Acupuncture also hosts DJ workshops, music production showcasing and other electronic music activities with which they aim to educate the market and spread the culture. Acupuncture also initiated China’s first and biggest outdoor electronic music festival, INTRO, which is an annual event which attracts over 12,000 participants and has received massive attention at home and abroad. Meanwhile, Acupuncture has never stopped marching on the music production journey. With the release of their first EP in 2008, Acupuncture Records launched on some of the world’s biggest electronic and DJ music download sites, and has been releasing globally since. It is the first time local DJs released through a Chinese label, and now that they are in the mix with the biggest tunes in the world, it’s a watershed moment for China’s electronic scene. In December 2009, Acupuncture opened its own club Lantern in Sanlitun, which quickly became a heaven for all the electronic music lovers and the hottest rendezvous spot in Beijing’s nightlife scene. Now Acupuncture has just launched second club project, The House, a three-storey space located at the epicenter of entertainment of the capital city, Worker’s Stadium North Gate. Since 2007 Acupuncture Records has endured to promote and support China’s electronic music and club culture through event planning and music promotion, with its name being synonymous with the local party scene. With their grand vision to provide sound development for electronic music culture, and promote a lifestyle that appreciates good music and loves fun, Acupuncture Records will continue to produce records, distribute music, organize events, and manage artists with their utmost effort and passion!
