Redefining Mainstream Popular Music is a collection of seventeen
essays that critically examines the idea of the "mainstream" in and
across a variety of popular music styles and contexts. Notions of
what is popular vary across generations and cultures - what may
have been considered alternative to one group may be perceived as
mainstream to another. Incorporating a wide range of popular music
texts, genres, scenes, practices and technologies from the United
Kingdom, North America, Australia and New Zealand, the authors
theoretically challenge and augment our understanding of how the
mainstream is understood and functions in the overlapping worlds of
popular music production, consumption and scholarship. Spanning the
local and the global, the historic and contemporary, the iconic and
the everyday, the book covers a broad range of genres, from punk to
grunge to hip-hop, while also considering popular music through
other mediums, including mash-ups and the music of everyday work
life. Redefining Mainstream Popular Music provides readers with an
innovative and nuanced perspective of what it means to be
mainstream.
