Through his new book Beefy’s Tune (Dean Blunt Edit) London Goldsmiths lecturer Dhanveer Singh Brar has opened a conversation with the music of Dean Blunt. Focusing on Blunt’s 2016 album BBF Hosted By DJ Escrow, his essay addresses what he sees as the musician's indifference to Britain, while acknowledging the depth and complexity of his portrayal of Blackness in the UK.

Brar’s Beefy’s Tune (Dean Blunt Edit) is published by the87press. His second book Teklife, Ghettoville, Eski: The Sonic Ecologies Of Black Music In The Early Twenty-First Century will be published by Goldsmiths Press/MIT Press in Spring 2021.
