Description

Intensive 320 page book written by Jerry Kranitz. Includes two CDs loaded with almost 160 minutes of Cassette-Culture / DIY Artists

The book takes a social history/analytical approach to the growth of the global cassette culture/homemade music network that sprouted and flourished from the post-punk era through the early 1990s. The author explores how the participants communicated, traded, collaborated, and set up cottage industry labels to distribute their work. A long overdue study of this pivotal yet less-than-comprehensively documented chapter in the post-punk and 20th century independent arts movement stories.
