DJ Ken ISHII Sparks Beijing Pop Festival Official Party
Japanese techno artist Ken Ishii is among the most innovative, experimental composers in contemporary techno. Although working in and drawing from a decidedly dancefloor-oriented, Detroit-derived framework, Ishii's exploration of avant-garde compositional techniques like chromaticism and the prominent influence of digital synthesis figures him as strongly deviant from Motor City aesthetic tradition. Ishii's music is often praised by DJs who nonetheless refuse to give his often challenging records much play. Ticket: presale RMB50, at door RMB80. 8pm-2am, September 9, Tango TEL (8610) 6428 2288
