Discos, clubs and raves have been focal points for the development
of new and distinctive musical and cultural practices over the past
four decades. This volume presents the rich array of scholarship
that has sprung up in response. Cutting-edge perspectives from a
broad range of academic disciplines reveal the complex questions
provoked by this musical tradition. Issues considered include
aesthetics; agency; 'the body' in dance, movement, and space;
composition; identity (including gender, sexuality, race, and other
constructs); musical design; place; pleasure; policing and moral
panics; production techniques such as sampling; spirituality and
religion; sub-cultural affiliations and distinctions; and
technology. The essays are contributed by an international group of
scholars and cover a geographically and culturally diverse array of
musical scenes.
