Wired for Sound
The eighties was a golden era for British pop: Radio One served as the soundtrack of the nation; the chart run-down on Sunday evenings was compulsory listening - ditto watching Top of the Popsand reading Smash Hits. It also saw the launch of the Now That's What I Call Music series. In the States, the arrival of MTV helped usher in what became known as the 'Second British Invasion', echoing the success of the Beatles twenty years earlier. Wired For Soundtells the remarkable story of the great eighties British bands (and Kajagoogoo) and how their music captured the nation's imagination: the more radical beginnings in the early eighties (the new romanticisms of Duran and Spandau, the 'protest p...
Making a Green Machine
Making a Green Machine examines the development of the Scandinavian beverage container deposit-refund system, which has the highest return rates in the world, from 1970 to present. Finn Arne Jorgensen's comparative framework charts the complex network of business and political actors involved in the development of the reverse vending machine (RVM) and bottle deposit legislation to better understand the different historical trajectories empty beverage containers have taken across markets, including the U.S. The RVM began simply as a tool for grocers who had to handle empty refillable glass bottles, but has become a green machine to redeem the empty beverage container, helping both business and consumers participate in environmental actions.
Jan Garbarek Group
FÅ PLATETITLER STÅR med større skrift i den norske musikkhistorien enn Afric Pepperbird (ECM, 1970) med Jan Garbareks kvartett med Terje Rypdal, Arild Andersen og Jon Christensen. «De fire store» i norsk jazz i eksplosivt, nyskapende samspill i Arne Bendiksens studio i Oslo 22. og 23. september 1970, på den første av det som skulle bli flere hundre ECM-innspillinger i Norge, med plateselskapssjef Manfred Eicher og lydtekniker Jan Erik Kongshaug bak miksebordet. Her er endelig hele historien om denne historiske innspillingen, og dens store betydning for alt som skulle komme senere. Boka er også en feiring av kunsten å lytte, av magien som kan oppstå når musikere virkelig hører hverandre, og vi hører dem. Afric Pepperbird er skrevet av Jan Omdahl, en av Norges mest erfarne musikkskribenter og ECM-kjennere. Han har utgitt flere bøker, blant annet den kritikerroste a-ha-biografien The Swing of Things. Omdahl skriver ukentlig om teknologi, kultur og medier i Dagens Næringslivs magasin D2, og har vært en profilert penn i musikkaviser og dagspresse siden 1980-tallet.

The Routledge Companion to Popular Music Analysis: Expanding Approaches widens the scope of analytical approaches for popular music by incorporating methods developed for analyzing contemporary art music. This study endeavors to create a new analytical paradigm for examining popular music from the perspective of developments in contemporary art music. "Expanded approaches" for popular music analysis is broadly defined as as exploring the pitch-class structures, form, timbre, rhythm, or aesthetics of various forms of popular music in a conceptual space not limited to the domain of common practice tonality but broadened to include any applicable compositional, analytical, or theoretical concep...
