1300 Kilometer ist Micha gerade mit dem Fahrrad durch Taiwan gefahren - aber ganz entspannt und Low-Tech. Wie plant er so eine Reise, was für Tipps kann er anderen Radtouristen geben? Unser Stammhörer mit Retro-Vorliebe klappert auf seinen Reisen gezielt Plattenläden ab, denn eine seiner Leidenschaften ist taiwanische Musik aus den 60er bis 80er Jahren. Natürlich auf Vinyl. Wir hören in fünf funkige Songs rein und sind überrascht von der Bandbreite - Teresa Teng, Mandopop und mehr. Außerdem geht es darum, wie Radfahrer im Verkehr in Taiwan und Deutschland behandelt werden und was besser laufen könnte.

KJ, famous Shed Dog stage and screen actor, continues to be sought after in the acting world. Less important is our apology for the long delay between episodes. PJ has been asleep at the editing switch once more. Still…have you ever wondered what bath bombs do or what they're made of? Me neither, but all of a sudden here's KJ explaining it and working on making his own with Pattie of Vancouver. We also have Snappers in this episode, and whoever is feeding him these killers needs to knock it off. Halloween is reviewed (we're talking to you, Jessie of Montreal) and there's yet another solid gold money making idea from PJ. A long delay, yes, but worth the wait?

De laatste week van de zomerserie Verre Geluiden is aangebroken en daarin reizen we als eerste af naar Taiwan. Het eiland dat momenteel volop in de schijnwerpers staat, nu de bestaande spanningen tussen Amerika en China verder oplopen na het bezoek van de voorzitter van het Amerikaanse huis van Afgevaardigden, Nancy Pelosi. En China is, in antwoord daarop, bezig met zijn grootste militaire oefeningen rond Taiwan. De Taiwanezen leven al decennialang onder militaire dreiging en hebben in diezelfde jaren aan een democratie gewerkt. En dat is ook duidelijk te horen in de muziek van Taiwanese artiesten, die zingen over 'het harde werk' dat het volk heeft moeten verrichten voor het opbouwen van een democratie. Hierover Gerrit van der Wees, docent Taiwanese geschiedenis aan de George Washington Universiteit.

Teresa Teng (Deng Lijun 鄧麗君) was arguably Asia's first pop superstar, a singer from Taiwan who won hearts across the continent and the world. Teng got so famous in behind-the-bamboo-curtain China that PLA air force defectors to the Republic of China (Taiwan) cited her music as an inspiration for literally flying to freedom. Teresa Teng recorded more than 1,500 songs in Mandarin, Taiwanese, Cantonese, Japanese, English, Indonesian and Italian -- and is credited with laying the foundations of popular Chinese music.

Jenn speaks to Meredith Schweig, a Harvard PhD, Fulbright Scholar, and assistant professor of ethnomusicology at Emory University. Meredith talks about the field of ethnomusicology, her interest in East Asia which led her to focus her research on Taiwanese popular music and coincidently marry her best friend, Andres a Taiwanese American. She shares the many challenging encounters she has had from a childhood accident that left her with a vision disorder that she has always felt uncomfortable speaking up about, to enduring a long-distance marriage, pregnancy journey, to the loss of her parents right before the pandemic hit. How her fear of flying and learning to develop a strategy has helped her manage the different spheres she encounters in her life. (Recorded on August 5, 2021)About Meredith:Meredith Schweig's research explores twentieth- and twenty-first-century popular musics of East Asia, with a particular emphasis on narrativity, gender, and cultural politics in post-authoritarian Taiwan. She completed her MA and PhD in ethnomusicology at Harvard University, where she also received her BA in Music and East Asian Studies.An assistant professor of ethnomusicology at Emory, she is currently completing a book about Taiwan's vibrant rap scene. Her second book project refracts questions about vocality, agency, and transmedia storytelling through a study of global pop icon Teresa Teng. She maintains additional research interests in sensory studies, migration studies, disability studies, history of art and architecture, and the museology/musicology nexus.Episode Resources:WebsiteIGYebba October Sky大嘻哈時代 The RappersRenegade Rhymes: Rap, Music, Narrative, and Knowledge in Taiwan

