Chinese music pressed on vinyl

[ludomir]

Hallo

My name is Ludomir and I am from Poland. I have recently seen a movie "Chinese Box" with Jeremi Irons.

In my opinion that movie soundtrack is ingenious. Especially nostalgic songs performed by Dadawa made an impression on me.

I am not sure if it is right board to ask, but I would appreciate if someone could help me in finding some similar songs/artist.

However, the task will not be as easy at it seems I am also a vinyl-lover and this is the only media I take into consideration when buying music.

Nevertheless please point out some artists I could google for vinyl records and as mentioned at the beginning I would appreciate your tips about nostalgic/melancholic performances.

I am curious if you could recommend me something interesting.

Kindly awaiting your suggestions.

Welcome to the forum, Ludomir. I have not seen the movie you mention, nor heard the soundtrack, so I don't have any specific recommendations. You might surf videos on Youtube.com for similar music to see what appeals to you, starting with the artists listed on the soundtrack.

If you are only open to vinyl, I would not expect to find much easily available. It is hard enough to find Chinese music on CD. Sometimes LPs are for sale on Ebay and Amazon. I don't know what is available in Poland. You also might look for used record stores, both brick and mortar as well as online.

LPs are coming back into vogue for some popular music groups, but I would be very surprised if new recordings of Chinese music are being released on vinyl. If it is the music that interests you, then it is best to take it in whatever medium is available. The Internet has been a boon for availability of all sort of music that can be purchased and downloaded digitally.

Best wishes,

David
