114. Geto Boys' The Geto Boys
115. Sleater-Kinney's Dig Me Out
Rolf Potts, Independent Scholar, USA
Jovana Babovic, University of Tennessee, USA
Charting the rise of the Geto Boys from the earliest days of Houston's rap scene, Rolf Potts documents a moment in music history when hip-hop was beginning to replace rock as the transgressive sound of American youth. In creating an album that was both sonically innovative and unprecedentedly vulgar, the Geto Boys were accomplishing something that went beyond music. To paraphrase a sentiment from Don DeLillo, this group of young men from Houston's Fifth Ward ghetto had figured out the 'language of being noticed' — which is, in the end, the only language America understands.

113. New Kids on the Block's Hangin' Tough Rebecca Wallwork, Independent Scholar, USA It has sold more than seventeen million copies worldwide since it was released in 1988. Today, hundreds of thousands of grown women still flock to New Kids’ concerts to hear the songs they first heard as fourteen year olds. Is this mere nostalgia or can the science of music help explain the enduring success? Musically speaking, is “Hangin’ Tough” actually any good? Wallwork sets out to analyze the quality of “Hangin’ Tough” with the help of musicologists, critics, producers, singers and other experts. Forget the fans, the dancing and the merchandise. For once, NKOTB will be judged on something that’s never been explored in depth before—their music.

111. Blondie's Parallel Lines Kembrew McLeod, University of Iowa, USA It mixed punk, disco and radio-friendly FM rock with nostalgic influences from 1960s girl groups, AM pop and surf rock and by embracing the diversity of New York City’s varied music scenes, this 1978 album embodied the social conflicts that played out between fans of disco, pop, punk and mainstream rock. Kembrew McLeod’s critical account of Blondie’s rise also doubles as an alternative history of 1970s American popular music. It challenges the conventional wisdom that dismissed disco as fluffy (and implicitly feminine) prefab schlock, while at the same time recuperating punk’s much less hip bubblegum influences.

Sleater-Kinney’s 1997 album Dig Me Out is built on Corin Tucker and Carrie Brownstein’s competing guitars, Janet Weiss’s muscular rhythms, and layered vocals that teeter between an urgent, banshee-like vibrato and a lower accompaniment. It’s anchored in a short period of time – roughly from mid-1996 to mid-1998 – but it encompasses a series of battles over meaning that continued to preoccupy SleaterKinney in the coming decades. This story of Dig Me Out chronicles how Sleater-Kinney won the fight to define themselves on their own terms – as women and as musicians – and, in the process, how they redefined the parameters of rock.

112. Grateful Dead's Workingman's Dead Buzz Poole, Independent Scholar, USA Released in 1970, the Grateful Dead’s Workingman’s Dead is cold-water-shock departure from the Acid Test feedback madness of the late ‘60s.The albums eight songs will serve as points of entry to discuss the recording process and how these songs speak to late twentieth-century America, and the attendant cultural anxieties that resulted from the idealism of the ‘60s through the uncomfortable realities of the ‘70s. Based on research, interviews, and personal experience, the book will probe the paradox at the heart of the band’s appeal: the Grateful Dead was simultaneously just about the music, and about so much more than just the music.

110. Miles Davis' Bitches Brew George Grella, Jr., Independent Scholar, USA Following the circumscribed grooves and ambiance of In A Silent Way and coming off a tour with a burning new quintet called "The Lost Band," Davis went into the studio with the best musicians of his era. Working with his essential producer, Teo Macero, Miles set a cauldron of ideas loose while the tapes rolled. At the end, there was the newly minted Prince of Darkness, a completely new way forward for jazz and rock, and the endless brilliance and depth of Bitches Brew. Bitches Brew is still one of the most astonishing albums ever made in either jazz or rock. Seeming to fuse the two, it actually does something entirely more revolutionary and open-ended: blending the most avant-garde aspects of Western music with deep grooves, the album rejects both jazz and rock for an entirely different idea of how music can be made.

