There is a crisis facing music. The signs are everywhere, from the saturation of public space by tuneful trivia to the digital downloading controversy. Quantity has replaced quality.
Mat Callahan unravels and elucidates the crises facing music as well as its liberatory potential. The Trouble with Music includes discussions of technology and its effects on music making and listening; superabundance and the absence of critical thought; the development of radio; music criticism; copyright; the digital domain and the internet; labor and music making; and the special relationshps between words, dance, politics, and music. A large segment of the general public seeks a relationship to music, which turns an exceptional profit for those who own and control it. Callahan provides a means of evaluating music and a critique of the music industry.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor
Mat Callahan is a practicing musician, and currently lives in Berne, Switzerland, where his day job is as a record producer. As a member of the Looters, pioneers in 'world music,' he was signed to Island Records, and their self-titled LP sold 100,000. They were the first band ever to tour Nicaragua, following the revolution there, in 1980. Legendary founder of such seminal punk bands as Minor Threat, Embrace, Egg Hunt and Fugazi (Minor Threat and Fugazi have sold literally millions of records!). He is the owner of the fiercely independent Dischord Records, who celebrated their 20th anniversary a few years back. Editor of Rock and Rap Confidential and the most respected political commentators on music. Guitarist and singer in the band Chumbawamba.
