"Made in Nusantara: Studies in Popular Music is an essential contribution to the field of popular music studies in the region and globally. Conceptually, the volume provides a fresh take on Nusantara supported by examples in the respective essays, and establishes a new praxis in the study of popular music in maritime Southeast Asia. With resources such as a spread of pictures featuring artists and album sleeves, a collection of selected bibliography, and an extensive index, both scholars and students in popular music and across the interdisciplinary studies of social sciences will not only find this volume insightful but also enjoyable to read."—Rachel Ong Shu Ying, Yearbook for Traditional Music
