New Releases: Run Run Run, The Bootlegs, Instinkto Industrio, DJ 小女孩 and more...

What a haul for this episode with tracks from some incredible artists spanning from a retro Cantopop-inspired offering, to various flavours of folk, experimental electronic music and a cool surf rock song that makes for a feel good episode of the Live China Music Podcast. 

Besides the bands and tracks featured here, we also mention several noteworthy labels and musicians such as experimental guitar master Li Jianhong, and Zhang Meng who’s recently released an interesting sheng-based record with Dusty Ballz Records from London, or BIE, another great record label based in China.

About us:

The mission of the Live China Music Podcast is to shed light on Chinese music, providing listeners with insights and information on the Chinese music scene that they would not be able to obtain elsewhere.

The show follows a similar structure to inspiring podcasts such as NPR’s New Music Friday.

During more or less 30-minutes episodes, Will and I review and discuss 4 to 6 tracks per episode, featuring audio clips of the reviewed songs. The songs discussed have been released less than a month prior. There is no musical genre excluded, but the editorial focus will be on emerging artists, even though on occasion established or legacy acts can be featured if the track is particularly noteworthy. Only artists living in China are reviewed in this program.

We systematically sign waivers with the artists or their label to ensure we do not infringe their copyright.

Hope you'll enjoy and please support by sharing around, don't hesitate to reach out by finding us on instagram (livechinamusic or zefrenchvillain) or writing to [e-mail]
