Subject:: [idm] electronic music in china and abroad.

ok, i know we all know about japanese electronic musicians...everyone from tomita to merzbow. i've been to japan, and been to the liquid room etc... i'm flying shanghai later this month, and am looking to see if there are any happening clubs that are playing any electronic music and/or original electronic chinese music. hoping someone on this list knows something about shanghai, etc. i had heard a bbc broadcast talking about modernity in shanghai earlier last summer, and in the background (recorded on location, not mixed in) they were playing some experimental, modern electronic music (with rapid 160 bpm drum kits and edits) Interested in this, and any other musical movements that aren't all things western. i still feel that much of the japanese music format is still derived as such (western scales, ideologies)...looking for something that is a little more pure and diverse culturally if such a thing exists. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

just got back from SHA last weekend. scene has developed a lot over the last several years. there is a lot of youthful interest, but it is pretty above ground. no real underground scene that is easy for a lowai to find out about. best club bet is probably rojam. bring earplugs if you have aversion to trance. but you will also hear a lot of minimal and some house / 313 if you get there on the right night / right set. respect, Jeff Davis fon: 216.266.69696 pHlow@earthlink.net fax: 216.266.2360 home.earthlink.net\~phlow cel: 216.533.6303 hyperreal.org\music\rotator\ -----Original Message----- From: Jc105776@aol.com [mailto:Jc105776@aol.com] Sent: Wednesday, May 08, 2002 11:35 PM To: idm@hyperreal.org Subject: [idm] electronic music in china and abroad. ok, i know we all know about japanese electronic musicians...everyone from tomita to merzbow. i've been to japan, and been to the liquid room etc... i'm flying shanghai later this month, and am looking to see if there are any happening clubs that are playing any electronic music and/or original electronic chinese music. hoping someone on this list knows something about shanghai, etc. i had heard a bbc broadcast talking about modernity in shanghai earlier last summer, and in the background (recorded on location, not mixed in) they were playing some experimental, modern electronic music (with rapid 160 bpm drum kits and edits) Interested in this, and any other musical movements that aren't all things western. i still feel that much of the japanese music format is still derived as such (western scales, ideologies)...looking for something that is a little more pure and diverse culturally if such a thing exists. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
