Musicians in the United States still seem to think so, flocking to auditions for .The Voice .and .Idol .brands or paying to perform at record label showcases in the hopes of landing a deal. The belief that signing a record contract will almost infallibly lead to some measure of success— the “ideology of getting signed,” as Arditi defines it—is alive and well.. . Though streaming, social media, and viral content have turned the recording industry upside down in one sense, the record contract and its mythos still persist. .Getting Signed. provides a critical analysis of musicians’ contract aspirations as a cultural phenomenon that reproduces modes of power and economic exploitation, no matter how radical the route to contract. Working at the intersection of Marxist sociology, cultural sociology, critical theory, and media studies, Arditi unfolds how the ideology of getting signed penetrated an industry, created a mythos of guaranteed success, and persists in an era when power is being redefined in the light of digital technologies. . | | 出版日期 | Book 2020 | | 关键词 | Marxist sociology; critical theory; music industry; digital culture; viral media; music industry studies; | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-44587-4 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-44586-7 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-44587-4 | | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
