“This past weekend, I filmed and uploaded a music video for a song called City of the North, a letter to this city in all its difficulty, challenge, and unexpected beauty. It showcases a day in my life here, and stars the faces and lives that intersect in this explosion of culture: the students, migrant workers, foreigners, old-timers, and more. City of the North is available on Youtube at www.youtube.com/watch?v=CkZ4dxhiPUs
The song is the first track off my new EP “Goodbye, Beijing.” that will be releasing on 4/21 at grandmaster.bandcamp.com. On 4/21, we’ll be throwing a release party/music video screening/farewell concert in Beijing’s 798 art district, including the second music video from the project: ONE CHILD, a song dealing with China’s controversial One-Child Policy. If any of your readers will be in town, they are definitely invited to the event.” - Jason Chu
