- Metal, Rap, and Electro in Post-Revolutionary Tunisia is a monograph, based on lengthy and complex research. It summarises almost ten years of research and more than 12 months of fieldwork in Tunisia, during which more than 100 interviews with local musicians and music scene activists were collected. The book applies the sociology of music scenes to a non-western country whose youth cultures and popular music are understudied; it make sense of local scenes in the broader political and sociological context that followed the much-discussed Tunisian revolution. It is one of only few books tackling popular music in the Arab world.