109. Phish's A Live One Walter Holland, Independent Scholar, USA In 1995, as far as the media were concerned, Phish were a bizarre footnote to the rise of patchouliscented popstuff like Dave Matthews and Blues Traveler. Meanwhile, without a hit single to their name, Phish were well on their way to becoming the biggest concert draw in America, selling out ever-larger venues 200 nights a year with their ecstatically inventive live shows. Phish bottled that lightning on A Live One, it's challenging, experimental music that still doesn’t sound like anything else in rock—a strange and beautiful thing. It is the kind of music that otherwise sensible adults would drop everything and cross the country to hear night after night.

108. Metallica's Metallica David Masciotra, Independent Scholar, USA This is a must read for any Metallica fan, a fascinating and inspiring account of the creation of one of music’s best selling albums. With direct access to the band, Masciotra takes readers into the recording studio with Metallica’s account of how their most successful and famous record was born. Masciotra not only talks to the band about the making of the album, but also the stories that inspired the songs. Readers will not only learn about “The Black Album,” but they will gain greater knowledge and familiarity with the men who created it.

101. Can's Tago Mago Alan Warner, Novelist, UK Tago Mago is a hugely unique and influential album that deserves close analysis from a fan, rather than a musicologist. In this officially approved account, Scottish novelist Alan Warner details the concrete music we hear on the album as well as how it was composed, executed and recorded. Yet this tale of Tago Mago is more than just a history of the band; it is also the tale of a young man obsessed with record collecting in the dark and mysterious period of pop music before Google. Through a combination of Warner’s own experiences and interviews with the surviving members of the band (drummer Jaki Liebezeit, keyboardist Irmin Schmidt and bassist Holger Czukay) Can’s Tago Mago is a hilariously personal and illuminating picture of one of the biggest names in experimental rock.

107. Beat Happening's Beat Happening Bryan C. Parker, Independent Scholar, USA In 1985, Olympia, Washington band Beat Happening headed by the enigmatic Calvin Johnson released their eponymous debut of lo-fi pop songs on K Records and challenged every conception held about music. This book, structured in abecedarian fashion, breaks down the fundamental components that defined the album. Organized in a light-hearted yet incisive format, each of the book’s chapters details one particular facet of the record—band members, historic shows, recording sessions, songs, and ideologies. Here is the story of a band that popularized do-it-yourself home recording with four-track tape machines decades before the digital revolution would extend an open hand to garage bands.

106. Koji Kondo's Super Mario Bros. Soundtrack Andrew Schartmann, Yale University, USA In 1985, Koji Kondo’s Super Mario Bros. score utterly redefined the video game music genre. With under 3 minutes of music, Kondo put to rest an era of bleeps and bloops—the sterile products of a lab environment—replacing it with one in which game sounds constituted a legitimate form of artistic expression. On the 30th anniversary of the game, author Andrew Schartmann brings this brilliant addition to the world of both music and video game studies. First taking us through the various external factors that coalesced into a ripe environment in which Kondo's musical experiments could thrive—for instance, advances in technology, or Nintendo's marketing tactics—Schartmann then delves into the music itself, searching for reasons why our hearts still dance to the “primitive” 8-bit tunes of a bygone era.

Rumour and Radiation
Hearing the Continuum of Sound
Sound in Video Art
Salome Voegelin, London College of Communication, UK
Paul Hegarty, University College Cork, Ireland
Inspired by its use in literary theory, film criticism and the discourse of games design, Voegelin's dazzling new book adapts and develops Possible World Theory in relation to sound. David Lewis' Possible World is juxtaposed with Merleau-Ponty's Life-world, to produce a meeting of the semantic and the phenomenological at the place of listening.

Sound first entered the gallery via video art of the 1960s and created an unexpected noise. This formative period and its key figures form the basis of this book before Hegarty jumps to the mid-1990s, when video art had become such a major part of art production that it no longer seemed an autonomous form. Hegarty considers the work of artists including Steve McQueen, Christian Marclay, Ryan Trecartin, and Jane and Louise Wilson, proposing for each a different theory—connected by ideas of intermedia and synaesthesia—to offer a fresh perspective on the interactions between sound and the visual.

