Recenzii
There is plenty here to enjoy ... Among the best chapters by far are those flowing out of the stories of feminism, gay activism and sheer theatricality.
An important history of a highly significant British label, this deliciously wide-ranging collection considers an array of key artists approached from always stimulating perspectives: issues of production, promotion and reception in an emerging Depeche Mode, the meaning of noise in Throbbing Gristle's industrial odyssey and the challenging photographic depictions of Alison Goldfrapp, to name only a few.
This excellent and innovative collection demonstrates the value of making a record company the basis of investigation into the tangled relations between music, creativity, and business. It helps that the choice of company is one of the world's most adventurous and fascinating record labels.
Mute Records is one of independent music's most iconic labels, and with this book it finally gets the scholarly treatment it deserves. Mute Records: Artists, Business, History is a much-needed compendium that makes an important contribution to the industrial history of popular music studies.
A delight for fans and scholars, Mute Records explores some of the most exciting and influential music of the past four decades. A record label born in a bedroom, Mute mixed the weird and the danceable, the avant garde and the mainstream, and in the process became a cozy home for platinum hitmakers and obscurantists alike. While upholding staunchly indie principles, Mute pioneered an electronic roots music that stands as a foundation for much contemporary dance-pop. The collection offers smart and passionate analyses of stars like Depeche Mode, Nick Cave, Moby and Goldfrapp alongside insightful essays on indie artists who helped shape the synthetic sound of our time. A model of interdisciplinary scholarship, the volume ranges across musicological, industrial, and sociological approaches, with particular attention to the radical gender and sexual politics of key artists. An example of popular music studies at its very best.
