Abstract

SUAREZ, Bernardo. “Revolver” y dar de nuevo.: Una aproximación semiótica a la música de Los Beatles. Trama comun. [online]. 2017, vol.21, n.1, pp.103-116. ISSN 1668-5628.

The Beatles have been considered as one of the most innovative bands in popular music of the second half of the twentieth century. In this sense, their Revolver album marks the beginning of a new stage musical: sound experimentation. At this point, we hold that as significant production, the album is the result of a complex semiotic process. In this paper we propose, from the methodological tools developed by the Theory of social discourses and elements of Musical semiotics, approach this work in particular as fragment of the "social semiosis" to analyze the different significant layers which ultimately construct the effect of meaning. In the instance of discursive production, seeks to account for how these folds include a psychedelic soundscape.

Keywords : Semiotics of music; The Beatles; Social discourses; Popular music; Enunciation.
