Crate-Digging in Eastern Europe: Informal Archives and Research of Popular Music under Socialism
My paper examines crate digging in Eastern Europe, analyzing its potential for creating new historical narratives about popular music made during socialism. Crate digging refers to a practice of picking or “digging” through unorganized selection of used vinyl records in any kind of non-corporate environment, from second- hand shops to flea markets, in search of great titles that have somehow slipped under the radar. Focusing on the former communist Europe, I acknowledge crate diggers as relevant DIY archivists and researchers capable of reworking the socialist past by breaking the established modes of knowledge production. Responding from below against long-term ignorance, these local DJs traced and retrieved the lost popular musical heritage and in the process redefined the existing pop-cultural cannon beyond existing narratives created by historical gatekeepers.
