Music

HazeMaze is a unique new comer to the Beijing scene. The band is a super group, composed of members of Macondø, SHA!, Silent Speech, and Peking Floyd. Their music combines atypical time and song structures with a pop sensibility for melodic lines and vocal hooks. Fans of varied bands like Tool, Portishead, Dou Wei, and Primus will find a lot to love with Hazemaze.

Peking Floyd is Beijing’s Premier Pink Floyd tribute band. With a vast and ever increasing collection of cuts from Pink Floyd’s most creative years including Dark Side of the Moon in its entirety, Peking Floyd brings some of Beijing’s finest musicians together to re-create that classic Pink Floyd sound. While staying true to the original structure, Peking Floyd prides itself on emulating the live performances of Pink Floyd during the 1970s when their improvisation and psychedelic jamming were at their best. A sight for the both the eyes and ears, Peking Floyd is one tribute act not to be missed.

Finish the weekend off with a dandy of a show as organized by local label and promoters D.O.G.!

Returning to the School Bar stage are indie electro rockers from D.O.G.'s own roster of bands The Hotline!

Set to join them are a trio of bands from Sichuan province: making a special trip in from Chengdu are reggae rockers JahWahZoo, Brit-pop rockers from southern Sichuan with an average age of less than 15 D.M.N, and also out of southern Sichuan and an average age even less than D.M.N - the "youngest reggae band in China" - Yun!!!
