Pop-Punk from Kaohsiung, 草地人 The Locals. 陳中 has their Summer Super Slippa posted. They call their style ‘humor punk’, so maybe the lyrics are risqué or naughty, lol. =D

The new Soul Live Box is up, the duo OK繃 (Bandage) with percussion help from (B?). That cello sound is gorgeous!
You can see more OK繃 at their YT channel
Soul Live Box is on facebook. They do a nice job on these clips, I wish they would find a nice rooftop space to make a weekly video for BalconyTV.

It really bugs me that there’s no representation from Taipei, Taichung or Kaohsiung. Such a no-brainer way to turn the world on to the TW indies. As long as I’m venting my spleen, the same goes for Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur. Some of these cities already have (or had) a dedicated YT channel for live indies. What’s preventing Stage-Tube HK, CRI Sound Stage in China, or Thewknd in Malaysia from making a regular video for an international channel? The lack of a porch/patio/balcony/rooftop/dock? COME ON!
The current Asian Balcony TV cities are Delhi, Mumbai, Seoul, and Tokyo. Look at the full list and tell me why the C-indies aren’t all over this?!
Seriously, go look at any clip from the Tokyo or Tel Aviv or Brooklyn contributors. Look how much fun they’re having. Now imagine the Yuran Session or Soul Live Box video team matched with a personable host for the mini interview (e.g., Mami Ku, Ball, ciacia, iNCH Chua, Waa Wei, Achino Chang, Peggy Hsu, Helen Feng, Jonathan Alpart).
By the way, if you enjoy a variety of musical styles in your YT feed, you really need to add Balcony TV. =D

Tomorrow (Fri.) night at APA mini, Iron House and Ma-te Lin. Taipei Times events listing: “Electro rockers Iron House (鐵屋) team up with trip-hop artists Ma-te Lin (林瑪黛) at indie music venue APA Mini (小地方展演空間).” And guitarist Yi-Chi Lin 林易祺 rehearsed with the help of Asha’s chicken. Just to avoid confusion: guitarists pick, chickens peck. =D After […]

When Iron House play at 台北 月見ル君想フ Moon Romantic on August 9th, will be joined by their friend from Japan, Kado, on guitar.
Not the first time they have joined forces:
By the way, if the name Moon Romantic seems familiar, you might have seen photos from live shows at their busy Tokyo location. The stage has a huge moon for a backdrop; here’s a shot from Iron House’ July show on their Japan tour:

朋友過世一週的這一天，接獲旺福團長Ringo去世的消息。 讀著小民推機瑪靡肚皮的紀念文，眼淚忍不住又流了下來，我還記得剛認識旺福的時候，專輯裡總是看得見Ringo的蹤影，沒想到已經這麼多年了，沒想到聽旺福已經這麼多年了啊。 我很喜歡旺福，所以這篇聽後感註定會是偏心的。專輯裡我最喜歡的是《阿爸我要當歌星》，小民說媽媽在的時候沒有用力告訴她自己多麼喜歡唱歌，趁著爸爸還在的時候要用力唱給他聽。然後我看到小民在臉書上發表關於爸爸如何從不怎麼支持到對他的樂團生涯的諸多幫忙，我又感動哭了。喜歡這首歌輕快的節奏，閩南語的喊話聽起來特別親切，有好多個早上我喜歡聽著這首歌刷牙洗臉，開始我的一天。…
stayinblue posted her thoughtful review of the new Wonfu, (Papa I Want To Be A Star) complete with her video/song selections. I completely agree about Xiaomin’s sentimental side that has come forth since the birth of his child. He’s posted a number of sweet and heartfelt things, most recently about his father. It’s a beautiful thing! =D

Look what StreetVoice tv just posted!
“Packer is a brand new digital distribution service for indie labels / artists / bands launched in 2014. Packer is your Gateway to Chinese Market.”
Very interesting way to simplify things. It also says available in China soon, listing the various outlets on the mainland. If you click ‘success stories’, they list how Packer has worked for 5 TW bands, including Echo, 929, Queen Suitcase and Flux.
Check out the Packer page at StreetVoice: http://packer.streetvoice.com/ The page can be viewed in Chinese, Taiwanese, English and Japanese. Select language at the very bottom.
Just noticed they also did the promo in the mysterious language:

Google Translate has been getting very aggressive lately in Chrome, anyone besides me notice that? It’s even trying to translate all English pages into… ENGLISH.
LOL, it’s rearranging words, randomly capitalizing words, and generally messing with my eyesight and my brain. 0_0

吠吠狼 Yoy Yay shot a couple of clips with 草東沒有派對 No Party For Cao Dong, well… 3 of their 4 members. The bassist is not here. =)
I really recommend you go hear the song 大風吹 at StreetVoice.
This YT channel Yoy Yay seem to be a lower budget version of Yuran Session; if you head over there you can see they did 3 songs with Freckles a few months ago. p.s. When I say ‘lower budget’, I just mean the random locations for their videos. =D
