    After exploring the African continent and the great Mongol areas, it is the turn of the Yunnan province in China to welcome this new journey.


    China Expedisound is a foolish crossing cultures and thoughtful, successful alchemical fusion of the experience-based travelogue, exploring the unknown and its sublimation into the sound and visual experimentation. A transcendent story ... the story of trance in dance ...

    These unlikely Engagement between the mythology of the Naxi (Yunnan ethnic minority), the Baisha (popular music of the Naxi) and libertarian ideals of tekno travelers dented by the LSQ and its component "Anti-TAZ" are one of the most compelling episodes Expedisound the series.

    Expedisound China is ultimately one of the most eloquent results on the concrete reality of the Utopias of today ... This is sound but we speak beyond music. Here electro and Baisha Naxi ravers and just talk to the South of the Clouds.

    The result certainly will exceed all your expectations. (Yvan @ Ear of Moscow)

about

‘A collection with a rare and remarkable cultural ambition.’ KEYBOARD
‘This will reconcile all the techno-loving tribes’ Trax magazine
‘And here music shows how universal it can be’ MCD
‘This expedition is a generous human and musical adventure’ Coda
‘This encounter is a musical marvel as much for amateurs of electro as for tradition music aficionados. The experience generates surprise and sound creation’ Zora Connecting
‘Close your eyes and embark on an unforgettable journey through sound’. Magma

After ‘world traveler adventures (African Expedisound) and the Mongolian Expedisound… Here is the third opus from the ‘sound diggers’.
9 months of musical exploration of ‘the other China’.
3 years of exchange and musical creation
After the exploration of the African continent and of the Mongolian open spaces, this new journey takes us to the Yunnan province in China. The third volume opens new perspectives on the original guiding idea, stretching further the space-time continuum to a place where nomadism rimes with humility.

China Expedisound is all of this and more. It is an unexpected and well thought-out cultural hybrid. It is the successful alchemic fusion of a roadmap, guided by shared experiences and the exploration of the other, and its sublimation in sound and image experimentations. This unlikely match between the Naxis (Yunnan ethnic minority) mythology, the Baisha (Naxis popular music) and the libertarian ideals of techno travelers- somewhat dented by the public order laws and their anti-T.A.Z aspects- is one of the most convincing chapters in the Expedisound series.

China Expedisound is in the end one of the most eloquent results of the tangible reality of today’s utopias… This one is based in sound but goes way beyond music. Here Electro and Baisha, Ravers and Naxis are simply conversing with one another South of the clouds. The result will surely take you way beyond your expectations. Yvan@ L’Oreille de Moscou
