The nature of community in the Newfoundland rock underground /Guy, Stephen January 2004 (has links)
Twenty-five years of independent, underground, or punk rock music-making in St. John's, Newfoundland, have been defined by geographic isolation. In tracing a historical record of the small city's punk/indie scene, this project seeks to evaluate recent academic discussion surrounding the role of collectivity in artistic 'independence' and examine the impact of prevailing international aesthetics and changing communication technologies on local practice. The self-containment and self-sufficiency of the St. John's music community, largely the product of the city's isolated position on the extreme eastern tip of a large island off the east coast of North America, provide a unique backdrop against which to foreground a discussion of the distance between indie/punk rhetoric and reality. I contend that 'scene' in popular and academic use refers to the casual aggregation occasioned by similar interest and shared location, while 'community' hints at effort, co-operation and productive support.

From rock'n'roll to hard core punk : an introduction to rock music in Durban, 1963-1985.Van der Meulen, Lindy. January 1995 (has links)
This thesis introduces the reader to rock music in Durban from
1963 to 1985, tracing the development of rock in Durban from
rock'n'roll to hard core punk. Although the thesis is
historically orientated, it also endeavours to show the
relationship of rock music in Durban to three central themes,
viz: the relationship of rock in Durban to the socio-political
realities of apartheid in South Africa; the role of women in
local rock, and the identity crisis experienced by white,
English-speaking South Africans. Each of these themes is explored
in a separate chapter, with Chapter Two providing the bulk of
historical data on which the remaining chapters are based.
Besides the important goal of documenting a forgotten and ignored
rock history, one central concern pervades this work. In every
chapter, the conclusions reached all point to the identity crisis
experienced both by South African rock audiences and the rock
musicians themselves. The constant hankering after international
(and specifically British) rock music trends both by audiences
and fans is symptomatic of a culture in crisis, and it is the
search for the reasons for this identity crisis that dominate
this work. The global/local debate and its relationship to rock
in South Africa has been a useful theoretical tool in the
unravelling of the identity crisis mentioned above.
Chapter Four focusses on the role of women in the Durban rock
scene and documents the difficulties experienced by women who
were rock musicians in Durban. This is a small contribution to
the increasing field of womens' studies, and I have attempted to
relate the role of women in rock in Durban to other studies in
this field. / Thesis (M.Mus.)-University of Natal, Durban, 1995.

Afrikaanse liedtekste in konteks : die liedtekste van Bok van Blerk, Fokofpolisiekar, the Buckfever Underground en Karen ZoidNell, Wendy Desre 02 1900 (has links)
Text in Afrikaans / Die doel van hierdie studie is om op die liedtekste van die kunstenaars, Bok van Blerk, Fokofpolisiekar, The Buckfever Underground (en Toast Coetzer) en Karen Zoid te fokus en om te bepaal wat hulle funksie in die eietydse Afrikaanse kultuurlandskap is, en wat hulle rol in die definiëring van kulturele identiteit is. In hierdie studie sal daar ook klem gelê word op die sosiopolitieke faktore wat tot die opbloei van die Afrikaanse musiekbedryf gelei het. Deur die analise van dié kunstenaars se lirieke, sal ek vasstel of hulle wel betekenisvolle werk van literêre gehalte lewer. Ek het spesifiek hierdie musikante gekies omdat hulle jong eietydse musikante is. / The purpose of this study is to focus on the song texts of artists, Karen Zoid, Fokofpolisiekar, The Buckfever Underground (and Toast Coetzer) and Bok van Blerk and to determine their function in today’s cultural reality, and whether these musicians and their music have an influence on today’s youth and their search for a Cultural Identity. This study will also focus on the socio-political factors that led to the rise of the Afrikaans Music Industry. By analyzing these artists’ lyrics, I want to determine whether they are significant works of literary quality. These musicians were chosen because they are regarded as young contemporary musicians. / Afrikaans & Theory of Literature / M.A. (Afrikaans)
