The project puts media and cultural studies into conversation with constructivist approaches to technology by looking at the material practices behind such styles as Punk, Hardcore, Metal, and Industrial. These genres have traditionally been studied as reception subcultures but have yet to be systematically treated as subcultures of production. I believe that this is a key area of study in the digital era as the lines between producers and consumers, artists and audiences, become hazier. In effect, above and beyond exploring these genres and subcultures, the aim is to conceive a mode of thinking appropriate to understanding aesthetic judgment vis-à-vis the evolving life of sound in a technologized, mass-mediated culture. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGMENTS……………………………………………………..………..ix 1.0 INTRODUCTION………..………………………………………………………....1 2.0 THE BIZARRE SITE OF TRAVELING SPEAKER-MUSIC…………......……9 2.1 POST-MARXIST CULTURAL STUDIES OF POPULAR MUSIC..……........11 2.1.1 Regarding Recording Studios as Musical Instruments………….............15 2.1.2 DJ Lessons: (Re)Mixing, Technology, and Cultural Power…….............17 2.1.3 Engineer as Entrepreneurial Collaborator……………………………….19 2.1.4 Home Computers: The People’s Instrument?…………………..……….24 2.2 LISTENING TO SPEAKER-MUSIC…………………………………….........29 2.2.1 Getting to Know Speaker-Music………………………………………..32 2.2.2 Monitoring Techniques…………………………………………………37 2.2.3 Forces of Circulation and Reception in the Moment of Production…….43 2.2.4 Show and Tell: Why Talk When You Can Listen?……………………..46 2.3 QUESTIONS OF AURA: RECORDING AS REPRESENTATION………….51 2.3.1 Records are not Recordings……………………………………..............54 v 2.3.2 Aura Transferal……………………………………………………...…..56 2.3.3 Toward a Phonogrammatic Understanding……………………………..59 2.3.4 In Your Face: Heaviness as Phonogrammar…………………………….67 2.4 CONCLUSION: THE EAR, NOT THE GEAR………………………………..70 3.0 DEMONSTRATING D-BEAT: A STUDY IN HOME RECORDING…….......76 3.1 PRODUCTION VALUES AND THE STUDY OF POPULAR MUSIC……...77 3.1.1 Cobra in the Kitchen…………………………………………………….79 3.1.2 A Microphonics of the Drum Kit………………………………………..82 3.1.3 Four-Tracking: Drum Tone as Genre-Object…………………………...86 3.2 LIVENESS ON RECORD…………………………………………….………..91 3.2.1 Managing Multi-Track Isolation………………………………………...92 3.2.2 Something is not Clicking……………………………………………….95 3.3 CONCLUSION: SUCCESS AND FAILURE IN THE DEMONSTRATION MODE OF RECORDING……………………………………….......................97 4.0 REBIRTH OF HARDCORE PRIDE: (RE)PRODUCING SUBCULTURAL AUTHENTICITY………………………………………………………………...104 4.1 POST-PUNK STUDIES: IF ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE, WHY THIS?.........106 4.1.1 Punk is Dead……………………………………………………………108 4.1.2 Long Live (Hardcore) Punk!……………………………………………110 4.1.3 Think Like a House of Dudes………………………...………...............115 4.2 RECORDING AUTHENTICALLY…………………………………...……...125 4.2.1 Analog Integrity………………………………………………...............126 4.2.2 Staging a Vibe…………………………………………………………..134 vi 4.3 CONCLUSION: THE RAW AND THE PRODUCED…………….………...142 5.0 THE POP CULTURE MASSACRE: A CASE OF INDUSTRIAL MUSIC PRODUCTION………………..……………………..…………………………...146 5.1 LESS ROCK, MORE SHOCK…………………………………………..........149 5.1.1 A Brief Survey of Industrial Shock Tactics…………………………….151 5.1.2 Heavy Cheese…………………………………………………...............156 5.1.3 The Baby Jesus Abortion and Other Questionable Concepts…………..159 5.2 AESTHETIC ISSUES IN ELECTRO-INDUSTRIAL MUSIC PRODUCTION..................................................................................................166 5.2.1 Get with the Program: On Digital Music Production…………………..168 5.2.2 Mixing Fictions…………………………………………………………177 5.2.3 Mapping (Post)Industrial Territories…………………………………...186 5.3 CONCLUSION: DIGITAL RESISTANCES…………………………………190 6.0 BLACKER THAN DEATH: MAKING METAL SATANIC………………….192 6.1 SATANIC MUSIC FOR SATANIC PEOPLE ……………………………….193 6.1.1 Civitas Diaboli: Fantasies of Satanic People…………………………...195 6.1.2 Diabolis in Musica: Fantasies of Satanic Music………………………..203 6.2 INTRODUCTION TO EXTREME METAL GENEALOGY…………….…..207 6.2.1 Heavy Metal and the Genre that Never Was…………………...............209 6.2.2 After Death: Norwegian Meddle…………………………….................214 6.2.3 ‘C’ is for ‘Cookie’, ‘Chaos’, and ‘Crisis’………………………………217 6.3 SO BAD, IT HAS TO BE GOOD: TOWARD A BLACK CODE …..………220 6.3.1 There is No Meta(l)-Language………………………………………….232 vii 6.3.2 Scenius at Work………………………………………………………...236 6.4 CONCLUSION: SUBCULTURAL PLEASURES, SATANIC AND OTHERWISE ……………………………………..………………………….241 BIBLIOGRAPHY..……………………………………………………………………247 viii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS My advisor, Henry Krips, and committee members, Jonathan Sterne, John Poulakos, and Andrew Weintraub, made significant contributions to the writing and editing of this project. The support and guidance of these individuals had an immeasurable impact on my work, including but not limited to the development and execution of this project. The interdisciplinary nature of my research undoubtedly bears the markings of my studies with these scholars for whom I am most sincerely thankful. In addition to faculty mentors, I have benefited from working with close colleagues. Particularly, I am indebted to Hugh Curnutt for his trusted and valued advice, and I am grateful for Cate Morrison’s constant, unflagging support throughout this process. Many others have contributed in their own way to the work appearing here, including Jesse Reyes, Scott Francis, Mark Porrovecchio, Damien Pfister, Alex Reed, and Carmen McClish. I cannot imagine undertaking a project such as this without the friendship and feedback provided by these people. Equally important are those outside of academe who graciously granted me access to their worlds. The cooperation of Mark Alan Miller at Slaughterhouse Studio was instrumental in providing a base for my study, as was that of the bands, Wrath Cobra, Rampage, and Circus of Dead Squirrels. Thanks are also due to other professionals consulted during my research, including Jeff Lipton and Jessica Thompson at Peerless Mastering, Jim Fogarty at Zing Studios, and Larry Luther at Mr. Smalls Studios ix 1.0 INTRODUCTION Media and cultural studies are entranced with music subcultures and the access that they promise to texts that are more authentic than mainstream, commercial culture. But what, exactly, are the material conditions for such work outside the mainstream? Furthermore, how do subcultural producers conceive of their authenticity within the moment of producing the kinds of texts that compel fans and those who study them? There has been an inordinate amount of attention given to people sometimes referred to within subcultures as ‘scenesters’, people who dress in the height of subcultural style, buy all the best, new albums, attend all the shows, and are otherwise nexuses of a local subculture’s social network. In classic sociological terms, scenesters are ‘early adopters’. The bulk of my first-hand experience with subcultures is with their more behind- the-scenes aspects: playing with bands, booking venues, promoting concerts, making t- shirts, courting record labels, and, more than anything, recording. These activities are far from the most visible aspects of subcultural life, much of it is done in private, away from what would be recognized as ‘the scene’, but it is indisputable that there can be no scene without the constant labor that goes into producing it. Moreover, the most essential work behind a music subculture is the production of that music, and this I found to be 1 conspicuously absent from most subcultural studies. In the simplest sense, this dissertation seeks to represent the labor of people who take the step beyond being a consumer of subcultural music and become producers. Beyond these issues, however, this dissertation speaks to a larger, arguably more difficult matter, namely, how to conceptualize the art of recording. It is now broadly accepted that recording studios are musical instruments, yet this claim remains largely unarticulated with concrete examples, and much less so with outstanding concerns stemming from the study of fan cultures, such as authenticity. In the following, the studio-instrument is explained through the example of recordists trying to communicate a ‘heavy’ aesthetic particular to their chosen genres.

