Abstract

This chapter analyses the emergence of the Electro Dance Music Culture respectively in Hong Kong and Shenzhen through the emergence (and demise for one) of two clubs in Hong Kong and its neighbouring Shenzhen.

Despite some common points between the two EDM cultures, Hong Kong and Shenzhen have distinct Electro Dance Music Culture that warrants further explorations.
