Music industry will study this scholarly report

Seriously: Vanderbilt University sociology profs Jennifer Lena and Pete Peterson (Emeritus) report in a scholarly journal their latest findings on the emergence and evolution of music genres, revealing that they are spawned by traditional, corporate, avante-garde and "scene" or community sources. Dunno, but for some reason, this seems likely to add value to efforts to map and even anticipate trends in the dynamic music sector. The VU release is here. Those're the investigators, at left.
