BY ALEX ROSS Parts of “Hopscotch” are staged inside a fleet of limousines. Other scenes take place on rooftops and in city parks. CREDITPHOTOGRAPH BY ANGIE SMITH FOR THE NEW YORKER Jonah Levy, a thirty-year-old trumpet player based in Los Angeles, has lately developed a curious weekend routine. On Saturday and Sunday mornings, he puts on a white shirt, a black tie, black pants, and a motorcycle jacket, and heads to the ETO Doors warehouse, in downtown L.A. He takes an elevator to the sixth floor and walks up a flight of stairs to the roof, where a disused water tower rises an additional fifty feet. Levy straps his trumpet case to his back and climbs the tower’s spindly, rusty ladder. He wears a safety harness, attaching clamps to the rungs, and uses weight-lifting gloves to avoid cutting his palms.

  • Continuity and Change in the Relationship Between Popular Music, Culture, and Technology: an Introduction
    CHAPTER 1 Continuity and Change in the Relationship Between Popular Music, Culture, and Technology: An Introduction Tamas Tofalvy Introduction The origins of the relationship between technology and popular music go back as far as the initial formation of popular music itself, and the begin- nings of the music industry (Braun 2002;Frith1986). With the advent of sound recording and reproduction, radio and electricity enabled the transformation of the practices of music production, consumption, and sharing in various different ways. The spread of recorded music empow- ered the sale and distribution of music as a product independent from live performances (Burnett 1992), and related to this, the record label and the “traditional” music business model were born. The traditional record label structure was created and maintained with the aim of sell- ing as many recorded music items as possible. Business models, industry strategies and music consumption preferences are intertwined with the T.

  • Popular Music, Technology, and the Changing Media Ecosystem from Cassettes to Stream
    POP MUSIC, CULTURE AND IDENTITY Popular Music, Technology, and the Changing Media Ecosystem From Cassettes to Stream Edited by Tamas Tofalvy · Emília Barna Pop Music, Culture and Identity Series Editors Steve Clark Graduate School Humanities and Sociology University of Tokyo Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo, Japan Tristanne Connolly Department of English St Jerome’s University Waterloo, ON, Canada Jason Whittaker School of English & Journalism University of Lincoln Lincoln, Lincolnshire, UK Pop music lasts. A form all too often assumed to be transient, commer- cial and mass-cultural has proved itself durable, tenacious and continually evolving. As such, it has become a crucial component in defining various forms of identity (individual and collective) as influenced by nation, class, gender and historical period. Pop Music, Culture and Identity investigates how this enhanced status shapes the iconography of celebrity, provides an ever-expanding archive for generational memory and accelerates the impact of new technologies on performing, packaging and global market- ing. The series gives particular emphasis to interdisciplinary approaches that go beyond musicology and seeks to validate the informed testimony of the fan alongside academic methodologies.

He was playing in a large bar that reminded me of one of those ubiquitous Chinese restaurants, bare of furnishings, with very low ceilings and gray Formica-topped tables scattered everywhere, as far as you could see. However, at first I could see nothing because the place was so packed. My brother Dan and I managed to squeeze through the small front door and kind of flatten ourselves up against the back wall. It was standing-room only and all I could see were the heads of folks standing in front of me extending all the way to the stage somewhere way up front. But then I heard it, the sound of a human voice, a sheet of sound that shimmered like free-fall water falling.