Music from East Asia has recently been making its way round the world on waves created and mediated by new technologies and global interconnections. This may seem like something very novel, but as Andrew Jones shows in Circuit Listening: Chinese Popular Music in the Global 1960s (U Minnesota Press, 2020), popular music from this region – and here specifically varieties of Chinese music – has been riding revolutionary technological and socioeconomic currents for a long time. Events during the 1960s, that quintessentially musical decade, prove this, and Jones' book asks the key questions about genre and periodisation which help us understand whether there was a ‘global 60s', while also examining the geopolitical currents connecting and dividing Taiwan, China and Hong Kong at this time. The book is thus not only a rich source of insights into stars such as Grace Chan, Teresa Teng and Taiwanese folk troubadour Chen Da, but also offers a whole framework for understanding the shifts in globalisation and communication which continue to shape our soundscape today.

Yu Hayami 早見優 (ASIJ 1984) Singer and TV Actress Hayami is a J-pop singer and TV actress in Japan. In 2011, the Japanese music television program Music Station listed her as the 50th all-time best-selling idol in Japan, with 2,850,000 records sold. Yu Hayami was born in Atami, Shizuoka, and was raised in Guam and Hawaii from the age of 3 to 14 years old. She was scouted by an agent at the age of 14 and soon moved back to Japan to start her career as a singer. She attended ASIJ from 1981 to 1982. She entered Sophia University and graduated, receiving a Bachelor's Degree in Comparative Culture. In 1982, Hayami gained her J-pop singer's debut with the single "Isoide Hatsukoi" (ASAP, my first love!) after being scouted by a talent agent in a shopping mall's elevator in Hawaii in 1980 when she was only 14 years old. Named “Bilingual girl back from Hawaii” due to her ability to speak very fluent English because of her background, Hayami was instantly recognized and touted as one of the best newcomers to watch out for. She proceeded to win most of the major newcomers' awards by end of 1982. In 1983, her fifth single, "Natsu Iro no Nancy" (Summer Coloured Nancy), was selected as a campaign song for a Coca-Cola commercial, and she became a cover girl of that. The single became Hayami's first Big Hit, making it to the top 10 of the Oricon Chart, winning countless awards. As a result of the success of the song, Hayami made her 1st appearance at the 34th edition of the year end NHK Kouhaku Red and White Song Festival. Hayami participated consecutively 3 years in the prestigious show. (1983 - 1985) ​ Hayami shifted her focus to become an actress and TV & Radio presenter in the 1990s.

The universal language of music is once again front and center, as John & Heyang exchange more of their favorites, creating a cross-current of song. Heyang shares the music of the late, great Teresa Teng. With a career spanning 30 years, Teng remained widely popular throughout the 1970s and 1980s; she remained popular even up to the first half of the 1990s, up until her death in 1995. Teng was known as a patriotic entertainer whose powerful romantic ballads and performances revolutionized Chinese popular culture during the 1970s and 1980s. She is often credited for bridging the cultural barrier across Chinese-speaking nations, and first artist to connect Japan to much of East and Southeast Asia, by singing Japanese pop songs, many of which were later translated to Mandarin. John brings a few of his favorites to the show, and drops the needle on an eclectic group of artists including Stevie Wonder, Bonnie Raitt and The Four Tops.

Zum Jahresausklang wird es bei uns romantisch. Oder doch tragisch? In der Hongkong Love Affair (im Original Tian mi mi, international vor allem auch als Comrades, Almost a Love Story bekannt) aus dem Jahre 1996 folgen wir den Wegen der Festlandchinesen Qiao Li und Xiao Jun durch Hongkong, wo sie sich Mitte der 1980er Jahre die Erfüllung ihrer Träume erhoffen. Welche Träume bestimmen das Leben der Protagonist*innen? Und was macht man eigentlich, wenn man seine Träume tatsächlich verwirklicht hat? Viel wichtiger noch: Wie ist das eigentlich mit Fahrrad fahren? Wir sind bemüht, uns so sanft an die Geschichte anzunähern, wie es das zentrale Paar im Film tut. Dabei erörtern wir, was der innere Antrieb der Figuren sein mag. Nebenbei verraten wir auch, was uns an der Inszenierung immer mal wieder fasziniert hat. Max war im Spätfilm zu Gast: SF228 – Der neue Hays-Code und wird dort Anfang Januar mit der Besprechung eines ganz besonderen Films erneut zu hören sein.

