On today's show check out my exclusive interview with China's premier Reggae and Soul singer Cha Cha.
Based in Shanghai, Cha Cha has collaborated with a variety of international artists - The Bug, Kode 9, Rankin Joe (for Clive Chin's Randys label), Adrian Sherwood and Vibronics. Earlier this year Cha Cha teamed up with Dutch producer Jay Soul to form AM444 for the excellent funk/soul/dub album Eye Wonder.
Currently Cha Cha is at the Red Bull Music Academy in Madrid - the first ever mainland Chinese participant!
Recent collaborations have been with Chinese Hip Hop MCs and producers.
Earlier this year Cha Cha visited the UK for the first time and I recorded an exclusive interview where Cha Cha talks about her musical roots and the emerging Shanghai bass culture music scene.
