Overview

The main objective of this work is to develop an analysis of rock music, youth and communication capital in Brasília in the 1970s and 1980s. These are two interesting periods in relation to the musical production of bands in this city. The bands were formed by young people who were initially interested in punk rock and later in rock adapted to consumption, but maintained a critical stance towards local and national reality. To carry out this research, we used authors such as Marx, Adorno, and Bourdieu to understand this phenomenon. Based on this theoretical framework, we developed an analysis of the forms of production within capitalist society, founded on a specific mode of production of goods, whose characteristic is to gradually transform everything into commodities, including culture and music, more specifically. The work seeks to highlight the relationship between rock and youth, mediated by communication capital. It is this sector of capital that is responsible for the production and dissemination of these bands. It also analyses how these bands were inserted by communication capital and its changes in the form of music production in this context.
