Abstract:
A look into song identity and the building blocks of music through a process of analysing five different punk songs and then repackaging them into a modern pop production. After completing these new versions, I compared them to their original recordings and discovered that there are more similarities between the two genres than one might initially think, and that each song’s identity was preserved on slightly different levels and in different forms. I discuss my analyses and process in terms of both music theory and non-musical descriptions, leading to generally positive results. Each song was

Det här är ett konstnärligt arbete som handlar om att producera popmusik influerad av Steve Reichs minimalistiska verk. Det inleddes med en analys av de musikaliska parametrarna harmonik, rytmik och klangfärg i tre av Reichs verk. Med resultatet från analysen som mall skapades sedan nya produktioner till tre poplåtar. Poplåtarna skrevs av författaren innan starten för detta arbete. Resultaten blev av varierande kvalitet. I vissa fall upplevde författaren att det mest lät som att man lyssnade på två låtar samtidigt. När författaren tog egna initiativ och lät ljudbilderna smält

Abstract:
This thesis discusses the use of pop songs in narrative films, with particular attention paid to their role in characterisation. My argument concerns the potential for pop to retain its specificity as a certain type of music whilst it carries out functions normally attributed to a composed score. Many commentators have assumed that, because a song may be known before it is used in a film, its narrative meanings are "pre-packaged". I combine an appreciation of pop music's propensity to come to a film already 'known' with an attempt to demonstrate how individual narratives ask songs to perform d

Abstract:
The aesthetic of ‘cuteness' in South Korean popular music (known as K-pop) is a pivotal concept in Korean media and culture and is frequently used to describe performances by both male and female K-pop groups. Aegyo is a fundamental part of this aesthetic, also called ‘K-cute', and it refers to the behaviour of ‘acting cute' that denotes a particular coquettish style not only in K-pop but also in South Korean society in a broader sense.

The intent of this dissertation is to examine the way Genesis retained progressive rock elements during its 1978-91 pop-rock period. Genesis began composing music in a pop-rock style in 1978, adapting to the changes in rock by incorporating progressive rock elements into a pop-rock style. This study analyzes thirty-four selected songs from six Genesis albums considered in the pop-rock genre, identifying some of the progressive rock elements in these songs.

Narratives about the discovery of one’s favourite artist are popular discussion topics among adult pop music fans, as are narratives of rediscovery later in life, suggesting that memory and nostalgia are powerful forces that can repeatedly draw fans back to that affective moment when they first discovered, and perhaps rediscovered, their idols. The impact of cultural influences like pop music during the formative period of adolescence cannot be underestimated.

Four new songs were then written and produced by implementing the solutions from the reference artists into the creative process. The results were mostly positive, as the songs had improved on various issues found in the feedback analysis. However, the method restricted the creative
