  • A Shared Strategy Between US Independent
    3.4. Songs for Cassateves (2001): A shared strategy between U.S. independent filmmaking and underground music scenes Maria Teresa Soldani1 Abstract 1991 was indicated by Dave Markey and Thurston Moore as “the year punk broke” in a film that documented the European tour of some indie bands: in 1991 “punk broke out” as a mass phenomenon of consumption, and, contemporaneously, was “broken, it should be fixed”, in reason of a damaged underground identity (Moore, 2011). This paper explores how Justin Mitchell’s DIY documentary Songs for Cassavetes contributed to fix the status of the so-called “American indie underground” (Azerrad, 2002). Mitchell portrayed with b/w 16mm film the shared milieu of the DIY scenes, as the K Records with Calvin Johnson in Olympia-WA, the community-based activity of the Make-Up in Washington-DC, plus several indie acts interviewed in all-ages venues. Furthermore, the film displayed the map as a key-tool for visualizing such scenes. This convergence between independent filmmaking and DIY spaces and practices suggested a way to restore the image of the underground scenes. Keywords: alternative/indie rock, undeground music scenes, independent filmmaking, 1990s, DIY. 1. 1991: The year punk broke It is a well-known fact that in the 1990s many U.S. indie2 bands as R.E.M. and Nirvana broke through the charts worldwide. They came from such music scenes as Athens, GA and Seattle, WA, where, at first, they were produced by independent labels as I.R.S., Sub Pop, and SST Records, and, afterward, signed with the majors.

For all you know, you could be strapped to some chair manifesting this world in your mind. “Dark City” takes this somewhat daunting theory to task. Director Alex Proyas, who did “The Crow,” came up with the idea for “Dark City” through dreams he had as a kid. He has made a film that I don’t doubt is everything he wanted it DARK SHITTY to be, but is the bittersweet genius of this film. “Dark City” is flawed for a few reasons. The film’s music is too imposing and present. The opening is literally drowning in music that doesn’t belong.

Participant observation, in-depth interviews, and a short latent content analysis triangulate data to show the features and values of the underground art world. Using Becker’s concept of art worlds, I show how artists working outside of a traditional art career in a commercial gallery system do their work by exploring how Portland’s art world is structured and sustained.
