Popular Music in the Post-Digital Age: Politics, Economy, Culture and Technology

Editat de Professor Ewa Mazierska, Les Gillon, Tony Rigg
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 24 iun 2020
Popular Music in the Post-Digital Age explores the relationship between macro environmental factors, such as politics, economics, culture and technology, captured by terms such as 'post-digital' and 'post-internet'. It also discusses the creation, monetisation and consumption of music and what changes in the music industry can tell us about wider shifts in economy and culture. This collection of 13 case studies covers issues such as curation algorithms, blockchain, careers of mainstream and independent musicians, festivals and clubs-to inform greater understanding and better navigation of the popular music landscape within a global context.

Recenzii

[This book] does work of interest to historians of technology, 'thinking across' categories of technology, society, and culture, and dwelling on the historical specificity of each.
A timely addition to music and cultural scholarship because it raises a multitude of important questions concerning ways in which a highly marketized and commodified popular music industry might just be able to find its way through the neoliberal fog.
Barna and Magaudda provide two good examples of how, by following the actors themselves as they envision a future for music, grope and sketch the contours of the worlds to come, it is possible to think about them in an original way.
Music industry is in a condition of permanent flux driven by music's seamless adaptation to digital innovation. The key tension in music industry as a practice is that digital application does not always chime with regulated ownership of intellectual property rights in music. This is an impressive collection in which all participants have worked in a focused way to specify how music industry is transformed by digitization. In a turbulent environment, this collection exhibits staying power and will be a useful point of reference for academics and students over a prolonged period.
In an era of ever-expanding technological possibility and pace, time is an invaluable and irreplaceable resource. As such, how we listen and to what we listen becomes a nuanced and important question about how we understand each other and our relationship to the places we live. Popular Music in the Post-Digital Age provocatively explores this from multiple perspectives and ideas, asking critical questions about the continued evolution and role of one of humankind's most expressive and important languages - the language of music.
This is an important contribution to the growing literature on the present era of music, its practitioners and consumers, not least because of the international breadth of its coverage.
