Synopsis: Music Production in the Music City considers how music is produced in specific urban contexts.Music Production in the Music City features four case studies from a diverse set of cities – Berlin, Nashville, Chennai, and Brisbane – to investigate how music comes to be created in locally specific music production contexts. These case studies inform a thorough examination of the various factors that shape music production practices specific to urban contexts. The author uses a new conceptual framework called the ‘undersong’ to analyse the aural foundations of a city, examining how policy design can help or hinder a productive music production scene.This is a cutting-edge contribution to music city studies, and will be of great interest to researchers, postgraduates, and advanced undergraduates studying music production and world music. This book will also be of interest to those involved in urban policy work related to the live and recorded music industries.
