An Intimate History of Rough Trade

The prequel to the critically acclaimed and award-winning This is Memorial Device

Industry of Magic &amp; Light is a love letter to the counterculture of the 1960s and a requiem for its passing. The much-anticipated prequel to Keenan's cult classic debut, This is Memorial Device, Industry of Magic &amp; Light is set in the same mythical Airdrie in the 1960s and early 70s and centres on a group of hippies running their own psychedelic light show. Told in two halves - the first in the form of an inventory of the contents of a caravan abandoned by one of the hippies, the second in the form of a tarot card reading - it is not so much a book about the 1960s as a direct channelling of the decade's energies, bringing to life how even the smallest and dreariest of working class towns felt so full of possibility in the wake of the psychedelic moment. Via artefacts from the time - everything from poetry chapbooks, record reviews and musical instruments through bubblegum wrappers, bicycle repair kits and mysterious cassette recordings - the book opens out into adventures along the hippy trail in Afghanistan and behind the Iron Curtain that leads a cast of new and returning characters - as well as the authorities - to believe that they are literally making magic. Simultaneously a forensics of the 1960s, a detective novel, an occult thriller, a vision quest, and the hallucinatory exposition of a moment where it felt like anything was possible, Industry of Magic &amp; Life brings to life the streets of small working class towns as transformational sites of utopian joy.

'What a ride this is! A big wide book. An amazingly vivid piece of writing, from the hilarious to the horrifying and everything in between' BRIAN ENO Meet Seth Brakes. Musician. Reluctant romantic. Inherent troublemaker. Addict. And three hundred and twenty days sober. After a near-death experience, Seth is carving a new path for himself. Having reformed the band - the infamous Lucky Fuckers - things are looking up for Seth: gigs are falling back into the diary, he's in love and finally getting back to what he enjoys most: writing music. That is until his past starts to creep up on him . . . A dark comedy that is painfully honest, original and dynamically told, When I Died For the First Time is a raw account of a man tested his uppermost limits, hitting legendary highs and crashing to catastrophic lows. It's a tale of second chances, love lost and gained, and coming back to yourself: a story that stays with you long after you've turned the last page.

Transnational Studies in Jazz

Jazz and the Digital Revolution: GNP Records captures a transformative time in music history, the period in which digital culture took hold in the production, distribution and consumption of jazz. At the forefront of this epoch was the jazz-fusion label, GRP Records. Founded in the 1990s, GRP was Billboard magazine's number one contemporary jazz label. It had organised its recording, marketing and distribution practices around a full-scale digital philosophy, embodying the notion of jazz as a lifestyle brand. This books makes a case study of GRP Records in order to explore the relationship between jazz and digital culture, how this confluence gave rise to the 'smooth jazz' format, and how the industry negotiated cultural and technological shifts.

A study of Eyeliner's Buy Now, a vaporwave homage to the kitsch electronic sounds of the 80s and 90s.

Brimming over with fake wind-chimes, dreamy synth pads, and hyperactive slap-bass, Eyeliner's Buy Now is an ebullient homage to the kitsch sounds of the 80s and 90s. Self-released in 2015 on Bandcamp and on cassette by US label Beer on the Rug, the album has come to be regarded as a vaporwave classic. The perfect product for an anxious, hyperreal world, Buy Now poses the question: what is the appeal of the "fake" and "uncool" sounds of the past?

 Born in 1983, New Zealand computer-musician Luke Rowell came of age as the digital revolution upturned the music industry and helped shape the outlook of the millennial generation. Buy Now epitomizes a new kind of album for our times: DIY, all-digital, free, licensed as Creative Commons, and belonging to a "virtual" genre, an internet-based scene without geographic center. Drawing on the album's production archive and interviews with Rowell, this book argues that Buy Now offers both musical pleasure and mental survival-training for an era when sincerity and irony can appear dangerously indistinguishable.

Michael Brown undertakes a thorough study of Eyeliner’s Buy Now, a vaporwave homage to the kitsch electronic sounds of the 80s and 90s.

