OverviewAn anthology that evokes the music, residents, and vibrant nightlife of migrants in cities around the world. Sonic Signatures interprets the music of contemporary migrants from Montreal to Rotterdam, Oslo to Tokyo. Drawing on research in urban musicology, international migration, and the emerging field of night studies, this edited volume illustrates that sonic signatures are fundamental to nighttime cityscapes, a way of experiencing space and belonging. Contributors to the anthology consider a wide array of genres—including EDM, batida do gueto, and iSicathamiya—to understand how migrants resist oppression, long for people and places, and shape their adopted cities through music.

Sounding In, Sounding Out: Remembrance and Resistance at the Border Emilie Amrein and André de Quadros Notes on Contributors IndexReviews'The plural histories documented in Sonic Signatures are instructive, particularly when read in relation to other theories of cultural production, the construction of difference, sociality, and auditory communities. The volume’s focus on migratory flux and cross-pollination models a scholarly approach that is both deeply historically and culturally specific, but also takes into account change and the ongoing multiple directionalities of communication and influence, particularly vis-à-vis various forms of media. Modalities of music-making, reception, and circulation are always feeding back into one another, and across social, cultural, and linguistic borders. ‘We want the aural imaginary and it wants us’, Kheshti wrote over a decade ago; the essays in Sonic Signatures testify to that desire.' -- Caitlin Woolsey, Visual Studies Author InformationDerek Pardue holds a Ph.D in cultural anthropology and is an associate professor in global studies at Aarhus University, Denmark.
