  • Online Music Communities: Challenging Sexism, Capitalism, and Authority in Popular Music
    ONLINE MUSIC COMMUNITIES ONLINE MUSIC COMMUNITIES: CHALLENGING SEXISM, CAPITALISM, AND AUTHORITY IN POPULAR MUSIC By PAUL ALEXANDER AITKEN, B.FA. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts McMaster University © Copyright by Paul Alexander Aitken, September 2007 MASTER OF ARTS (2007) McMaster University (Music Criticism) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: Online Music Communities: Challenging Sexism, Capitalism, and Authority in Popular Music AUTHOR: Paul Alexander Aitken, B.FA. (York University) SUPERVISOR: Dr. Christina Baade NUMBER OF PAGES: vii, 167 ii ABSTRACT With its almost exclusive focus on the economics of the music industry, the early-21 st century debate over digital music piracy has obscured other vital areas of study in the relationship between popular music and the Intemet. This thesis addresses some of these neglected areas, specifically issues of agency, representation, discipline, and authority; it examines each of these in relationship to the formation and maintenance different online music communities. I argue that contemporary online trends related to music promotion, consumption, and criticism are, in fact, part of a much larger socio-cultural re-envisioning of the relationships between artists and audiences, artists and the music industry, and among audience members themselves. The relationship between music and the Intemet is not only subversive on the level of economics. I examine these issues in three key areas. Independent women's music cOlmnunities challenge patriarchal authority in the music industry as they use online discussion forums and web sites to advance their own careers. The tension that exists between the traditional for-profit music industry and the developing ethic of sharing in the filesharing community creates the conditions whereby we can imagine aItemative ways that music can circulate in culture.

  • Rezension Von Ralf Von Appen
    Samples Online-Publikationen des Arbeitskreis Studium Populärer Musik. 6. 2007. (www.aspm-samples.de/Samples6/vappen.pdf), Version vom 7.9.2007 Joe Levy (Hg.) (2005). Rolling Stone ― The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time Robert Dimery (Hg.) (2006). 1001 Alben. Musik, die sie hören sollten, bevor das Leben vorbei ist Jim DeRogatis / Carmél Carrillo (Hg.) (2006). Hall of Shame. Die größten Irrtümer in der Geschichte des Rock'n'Roll Rezension von Ralf von Appen Früher war es ein beliebtes Gesprächsthema, über die zehn Alben zu debat- tieren, ohne die man sich ein Leben auf der berühmten »einsamen Insel« nicht vorstellen konnte. Zehn ― das schien eine so angemessene wie be- scheidene Zahl zu sein, die eigentlich nie in Frage gestellt wurde. Wer cle- ver war, der wählte Doppelalben wie Exile On Main St. oder The Beatles und hatte dann etwas mehr von seinem Survial-Kit. Im Zeitalter der CD erschien die Limitierung auf zehn dann schon einigermaßen fragwürdig. Wenn man die Hüllen zuhause ließ, passten neben dem Discman schließlich problemlos 30 CDs ins Handgepäck. Wie albern aber müssen einem heutigen Musik-affinen Teenager damalige Grübeleien über die Zusammenstellung der musikalischen Notration erscheinen, der das Haus selbst zum Zigaret- tenholen nicht ohne sein GPS-fähiges Foto-Handy verlässt, auf dem neben- bei auch die Weltjahresproduktion der Tonträgerindustrie Platz findet. Nicht, dass man die ganze Musik auch hören würde, aber es kann zumindest keiner behaupten, man sei nicht vorbereitet, wenn das GPS einmal versagt und man sich tatsächlich auf so einer blöden Insel ohne Funknetz wiederfin- det. Doch die bloße Masse des allzeit Verfügbaren lässt die Frage nach Aus- wahl und Reduktion nicht etwa veraltet, sondern nur noch dringlicher er- scheinen ― was auch der 80 Gigabyte iPod-Besitzer zugeben muss, wenn ihm auf der einsamen Insel eine maximale Akkulaufzeit von 20 Stunden bleibt.

  • PSCI 11 the Gospel According to U2 Winter Study 2008
    PSCI 11 The Gospel According to U2 Winter Study 2008 Professor Darel E. Paul PSCI 11 Stetson g19 Griffin 6 597-2327 TWR 10am-noon [email protected] Office Hrs.: Mondays 2:00pm - 4:00pm and by appointment Course Description It has been said that U2 is the "world's greatest rock band" – but is it also (unknown to most) the world's greatest – and most unusual – Christian rock band? This course explores the theology, spirituality and politics of U2 expressed through the group's songs, stage performances and human right campaigns. We will travel from the band's origins in the Shalom Christian Fellowship in Dublin to their overtly Christian second album October (1981); the culmination of their superstardom in Joshua Tree (1987); through their techno and ultra-ironic 1990s marked by Zoo-TV, PopMart and Bono's "mock the devil" phase as Mr. MacPhisto; and a return to their roots in All That You Can't Leave Behind (2000) and How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb (2004). Along the way, we will listen to a lot of U2, watch some videos and tour footage – but it's not all fun and games. We will also read serious theological and philosophical tracts on U2 lyrics and explore the band's complicated interweaving of faith, sexuality, grace, fame, doubt, justice, and the meaning of America in a way which makes them a surprisingly popular and poignant spiritual voice in our superficial and materialistic age. We will also delve into the group's human rights and social justice work, from Band Aid in the ‘80s to (Product)RED today, and in particular explore Bono's Christian social justice moorings.
