This book examines the collection and curation of music, and the
way digital streaming services are transforming the way we engage
with the media. The study foregrounds personal digital curation
techniques, rather than algorithms or technology, to acknowledge
the sustaining human agency involved in playlisting. The author
looks at Digital Service Providers such as Spotify, Apple and
Deezer, which offer their users not just access to large
collections of music, but also the opportunity to create and
maintain personalised consumption subsets such as playlists.
Positioning these current playlisting practices as a remediation of
significant cultural practices of the 20th century - such as
collecting records and mix-taping - the book highlights the
continuity of culture through media change, and the implications
for concepts of self and identity, society and sharing. Shedding
new light on this contemporary cultural phenomenon, this book will
be an important read for scholars who are interested in the area of
digital music from different disciplines such as communication,
digital humanities and social sciences in fields of media studies,
digital cultures, personal information management, digital curation
and popular music.
