YouTube and Music compellingly captures why that is the case, by providing a collection of very rich and detailed analyses of the complex and multiple contemporary configurations of the platform. The volume will be of interest to all who use YouTube on a regular basis, and who are interested in understanding how the platform has molded itself to an ever-changing media and cultural landscape.

At last we have a substantial yet comprehensive study of the myriad of ways in which music and YouTube intertwine. YouTube and Music contributes vital knowledge on viral music videos, contemporary fandom and the platform’s exceptional communicative power. As YouTube’s platform approaches its 20th year, this timely, detailed and diverse collection gathers together today’s most cutting-edge research on YouTube and music, serving unique analyses of YouTube’s transmediality and gatekeeping practices. The volume benefits from a genuine breadth in perspectives, with contributors representing a wide array of disciplines as well as geographical regions making it essential reading for scholars in popular music, sound studies, media studies and beyond.
