“This is the book I needed to be written. Parsley dismantles the myths and stereotypes limiting women and gender minorities in electronic music, introducing the powerful theory of ameliorative work. This is an important conceptual contribution which will be invaluable to inequality researchers and sociologists across music and other creative sectors”, Vick Bain, Music industry campaigner and researcher, and Queen Mary University of London “A powerful and personal exploration of gender inequality in electronic music. Samantha Parsley combines academic depth with lived experience to expose the hidden labour women, trans and non-binary artists must do to survive in a male-dominated industry. A vital, original and hopeful call for change that we have all been working so hard for. offering much-needed blueprints for a more inclusive future.” Eve Horne, Founder, We Are The Unheard CIC/Senate & Board Director Ivor's Academy/ BPI Equity & Justice Advisory Group (EJAG) Member
