Chinese Man Announce Three UK Shows

• 19th Dec 2013

French trip-hop collective Chinese Man are excited to announce their return to the UK in January 2014 with live shows in Brighton, Brixton and Bristol.

One-quarter Cantonese, two-thirds Manchou, the Chinese man appears to be from the Wu Tang Mountain, not far from Marseilles, France. In 2004, the Chinese man (as we affectionately call him) decided to send his disciples around the world to spread the Zen spirit with old music samples and supersonic bass! Thus, Sly, Zé Mateo and High Ku left their master, ready to face the mission they had been entrusted with.

Chinese Man draw their influences from hip-hop, funk, dub, reggae and jazz and rose to fame to when their track ‘I’ve Got That Tune’ was chosen by Mercedes-Benz to feature in their pro- motional campaign.

They have since toured the globe, wowing crowds with their talent and their video-light music show. From Hong Kong to Bogota, from the Eurockéennes to the Vieilles Charrlies, from the Paleo Festival in Switzerland to the Couleur café in Belgium, members High Ku, SLY, Zé Mateo and their VJ Tot made their audience swing and move their booties!
