New Noise 10 years! Wow we can't believe it ourselves. What started as a small idea to bring over some bands to China that we liked, grew out to something we never could have imagined. With always this idea that I had to try and make my passion for music turn in to something meaningful, I started New Noise in 2009, with the ambition of introducing new music in China, an alternative for what was happening at the time. The last decade has been a wild rollercoaster ride with more than 800 shows all over Asia and many great memories made on the road.

In order to celebrate to celebrate 10 YEARS NEW NOISE ，We will organize 3 special shows in Chengdu, Shanghai and Beijing with a few from our favourite bands that we worked with over the last 10 years. Thank you so much for your support and here's to another 10 years to come!

Music geeks rejoice! There’s a new cassette label in town and they’re not messing around. Nugget Records, started by Dave Carey, known for his role in indietronica duo Nocturnes, and Jen Rao, whose artwork has graced fairs and cafés across Beijing, looks to merge the DIY ethos of underground music with the fuzzy, immersive lo-fi sounds that have been enriching the scene across China.

The labor of love is visible in just about every aspect of the label’s domain, from the sun-kissed high-hued colors that are splashed across their zine to the bedazzled reformatted cassette players. Both will be available this Thursday, Sep 19 at DDC as Nugget Records unleashes their first two releases: one from lo-fi pop duo lost memory machine (consisting of Carey and Wuhan singer Shii) and another from Beijing electronic genre-melding maverick thruoutin.

Within Destruction：

According to the most recent intelligence from The Slam Police archives, Within Destruction are on the world’s most wanted list from crimes against angry keyboard warriors in illegible Logo’d shirts.

Unique Leader can indeed confirm that Within Destruction are guilty of heinous manliness that would make the average rookie vomit. Which is why we signed them.

Since the release of their debut album ‘Void’, Within Destruction have fast gathered a legion of dedicated fans as they continue to straddle the worlds of Death Metal, Deathcore, Tech and of course…SLAM. Slams all over the place. Don’t even get us started on the brutality of the vocals…imagine falling through a wind turbine and you’re close.

Back with a vengeance with the relentlessly heavy new offering Deathwish, armed with jaw dropping art and a crushing mix from Will Putney (Thy Art, Fit For An Autopsy) WD are on the brink of dropping some serious hammers on the world of heavy music. Bring out the crime scene tape and start marking out your chalk lines in the pit.

On Wednesday, September 18th, join vocalist and pianist Dave Ye and double bassist Yifan for a night of jazz at Frank by Ala House. These two artists will be playing a show called American Songbook, with jazz classics from the USA for your listening pleasure.
