| Abstract | "Tame Impala's psychedelic album Currents (2015) is emblematic of a cultural shift in music production and consumption in the early days of streaming and a project that cemented its creator, Kevin Parker, as one of Australian music's most unlikely success stories and influential exports. Currents transformed Tame Impala into festival-headlining, Gen Z idols and attracted popular acts, from Rihanna and Lady Gaga to Childish Gambino and The Weeknd. Parker made high-profile collaborations and contributed to production and engineering for a number of records in the 2010s. This book examines the context, creation, and lasting impact and importance of Currents in Australian popular music"-- Provided by publisher. |
