The soundtrack to my travels in Hong Kong and China so far has been the Seattle based, Kinsky (http://www.myspace.com/kinskispace). They're on the Sub Pop label, which I have not heard of in a long time! Sub Pop, who first signed Nirvana, MudHoney and Soundgarden back in the day, is forever embedded in my mind as the record label brand of 90s grunge "cool”.
Kinsky is virtually lyric-less, providing and fueling progressive "noise". I first discovered this band while witnessing the performance art duo, Robbinschild at the New Museum on Bowery, in New York City last December. I love their use of monochromatic color, landscape contrast, dance and mood.
