—- Press Release from Post-Concrete

On Chinese New Year’s Day, Feb 7, 2008, Post-Concrete started a brand-new line of releases of sound art, experimental electronic, laptop Max/MSP/Jitter/SuperCollider, algorithmic piano, noise, not-in-the-field recordings, live bootlegs, etc., featuring mostly artists from China, Taiwan and Hong Kong. This line, called ARCHIVAL VINYL, is net-only and all releases are offered in the lossless FLAC format (i.e., CD quality sound and can be burned to CDs). All for immediate download at zero cost.

Six titles have been released in three days (with more in the works):

AV001 Wang Changcun - KUNCHONG
AV002 Xie Zhongqi - KUROJAWAN
AV003 Jiang Liwei - EXPERIENCES
AV004 Yao Dajuin - DREAM REVERBERATIONS (singles)
AV005 Wolfenstein - LIVE AT NANHAI 2007
AV006 2RqP5k - ANTECHRE LIVE IN SHANGHAI

BTW, another good source for tapping into the Chinese scene is Global Noise Online (GNO), the only English-language blog/source that documents what’s going on in the field of experimental music and sound art in China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong right now.
