Cool (and quite white)
New Shanghai webzine CNNGo (click for what, Morgan?) today printed a Shanghai “hot-list” – 20 of the hottest people that you really should know in Shanghai. This lowly blog got a mention, which is always nice, but what was nicer was the profusion of music people in the list:
- YuYinTang’s Zhang Haisheng
- Split Works‘ Archie Hamilton
- Li Sisi from STD
We imagine that the SOMA guys will get a mention in the next edition due to the miracle that they have managed with MAO Live (more on that later) and we are thinking that Sacco should have had a mention for his truly HOT threads. Also Morgan for his dedication to his bands, Dan Rogue the energy he devotes to everything, Pupu of the Mushrooms for being the first to push a Shanghai band towards National status, Lao Jiang and Tiantian for their devotion to nuturing the 0093 space, Michael from Antidote and Gaz and Gary from Shelter! Finally Andy and Jake for their blogging and new podcast – check it out We could go on for hours about people that deserve status here, but I will open it to you! Who do you think should have been on the list… Read the whole article HERE.

I agree with this post. 0093 would be there with YYT. Dan and Morgan … the Mushrooms without doubt.
There are many …
But obviously the list was not a music/arts list so to speak.
People like artist Popil should get on I suppose – because she’s a major local talent but works here instead of the in the capital with it’s bigger ’scenes’. Fair play.
I would put me on it, no money,power or guanxi, I’m afraid.
Oh ..that’s wouldn’t ..not would.
