Preserving a space without Venues with Katy Roseland of Shanghai community Radio. We are joined by cohost Allen Huang of Awesome Agency Asia.

Shanghai Community Radio, a net radio based in Shanghai China, is tasked with building a better broadcast network over international web sanctions and IP laws. SHCR is a responsive live streaming project, exemplified in the 不要出门 stream from home DJ series in February 2020, which would echo to the global pandemic. live at SHCRAD.IO

‘Allen Huang, for one, is moving to Taipei. Born 33 years ago in Capitol Hill, Huang is very integrated in Seattle’s music scene and has been active as a promoter for the past three and a half years. The promotion collective Customs that Huang organizes, along with Alex Osuch, Reed Juenger, Denise Zhang, Alex Ruder and Ben Chaykin, has booked nearly 50 shows, including Detroit-based footwork legend RP Boo, Japanese juke musician Foodman, and vaporwave forerunner Ramona Xavier’s project Vektroid, to name just a few. The genres are varied, but Huang says one of his main focuses is celebrating Asian and Asian-American artists, such as Metome and Seiho from Osaka, and Mark Redito from Los Angeles by way of the Philippines.’
