It seems like I share a lot of the same opinions that you do concerning music in China. I’m Chinese, but I could never understand the whole take on music of my friends who live in China. I guess it means I’m too westernized. That doesn’t mean I’m better, but I do want the Chinese music industry to mature more. Very informative.

We are working for a company in London trying to bridge the gap between Chinese and the UK music industries. It’s great to hear how a westerner think about the Chinese music industry. I’ll be your reader from now on. ^_^ Cheers Ting Dear Ed

There is a real demand for good writers. It’s just a question of contacts. A good place to start is <a href="http://www.xmusicmag.com/" rel="nofollow">here</a>. Get in touch and see what happens. Good luck… @ Melanie,

I grew up in the US and speak Chinese as well and listen to both English and Chinese music, and would love to combine my bilingual skills with my passion for all different types of music.

I have amended that bit.

Need to correct that I haven’t sent the article to all my writers yet, just some of the review writers. And I think to have a professional and serious attitude is very important in review writing. And if a musician cannot do a good review, it’s not his problem, he is not a music writer anyway. This is interesting Ed.
