NO x CN Music by Design, the cross-cultural music collaboration project, through co-initiative of the four Nordic Consulates General in Shanghai, will return to Shanghai in the end November and early December. This project pairs Nordic musicians and producers with their Chinese counterparts for a week-long intense studio time to work on creating a song, followed with a live performance on Dec 1 at YuYinTang to stage the joint creation.

Music by Design is started with the simple desire to create a platform where some of the talented artists from different cultural background would be able to come together and share their ideas. The creation of the song is just one aspect of the overall goals which are to introduce a wider audience to the Scandinavian sound and create better cultural understanding between Northern Europe and China on how each creates and produces music.

The exciting lineup this year is composed of Swedish soul singer Elias, Danish producer duo Farveblind, Norwegian musician Bror Forsgren, Finnish singer-songwriter and kantele performer Ida Elina, accompanied with their Chinese counterparts Xixi, ChaCha, Dirty Fingers, and Jasmine Li.

This year’s edition also receives supports from Shanghai International Culture Association and Nordic Council of Ministers.
