Electro fans, the time has come to proudly pin your colors to a subgenre, as there are not one, not two, but three gigs in Shanghai this Friday. So decide whether you are of the electro-rock, electro-thrash or cinematic electro-hop persuasion, and let those synthesized good times roll.
Pet Conspiracy
First up, fighting the electro-rock corner, we have Pet Conspiracy playing their first official full-band performance in Shanghai. They’re promising a mysterious on-stage surprise and an energetic set. Read our interview with singer Helen Feng here.

Eliot Lipp
Meanwhile, LA electro producer Eliot Lipp will be twiddling knobs across town at The Shelter. He tells that’s to expect: “mostly my own tracks and some remixes, but I can promise moments that will be hype along with time to chill as well.” Click this link to read the rest of our Q&A.

The Toxic Avenger
Finally, Parisian electro-thrasher The Toxic Avenger will be tearing up Not Me, supported by R3, The Dynamic, Kidplastic and Mr Clumsy. We’re looking forward to edgy punk-influenced sounds with a few poptastic moments thrown in the mix.
