What do you get when you remix classic Chinese children’s songs with modern hip hop and electronic sounds? The answer is the newest album from The Shanghai Restoration Project (Dave Liang), Little Dragon Tales. While the Shanghai Restoration Project is well-known and -admired for their club-friendly electronic music, producer Dave Liang has also made music for the whole family. For the album Little Dragon Tales, the New York-based Liang collaborated with the GTA’s own Yip’s Children’s Choir (Canada), for modern twists on traditional Chinese children’s songs – a rare remix album aimed at parents and their children. For the performance at Harbourfront Centre, the Yip’s Children’s Choir (Canada) and Dave Liang perform live together for the first time ever.
