Media and Popular Music (Media Topics)

Media and Popular Music (Media Topics) Review



This book analyses the relationships between music and contemporary media, both via the mediation of music, and music as mediator. This will involve considering music as a means of understanding events, and also of establishing, confirming or subverting the 'meaning' of events.

Examining visual, print, radio and 'new' media, this textbook draws together disparate elements of music and media which formerly have not been considered together, and provides a fresh and innovative contribution to the swiftly growing field of popular music studies. Key topics are presented via chapter-long case studies and more broadly applied theoretical analyses.
