Cab is the special guest of this twenty-fourth episode of Open Sources. Founder of Subtropical Asia, a platform and production house that celebrates subculture across Asia, she invited William Griffith from LiveChinaMusic to join her in presenting a selection of contemporary underground music from China from the past 10 years. Their selection spans across different genres, with a focus on indie music. They also discuss Cab’s experience in the underground music scene while growing up in Wuhan and discovering the many bands of the “golden era” of the underground in Beijing, additionally highlighting rising new labels such as Svbkvlt.
