Industrial / Noise Label based in Hong Kong.
Henry Kwok and Li Chin Sung, who as owners of the independent Sound Factory label are at the center of the city's underground music scene. Sound Factory's catalog includes CDs by Hong Kong fringe figures such as Nelson Hiu, industrial noisemeister Xper.Xr, and the group Dancing Stone and the quixotic 100-CD set "John Zorn and Yamantaka Eye Live in China." Sound Factory partner Li Chin Sung recently released a CD of his own sonic experiments, "Past," on John Zorn's prestigious Tzadik label. The company also promotes concerts by visiting avant-gardists such as Zorn, Otomo Yoshihide, and Fred Frith, usually at a loss.
