Shaping The Canon: Spotify and the Construction of Spain’s música urbana. 10º ENCONTRO DE PESQUISADORXS EM COMUNICAÇÃO E MÚSICA: “Playlists das Diversidades”. https://redemusicom.files.wordpress.com/2022/01/2021_ivacc81n-navarro_gt-02.pdf978-65-990643-3-3https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/89019In the second half of the 2010s, a new music genre named música urbana has emerged in Spain, and a music world –a network of collaborative practices organized around the production, distribution and consumption– has sprouted around it. In this paper, we argue that music streaming services and playlisting practices are becoming a new kind of sociotechnical gatekeeper that influences the shaping of music canons in unprecendented ways. We will focus on Spotify in order to point out methodological challenges and proposals suitable to empirically determine sociotechnical actor’s influence on popular music genre formation.engAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/conference paperhttps://redemusicom.wordpress.com/isbn-978-65-990643-3-3/https://redemusicom.files.wordpress.com/2022/01/2021_ivacc81n-navarro_gt-02.pdfopen access78007398SpotifyMusic streamingMúsica urbanaMediatizaciónGéneros musicalesEscenas musicalesMúsica en streamingUrban musicMediatizationMusical genresMusical scenesInternet (Ciencias de la Información)Cultura popular6301.07 Sociología del Arte
