In Groove: An Aesthetic of Measured Time, Mark Abel explains the
rise to prominence in Western music of a new way of organising
rhythm: groove. He provides a historical account of its emergence
around the turn of the 20th century and analyses the musical
components which make it work. Tracing the influence of key
philosophical arguments about the nature of time on musical
aesthetics, Mark Abel draws on materialist interpretations of art
and culture to challenge those who, like Adorno, criticise popular
music's metrical regularity.