    THE DOUBLE REED 103 Second Bassoon: Specialist, Support, Teamwork Dick Hanemaayer Amsterdam, Holland (!e following article first appeared in the Dutch magazine “De Fagot”. It is reprinted here with permission in an English translation by James Aylward. Ed.) t used to be that orchestras, when they appointed a new second bassoon, would not take the best player, but a lesser one on instruction from the !rst bassoonist: the prima donna. "e !rst bassoonist would then blame the second for everything that went wrong. It was also not uncommon that the !rst bassoonist, when Ihe made a mistake, to shake an accusatory !nger at his colleague in clear view of the conductor. Nowadays it is clear that the second bassoon is not someone who is not good enough to play !rst, but a specialist in his own right. Jos de Lange and Ronald Karten, respectively second and !rst bassoonist from the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra explain.) BASS VOICE Jos de Lange: What makes the second bassoon more interesting over the other woodwinds is that the bassoon is the bass. In the orchestra there are usually four voices: soprano, alto, tenor and bass. All the high winds are either soprano or alto, almost never tenor. !e "rst bassoon is o#en the tenor or the alto, and the second is the bass. !e bassoons are the tenor and bass of the woodwinds. !e second bassoon is the only bass and performs an important and rewarding function. One of the tasks of the second bassoon is to control the pitch, in other words to decide how high a chord is to be played.

