Description

"Bhangra is commonly understood as the hybird music produced in Britain by British Asian music producers through mixing Panjabi folk melodies with western pop and black dance rhythms. The book looks at Bhangra's global flows from one of its originary sites, the Indian subcontinent, to contribute to the understanding of emerging South Asian cultural practices such as Bhangra or Bollywood in multi-ethnic societies."...[book cover]
