Danwei TV presents episode 4 of The Shanghai Beat, titled "Graffiti Shanghai." Featured band: 21 Grams. This episode has bilingual subtitles and is also available on Tudou (faster loading & higher quality when accessing in China).
For this episode, host and producer Adam Schokora (小石) meets up with three of Shanghai's best known graffiti artists: Popil, Zhang Lan (AKA: Mr. Lan), and HKer, to get their inside perspective on the local graf scene and catch them in action painting a few pieces.
After the show, stay tuned for a musical performance by 21 Grams, a Shanghainese experimental post-rock band whose introspective music is largely inspired by their passion for film. [featured band courtesy of www.neocha.com]
