DJ 瓢瓢 (Piao Piao), real name Wen Shun, is a resident at Beijing club Zhao Dai. A post-pandemic world in Beijing sees the Chinese capital booming with new clubs, and Zhao Dai is a staple of the city’s underground scene.
Beijing’s musical history has, in previous decades, leaned more towards male-dominated indie bands and live performance. However, its contemporary landscape sees women fronting its electronic scene – a wave that’s been boosted in recent years by conversations on gender equality in the capital. Beijing’s underground scene continues to be shaped by industrial music in particular, and Wen Shun is an artist who pulls both from the city’s rich history and current wave of sounds.
Zhao Dai regularly teams up with, and financially supports, queer organisations. The venue would like to highlight Beijing’s LBGT Center. Find out more and donate here.
