As New Wave emerged from the anti-establishment energy of punk, Chinese disco in the 1980s carried the same rebellious spirit.

I wrote about this history at length in “Like Lightning, Like Fire: A Brief History of 1980s Chinese Disco,” published by Shanghai-based music zine @dailyvinyl_sh - which, ironically, you still can’t access online in China today 🤐

This Saturday, I’ll be sharing some classic Chinese disco while guesting at @mayorofsouthoakcliff and @____la.bruja____ New Wave night, @______arcadia______ Thank you for giving me a platform to share these sounds in Dallas!

P.S. The last slides are a few photos from Beijing, 2018, when we hosted a lecture + DJ party on Chinese disco 🪩
