Sound Media considers how music recording, radio broadcasting and
muzak influence people's daily lives and introduces the many and
varied creative techniques that have developed in music and
journalism throughout the twentieth century. Lars Nyre starts with
the contemporary cultures of sound media, and works back to the
archaic soundscapes of the 1870s. The first part of the book
devotes five chapters to contemporary digital media, and presents
the internet, the personal computer, digital radio (news and talk)
and various types of loudspeaker media (muzak, DJ-ing, clubbing and
PA systems). The second part examines the historical accumulation
of techniques and sounds in sound media, and presents multitrack
music in the 1960s, the golden age of radio in the 1950s and back
to the 1930s, microphone recording of music in the 1930s, the
experimental phase of wireless radio in the 1910s and 1900s, and
the invention of the gramophone and phonograph in the late
nineteenth century. Sound Media includes a soundtrack on
downloadable resources with thirty-six examples from broadcasting
and music recording in Europe and the USA, from Edith Piaf to Sarah
Cox, and is richly illustrated with figures, timelines and
technical drawings.
