Before music became invisible and frictionless, it had men arguing over shellac.

This is the story of EMI. From early gramophone experiments through vinyl, tape, transistor, CD. From laboratory tinkering to global entertainment infrastructure. The book traces how recorded sound moved from novelty to empire, and how a company helped shape what the twentieth century ended up hearing.

It’s less about band gossip and more about the technology, distribution, mergers, control. The quiet architecture behind pop culture.

For anyone interested in how music became industry and how industry decides what survives, this is for you.
