The Sino Hearts 赛诺之心 :

Taking the dynamic charm of some of power pop’s greatest heroes combined with the precision of 60s beat groups, there’s not an ounce of fat on The Sino Hearts - a burst of upbeat, unadulterated power pop that’s fresh, crisp, and tons of fun. Wavering together one tightly wound hook after another, guiding you the whole way. No filler, no bullshit antics – just unabashed guitar-led singles that ride a bubbly punk wave attitude and aim straight for the earworms.

Oldy Baby:

There’s something refreshing about the bluntness of garage punk trio Oldy Baby and their delightfully mischievous debut. Founded by three of Beijing’s hardest working musicians, including the dynamically voiced Nathan Borofka, whose tender, brawny, and more than a little unhinged voice steers this locomotive of rampaging of guitar, bass, and drums, there’s a lot of fun to be had with the reckless abandon the band adheres to. Weaving between cryptically silly songs about one’s indifference over berets (and canopies for that matter) to defeated heartbreak waltzes, there’s a loopy Americana anarchist spirit at the heart of the trio, injecting each song with equals parts charm and lunacy that never overstays its welcome.

S.T.V.S:

When values collapse, all we seen is noise. S.T.V.S Mathematical vector schizophrenia. （Hardware noise, Improvisation, Dark ambient, Doom, Cult） For us, Noise Experimental is an emotional carrier. Emotions can infect or obscure you, cause life itself is an experiment. The world is sinking, we are shouting ！！！ What choices do you need to make when facing the crossroads?
Members: Wang Xuan (Hardware noise, Sampling), Yao yuan (Hardware noise, Sampling), Pan Yu (Vocal), Homemade Ink Wen (Wind Instrument)

DJ ADDJ:

ADDJ was born and raised in NYC.  His first foray into DJing began at his college radio station, WXDU Durham 88.7/90.7 FM, where for four years he hosted the punk/indie rock show “The Big Takeover”.  Upon his return to Brooklyn, he continued to hound and pester bar- and club-goers with his particularly noxious cocktail of punk, garage rock, funk, soul, afrobeat, hip hop and reggae until they booted him out of the country.  His hobbies include digging for vinyl, film, literature and monkeys.
