| Abstract | "Can music be made "independently" in the 21st century? More than a generation of musicians, music workers, and music companies have now been operating in the context of profound shifts in music dissemination and production in the "digital era." Scholarly focus on musical independence has often been centered on genres, like punk and indie, rooted in the US and UK. This volume, focused outside the Euro-American context, shows the variety of ways musicians, music workers and businesses manage the economic, media and cultural shifts intertwined with digitalization, asking what it means now to say one is "independent.""-- Provided by publisher. |
