The title says it all ^_^ Here are random recommendations of my favorite Asian artists. Most are of course, Chinese alternatives/indies, but I will try to recommend some Japanese/Korean goodies too.

Cold Fairyland
It's amazing how many sites come up when I do a search for "Cold Fairyland" on Google in English. It seems like all the foreigners who visits Shanghai go to their shows and are amazed by them! ^_^ Hmm, how should I describe Cold Fairyland? I was first introduced to them by judy819 at the Chinese Indie last.fm group (come and join!). Cold Fairyland makes dark, dream pop music with a mix of mellow electronics, rock, and lots of traditional Chinese intruments like the pipa and erhu, which is refreshing & awesome. Whenever I listen to Cold Fairyland, I feel calm and dreamy, entranced by this world music mixed with rock and traditional Chinese sounds.
I am actually at the library right now hehe, because I still don't have any internet connection at our new house. Whee free internet! :o) OK, now go to these links to read more about Cold Fairlyland in English! (aka people who writes so much better than me *_^)
