I'm going to order the Jeff Mills DVD from Amazon and I want to get either
another DVD (a music documentary maybe) or a good book
- I've worn out the spine on both my AMG Electronica and Techno Rebels
books - reading the AMG guide to Soul/R&B
checking my Amazon wish list I've got the following books lined up and
would appreciate feedback if anyone has read them:
"Love Saves the Day: A History of American Dance Music Culture 1970-1979"
"Site of Sound: of Architecture and the Ear"
"Architecture as a Translation of Music"
"Doing Our Own Thing: The Degradation of Language and Music and Why We
Should, Like, Care"
"Clubbing: Clubbing Culture and Experience"
"Beyond the Borders - Crossover in Creative Culture"
If anyone has any other good suggestions - I'm not really interested in
reading any "rave history/culture" books
I've read Simon Reynolds book already
I love any books that cross over the worlds/disciplines of music with
greater cultural/social studies, architecture, etc.
either that or some really brilliant DVD (Standing in the Shadows of
Motown, A Great Day in Harlem, etc.)
taking suggestions
