Noise as a Constructive Element in Music (Musical Cultures of the Twentieth Century)

Mark Delaere

4.9/5 (23513 ratings)

Description:At first glance, music and noise seem to be mutually exclusive. Music is generally considered as an ordered arrangement of sounds pleasing to the ear and noise as its opposite: chaotic, ugly, aggressive, sometimes even deafening. When presented in a musical context, noise can thus act as a tool to express resistance to predominant cultural values, to society, or to socioeconomic structures (including those of the music industry). The oppositional stance confirms current notions of noise as something which is destructive, a belief not only cherished by hard-core rock bands but also shared by engineers and companies developing devices to suppress or reduce noise in our daily environment. In contrast to the common opinions on noise just described, this volume seeks to explore the constructive potential of noise in contemporary musical practices. Rather than viewing noise as a 'defect', contributors explore its aesthetic and cultural potential. Within the noise music study field, most recent publications focus on subgenres such as psychedelic post-rock, industrial, hard-core punk, trash or rave, as they developed from rock and popular music. This volume includes work on avant-garde music developed in the domain of classical art music as well. In addition to already well-established (social) historical and aesthetical perspectives on noise and noise music, this volume focuses especially on contributions from music analysts. Including views on noise from Sound Studies and ethnomusicology broadens the scope of this volume even more.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
