Retromania - Simon Reynolds

simonreynolds

By:Larm har gleden av å presentere et live intervju med Simon Reynolds, en av vår tids mest toneangivende musikkskribenter.

Gjennom flere utgivelser, bl.a. om postpunken I “Rip it up and start again”, har han demonstrert en unik evne til å vurdere og analysere populærkulturen. Nå er han igjen høyaktuell med sin nye bok “Retromania: Pop Culture’s Addiction To Its Own Past”. Her tar han for seg popkulturens sterke trang til å resirkulere sin egen fortid. Hva skjer når vi går tom for fortid.

Simon Reynolds har utgitt totalt syv bøker. Han skriver jevnlig om musikk og populærkultur for en rekke publikasjoner, inkludert The New York Times, The Wire, Slate, The Guardian, Frieze, Los Angeles Times og Village Voice. Han er bosatt i Los Angeles
