Winter in Shanghai

Hailing from three different countries, Andreas Demeter is about as close to a modern day renaissance man as you can get. Listening to Winter in Shanghai, this former solo drummer turned punk-rock singer brings you from your desktop to the snow covered streets of his city almost instantaneously. He brings us just the kind of unadulterated personal style we could only hope for from a three time world dj champion named Kid Fresh. So for all of you bundled up tight and trying to fight the end of winter blues, we suggest you take a break from reworking your Mii characters and let Andy bring you on an Asian adventure of a different kind.

Why Shanghai?

Shanghai is an insane place. It’s the opposite of Germany, where everything is over-regulated, which I really became bored of. It’s pretty much the center of Asia too, which makes it easy to travel to all of those other interesting places.

What’s the scene like there?

The Shanghai scene is definitely interesting. Millions of expats from all over the world mixed in with gazillions of locals. Cllubwise, you got lots of tasteless, decadent mainstream palaces with crazy budgets on the one side, and tiny, grimy underground spots on the other. Not too much in between yet but subcultures are steadily growing. The indie clubbing scene as I see it is still pretty much in children’s shoes, but it seems to be developing quite quickly.

How’s Shanghai fashion? What’s your favorite article of clothing?

Nothing spectacular about Shanghai fashion…hilarious fake markets. My favorite article of clothing might be my new hounds tooth scarf I bought on the street in a grimy alley for 20 Yuan. Smelled funny at first, but after washing it, it’s really cozy!

So the mix…

Recorded on 2 turntables, 1 mixer, 1 sloppy g4 ibook, garageband & serato. I’ve mostly went for some of my favorite tunes in 07, some classics & new stuff on there as well though.

What flavor is Mika’s Lollipop?

Fucking… I don’t know, Chicken feet?
