Masstransfer: A Zinethology

di Ryan Anderson (Autore)

Ryan Anderson, 2021

Take an indie trip through 25 years of dreampop, shoegaze, post-rock, ambient and electronic music with Ryan Anderson - musician and former editor of the music zine Masstransfer. Over the past year, he has pulled together all of the music content from issues covering 1997-2003, adding contemporary commentary and updates on many of the bands and musicians who are still active. In addition to almost 40 band profiles--from The American Analog Set to Windy & Carl--Ryan covers several music scenes that provided much of the content found in the pages of the zine. These include: Detroit, Philadelphia, Chicago, Texas, Eastern Canada (Montreal, Toronto) and Scandinavia. As a nod to the artists that influenced the sound of Masstransfer, an entire chapter is devoted to "Our English Icons"--seminal 90s groups like Stereolab, Broadcast, Spiritualized and Flying Saucer Attack. As a "Coda" to the Masstransfer story, Anderson provides a glimpse into the closure of the zine and subsequent reboot as a podcast, and offers his take on where the music scene is headed into the future. Recommended for anyone who was part of the scene in the 90s, whether you were in a band, worked at a record store or college radio station, or just a fan of these bands.
