Well, I guess there are bound to be some people who do, but non-mainstream music is far from their minds, at least with the people I know. They don’t care further from the daily dose of Jolin Tsai and Jay Chou. Oh, and internet is censored in China, and thus a lot of sites are blocked, like Wikipedia. And looking at Bjork’s recent run in with the government, all sites directed at her must be blocked too, which is a shame, because she should be one of the artists college kids in China deserve to discover. @paul

Phil Collins is a latter day Shakespeare with a synthesizer. What I also love about Genesis is that they rose from the artsy underground and bloomed into international stars who inspired a generation. Are there any stories of a Chinese band coming up through the ranks from the underground to achieve commercial success? How do college kids in China discover new music? Do they know/like Genesis? R.E.M.? Death Cab for Cutie? I love Genesis. Phil Collins is a latter day Shakespeare with a synthesizer.

How do college kids in China discover new music? Do they know/like Genesis? R.E.M.? Death Cab for Cutie?