    EDM (Dance Music): Disco, Techno, House, Raves… ANTHRO 106 2018 Rebellion, genre, drugs, freedom, unity, sex, technology, place, community …………………. Disco • Disco marked the dawn of dance-based popular music. • Growing out of the increasingly groove-oriented sound of early '70s and funk, disco emphasized the beat above anything else, even the singer and the song. • Disco was named after discotheques, clubs that played nothing but music for dancing. • Most of the discotheques were gay clubs in New York • The seventies witnessed the flowering of gay clubbing, especially in New York. For the gay community in this decade, clubbing became 'a religion, a release, a way of life'. The camp, glam impulses behind the upsurge in gay clubbing influenced the image of disco in the mid-Seventies so much that it was often perceived as the preserve of three constituencies - blacks, gays and working-class women - all of whom were even less well represented in the upper echelons of rock criticism than they were in society at large. • Before the word disco existed, the phrase discotheque records was used to denote music played in New York private rent or after hours parties like the Loft and Better Days. The records played there were a mixture of funk, soul and European imports. These "proto disco" records are the same kind of records that were played by Kool Herc on the early hip hop scene. - STARS and CLUBS • Larry Levan was the first DJ-star and stands at the crossroads of disco, house and garage. He was the legendary DJ who for more than 10 years held court at the New York night club Paradise Garage.

In contrast, the term "world music" was DOI : https://doi.org/10.7202/1014442ar coined independently by at least three different groups: European jazz critics (ca. 1963), American ethnomusicologists (1965), and British record companies (1987).

  • 2011-11-25 1. När Det Är Spelning På Nuclear Nation Brukar Det Komma
    Nuclear Nation Quiz - 2011-11-25 1. När det är spelning på Nuclear Nation brukar det komma mycket folk. Det gör det ibland även annars och då kan det bli långa köer som ringlar sig runt Linköping. Under tidigt 2000-tal kunde NN- besökare vid ett festtillfälle slippa kötristeseen och gå direkt in på festen förutsatt att de uppfyllde ett krav. Vad skulle två NN-besökare göra för att få gå före i kön? A: Bära likadana kläder B: Kunna texten till Headhunter utantill och sjunga den tvåstämmigt C: Vara fastkedjade i varandra 2. Ni befinner er just nu på synthquiz med den anrika synthföreningen Nuclear Nation, men det var inte helt självklart att vi skulle heta just så. Vilket annat namn fanns som förslag? A: Eclipse B: Solaris C: SUN 3. Apoptygma Berzerk gjorde 98 en spelning i Leipzig från vilken i alla fall en liten del kom med på skivan APBL98. Trots att bandet körde på som hårdast med en Depeche-cover som folk verkade uppskatta, så fick spelningen ett snöpligt slut. Men vad hände? A: Det utbröt en mindre en brand i ljudteknikerbåset pga. underdimensionerade elkablar. B: Spelningen råkade äga rum samma kväll som kraftverket Holzkohle fallerade, vilket ledde till Leipzigs hittills största elavbrott. C: Trots att Apoptygma ville köra en låt till, så stängde polisen ner konserten i förtid. 4. En inställd spelning är också en spelning brukar man säga och ett band som skulle ha spelat på NN för ett antal år sedan, men som tyvärr fick ställa in p.g.a. sjukdom var... ja, vilket band då? A: Covenant B: VNV Nation C: Tyskarna från Lund 5: Ett band som dock har spelat på NN är LOWE.

