...Krautrock Krautrock came to be through an underground nation wide effort to create something never before seen. Artists took bits and pieces from multiple styles of music from Germanys past. The name Krautrock originated as a joke against the music and Germany’s culture because people were not approving of it. The term went through phases of approval and dislike. At one point artists were ashamed to be labeled a Krautrock group. The styles that characterize the Krautrock movement are very eclectic; it is described as rock, and electronic, and psychedelic, the list goes on. The history of the movement is just as colorful as the music itself. The lyrics of the songs became so influenced by current happening in Europe and around the world, from the nuclear crisis to protests across the continent. Krautrock is a staple of German music history and will remain that for near foreseeable future. Germany is regarded as a nation with an extremely diverse music culture that spans centuries and all music types and styles. There are countless forms of German-Language music. This includes Neue Deutsche Welle, german for New German Wave, Hamburger Schule, or Hamburg School, Volksmusic, Classical, German Hip Hop, Neue Deutsche Harte, a form of German metal, and possibly one of the most influential, Krautrock.

It was established as a response to the increasing levels of aluminium and other metals found in soil, vegetation and waterways. The delegation of power to local authorities is broad and gives the local authorities the ability to create and enforce local laws appropriate to the particular needs and resources available in their governing area. In January 2016, Daisy was approached by a local government environment officer named John Ruth. Daisy was a university student that used disposable spray paint cans to create modern art inspired by the Gracetown bush retreat. At the time that she was approached, Daisy was in the process of cleaning a spray paint can, Psychedelic Purple which contained magnesium particles. When cleaning these cans, Daisy had to hold them upside down and spray out any excess repellent. Upon seeing this, John Ruth was certain that some of this paint had landed on her outdoor shower area which was located near her kitchen. John Ruth issued a notice that there had been a breach of Augusta Margaret River Shire Council local law that relates to the discharge of metals and metallic particles into soil, areas of vegetation, waterways, sewers, drains or similar areas. This law is followed by a significant fine of $3000. Daisy argues that the law does not apply when an insignificant amount of particles is discharged into...

The United States occupied the Islands in 1898 until 1946, and introduced American blues folk music, Rock &Blues, and rock and roll became popular.

...anti-establishment and unlicensed all night dance parties, featuring electronically-produced dance music (EDM), such as techno, house, trance and drum and bass. Since their late 1980s origins in the U.K., raves have gained widespread popularity and transformed dramatically. Consequently, their many cultural traits and behaviors have garnered much sociological interest, which mostly falls into two competing perspectives: cultural studies and public health. In this paper, we review what raves look like today compared to their high point in the 1990s. We then discuss how the cultural studies and public health perspectives define raves and have studied them over time, focusing on the “pet” sociological concepts each has sought to advance. Our analysis of these literatures reveals important differences in rave research by country and over time. We end by discussing the politics associated with the shift in rave research. Introduction Society has been greatly influenced by many alternative scenes, subcultures, or lifestyles oriented around music, youth and young adults (Epstein 1998). Some of the more notable ones include the English punk scene in the 1970s- 1980s, the U.S. jazz (1930s-1940s) and hippie scenes (1970s), and the 1990s rave scenes in the U.K. and U.S. From them have come musical innovation, social identity, fashion and other aesthetic nuances, and mainstream and alternative cultural production. Increasingly, sociology has used scenes and lifestyles to investigate...
