The EDM / Trance Music World Finally Honors & Pays Homage To Vanguard, Hypnotic Electronic Music Experimentation Of Former Disco-Diva Donna Summer! Donna Summer was typecast as the disco-era “bad girl,” the diva who was too salty and sexual for some radio stations to play in the ‘70s. But she was also a musical revolutionary, a versatile singer who created a radical new template for dance and pop music with such songs as “Love to Love You Baby” and “I Feel Love.” Born LaDonna Adrian Gaines on Dec. 31, 1948 outside Boston, came from a devoutly Christian background, first singing in church before branching out into pop. In the late '60s, she joined a psychedelic rock band strongly influenced by Janis Joplin, and then ventured to Europe, where she sang in musicals. In the early ‘70s, she met the producers Giorgio Moroder and Pete Bellotte while working as a backup singer in Germany, and they began forging one of the era’s great musical partnerships. Their first success, “Love to Love You Baby,” ushered in the disco era in 1975, a 17-minute track with a pulsing, trance-like rhythm over which Summer cooed, cried and moaned. The track’s overtly erotic tone scared away some radio programmers, but an edited version became a pop hit anyway, and the extended version (among the first 12-inch singles) became a staple of dancefloors worldwide. In a Tribune interview more than a decade later, Summer reflected on the image created by the song. “People didn’t think I could sing, because I was whispering,” she said. “And it was a persona … It was never something that I felt comfortable with. I struggled with it from the beginning … but it’s nothing I’m ashamed of.” She escaped the one-hit wonder typecasting so prevalent in the disco era. Moroder, Bellotte and Neil Bogart, the president of her record label, Casablanca, put her in settings that showcased her as an artist with stunning vocal range. A succession of double-albums, side-long suites and extended tracks created a new type of progressive music, created largely with keyboards, that expanded on some of the innovations of electro-pop and avant-garde artists such as Kraftwerk. In 1977, the producers and Summer collaborated on a concept album that surveyed several decades of music, “I Remember Yesterday.” Its “future” segment included the track “I Feel Love,” which lived up to the hype: hypnotic waves of synthesizer rhythm suggesting some kind of science-fiction metropolis, with Summer’s voice rising and falling as if riding the celestial highway’s curves. It was not only a No. 2 pop single, it would prove to have a lasting impact on music. Brian Eno, while in recording sessions in Berlin with David Bowie at the time, proclaimed the song, “The sound of the future.” Which, Bowie, added, “was more or less right.” “We had the music, and we wrote so many lyrics that didn't work -- they were too dense,” Summer said of “I Feel Love” in a recent interview. “And I said, ‘This is a chant -- this is euphoric’ and started to sing simpler things ... and it was so natural. It still sounds great -- when you're on the cutting edge of something and you hear it back, sometimes it sounds so dated, but this still sounds fresh to me.” http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2012-05-17/entertainment/chi-donna-summer-dead-singer-donna-summer-dead-at-63-20120517_1_ladonna-adrian-gaines-pete-bellotte-donna-summer #edm #trance #progressivetrance #avantgarde #eclecticmusic #experimentalmusic #vanguard #avantgarde Donna Summer dead; singer Donna Summer dead at 63 Donna Summer was typecast as the disco-era “bad girl,” the diva who was too salty and sexual for some radio stations to play in the ‘70s.
