"the jazz theory book" by mark levine. yeah't it's theoretically about jazz, but most popular music is just a blues rip off so it's all covered. if u want electronic production, "the secrets of house music production" by sample magic is old but good. even if u not making house, it shows u all the tools and techniques to make whatever. there's a spiritual successor called "secrets of techno production" by attack mag that looks p sick, but i can't find a copy.

Might enjoy Charles Mingus' autobiographical novel Triumph of the Underdog.>>24986449>Adorno On Jazz (directionally correct-- to a point)Opera ultimately degenerated into mass entertainment Broadway Musicals-- dance hall big band jazz is/was part of revival of Theatre in the Wagnerian aim, together with music. It innovated, where avant garde composers cloistered themselves in academic self-suck even more unlistenable than the meme notion of gooning ooga booga saxophones.
