How to Build (Emo Rap, Club Music)

Up-and-coming Shanghai-via-Yunnan promoter How To Build presents a night of emo rap and new underground club sounds at C-Park club Illum. The lineup also features a rare appearance by Shanghai Community Radio co-founder, Sierra Lima, who's now based in Vancouver, plus a couple of DJs coming in from Yunnan. Should be very hype.
