The Note Episode 1 | Alex Rosner: Shaping the Sound of New York

The Note is a new documentary series from Red Bull Music Academy. Watch all episodes here: www.redbull.tv/...
Sound designer Alex Rosner was the sonic architect and guru of some of NYC’s most legendary clubs of the 1970s. In the first edition of The Note documentary series, we offer an intimate portrayal of how Rosner - and others like him - fundamentally changed the way we experience dance music via soundsystem designs for iconic clubs like The Loft.

This piece could have been 2 hours long. He really deserves something like that. There are a lot of people who care about sound, and history. Particularly in NYC during the formative club years.

Me and my friends use to go to the Gallery back in the day ! Love Nicky Siano's DJ & Davids Loft music we would dance all night until daylight! Those were the good old day´s when parties were real good parties! For people of all walks of life !

[@SuperHappyplant]

Really interesting piece thank you. Alex, like many geniuses of their field, has an ability to make the very complex very understandable. The panels of glass analogy is perfect

Before Richard Long there was Alex Rosner

[@knockshinnoch1950]

Fascinating and informative. Can't get enough of this type of documentary!

[@Ultimatewarrior78]

Red Bull, could you make a documentary about Richard Long?

[@secretsquirrel2]

This needs to happen.

[@norakat]

Yeah but its prob wouldnt be much different. He basically worked for Alex.

[@Chatetris]

When he says of STUDIO 54 being the most famous.......I'll give him (and others) THAT........BUT!!!!........ no where near....... THE BEST.... I'm not being bias when i say that THE PARADISE GARAGE ( I've only been there once) is the best and so many others ( in the thousands) feel this way alao. It wasn't made to be famous, it was made to be the BEST. Matter of fact.....it GOT FAMOUS ....because of the sound (and also the way the DJ pushed the envelope in terms of operating that system ,which i won't mention because this "Spotlights all ALEX'S). Great documentary, i love behind the scenes of disco/house music era.

[@JorgeSantos-ik4qq]

Would really love to know the name of the tracks used in this doc...Anyone, please? Thanks

[@professormause]

He IS filling Cathedrals.....?

[@Gump-tion]

This is incredible! When I open I my nightclub, I hope Mr. Rosner will design the sound system for me.

[@D0CT0RS0UL]

a true genius ! Thanks for this very interesting documentary on sound ! We need more like this !

[@sulfursixx]

what camera is this shot with? damnnnn

[@PasqualeDeRosa-n1v]

Now we have a lot of clubs where the budget for lights and "effects" outstrip that for the sound.

[@totalpkg6912]

Club sound is not about fidelity but energy

[@fradaja]

Survivor because of Schindler’s list , gives me shivers Still

[@totalpkg6912]

[@recycleyourself1]

[@norakat]

Props to Red Bull for covering music / club music history in so many areas.

[@FVDaudio]

👍🏻👍🏻✨✨

[@michaels5166]

To this day,I care about the music,less about the tools,and it does not have to cost millions.There are still some people who have the skills,the raw knowledge,and care about quality.In this world of Beats headphones and MP3 level sound,some still create good sound,without the elitist trash some so called purists/audiophiles try to sell the public.

[@alainvincent1309]
