Description

This volume explores the ways in which music scenes are not merely physical spaces for the practice of collective musical life but are also inscribed with and enacted through the articulation of cultural memory and emotional geography.

The book draws on empirical data collected in cites throughout Australia.

In terms of understanding the relationship between music scenes and participants, much of the existing popular music literature tends to avoid one key aspect of scene: its predominant past-tense and memory-based nature.

Nascent music scenes may be emergent and on-going but their articulation in the present is often based on past events, ideas and histories.

There is a noticeable gap between the literature concerning popular music ethnography and the growing body of work on cultural memory and emotional geography.

This book is a study of the conceptual formation and use of music scenes by participants.

It is also an investigation of the structures underpinning music scenes more generally.
