BIO - 2010



B6 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.



In 2010, B6 had music tours in Germany, Denmark, Australia. July - Sept, B6 Performed at EXPO Shanghai 2010 in German and



Switzerland pavilion.



B6 has been interviewed and featured by BBC TV and Radio, NPR Radio, CCTV, DragonTV and reviewed in magazines like Time,



The Wire, IDN, Vice, Tank, Vision, Milk, and many more. He's also composed music for films and commercials.
