New York, 1961. Clyde Morton, genannt Viper, hat gerade seinen dritten Mord begangen, den ersten, den er bereut. Doch anstatt zu fliehen – sein Kontaktmann bei der Polizei hat ihm drei Stunden gegeben –, hängt er im Cathouse der Baroness Pannonica de Koenigswarter, kurz Nica, und grübelt. Wie allen Musikern, die bei ihr ein- und ausgehen, hat die Schutzpatronin der New Yorker Jazzszene ihm aufgetragen, drei Wünsche aufzuschreiben. Viper weiß, dass ihm nicht viel Zeit bleibt und er sicher im Knast endet, wenn er nicht augenblicklich verschwindet, aber das scheint plötzlich nicht wichtig. Er blickt zurück auf seine Ankunft in Harlem im Jahr 1936, als er noch hoffte, hier seinen Traum als Trompeter zu verwirklichen. Da sein Talent dafür nicht ausreicht, fängt er als Geldeintreiber an, steigt in den Drogenhandel ein und wird bald zu einem gefürchteten und respektierten Boss. Im Rhythmus des Jazz und im Rauch von Marihuana regiert er Harlem. Doch abseits seiner Kontrolle breitet sich das Heroin aus und richtet auch unter den Jazz-Leuten Verheerung an. Das ehemals pulsierende, bunte Harlem geht vor die Hunde, und Viper wird von seiner Vergangenheit eingeholt … Mit einem fesselnden Figurenensemble und in unvergleichlichem Sound erzählt Jake Lamar in diesem preisgekrönten Gangster-Jazzroman vom Aufstieg und Fall eines gewalttätigen Antihelden inmitten New Yorks zu Zeiten der Segregation – mit Gastauftritten von Miles Davis, Thelonious Monk, Charlie Parker und Little Richard. »Ein einziger langer Höhenflug, der uns durch das Harlem der 1930er bis 1960er Jahre fegt, zu Riffs von melancholischer Poesie, durchzogen von den hardboiled Beats der Gangster und ihrer Straßen. Ein wahrhaftiger, purer Jazz-Noir-Klassiker, der süchtig macht.« David Peace »Man kann förmlich sehen, wie der Schweiß von den angeschlagenen Saiten eines Kontrabasses fliegt. Man hat der Musik zugehört, im Buch gelesen, schon seit Stunden – und es steckt immer noch voller Überraschungen.« James Sallis »Ein hervorragender historischer Thriller, der es mit dem großen US-Krimiautor Chester Himes aufnehmen kann.« The Sun »Ein stimmungsvoller Noir. Lamars größte Stärke ist sein Gespür für Orte.« The New York Times »Düster, poetisch und mitreißend.« Deborah Levy

All Sam wants is to play the drums. She's always hearing beats in her head, but she's not that great at playing. Her parents wouldn't pay for private lessons even if they could afford them, while sixth grade band is chaotic and only slightly better than useless. But when the district cuts her school's music program, Sam faces a threat worse than mediocrity: no drums in her life at all. Sam can't accept that. She'll find a way to get lessons herself—earn the money, convince drum legend Pete Taylor to teach her, and practice until she can play the way she dreams. If her parents find out, there will be trouble. But whatever it takes to learn, that's what Sam will do…

Please fully read the description. This is a used working pair of Beats headphones. See all pictures. It has some cosmetic wear here and there. Light scuffs on the base and the ear pads have light wear (but are in decent condition). The headphones but left and right sound great. I tested out for a full half hour. No static or distortion and the headphones block out the outside noises really well. The original audio input cord is damaged but Im still including. I have another 3.5mm cord I"m including but I'm also including a new Energizer 3.5mm cord to plug into with. Case is in pretty good shape as well. Zipper works great. Again see all pictures.

Why patience beats prediction every time. Market timing is the fantasy that you can predict tops and bottoms, buy low and sell high, and get rich quick. The data says otherwise. Even professional traders fail at timing markets consistently. This book dismantles the market timing myth. We analyze decades of research showing that time in the market beats timing the market. The investor who stays invested through crashes outperforms the trader who tries to dodge them. Why? Because missing the ten best days wipes out years of gains. We explore behavioral biases that make timing irresistible. Recency bias makes us extrapolate trends forever. Loss aversion makes us sell at bottoms. Overconfidence makes us think we are smarter than the market. Learn to ignore noise. Build a system. Stay the course. Patience is not sexy, but it works.

We have been sold a lie. The modern self-help industry tells us that success is about willpower—that if you just try harder, resist more, and push through, you will achieve anything. But science tells a different story. Willpower is not a character trait; it is a finite resource that depletes throughout the day. This book dismantles the willpower myth and reveals the truth: environment shapes behavior far more than determination ever could. Learn why removing temptation beats resisting it, why automating decisions conserves mental energy, and why identity-based habits outlast goal-based motivation. Stop fighting yourself. Instead, engineer your surroundings. Make the good choice the easy choice. When willpower fails—and it always does—your environment will carry you forward. This is not about being stronger. It is about being smarter.

Die Musik befindet sich im Umbruch – und an vorderster Front steht die künstliche Intelligenz. "Komponieren mit Code" beleuchtet die stille Revolution in Tonstudios, Wohnzimmern und Forschungszentren: Algorithmen schreiben Songs, Maschinen remixen Hits, und KI-gestützte Tools verändern, wie Musik gedacht, geschaffen und erlebt wird. Wendelin S. Hall führt durch die Geschichte technologischer Musikinnovation bis zur Gegenwart – von den ersten Synthesizern bis zu neuronalen Netzwerken, die Bach imitieren oder Trap-Beats generieren. Das Buch zeigt, wie KI menschliche Kreativität ergänzt, neue Musikstile inspiriert und bestehende Rollen in der Branche herausfordert. Dabei geht es nicht nur um Technik, sondern um zentrale Fragen: Was bedeutet Kreativität im Zeitalter der Maschinen? Wem gehört ein KI-generierter Song? Und welche Chancen bietet diese Entwicklung für Musiker, Produzenten, Entwickler und Hörer? Ein inspirierendes, kritisches und praxisnahes Buch über die Zukunft der Musik im digitalen Zeitalter – und die Rolle, die wir Menschen darin spielen.
