It describes in intricate, prismatic detail one marathon day in a recording studio during which an unnamed musician struggles to complete a film soundtrack. The book extends the form of Grubbs's previous volume \u003ci\u003eNow that the audience is assembled\u003c\/i\u003e, sharing its goal of musicalizing the language of writing about music. Mulling the insight that \"studio is the absence of pushback\"--now that no audience is assembled--\u003ci\u003eThe Voice in the Headphones\u003c\/i\u003e details one musician's strategies for applying the requisite pressure to the proceedings, for making it count. \u003ci\u003eThe Voice in the Headphones\u003c\/i\u003e is both a literary work and a meditation on sound recording, delivered at a moment in which the commercial recording studio shades into oblivion. It draws upon Grubbs's own history of several decades as a recording artist, and its location could be described as every studio in which he has set foot.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDavid Grubbs is Professor of Music at Brooklyn College and The Graduate Center, City University of New York, and author of \u003ci\u003eNow that the audience is assembled\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eRecords Ruin the Landscape: John Cage, the Sixties, and Sound Recording\u003c\/i\u003e, both published by Duke University Press.
