Harbin, China's iconic winter city, is once again turning snow into gold with its traditional Ice and Snow Festival. Harbin in Heilongjiang Province is pulling out all the stops to grow its winter economy. Other cities in Northern China have long been following suit, and even eastern and southern cities now want a piece of the action to boost tourism and consumption. How should these cities go about developing their plans, and what are the trends that people are chasing?

A rambling and somewhat chaotic chat with Ray & Sam from ska/punk/funk band Smiling Ivy recorded backstage at the Foundry music venue in Sheffield. They even brought their own handwritten 10 point list of worst times for this one! Going back over a decade - Chris, Ray & Sam have got a lot of ground to cover. They recount the time they toured the Alps, almost crashed the van in Paris and had to save the drummer from a Jimi Hendrix style ending. Plus the time that the band were due to play a festival just outside Bristol but ended up in Hebden Bridge due to an email error. Also, why have Smiling Ivy been banned from multiple places around the country, how did they end up playing a Snow Festival with no snow and does a drum kit have a volume knob? Smiling Ivy are releasing a new album soon and they have gigs coming up. Check out their socials for more details! And warning - this podcast features adult language and adult themes!

In Harbin, north-eastern China, the winter tourism economy is thriving thanks to its winter events and activities. Thousands of tourists have flocked to the city to enjoy its ice and snow festival and cultural offerings. Harbin, known for its ice and snow festival, has become one of China's most sought-after tourist destinations this winter, giving the country a welcome post-pandemic economic boost. Here, an area of 140,000 square meters on the frozen Songhua River has been turned into an ice and snow park, where visitors can enjoy activities from ice skating and sledging, to snowmobile and sleigh rides. According to the local authorities, Harbin, the capital city of northeast China's Heilongjiang Province, has welcomed nearly 3.05 million visitors during the 3-day New Year holiday, many drawn by the grand and intricate ice sculptures of its annual Ice and Snow Festival. Both the number of tourists and the amount of tourism revenue surpassed the figures for 2019, marking a historical peak. Data from the city's commerce department shows a significant growth of 129.4 percent in the accommodation and catering sectors during the period. Many of the tourists here are from southern China, where it rarely snows. “We have experienced the customs and geographical appearances which are very different from where we live,” says Zhu Yandi, a tourist from the country's capital city of Beijing. “Harbin is like a world of ice and snow, and its temperature is the most attractive to us,” says Gao Yuqing from the east Shandong Province. Various topics related to Harbin have dominated the trending list across different social media platforms too. The city's tourism department attributed the growth to Harbin's increasing popularity on social media. The city's rich Russian-style buildings and the beautiful snow sceneries are two important factors in its appeal. Harbin boasts a great number of Russian, Baroque, and Byzantine-style buildings due to its special history and geographical location. Business is booming in Harbin, with millions of visitors continuing to flock in. This article was provided by The Associated Press.

These visitors have been bestowed with a unique nickname ‘nanfang xiaotudou' or ‘southern spuds,' which is a playful nod to the shorter stature of southern Chinese people who resemble potatoes when dressed in winter attire. The surge in tourism was largely fueled by the allure of Harbin's spectacular Ice and Snow Festival, which is a testament to the city's remarkable capacity to transform the biting chill of winter into a spectacle of art and creativity. The festival usually closes at the end of February, but only if Mother Nature doesn't provide a warm spell before then. 主播：周邦琴Albert●没有名牌大学背景，没有英语专业背景●没有国外留学经历，没有英语生活环境●22岁成为500强公司全球员工英文讲师●24岁自学成为同声传译●25岁为瑞士联邦总统翻译

On today's show, Ollie and Bobby demonstrate how woefully ill-equipped they are to discuss the issues surrounding the Ainu people and the opening of their new culture complex in Hokkaido, plus discuss the spread of Bobby's viral tweet, which, quite frankly, is putting the download numbers of a certain podcast to SHAME. This week's recommended river cruise will finally help young creatives make use of all of that "exposure" they've been trying to live off of, and in our River Cruise news, we end up getting pretty unreasonably angry at indifferent children.

On today's show, Marc talks about the latest Hitman 2 seasonal event, which involves throwing snowballs and killing people with icicles, Beyond Eyes, which is about a young blind girl searching for her cat, the woes of streaming and capturing at the same time (when your internet sucks), and some random movie nonsense. Anyway, something-something festive and suggestive, cheers and enjoy the anime-zing(ly padded) show. Anyway, that's it and that's all folks. If you're feeling extra generous, you can become a patron, donate a little something-something, or subscribe to show your support for the site, the plentiful podcasts, the various videos, the absurd art, and all of the other nonsense we make over here at Pixelated Sausage. Thanks for being a fan.

Lehmann Podcast is back! Please welcome Nocte from Stuttgart, Germany for episode #100 of Lehmann Podcast! Geboren 1990 und aufgewachsen nahe Stuttgart, entwickelt Nocte seine Leidenschaft zur Musik bereits in jungen Jahren. Als er und Techno das erste mal aufeinander trafen, begriff er schnell: Da ist etwas – dieser dunkle Club mit all den Menschen, die offen und freundlich waren, es gab keine Konflikte, die Musik und der Spaß standen im Vordergrund. Zunächst baute Nocte seine neugewonnene Leidenschaft für elektronische Musik im Kreis seiner Freunde bei abendlichen Sessions, Besuchen in Plattenläden, sowie zahlreichen Clubbesuchen und Festivals aus. Seit 2016 ist er als Resident in der Finca fester Bestandteil der Veranstaltungsreihe „RAW CUTS“ und erweitert stätig seinen Horizont, weshalb 2017 bereits Acts im Lehmann, Parker Lewis, Club 27 und auf dem SNOW-Festival anstehen. Als leidenschaftlicher DJ und eines der Gesichter der Stuttgarter Techno-Szene liebt Nocte es, das Publikum mit groovigen und rauen, jedoch an Emotionen und überraschenden Momenten nicht fehlenden Auftritten zu begeistern. Sowohl neue als auch alte Tracks, melodische als auch gewaltigere Phasen finden Platz in seinen energiegeladenen Sets. „Damit versuche ich Gedanken und Gefühle so auszudrücken, dass etwas Ganzes entsteht. Mein Anspruch besteht darin die Leute mitzureißen, ihnen eine Geschichte zu erzählen und ihnen keine Luft zum Atmen zu lassen.“ Fortwährend ist Nocte auf der Suche nach neuen Wegen und Inspirationen, um sein Konzept von elektronischer Musik weiterzuentwickeln. Ein Grund, warum er vor einem halben Jahr mit dem Produzieren startete. Eine Balance aus Club- und Studionächten soll irgendwann herrschen, damit Nocte seinen Traum verwirklichen kann – Zeitloses und ebenso Innovatives zu schaffen. Catch Nocte alongside Benjamin Damage, Hours, 0909 and Tolgahan Kaya on 10th of february at Lehmann Club: https://www.facebook.com/events/1176326932474207/ Some additional Info on Nocte: https://soundcloud.com/nocte-music/ https://www.instagram.com/nocte90/ https://www.facebook.com/Nocte-646277345504359/?ref=hl

For most Kiwis at this stage in the summer when we think about ice its to put in a long cool drink. Not so much for South Taranaki couple Lisa and Jimi Walsh. They carve giant sculptures out of ice and snow and are just about to head off to compete in the snow sculpture section of the 2017 International Ice and Snow Festival in Harbin, Northern China.
