Description: In this short book the leading German cultural critic Diedrich Diederichsen puts forward a fresh and original account of pop music. He argues that pop music is not so much a form of music as a constellation of different media channels social spaces and behavioural systems of which music is only a part. Its own logic of attraction is based less on compositions and the expression of subjectivity and more on indexicality real or pseudo - involuntary effects as recorded by sound technologies and on studio discipline and staging and hence on performance. By elaborating his innovative account of pop music as a constellation Diederichsen develops a theory that distinguishes itself from sociology cultural studies media studies and ethnography while at the same time drawing on and encompassing them all.
