The Medium Is The Monster Mix

Resource added

Full description

This mix accompanies my book The Medium Is the Monster. The songs and tracks mixed here all adapt Frankenstein and are discussed as such in the book. The mix follows approximately the same sequence as the book, progressing from chapter to chapter, featuring the specific songs mentioned in each. The early chapters discuss hip hop, reggae, funk, and Afro-Futurist music (e.g. Maestro Fresh Wes, Dr Octagon, Janelle Monáe); the seventh chapter focuses on EDM (e.g. Deadmau5 and The Paladin Project). The mix also includes some alternative rock, folk, and country songs (e.g. The Stooges, Neil Young, Corb Lund). Overall, most of the content is Canadian, given the focus of the book. For the complete track list, including chapter headers, see https://academicalism.wordpress.com/2018/04/16/the-medium-is-the-monster-mix/
