What happened was this; I left my job; I left my marriage and left my home; I fell in love with someone new, only to find that he was not at all the person he claimed to be. And then I lost my mind. This is an enquiry into the history, science and musicology of our love of sad music. It will follow the journey Laura made to Graceland, through the American South, looking at how different musical genres - from the blues to Sacred Harp, Gospel, Soul, Country and Rock treat the matter of sadness, and in doing so comes to understand her own. Beautifully written, moving and wide-ranging, Sad Songs explores the sacred role that music plays in our emotional lives.

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 1980s and 1990s.

Eyeliner’s BUY NOW (2015) belongs to a new genre for our times: vaporwave. Emerging in the early 2010s on the Internet, vaporwave originated with a cohort of millennial artists who reimagined the musical soundtracks of 1980s-1990s consumerism with an adroit mixture of irony and sincerity. One of these was Eyeliner, the alias of New Zealand computer musician Luke Rowell (a.k.a. Disasteradio). For his vaporwave masterpiece, Rowell harnessed computer software to craft a unique album, a catchy, funky, and witty tour through the utopias of advertising at “the end of history.” BUY NOW epitomizes a new kind of album for the Internet age: made DIY-style, all digital, free, licensed under Creative Commons, and released to a “virtual” community, an online scene without geographic center.

Drawing on original interviews and the album’s production archive, this book uses BUY NOW’s story to investigate what it means to create, distribute, and consume independent music in an era of global networks and digital technology. It places the album in both the real-world and online contexts of Rowell’s life and career, from early websites to the Spotify era, from Lower Hutt to the world.

Eyeliner's Buy Now

Hilton Als grew up in a corner of Brooklyn scarred by riots, racial segregation and sexual prejudice. As a young teenager, he began to glimpse possibility in the different cultures and ways of being he encountered through high school; in the black men and white men who found ways to be together. As a burgeoning writer in a Manhattan pulsing with new culture - with hip hop, Basquiat, nightclubs and new wave - Hilton at last came together with the gay family he had longed for. The timing was not opportune: reports of a 'rare cancer' were beginning to trickle through the press. Part autobiography, part reportage, part cultural criticism, I Don't Remember weaves the impossible story of queer America in the age of the AIDs crisis. It is an elegy like no other for an unsung generation of gay men: of heroic lovers and friends, visionary makers, artists and creators. By turns lyrical, wry, and exquisite in its poetic, rapid-fire storytelling, it sings a song of the necessity of connection, and the grandness of human endeavor, especially when it comes to loving, and being loved, in the face of social limitations, stigma, and unspeakable tragedy.

Object Lessons

Object Lessons is a series of short, beautifully designed books about the hidden lives of ordinary things. 

Triggering severe nostalgia and denoting adventure, mystery, and glamour, the passenger train is still portrayed as the most romantic mode of transportation in history. But what does long-distance travel by train really add up to today? In 2005, after quitting not only a successful museum job, but a profession, writer A. N. Devers bought a 30-day rail pass and circumnavigated the United States (and a bit of Canada), disembarking and visiting over a dozen towns and cities, finding that the passenger car was at once adventure and a nightmare-the promise of self-discovery and renewal via train trip was only a daydream.

Instead she emerged from her 8,111-mile journey with a close view of America's crumbling infrastructure and the decaying communities alongside the tracks. The train, it turns out, is a portal to what might have existed if America's rails hadn't been sold off and bought out.

Object Lessons is published in partnership with an essay series in The Atlantic.

Featuring original contributions from both established and emerging film scholars, these essays offer cutting-edge theoretical perspectives on a broad range of established and emerging topics in the field and reveal how evolving approaches to historiography, sexuality, and colonialism have shaped our understanding of Hong Kong film history.

Building on this theoretical framework, the volume explores various aspects of Hong Kong film culture within geographic, aesthetic, institutional, cultural, and scholarly contexts. Innovative and thought-provoking, A Companion to Hong Kong Cinema is an essential resource on the state of contemporary scholarship relating to one of the most dynamic cinematic traditions in the history of international film.
