Pink Noises

Saw this on Kathleen Hanna's blog, thought it was rad. It's a book called "Pink Noises" and it's about Women participating in electronic music.

The Review: "Pink Noises is a breath of fresh air when you look at how many electronic music books are about more of the same: boys with toys. From the Middle Eastern-inflected electronica of DJ Mutamassik, to the Punjabi rhythms of DJ Rekha, to the academix of Pamela Z and Pauline Oliveros, Tara Rodgers's examination of women as central figures in the creative processes of twenty-first-century art and music is a must-read for anyone who cares about the future of music in our hyper-connected and hyper-post-everything contemporary life. "A wonderfully diverse international mix of interviews, essays, reviews, and links."---"Great practical advice on music making."---"Everything you ever wanted to know about electronic music and the women making it." --- "Pinknoises doesn't just talk girl power, they enable it."---"Acknowledges women's space in the world of electronic music and celebrates it with information, education, and innovation."--- "Go girls!"
