DJing in New York

Learning Processes of Underground Club DJs

Eva J. Egolf,

About this book

DJing in New York depicts the initial learning processes of a group of underground Electronic Dance Music club DJs in New York and follows them throughout a portion of their career to gain insights as to what and how these popular musicians learn, develop careers, and thrive.

What unfolds is a story of a social process of musical learning in which DJs develop strong networks of friendship to initially learn their craft and later on to navigate the perils of nightlife and build careers. This type of situated learning is dependent upon friendships and is intrinsically linked to the dynamic context of an underground clubbing scene in New York. Enculturation in this nightlife scene, access to professional performers, and strong friendships distinguish these musical learners among popular musicians.

Because these features add a new dimension of understanding to the learning practices of popular musicians, this book is of primary interest to music educators, particularly those interested in popular music education and community music. It is also relevant to individuals interested in popular music studies, especially scholars of electronic dance music culture.
