Yin (音, “music”) is a weekly RADII feature that looks at Chinese songs spanning classical to folk to modern experimental, and everything in between. Drop us a line if you have a suggestion.
Summer’s almost gone! Grab a pair of headphones and a couple of mooncakes and give us an hour+ of your time, because RADII is back with another mix highlighting our recent favorites. Soundtrack your Mid-Autumn Festival with this smash-up of damaged dance music, deconstructed rock’n’roll, reimagined folk and AI-enhanced composition, a wide and deep sampling of what we’ve been listening to over the past few months.
