100% Chinese Shoegaze | maxiu

With maxiu, and 100%

Is there a parallel between the introverted melancholy and graceful explosiveness of shoegaze and the evolving youth subcultures of China?

In this hour-long journey, we explore that connection - from Dou Wei's descent into Ambient and Faye Wong's cross-cultural collaborations with Cocteau Twins, we dive into modern prominent figures of the genre with the likes of RUBUR, Baby Formula, Dear Eloise, Pale Air, etc. Let walls of textured sound crash over us along with the hymning of Chinese poetry and traditional instruments.