A Sonic Economy of Digital Space Stephen Kennedy, University of Greenwich, UK Kennedy investigates the concept of our digital space leading up to the digital turn of the 1990s to fully understand how our perceptions of orientation in space and time were altered. Kennedy introduces the concept of "Sonic Economy", a critical engagement with the heterogeneous elements of an information society wherein the dispersion of discrete elements is manifest but not always clearly visible.

Living Stereo Histories and Cultures of Multichannel Sound Edited by Paul Théberge, Carleton University, Canada, Kyle Devine, University of Oxford, UK & Tom Everrett, Carleton University, Canada Stereo is everywhere. The whole culture and industry of music and sound became organized around the principle of stereophony during the twentieth century. This groundbreaking book uncovers the vast amount of work that has been required to make stereo seem natural, and which has been necessary to maintain stereo's place as a dominant mode of sound reproduction for over half a century. With contributions from leading scholars across several disciplines, Living Stereo re-tells the history of twentieth-century aural and musical culture through the lens of stereophonic sound.

Against Ambience and Other Essays Seth Kim-Cohen, School of the Art Institute of Chicago Against Ambience diagnoses - in order to cure - the art world’s recent turn toward ambience. Over the course of three short months - June to September, 2013 - the four most prestigious museums in New York indulged the ambience of sound and light: James Turrell at the Guggenheim, Soundings at MoMA, Robert Irwin at the Whitney, and Janet Cardiff at the Met. There, these shows constituted a proposal about what we wanted from art in 2013. We deserve an art that is the equal of our information age. Not one that parrots the age’s selfassertions or modes of dissemination, but an art that is hyper-aware, vigilant, active, engaged, and informed.

Popkiss The Life and Afterlife of Sarah Records Michael White, Independent Scholar, UK During its existence from 1987 to 1995, Sarah Records was a modest underground successful label and, for the most part, a critical laughingstock in its native England. Popkiss is the book that thousands of obsessive Sarah Records fans around the world have been waiting for. Drawn from dozens of exclusive interviews with members of the 30-plus bands that called the label home, as well as Sarah co-founders Matt Haynes and Clare Wadd, it offers for the first time—a deeply detailed account of the label’s occasional triumphs and many tribulations, as well as its last laugh in posterity.

The Late Voice Time, Age and Experience in Popular Music Richard Elliott, University of Sussex, UK Offers new and innovative studies of a range of popular singers whose work is notable for its preoccupation with age, experience and lateness. The Late Voice undertakes such an analysis by considering issues of time, memory, innocence and experience in modern Anglophone popular song and the use by singers and songwriters of a 'late voice'. The Late Voice seeks to connect age, experience and lateness with particular performers and performance traditions via the identification and analysis of a late voice in singers and songwriters of mid-late twentieth century popular music.

Future Nostalgia Performing David Bowie
Popular Music and the Politics of Novelty Pete Dale, Manchester Metropolitan University, UK Popular music today has supposedly collapsed into a ‘retromania’ which, according to critic Simon Reynolds, brought a ‘slow and steady fading of the artistic imperative to be original.’ Pessimism prevails with regard to the aesthetics of the twenty-first century: popular music, supposedly, is in a rut. This book, however, demonstrates that the utilization of popular music to promote political causes and the expression of dissent through ‘popular song’ remain widely in practice today. The question is: How necessary is it for political popular music to offer aesthetic novelty?

Shelton Waldrep, University of Southern Maine, USA Although David Bowie has famously characterized himself as a 'leper messiah,' a more appropriate moniker might be 'rock god': someone whose influence has crossed numerous sub-genres of popular and classical music and can at times seem ubiquitous. By looking at key moments in Bowie’s career through several lenses, Waldrep examines Bowie's work in terms of not only his auditory output, but his many reinterpretations of it via music videos, concert tours, television appearances, and occasional movie roles in an attempt to trace his contribution to contemporary rock music.

