Bag om Bhangra Moves

Bhangra is now understood to refer to the hybrid music produced in Britain by mixing Panjabi folk melodies with western pop and black dance rhythms by British Asian music producers, which is derived from a Punjabi harvest dance of the same name. This 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. It seeks to trace Bhangra's moves from Punjab and its 'return back' to look at the forces that initiate and regulate global flows of local texts and to ask how their producers and consumers redirect them to produce new definitions of culture, identity and nation.
