That C-Pop Kick

So somewhat recently I've been on a bit of a mandopop/C-pop kick (though I did post a track a couple of years ago). For the longest time I didn't listen to Chinese music, especially while growing up (though to be fair I didn't listen to much of anything growing up outside of classical music).

Towards the end of undergrad and the beginning of grad school I started to travel a bit more and thus had the unfortunate circumstance of passing time by watching movies on airplanes. After exhausting the classics (because honestly nothing new from Hollywood is really that great), I ended up turning to Chinese movies (though to be fair they're not much better). The soundtracks of the movies were pretty catchy (much more than the movies themselves), and I was able to find the tracks pretty easily. Eventually I ended up finding (now defunct) 1g1g, which functions as a Chinese version of Pandora and the rest kind of went from there. I'd stumble upon new artists and playlists, and now my phone is starting to fill up with Chinese music. Oops...

Some of what I'm currently listening to:
