Die Rolle institutionalisierter Standards für die Hybridisierung musikalischer Praxen. Zur Soziomaterialität von Songwriting-Producing im Bedroom-Studio

The role of institutionalized standards for the hybridization of musical practices. On the socio-materiality of songwriting-producing in the bedroom studio This study examines the socio-materiality of hybrid music practices in bedroom studios, focusing on the interplay between traditional music education institutions and YouTube education. A single case situational analysis reveals how standardized instrumental and music production practices are combined to form a hybrid practice. It shows that traditional music education institutions, such as music schools and conservatories, specialize in the selection of chord tones, while You-Tube videos focus on sound design. Using an actor-network theory approach, the study demonstrates the permeability of informal and institutional learning spaces. The findings suggest that songwriting-producing is not simply a sum of different practices, but rather a process of negotiation and compromise between different standards and goals, as well as the distribution of practice between humans and technology.
