Switched on Pop: How Popular Music Works, and Why It Matters by Nate Sloan, Charlie Harding

funny informative lighthearted fast-paced
This was a really interesting read! I’m a fan of the Switched on Pop podcast, and it was cool to get Nate and Charlie’s analyses of pop music in a different format. I think it was probably easier for me to grasp some of the concepts because of my music theory background, but all in all I think they did well managing such an audio-based subject matter in a non-audio medium. I think the most interesting parts were the info about how Skrillex produces his music and the inspiration for Since U Been Gone (mind blowing!!). Overall, a fun read to dip in and out of.
