The Evolution of Electronic Dance Music

Editat de Professor Ewa Mazierska, Tony Rigg, Les Gillon
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 28 dec 2022
The Evolution of Electronic Dance Music establishes EDM's place on the map of popular music. The book accounts for various ambiguities, variations, transformations, and manifestations of EDM, pertaining to its generic fragmentation, large geographical spread, modes of consumption and, changes in technology. It focuses especially on its current state, its future, and its borders - between EDM and other forms of electronic music, as well as other forms of popular music. It accounts for the rise of EDM in places that are overlooked by the existing literature, such as Russia and Eastern Europe, and examines the multi-media and visual aspects such as the way EDM events music are staged and the specificity of EDM music videos. Divided into four parts - concepts, technology, celebrity, and consumption - this book takes a holistic look at the many sides of EDM culture.

Recenzii

The Evolution of the Electronic Dance Music provides a much needed update in popular music studies on Electronic Dance Music as an umbrella music genre on the rise since the new millennium. This volume gives the reader a very precise understanding of the music itself focusing on its history and its evolution into different ramifications. It also explores the topics of global stardom in electronic music; of genre, sexism and age in club cultures. It then takes us to different dance music scenes across Europe to further our understanding of this ever-evolving music genre. An insightful journey into the world of EDM.
This is a very important book for scholars who are interested in all things EDM. This authoritative yet accessible collection of chapters covers the history, production processes and aesthetics of EDM across countries. Illuminating case studies bring the topic to life by addressing not only current issues such as ageism and sexism, but also aspects related to EDM stardom.
The Evolution of Electronic Dance Music is a deep academic work of great richness that clearly details much of dance music's long history. I wish I'd had this text when I wrote my dissertation on club culture - it's a must read for anyone interested in the genre.
