poppy has carved out a niche as one of Britain’s most original and expectation-defying composers.
		As a teenager learning the piano, Andrew Poppy was barely familiar with the established classical canon when he caught a radio broadcast of a Stockhausen composition one day.
		As Poppy recalls, this creative vision really began to take shape with ‘Cadenza’, written in the same year as his close encounter with Cage.

	Claudia Brücken and Andrew Poppy - Another Language - Review - Stylus Magazine
		As lead singer of German synth-outfit Propaganda (and later as one half of Act, with Thomas Leer), Brücken gave voice to Horn’s ongoing obsession with Abba, fashioning the brilliant A Secret Wish, a masterpiece of baroque synth-pop that was equal parts pop art and Josef K-inspired post-punk.
		The pertly-named Poppy was barking up another, though not unrelated tree; a formally trained composer, he flaunted a remarkable gift for texture within polyrhythmic composition on two predominantly orchestral ZTT releases (The Beating of Wings and Alphabed), pitting him somewhere between the hardcore European minimalist school led by Louis Andriessen and early Cabaret Voltaire.
		Long exiled to the contemporary concert music world with only the occasional pop string arrangement for the likes of The The, Poppy handles the disparate pop material with a genuine verve—as if deprived of his beloved orchestra, he were determined to wring every last melody and harmony from his solitary instrument.

		Obviously after 10 years of recording studio avoidance Claudia has got the bug once again, having released the glorious Onetwo EP and now this new collaboration with ZTT minimal neo-classical composer Andrew Poppy.
		However, instead of the full rich orchestrations (real or synthetic) that the listener may be used to from both of these artists, this album is an instrumentally raw stripped down affair with most of the songs being a single instrument (mainly electric piano or guitar) matched against Claudia's distinctive vocals.
		Andrew is on fire on the piano and Claudia just sounds wonderful in such open and untreated form.
