Product Description
Book Description
Clubspotting offers a quick and dynamic picture of the here and now of club culture, Italian style. No longer tightly bound to the Anglo-Saxon fast paced squeal of the electric guitar, today's twenty year olds move to the bits and beats of the sonic studio/laboratory where new instruments such as the PC Cubase and Sampler prevail. 'Club culture' is their catch cry, 'electronic' the standard form of expression. This totally visual book is the creative expression of a world that is non-political and post-hedonist, nervously wordless and volatile. It's a short journey that attempts to makes club culture understood, available and fascinating for everyone. Artists featured include Jazzanova, Howie B, Krust and Michael Reinbot. The book is divided into sections: Flyer Zone, Club Zine, Art Zone, Nu Directors and Clubs on the Web.

A Critical Review of the Clubculture, April 19 2001
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Clubspotting: A Journey Into Club Culture (Paperback)
This book is a visual testament which helps you to define the interzone among a "social space", the electronic music and the hedonistic attitude. A review of some of the most innovative artists of the electronic European scene such as Howie B, Grooverider, Nitin Sawhney and so on, lead you into the land of a visual generation. The book's aim is also the one to de-territorialize the culture of the club, seen far away from the usual and known routes of Ibiza, London or New York. From the point of view of the authors, the electronic music - as well as any other kind of artistic expressions related to the clubculture - represent an off-centre body with thousands of peripheries. A single and unique evidence of a very Italian elegant touch.
