Download or read book Mixtape Nostalgia written by Jehnie I. Burns and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2021-10-19 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mixtape Nostalgia: Culture, Memory, and Representation tells the story of the mixtape from its history in 1970s bootlegging to its resurgence as an icon of nostalgic analog technology. Burns looks at the history of the mixtape from the early 1980s and the rise of the cassette as a fundamental aspect of the music industry. Stories from music fans collecting hip hop mixtapes in the Bronx or recording songs off the radio permeate the book. She discusses the continued contemporary appeal of the mixtape as musicians, novelists, memoirists, playwrights, and even podcasters have used it as a metaphor for connection and identity. From Rob Sheffield’s Love is a Mix Tape to Questlove’s Mixtape Potluck Cookbook, Burns analyzes how the mixtape can function as a plot point, a stand-in for emotional connection, or an organizing structure. The book shows how creators use the iconography of the mixtape cassette to create ephemera, from coffee subscriptions to board games, which speaks to the appreciation of the tangible and the analog. The desire to find connection through sharing a physical artifact permeates the various creative uses of the mixtape. From blockbuster films like Guardians of the Galaxy to mixtape throw pillows, Burns highlights the mixtape as a site of collective memory tied to youth culture, community identity, and sharing music.
Download or read book What s Tha Up To This Time written by Martyn Johnson and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2014-11-30 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Authentically capture[s] the realities of the sixties and seventies policing in Britain . . . a fascinating and endearing book, full of character and nostalgia.” —Firetrench As with his previous two volumes, the bestselling What’s Tha Up To? and What’s Tha Up To Nah?, Martyn Johnson has written this book from the heart, not so much nostalgia as a genuine feeling for the people, animals, places and history of Sheffield. From naked young ladies at Wentworth Woodhouse to suspicious scrapyards and second-hand shops, shoplifters, burglars and pickpockets, Martyn takes you on an amazing journey through an almost lost world of crime and characters. Meet George and Albert Bloggs, Sadistic Sid, Mr. Cellarman, Twirls the key man, Mr. Furnaceman, Mr. Handcuff-man; and not forgetting Big Ginge and the most glamorous of all, “Diana Dors.” Why not let Martyn tell you about his hilarious “contemporaneous” court experience and the day he became Lester Piggot and a very reluctant sea fisherman. Whether it’s the story of the dodgy unisex haircut, the mystery of the lost fingers or insights into the Dog and Partridge characters or Banners Department Store, there’s something of interest for everyone inside this book. Humor apart, Martyn’s empathy and feeling for the people of Sheffield and South Yorkshire shines through the pages, including some sad and difficult cases and times. “Sometimes the front line bobbies’ accounts of what they had to deal with during the course of their duties is more interesting than what goes on in TV adaptations of police dramas. Martyn Johnson’s second collection of memoirs is equally as entertaining as his first, and will delight anyone who reads it.” —Books Monthly