Transglobal Sounds
Hip Hop, Political Development, and Movement Culture
Music, Youth and Migration
Edited by Christopher Malone, Pace University, USA, George Martinez Jr., Pace University, USA This collection takes the position that hip hop holds political significance through an understanding of its ability to raise cultural awareness, expand civil society’s focus on social justice, and engage in political activism. These essays assert hip hop’s importance as an “organic globalizer”: no matter its pervasiveness or reach around the world, hip hop ultimately remains a grassroots phenomenon that is born of the community it permeates. With an emphasis on interdisciplinary and diverse perspectives, The Organic Globalizer is the natural scholarly evolution of the conversation about hip-hop and politics.

Global Punk Resistance and Rebellion in Everyday Life
San Francisco and the Long 60s Sarah Hill, Cardiff University, UK The brief period of 1965-69 marked the emergence of the psychedelic counterculture in the HaightAshbury neighborhood in San Francisco. With references to historical accounts, communications from the counterculture, and retrospective glances from members of the 1960s Haight community, this book chronicles the impact this brief cultural flowering had and continues to have in San Franciscan and American culture. This book questions the standard historical narrative of the time, situating the popular music of the 1960s in the city’s contemporary artistic culture: at once visionary and hallucinatory, experimental and traditional, singular and universal.

Kevin Dunn, Hobart and William Smith Colleges, USA Argues that the global phenomenon of DIY (do-ityourself) punk provides a powerful tool for political resistance and personal self-empowerment. Drawing examples from the streets of 1976 London to the alleys of contemporary Jakarta, Global Punk looks beyond the music to explore DIY punk as a lived experience and examines the ways in which punk contributes to the process of disalienation and political engagement. Global Punk shows why DIY punk remains a vital cultural form for people across the globe today.

Experimentations
The Process That Is the World
John Cage in Music, Art, and Architecture
Cage/Deleuze/Events/Performances
Branden Wayne Joseph, Columbia University, USA
Joe Panzner, Ohio State University, USA
Experimentations provides analysis of the most important period of experimental composer John Cage’s aesthetic production. Paying particular attention to Cage’s engagements with the visual arts and architecture, the book sheds new light on some of Cage’s most controversial innovations, such as the use of noise, chance techniques, indeterminacy, electronic technologies, and computerization. Ultimately, it traces the development of Cage’s avant-garde aesthetic and political project from the emulation of precedents such as Futurism and the Bauhaus to its ultimate abandonment in the aftermath of problems encountered in the vast, multimedia composition of HPSCHD.

Experimental Music Since 1970 Jennie Gottschalk, Independent Scholar, USA What is experimental music today? Is it a historical event that refers only to John Cage’s influence, or does it have a greater spread and longevity? An experimental approach is not identifiable in specific sounds or techniques, and its scope would be drastically limited if it were judged on the basis of social or aesthetic groupings or self-identifications of composers. Experimentation is a way of working. It pushes past that which is known to discover what lies beyond it, finding new forms or accepting a state of uncertainty.

Into the Maelstrom: Music, Improvisation and the Dream of Freedom Before 1970 David Toop, Independent Scholar, UK Introduces free improvisation, the philosophy and practice of the music as well as its early history and context, asking how improvisation became possible for musicians and how spontaneity became a core value in the post-WW2 era. Toop analyzes the relationship between free jazz and the strand of free improvisation that sought to distance itself from jazz, making connections from 1960s rock bands such as The Beatles, Cream, and Pink Floyd to the post-John Cage era of indeterminacy in composition.

The vision of John Cage that emerges in this study is not just of the maverick composer or “inventor of genius,” but of a thinker responding to important insights about the world-as-process as it extends through the philosophical, artistic, and ethical registers: the world as potential for variance and permanent revolution. Cage is presented not just as a composer, but as a philosopher. His philosophy is not simply a novel method for composition, but an extensive argument about the nature of reality itself and the manner in which subjectivity and a self-creative world exist in productive tension with one another.

