The history of Bhangra will be covered ranging to the modern increase in popularity in Bhangra, examples include collaborations from PMC with Jayz. Most of the places where these interviews and the Gig footage, will be shot will be at Clubs entitled, New Light and Zoo Bar. Potentional Artists to be interviewed will include, Bobby Friction, Juggy D and DJ H from the Caliber Roadshow. All of the artists listed above are fairly well known to Bhangra listeners and Juggy D in particular is known across a more broader western audience. We also aim to interview Artists who have been involved in the Bhangra Movement from the start of its popularisation in the Western Area, such as DJ's in the Paragon Roadshow. Along with this interviews will be conducted with farily well known Dhol players as this is one of the most Key and well known instruments, associated with the Bhangra Genre.
