Sonic Signatures is an interdisciplinary collaboration of scholars
and music-makers who come together to explore how music makes
cities. More specifically, they argue that the musical
encounter, composed of an array of production and consumption
practices, takes on particular and essential meaning at
night. Thinking about music as an encounter allows one to
appreciate the value and power of migration within the act of
music-making. The majority of voices amplified in the book come
from so-called “migrants,” understood as someone who was
born in one country and currently lives and works in another. Yet,
these words, migration, migrant and migrancy, are more
expansive than that as they indicate a range of movement,
politics and place-making. Contributions from Emilie Amrein, André
de Quadros, Nick Dunn, Pol Esteve, Jillian Fulton-Melanson,
Jacqueline Georgis, Masimba Hwati, Ailbhe Kenny, Seger
Kersbergen, Brendan Kibbee, Áine Mangaoang, Derek Pardue, Nick
Prior, Austin T. Richie, Willians Santos, Sipho Sithole, Gibran
Teixeira Braga, Katie Young. A great, engaging transdisciplinary
contribution to nightlife studies, music and the city.
