I like Toop's approach, but the constant search for analogies to the thing (music) gets a bit tedious. Music has its own language, and can be analyzed by it. Toop is either ignorant of theory or he just thinks it's no longer relevant; either way, this is more like sociology than music studies. ( ) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Digital technology has changed the ways in which music is perceived, stored, distributed, mediated and created. The world of music is now a vast and complex jungle, teeming with CDs, MP3s, concerts, clubs, festivals, conferences, exhibitions, installations, websites, software programmes, scenes, ideas and competing theories. In the eye of the storm stands David Toop, shedding light on the most interesting music now being made ? on laptops, in downtown bars in Tokyo, wherever he finds it. Haunted Weather is part personal memoir and part travel journal, as well as an intensive survey of recent developments in digital technology, sonic theory and musical practice. Along the way Toop probes into the meaning of sound (and silence), offering fascinating insights into how computers can be used for improvisation. His wealth of musical knowledge provides inspiration for anyone interested in music. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
