B6


B6(Lou Nanli) is China's most prolific and respected independent electronic musician and DJ.
Hailing from Shanghai, this 29-year-old maverick is a multi-talented electronic music pioneer, DJ, renowned graphic artist,and co- founder of Neocha.com and the Antidote parties
As a teenager, B6 started his own independent record label (Isolation Music), and composed critically-acclaimed experimental sound art, ambient, and post-rock albums while also producing sound and designing album covers for various alternative music acts on the mainland. B6's graphic works have been exhibited in museums in the UK, Europe, and North America.
In the years since, B6's productions have explored a variety of genres, from synth-pop to IDM to breakcore and drum and bass, and in 2006 released a 6-CD box set of his early works. In 2007, B6 teamed up with singer JJay to complete a radiofriendly but cutting- edge synth-pop album called IGO "Synth Love", released on Universal Music HK.
In 2008, B6 released a new solo album -- B6 "Post Haze" on China's Modern Sky Records. "Post Haze" shows a new maturity in B6's music, with precision programming, dance-floor rocking rhythms and glitch-happy beats. Starting with smooth, atmospheric minimalism, moving into mind-bending tech-house, then a bit of bangin' techno, "Post Haze" promises to be a landmark release out of China's developing independent music scene.
In 2009, B6's "Post Haze" second edition is released in Europe and has received great reviews by the European electronic music community. He has since performed live at Berlin's legendary Tresor club, Sweden's VOLT Festival, Belgium's Vooruit Club, and others.