I Bet That You Look Good on the Dancefloor

"Examining anew the value of the documentation that missionaries accomplished, their interactions with the people and places they occupied, and their relationships with other kinds of observers, this volume is a much-needed corrective and an absolutely fascinating read that enriches the ethnomusicology of Indonesia and beyond."—Anne K. Rasmussen, author of&nbsp;Women, the Recited Qur’an, and Islamic Music in Indonesia "This fascinating collection of essays by historians, musicologists, literary scholars, and ethnomusicologists from around the world not only opens up the neglected history of Hindu, Buddhist, Muslim, and Christian missionization of the Indonesian archipelago, but also contributes to the decolonizing of its historiography. The book's wealth of data reveals new historical connections and insights that will confound conventional understandings of the region."—Margaret Kartomi, author of&nbsp;Musical Journeys in Sumatra

A free ebook version of this title is available through Luminos, University of California Press's Open Access publishing program. Visit <a href="https://doi.org/10.1525/luminos.223">www.luminosoa.org</a> to learn more. Although the history of Indonesian music has received much attention from ethnomusicologists and Western composers alike, almost nothing has been written on the interaction of missionaries with local culture. This study represents the first attempt to concentrate on the musical dimension of missionary activities in Indonesia. In fourteen essays, a group of distinguished scholars show the complexity of the topic: while some missionaries did important scholarship on local music, making recordings and attempting to use local music in services, others tried to suppress whatever they found. Many were collaborating closely with anthropologists who admitted freely that they could not have done their work without them. And both parties brought colonial biases into their work. By grappling with these realities and records, this book is a collective effort to decolonize the project of making music histories.

Missionaries, Anthropologists, and Music in the Indonesian Archipelago

The Fleury Playbook has been justly celebrated as the most comprehensive extant collection of medieval music-dramas, containing in a single manuscript examples of non-biblical miracle plays, and settings of the Nativity and Resurrection stories, together with accounts of the conversion of Paul and Mary Magdalene. In this the first full-length monograph on the Playbook, Wyndham Thomas places the collection in its historical, cultural and musical context. Each of the 10 plays is treated to a close dramatic and musical analysis and placed in its broader context of musical life in the twelfth century.

2018 will mark the 800th anniversary of the consecration of the Abbey of St BenoÃ®t-sur-Loire - or Fleury Abbey - the previous home and namesake of the Fleury Playbook, a collection of 10 medieval music-dramas that has long held been a source of fascination, and not a little perplexity, for scholars in a variety of disciplines: history, music history, literary studies, art history in particular. The Fleury Playbook has been justly celebrated as the most comprehensive extant collection of medieval music-dramas, containing in a single manuscript examples of non-biblical miracle plays, and settings of the Nativity and Resurrection stories, together with accounts of the conversion of Paul and Mary Magdalene.  In this the first full-length monograph on the Playbook, Wyndham Thomas places the collection in its historical, cultural and musical context. The first three chapters introduce and then explore the issues raised by the collection: following an introduction, chapter 2 is devoted to the history and traditions of the Abbey, making a persuasive argument for that institution as the original home of the collection, and perhaps the venue in which the plays were first performed. Chapter 3 discusses medieval saints’ cults, placing the dramas, and particularly the four devoted to St Nicholas, in this context. The remaining chapters are devoted to a close musical and dramatic analysis of the 10 plays themselves.

Ashgate Contemporary Thinkers on Critical Musicology Series

This collection of studies represents the range of Rosand's contribution to the history and criticism of music of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Varied in focus and scope, each of these studies is directed toward developing an understanding of the ways in which music works. Taken together, the articles demonstrate how Rosand has opened entirely new prospects on seventeenth-century music and offered new insight into the more canonical repertoire of the eighteenth century.

This collection of studies by Ellen Rosand represents the range of her contribution to the history and criticism of music of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.  Varied in focus and scope, each of these studies is directed toward developing an understanding of the ways in which music works--from its function in representing the ideals of the Republic of Venice through its essential role in the emerging genre of opera, from the expressive mechanics of Monteverdi and Cavalli to those of Handel and Vivaldi.  With methodological flexibility, Rosand's analyses are responsive to the works themselves.  Exploring the mimetic significance of particular formal motifs and scenic conventions, the intimate relationship of music and text, or a composer's dramatic choices, discovering a new musical personality (Barbara Strozzi) or the historical and cultural circumstances, the practical and creative dynamics of an emerging dramatic art (opera in Venice), she has opened entirely new prospects on seventeenth-century music and offered new insight into the more canonical repertoire of the eighteenth century.
