  • My favorite quotes-

    "Because of the dominance of US media [the world] has very little understanding of modern China"

    "I can't say what Chinese music is, but I know its not fully matured yet."

    Good job on the video, quick, informal and eye opening.

  • I didn't know 2billion people could all kill one guy.

    just cause the government is "doing stuff" doesnt mean the whole country is with it or anything

  • @vivaldihk Not all of XTX's music is so western, a band like cold fairyland has more Chinese influence and some of the classical music is quite experimental and a lot heavier than the rock music. It would be difficult in 4 minutes to get even a small sample of Chinese rock.  I think the clip is good introduction to Chinese rock.

  • dont be hypocrite, that's 100% western music style, nothing wrong about playing western instrument and music, just admit it!!!!

  • 新教主,呵呵呵呵呵呵。

  • interesting clip 5*. I'm sure contemporary musicians in Beijing have much to offer the world of music and art ~

  • I agree Please check mine out Thanks

  • beijing rocks, 柔~~~~

  • I like that statement chinese rock is tea and western is coffee. So chinese is smooth and western rock is in our face. I believe that! lol

  • you do not have to prove yourself by assymilating with western music you are beautyful as you are modern music however isnt only folkmusic rock is a natural development on any kind of music people are always looking for new developments in music and the way i see it rock is the latest development in any kind of music

  • 谢天笑和冷血动物的音乐非常棒,也许同为中国人才能体会更深,一­些歌词写得让人绝望。姜昕更偏向流行乐我觉得。
