Independent record companies--those companies not affiliated with the major record labels--are something of a dying breed in the world music market. Yet, as economic and social circumstances conspire against the continued viability of these small and often innovative organizations, independent labels continue to be formed and their creators often tout their companies as wholly different from their larger competitors. This dissertation examines the efforts of one such company. Over the course of this study, Wax Trax Records, a Chicago-based independent best known for its "industrial dance" records, evolved from a fully independent record company to one directly affiliated with Warner Bros. Records. Through an examination of how the company's original ideology of independence incrementally changed to accommodate a more "mainstream" approach to music, culture and business, insights into the interaction of dominant and subordinate ideological perceptions emerge. While many previous studies (most notably Peterson, 1976 and Gray, 1990) have analyzed the role that the structure of the record industry has played in the production and dissemination of cultural products, this study moves beyond those production of culture studies in several ways. First, in order to acknowledge the critical role of human agency in cultural production this study utilizes ethnographic methods and extended interviews as its primary data-gathering tool. Second, in order to examine the shift in ideological "mind-sets" brought to their processes of cultural production, this study juxtaposes marketing theory with Marxist theories of ideological maintenance and challenge. The parameters of Wax Trax's ideology of independence are thereby situated in the midst of the two powerful yet conflicting belief systems that Wax Trax's employees negotiated in the record-making process.Subjects--Topical Terms:
