The Next New Thing Alert
Are You Ready for the Coming Asian Music Invasion?
"Asian pop music is crossing international boundries within Asia but has yet to make a ripple on the US music scene. That's about to change. Internet radio station, PopGoesAsia.com offers a preview of sounds to come.
"Forget your preconceptions of Asian pop music. Today’s artists are blending western styles with Asian sensibilities and spawning whole new genres. A few have forged inroads into the US market but some of the biggest stars in Asia are poised for a full-on attack to win American Ears . Will this be an Asian Invasion rivaling the British Invasion of the ‘60s? 'It will be more like a foothold than an invasion,' according to Rhys Ludlow, founder of Pop Goes Asia, a pan-Asian internet radio station. 'But it is only a matter of time before an Asian pop star strikes gold here in the US.'
