Music Radio : Building Communities, Mediating Genres.

Edited by Morten Michelsen, Mads Krogh, Steen Kaargaard Nielsen and Iben Have. This anthology explores the ways in which musical life and radio interact, overlap and have influenced each other for nearly a century. One of music radio's major functions is to help build smaller or larger communities by continuously offering broadcast music as a means to create identity and senses of belonging. Music radio also helps identify and develop musical genres in collaboration with listeners and the music industry by mediating and by gatekeeping.
