Reviews

Nominated for the 2017 Association for Recorded Sound Collections Awards for Excellence in Historical Recorded Sound Research Music Commodities, Markets, and Values: Music as Merchandise is a timely and most welcome addition to the growing body of research on music in contemporary, neoliberal India. (...) Written amidst the international collapse in record sales and just as the commodity form of recorded music was evaporating into the digital ether, it captures a fascinating moment of economic, technological, and cultural transformation, the importance of which stretches well beyond South Asia. - Peter Kvetko, The World of Music (New Series)
