Unlocking the Groove is a groundbreaking, award-winning, music-driven analysis of electronic dance music (EDM). Author Mark Butler interweaves traditional and non-traditional musical analysis with consideration of the genres history and social significance, deconstructing several typical examples of electronic dance music and focusing on the interaction of beat and rhythmic structure in creating an overall musical design. Interviews with DJs, listeners, and producers flesh out the book, providing insight into the perceptions and performance world of EDM, and making a vivid case for the musical artistry of EDM disc jockeys. The CD included with the book illustrates the analysis with multiple musical examples, both in excerpts and full songs. Butlers work propels the study of popular music in exciting new directions, and will impact the range from popular music studies, music theory, ethnomusicology, and musicology.

Derzeit tritt ein Problem beim Filtern der Rezensionen auf. Bitte versuchen Sie es später noch einmal.
I could use some insights to improve my music, but I was not really satisfied with the book. You have to read trough so many pages, which are only written to proof the evidence of a single statement.

Also, I just spoke with the publisher and they said the book is no longer in print, however, it looks like an e-book version is available online.
examples that i tought i will learn something from them, are not written and displayed in popular piano roll/step sequencer view like in Michael Hewitt's book. so if your are using softwares like fl studio ableton etc, and you want to expand your knowledge on making grooves, this might get tricky.
another star down for this book is because of the writer's constantly playing "journalism", writing about unnecesery information.
somehow i gave up from reading books this kind subject...
but, if you can read notation and want to read about stuff that not relate to MAKING music , this book is for you.
i want to point out that book is all about groove, but NOT about MAKING it all the time, sometimes it goes too far, too philosophicaly.
