Andrew N. Weintraub. Dangdut Stories: A Social and Musical History of Indonesia's Most Popular Music. New York, NY: Oxford University Press, 2010. Photographs, musical notation, glossary, bibliography, index. 258+ pp. R. Anderson Sutton At last, a book on dangdut, and an excellent one. It is hard to imagine that anyone with experience in Indonesia over the past thirty-five years could be unaware of dangdut and its pervasive presence in the Indonesian soundscape. The importance of this music was first recognized in the international scholarly world by William Frederick in his landmark article on Rhoma Irama in the pages of this journal almost thirty years ago.1 Other scholars have devoted chapters to dangdut,2 but it is only with this meticulously researched and engagingly written book-length study by Andrew Weintraub that we have the important combination of perspectives—historical, musicological, sociological, gender, and media/cultural studies—that this rich and multifaceted form of expression deserves. Weintraub offers this highly informative study under the rubric of "dangdut stories," modestly pointing to the "incomplete and selective" nature of the stories he tells. But what he has accomplished is nothing short of a tour de force, giving us a very readable history of this genre, and untangling much about its diverse origins and the multiplicity of paths it has taken into the first decade of the twenty-first century. Near the outset, following three telling vignettes of dangdut events he observed, Weintraub explains that the book is a "musical and social history of dangdut within a range of broader narratives about class, gender, ethnicity, and nation in post independence Indonesia" (p. -

The term "world beat" was first used by the musician and DJ Dan Del Santo in 1983 for his syncretic hybrids of American R&B, URI : https://id.erudit.org/iderudit/1014442ar Afrobeat, and Latin popular styles. 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). Applications range from the musical fusions between jazz and Aller au sommaire du numéro non-Western musics to a marketing category used to sell almost any music outside the Western mainstream.

1 What Is World Music? Fact Sheet
1 What is World Music? Fact Sheet If you’re wondering just what in the world is World Music, don’t worry or stress; it’s not a mystery, it’s just a term we use. World Music or global music, is music from all over the planet, right? Well, you would be correct, except it usually doesn’t include any music that would fit in a regular Top 40 pop chart! The term “World Music” was coined by an ethnomusicologist named Robert Brown. He developed college programs of study about World Music, and organized a concert series with visiting performers from Africa and Asia. In 1982, France initiated World Music Day (“Fête de la Musique”) which would continue on June 21st of every year to the present day. The genre didn’t really take off until June 29, 1987, when a group of record company executives got together. They were meeting because they were trying to deal with the unexpected surge in non-English language recordings. These record label executives were having a difficult time finding rack space in their stores for new releases from LatinAmerican, Asian, African, and other international artists. They needed to develop a catchy generic, “umbrella” name for this music, and launch a marketing campaign. With a show of hands, World Music was officially born as a genre, and October 1987 was designated “World Music Month!” Leading up to this new genre Paul Simon had released the album Graceland in 1986 which was a huge success and featured artists from southern Africa, including Ladysmith Black Mambazo. -
Leon Russell – Primary Wave Music

A similar eclecticism and scope also surfaced in his solo work, which couched his charmingly gravelly voice in a rustic yet rich swamp pop fusion of country, blues, and gospel. Born Claude Russell Bridges on April 2, 1942, in Lawton, Oklahoma, he began studying classical piano at age three, a decade later adopting the trumpet and forming his first band. At 14, Russell lied about his age to land a gig at a Tulsa nightclub, playing behind Ronnie Hawkins & the Hawks before touring in support of Jerry Lee Lewis. Two years later, he settled in Los Angeles, studying guitar under the legendary James Burton and appearing on sessions with Dorsey Burnette and Glen Campbell. As a member of Spector’s renowned studio group, Russell played on many of the finest pop singles of the ’60s, also arranging classics like Ike & Tina Turner’s monumental “River Deep, Mountain High”; other hits bearing his input include the Byrds’ “Mr. Tambourine Man,” Gary Lewis & the Playboys’ “This Diamond Ring,” and Herb Alpert’s “A Taste of Honey.” In 1967, Russell built his own recording studio, teaming with guitarist Marc Benno to record the acclaimed Look Inside the Asylum Choir LP. -
6-Wire World Music Ensemble
6-wire World Music Ensemble 6-wire is inspired by the historical connection between the erhu, the Chinese 2- stringed violin, and the 4-stringed violin – both essential leading instruments in the East and West. As a Chamber Music America grantee with unique instrumentation, the Delaware-based world music ensemble is a site-specific, pioneering American ensemble featuring 8 core members that mix traditional world music with pop and jazz elements.

Received: September 27, 2019 Accepted: November 4, 2019 Online Published: November 6, 2019 doi:10.20849/ajsss.v4i4.664 URL: https://doi.org/10.20849/ajsss.v4i4.664 Abstract With the booming popularity of the music industry today, there has been an equally increasing demand for new or refreshing music types. Over the years, this has a resulted in alternative/non-mainstream music genres gradually being accepted as popular music. To cater for the different tastes of music for consumers, in a world where advancement in technology has accelerated globalization to unprecedented levels, music Creators are producing music that have blurred the boundaries between music genres. On the other hand World Music is one that is seen by many as one which is routed in tradition. In that aspect, world music and popular music can be seen as two contrasting categories. Keywords: world music, pop music 1. Introduction Today, music that falls under the genre of world music takes up a tiny share of the music market, and only small group of audience still appreciate it. Many people just regard this genre of music as a research object in musicology department (Taylor, 1997). However, there are still some people who believe that world music plays a significant role in the development of Western popular music. -

Dicaire Eric 2019 Thesis.Pdf
Playing for Change: the Crystallization of Time, Space and Ideology in a Music Video from Around the World By Eric Dicaire A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Communication Supervisor: Boulou Ebanda De B’béri In the Department of Communication University of Ottawa © Eric Dicaire, Ottawa, Canada, 2019 PLAYING FOR CHANGE ii Abstract Online music videos have become a space for new cultural articulations. These articulations differ from one video to the next, as each instance mobilizes a particular set of production practices aimed at a specific purpose. From a theoretical standpoint, it is therefore challenging to qualify the broad cultural significance of these media objects. This thesis proposes a potential remedy to this issue, using a theoretical framework based on the theories of articulation, encoding/decoding, and crystallization to assess the cultural significance of an ideologically driven music video produced by Playing for Change—a not-for- profit organization with a mandate of uniting the world through music. These theories reveal how a cosmopolitan ideology is crystallized into the production practices of Playing for Change’s music video “One Love”. Through this theoretical mobilization, I examine the plurality of identities distilled in the music video, since it functions as a political, economic, and ideological object. These identities are crystallized on multiple levels, leading us to question whether complex articulations of this type can ever fully be conceptualized. Ultimately, I argue that the burgeoning field of music video studies must continue exploring theoretical models in order to develop adequate tools for analyzing the various elements, including discursive constructions, which characterize these complex, yet valuable, cultural objects.
