I don’t hear anything revolutionary here for Asian American music. Pretty voices and up-to-date recording technology. Andrew Huang is an outstanding songwriter. My thinking is Asian American musicians in the mainstream. The only underground music worth listening to has to be daring or really unusual, sacrificing quality if necessary. http://rootofthetooth.weebly.com. These selections are the most beautiful B side songs, but B sides nevertheless. In the past B sides were interesting because they were daring and uncompromisingly honest. Giftedthought, you are important in what you are doing, in the custom of Traktivist Rich M.
