The new independent station based in China brings fresh music from Asia and beyond with a mix of artist residencies and events.

“BAIHUI refers to the acupuncture point at the top of your head. A meeting point for expression, a central crossing to which music fans can open their minds to new sounds,” state the curators of BAIHUI.
