Sobre este áudio
From the sugar rush of Tokyo’s idol subculture to the discordant polyrhythms of its experimental punk and indie scenes, this audiobook by Japan Times music columnist Ian F. Martin offers a witty and tender look at the issues that shape Japanese music today. With insights into the evolution of J-pop as well as its history, infrastructure, and (sub)cultures, Martin deconstructs an industry that operates very differently from counterparts overseas.
Based partly on interviews with influential artists, label owners, and event organizers, Martin’s audiobook combines personal anecdotes with cultural criticism and music history. An accessible and humorous account emerges of why some creative acts manage to overcome institutional pressures without quitting their bands.
Ian Martin’s writing about Japanese music has appeared in The Japan Times, CNN Travel, and The Guardian, among other places. Martin is based in Tokyo, where he also runs Call and Response Records.
As an exclusive bonus for listeners, this audiobook contains over an hour of music from the Japanese underground.
This audiobook was directed by Graeme Mick and produced by Awai Books.

"Martin's new book, Quit Your Band: Musical Notes from the Japanese Underground, is a must-read." (Tokyo Weekender)
"Even for non-music buffs, Quit Your Band is rich with insight into Japanese media and the entertainment industry." (Metropolis Magazine)
"Readers with no or just a passing knowledge of Japanese music will see inner workings from someone who has experienced it from many different angles, while those more familiar with it can wrangle with Martin's criticism. Peppered throughout are entertaining anecdotes, many of them breaking up the analysis with humor...Quit Your Band is a great intro to the nation's under and overground, but what ties it all together is the same sense of attachment music fans anywhere can relate to" (Time Out Tokyo)
