As a member of Big in Japan The Slits and most famously Siouxsie and The Banshees and The Creatures Budgie became one of the era defining drummers in the much mythologised post punk scene of the late 1970s and early 1980s Growing up in working class St Helens in the 1960s Peter Clarke lost his mum as a young boy and it s her absence that haunts the pages of this book Disenchanted with art school inLiverpool Peter became Budgie and befriended the likes of Jayne Casey Holly Johnson Pete Burns Bill Drummond and other luminaires of the legendary Eric s Club before taking off for London and the big city heat of punk Budgie s unique technique and musical sensitivity endeared him to the all female group The Slits who asked him to play on their debut album Cut Subsequent touring with former members of the Sex Pistols and others from the post punk aristocracy firmly established Budgie s reputation for innovation But the beating heart of this painfully honest and frank account of a life often sabotaged by substance abuse and alcoholism is of course his long term position as Siouxsie and The Banshee s drummer and co writer alongside ex lover and ex wife Siouxsie Sioux In the Banshees and seminal side project The Creatures their creative partnership prod

Un acercamiento a la cultura urbana a partir de las músicas que la vertebran (con especial atención a los géneros más populares, el trap y el reguetón) a través de un análisis sociocultural necesario para comprender el fenomeno musical que ha conquistado al mundo. Monotona. Machacona. Sexista. Artificial. Vacia. Hacia mucho, muchisimo tiempo que la musica juvenil no provocaba un choque entre generaciones como el desencadenado por el auge del regueton y la musica urbana. Es el genero mas odiado por los adultos y el favorito de los jovenes y adolescentes. Mientras los unos se indignan con las letras, los bailes, la jerga y hasta la manera de vestir de los reguetoneros, los otros cantan, bailan, hablan y se visten como ellos. Y nada indica que este conflicto vaya a resolverse pronto. El fondo del debate en torno al regueton y la musica urbana trasciende lo estrictamente musical. Remite a una sucesion rapidisima de cambios socioculturales dificil de asumir para la Generacion X, la de los padres de los fans de Bad Bunny, J Balvin y Karol G. En las ultimas dos decadas el pop ha sufrido un seismo comparable al que en su momento supuso el nacimiento del rock?n?roll. Las transformaciones en las maneras de producir, distribuir y consumir musica no tienen precedentes. Tampoco las circunstancias que han precipitado estas mutaciones. Matar al papito interpela principalmente, aunque no de manera unica, a los adultos que desean, necesitan comprender que ha pasado en estos veinte primeros años del milenio: de donde proviene el hechizo del sonido urbano, su capacidad para conectar con los deseos y las ansiedades de los jovenes del siglo xxi, y cuales son estos deseos y estas ansiedades. De ahi el subtitulo, Por que no te gusta el regueton (y a tus hijos, si). Con este objetivo, en Matar al papito se despliega una genealogia detallada de las musicas urbanas ?el regueton, claro, pero tambien el trap y el dancehall, entre otras? conjugada con un analisis de las coyunturas sociales, culturales, politicas y tecnologicas que las han alumbrado, para entender (y quizas valorar) de que va todo esto.
