ULTRABLACK OF MUSIC

This book is the ultra-blackness manifesto: a Deleuzian reading of the philosophical and socio-political stakes of the current electronic music scene, marking the reactivation of the influential label Mille Plateaux, with texts by an ensemble of international musicians, artists, and theorists. ‘Ultrablack of Music’ speculates on the manifold ways in which the objective, inhuman soundworlds, which roar underneath humans’ sensological apparatus, pervade and smoothly colonize our humanoid-alien, affective, and cognitive capacities – and how to construct ways out of the mess of the Master Rhythms of Sonic Thanaticist Capital and its stratagems of annihilation and pulpification.