Postmodern Music, Postmodern Listening Robert Carl, University of Hartford, USA & Jonathan D. Kramer Kramer was one of the most visionary musical thinkers of the second half of the 20th century. Now, in his almost completed text written before his untimely death in 2004, he examines the concept of postmodernism in music and leads us to a strongly grounded intellectual basis for stylistic description and an intuitive sensibility of what postmodernism in music entails. Edited by Robert Carl with new essays by John Luther Adams, Martin Bresnick, and Duncan Neilson, among others, this text is an examination of how musical postmodernism is not just a style or movement, but a fundamental shift in the relationship between composer and listener.

After Sound Toward a Critical Music G Douglas Barrett, Independent Scholar, USA After Sound considers contemporary art that reconceives music beyond the limitation of sound. While musicology and sound art theory typically equate music with instrumental sound, Barrett posits music as an expanded field encompassing performance, text scores, musical automata, video, social practice, and installation. Coining the term 'critical music,' this book examines a diverse collection of art projects—Pussy Riot, Ultra-red, Hong-Kai Wang, Peter Ablinger, Pauline Boudry and Renate Lorenz, and others— that intervene in political and philosophical conflicts by exploring music’s forms. The book offers an alternative to the vexing choice between sound art and music.

‘I’m going to camp out on the land … try and get my soul free,’ Joni Mitchell sang on ‘Woodstock’. But Woodstock is only the tip of the iceberg. Popular music festivals are one of the strikingly successful and enduring features of seasonal popular culture for young people and older enthusiasts alike. From pop and rock to folk, jazz, and techno, under stars and canvas, dancing in the streets and mud, the pleasures and politics of the carnival since the 1950s are discussed in this innovative and richly-illustrated collection.

Low End Theory Sonic Rupture A Practice-led Approach to Urban Soundscape Design Jordan Lacey, RMIT University, Australia While urban soundscape design is often considered from the perspective of the negative health effects of noise, this book argues for a perspective that is based on the listening and musical relationships between creative sound practitioners, urban dwellers, and urban soundscapes. Urban sounds are considered both a political and mythopoetic medium that tends toward the homogenization of sound environments and listening experiences. In response, this book presents multiple soundscape design approaches encapsulated by an ‘ecological model of urban soundscape design’, which aims to diversify experiences and sound environments in urban spaces.

Rancid Aphrodisiac Subjectivity, Desire, and Rock 'n' Roll Mickey Vallee, University of Lethbridge, Canada What if the Rock ‘n’ Roll eruption was nothing less than postwar consumer capitalism at its very best, precisely because it was taken as its very worst? This book draws from Lacanian cultural psychoanalysis to answer this question, revealing that Rock ‘n’ Roll conformed with emerging liberal principles of freedom from the tyranny of the state. Vallee includes detailed analyses of familiar (and not-so-familiar) characters and texts in Rock ‘n’ Roll to suggest that the disruption of our symbolic economy was symptomatic of a new cultural logic of economic freedom.

Bass, Bodies and the Materiality of Sonic Experience Paul C. Jasen, Carleton University, Canada

The Arena Concert
This book probes the much-mythologized field of bass and low-frequency sound, both in music and beyond (including hauntings, laboratories, organ workshops, burial mounds, dancefloors, infrasonic anomalies, and a global mystery called The Hum). Low End Theory asks what it is about bass that has always fascinated us and made it such a busy site of bio-technological experimentation, driving developments in science, the arts, and religion. How does bass undulate and unsettle; how does it incite; how does it draw bodily thought into new equations with itself and its surroundings?

Lexicon of the Mouth Poetics and Politics of Voice and the Oral Imaginary Brandon LaBelle, Bergen Academy of Art and Design, Norway 'This is a breathtaking transdisciplinary accomplishment, beautifully written and deeply scholarly; it deftly re-focuses our attention on the multiform assemblages of the mouth—from the individual to the inter-subjective, from the social to the political, from the bodily interior to public spaces—and thus evokes a vital new cartography of auditory culture.' - Norie Neumark, La Trobe University, Australia Lexicon of the Mouth argues for the revolutionary promise of the laugh, the spirited mythologies of the whisper, the schizophonics of self-talk, and the primal noise of gibberish, suggesting that the significance of voicing is fundamentally bound to the exertions of the mouth.
