This book is a journey ¿ a ride through the depths of Germany¿s modern musical roots:At the beginning of the 1970s, experimental and progressive music in Germany developed far from the mainstream. Although few initially noticed it, it is now internationally celebrated as a cult phenomenon called ¿Krautrock¿. Today, bands like Kraftwerk, Can, Amon Düül II, NEU!, Cluster, and Tangerine Dream are considered pioneers of groundbreaking sound experiments.In order to understand the Krautrock era and its impact, it¿s worth delving deeper into the history of German rock music and taking a closer look at the overall picture.Times & Sounds offers a comprehensive insight into the mechanisms of post-war Germany¿s music industry and sheds light upon its diverse musical styles, as well as their mutual influences and connections, which have received little attention until now: From the onset of German Jazz and Swing orchestras to the first Rock ¿n` Roll bands around Hamburg`s Star Club and electronic synthesizer pioneers. From the intact world of Schlager to agitprop and left-wing protest songs. From the avant-garde compositions of Stockhausen and his presumed disciples of Krautrock to the Neue Deutsche Welle.This book is a journalistic diary tracing Germany¿s dynamic culture from the late 40s to the early 90s. Those who take this journey experience the ups and downs of five decades, thus developing an understanding deeper than any other of the Krautrock phenomenon.

"It will make you want to form a band, it will make you angry, it will make you laugh, and it will educate you." - Gina BirchDrawing on more than 270 original interviews with female artists and women working behind the scenes in A&R, marketing, music publishing, and production, SheBop presents a feminist history of women in popular music, from 1920s blues to the present day.

Since She Bop was first published in 1995, digital downloading has transformed the music landscape. But has the issue of gender inequality changed too? In a new introduction and closing chapter, O'Brien celebrates the rise of unique women such as Lizzo and Billie Eilish, who are bursting through and creating new possibilities for female artists, while also looking at the struggles of artists like Kesha, and wondering whether the pop industry has had its #MeToo moment yet.- Published to celebrate the original book's 25th anniversary - and in a year that also marks 50 years of Women's Liberation.- This new She Bop will appeal to a huge cross-section of readers, from music fans to the LGBT audience andwomen of all generations.

En samling af analyserende og autentiske historier om berømthedernes mørke sider i anonymiseret form, inspireret af videnskab af den canadiske mikrosociolog, Erving Goffman (1922-1982) For fans tjener bogen som en advarsel om eller en forberedelse på, at nogle idoler er blevet så arrogante eller rige og storhedsvanvittige af deres hurtigt opnåede berømmelse, at man kan komme til skade af at møde dem. For folk der har en drøm om at blive kærester eller gift med en berømthed eller en berømtheds barn, tjener bogen som en forberedelse på, hvad man kan risikere at opleve og risikere at må finde sig i, i forholdet eller ægteskabet. For folk der har en drøm om at blive eller er blevet berømte, tjener bogen som en forberedelse på eller en påmindelse om, hvilke farlige fristelser man møder i sit sind og ude i omgivelserne som berømt og hvordan omgivelserne ser på det, hvis man mister kontrollen over sin egen status som berømt.
