The Shanghai Restoration Project
The Shanghai Restoration Project is an American-Chinese, Brooklyn-based electronic music duo composed of producer Dave Liang and multimedia artist Sun Yunfan, whose retro-futuristic sound combines traditional Chinese music with hip hop, jazz, and electronica. Formed in New York City in 2006, they released their self-titled debut that same year, which was heavily inspired by the 1930s Shanghai jazz scene. “Introduction (1936),” one of the tracks in the album, was featured on a Kenzo TV advertising campaign. They quickly followed up with Instrumentals (2006), Story of a City (2008), and Instrumentals: Day - Night (2008), a soundtrack for modern-day Shanghai that received coverage by NPR. A compilation of Chinese electronic artists titled eXpo saw the light in 2009 and two years later, SPR returned with Little Dragon Tales: Chinese Children's Songs (2011), a collection of classic Chinese children’s songs backed by hip-hop beats. In subsequent years, the group went back to Shanghai jazz standards on The Classics (2014), collaborated with Chinese jazz singer Zhang Le on Life Elsewhere (2016), and released the dystopian R.U.R. (2017) before dropping 2019’s Flashbacks in a Crystal Ball and Brave New World Symphony in 2020.
