SS20 brings it on hardcore, Unregenerate Blood Confirms

By in Gig Reviews, Tunes under the moon

Hardcore is not my preferred go-to kinda music but when it’s well done, it is definitely worth a listen. That holds especially true for old school hardcore a-la Black Flag. [...]

More Aussie tunes in the ‘Jing: Bone rock a sleepy Mao with Residence A & Yantiao

By in Tunes under the moon

Awhile ago I wrote about how Sino Australian Music Exchange is doing awesome things sending Chinese bands to Australia and Australasian bands to China. I saw my hometown boys Die! Die!

By in Tunes under the moon

On Friday night BD and I were enjoying WuFei’s performance at the Ephemerals show when he made the comment that he’s still getting his head around the guqin, still learning how it sounds and understanding to expect from it. I had to agree with him. I’ve seen WuFei perform 3 times now, by herself, with [...]

We love SUBS here at Daze Central, so when we heard Kang Mao has a new project in the works we were excited to hear what she was up to. I managed to pop into Beautiful Folk night at Mao on Sunday night for the debut of ‘So long and thanks for all the Fish‘ [...]

Exodus unleashes a Brutal all out Metal assault on Beijing for their first show in China!

By in Tunes under the moon

My ear drums are still buzzing, and I’m slightly surprised at the lack of bruises and the fact that nothing is broken on my body after last night.. why? one might ask… Because I went down to the pits of hell (or Mao Live House) with 2 walls of death and more moshing than I [...]
