Making Diaspora in a Global City [EPUB ebook] 
South Asian Youth Cultures in London

The exciting diasporic sounds of the London Asian urban music scene are a cross-section of the various genres of urban music that include bhangra ‚remix, ‚ R&B and hip hop styles, as well as dubstep and other ‚urban‘ sample-oriented electronic music. This book brings together a unique analysis of urban underground music cultures in exploring just how members of this ’scene‘ take up space in ’super-diverse‘ London. It provides a fresh perspective on the creativity of British South Asian youth culture, and makes a significant sociological intervention into this area by bringing the focus back onto urgent issues of ‚race‘ ethnicity alongside class and gender within youth cultural studies.