  • From No Future to Delete Yourself (You Have No Chance to Win)
    Journal of Popular Music Studies, Volume 25, Issue 4, Pages 504–536 From “No Future” to “Delete Yourself (You Have No Chance to Win)”: Death, Queerness, and the Sound of Neoliberalism Robin James University of North Carolina, Charlotte Introduction Death is one of the West’s oldest philosophical problems, and it has recently been the focus of heated debates in queer theory. These debates consider the political and aesthetic function of a specific concept of death— death as negation, failure, an-arche, or creative destruction. However, as Michel Foucault (1990) argues, death is an important component of the discourse of sexuality precisely because it isn’t a type of negation. The discourse of sexuality emerges when “the ancient right to take life or let live was,” he argues, “replaced by a power to foster life or disallow it to the point of death” (Foucault 138).1 “Sexuality is the heart and lifeblood of biopolitics” (Winnubst 2012: 79) because it—or rather, as other scholars like Laura Ann Stoler (1995), LaDelle McWhorter (2009), and Jasbir Puar (2013) have demonstrated, racialized sexuality—is one of the main instruments through which liberalism “fosters” or “disallows” life. So, insofar as it pertains to sexuality, death isn’t a negation or a subtraction of life, but a side effect of a particular style of life management. In late capitalist neoliberalism, “death” only appears indirectly, not as a challenge to or interruption of life, but as its unthinkable, imperceptible limit.2 What are the theoretical, political, and aesthetic implications of neoliberalism’sreconceptualization of death as divested, or “bare,” life?3 What if we reframe ongoing debates about queer death, futurity, and antisociality by replacing the punk metaphorics of “No Future” with the cyberpunk/digital hardcore mantra “Delete Yourself (You Have No Chance To Win)”? Asking the question in this way, I use some methods, concepts, and problems from queer theory to think about a few pieces of music; I then use my analyses of these musical works to reflect back on that theory.

  • Demons & Devils: the Moral Panic Surrounding Dungeons & Dragons
    Demons & Devils: The Moral Panic Surrounding Dungeons & Dragons, 1979-1991 by Austin Wilson Submitted to the Department of History of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for departmental honors Approved by: David Farber, Thesis Coordinator Sheyda Jahanbani, Committee Member David Roediger, Committee Member Date Defended: 4/24/2019 1 On June 9, 1982 Irving “Bink” Pulling committed suicide by shooting himself in the chest. His distraught mother Patricia Pulling attempted to find out what had driven her son to such extreme measures. In her search for answers she laid the blame squarely on Dungeons & Dragons (D&D), in which Bink had been heavily involved. Patricia Pulling started the organization Bothered About Dungeons and Dragons (BADD) in 1983. BADD crusaded against roleplaying games like Dungeons & Dragons. As she would argue in many works that she subsequently published, including her 1989 manifesto, The Devil’s Web: Who is Stalking Your Children for Satan?, Dungeons & Dragons was a dangerous game that put the lives and moral virtues of youths at risk by serving as an entry point to the occult.1 This paper will argue that there was a moment of crisis centered around the family in the period and the broader discussion of youth entertainment which allowed for BADD to gain traction. By examining pamphlets produced by BADD and Patricia Pulling’s appearance on shows like 60 Minutes the dogma of the group can be understood. By juxtaposing other pieces of media that a parent may have seen in the same period such as the senate hearing for parental advisory labels on music and anti-drug PSAs this paper will illustrate the ways that people were primed by other panics of the period to believe that D&D could be dangerous.

    FORORD Denne oppgaven har sitt utspring i kjærlighet til en musikkgenre, og etter hvert kjærlighet til miljøet rundt akkurat denne genren. Det var sånn den ble til. En stor takk til alle i miljøet som har kommet med talløse oppmuntringer underveis i prosessen med oppgaven, og som har bidratt med informasjon og synspunkter, stort og smått. Og for at miljøet finnes, selv om det var ukjent for meg veldig lenge og jeg trodde jeg var omtrent den eneste i verden som likte denne type musikk. Uten at tre travle popstjerner hadde stilt velvillig opp, hadde oppgaven manglet et viktig aspekt og svært viktig innsikt fra musikkverdenen som ikke menigmann uten videre kan ta del i. Tusen takk til dem for at de tok seg tid til å prate med meg og for at de trodde på prosjektet mitt. Gjennom sin musikk og sine bidrag til oppgaven har de vært en viktig kilde til både inspirasjon og motivasjon. 2 KAPITTELOVERSIKT 1. Innledning med problemstilling side 4 2. Metode side 7 3.