Welcome to Episode 6 of Holly Jolly X'masu! This being my first Christmas in July episode, I wanted to do something special. I covered a variety of summer-themed or summery-sounding Christmas songs instead of a single album. Considering the current state of the world, I wanted to stick with mostly upbeat songs. I’ll feature the downbeat songs next year. For anyone who’s ever wondered about the origins of Christmas in July, the earliest reference comes from the 1892 opera, Werther, which featured a scene with children rehearsing a Christmas song in July. In my house when I was a kid, that was just a normal day, but in the opera, it prompts one pre-ghost Scrooge of a character to remark, “When you sing Christmas in July, you rush the season.” The first known celebration of Christmas in July allegedly took place in 1933 at Keystone Camp in Brevard, NC. The camp’s founder, Fannie Holt, decided to stage a Christmas celebration for her campers, complete with Santa, a tree, presents, carolers and even fake snow. The tradition evolved from there and the camp still celebrates it to this day. The idea first gained some national attention in 1940 with the release Preston Sturges’ Christmas in July. Despite the title, the movie doesn’t feature an actual Christmas celebration, but instead is about a man who mistakenly believes he won $25,000 in a contest and then goes on a Christmas-like shopping spree, buying gifts for his family and friends. A handful of other local celebrations took place in the 1940s. By 1950, advertisers in America had taken hold of the idea and were using it as a summertime marketing tool. The idea has grown from there, so that now you have networks showing Christmas movies and specials, people decorating their houses, and podcasters creating special episodes. However you choose to observe it, it’s a fun way to divert your attention from the summer heat. In this episode, I feature ten Christmas songs from ten different artists, each with a summery or tropical feel, or a direct mention of summer. I would include links to where you can buy them, but none of them are available new or streaming in the US. I’ve included the songs, artists and albums below. You can find some of them on Amazon, although you’ll likely have to pay quite a bit to get them. 1. Halcali – Strawberry Chips (Sutoroberīchippusu / ストロベリーチップス), from their 2003 single, Strawberry Chips 2. Akiko Kobayashi – Midsummer Silent Night (Manatsu No Silent Night / 真夏のsilent Night), from the 1989 album, Merry Christmas To You, by Funhouse Ladies Vocal. 3. Yuki Uchida – Tight T-Shirt (Tīshatsu De Gyutto / Tシャツでギュッと), from her 1995 album, Merry Christmas For You. 4. Ginji Ito – Santa Claus In A Red Bikini (Makkana Bikini No Santakurōsu / まっ赤なビキニのサンタクロース), from his 1982 album, Baby Blue. 5. Junko Yamamoto – St. Martin's Summer (Sento Māchin No Natsu / セント・マーチンの夏), from her 1994 album, Junko Yamamoto. 6. Eri Hiramatsu – Holy! Hot Christmas ~Eve No Toubousha~, From her 1993 album, Ichiya Ichidai Ni Yumemikei. 7. MAX – Midsummer Eve (Manatsu No Eve / 真夏のイヴ), from their 2001 album, Feel So Right. 8. Mutant Monster Beach Party – Boys, Cars, Surf And Christmas, from the 1993 CD re-release of the 1987 classic, Mint Sound's X’mas Album. 9. Kuwata Band – Merry X'mas In Summer, from their 1986 single, Merry X’mas in Summer. One thing I need to point out about this song is that, in the episode, I said it was originally by Teresa Teng. This was based on multiple sources I found beforehand that listed her as the lyricist and referred to her cover as the original. As it turns out, Keisuke Kuwata wrote the song and Kuwata Band was the first to perform it. Teresa Teng wrote the Chinese lyrics and released it on her album, Drunken Tango, later that same year. 10. Hi-Fi Set – Christmas In July (7 Tsuki No Kurisumasu / 7月のクリスマス), from their 1984 album, Pasadena Park. As mentioned in the show, here’s the link to Robbie Nevil’s version of Merry X’mas in Summer, as well as a link to Halcali’s video for Strawberry Chips: Robbie Nevil's "Merry Christmas In Summer" Halcali's "Strawberry Chips" As always, thanks for listening. Next month, I’ll be talking about the 2014 compilation, Flying Dog Christmas. In the meantime, if you have any suggestions or recommendations, feel free to send them my way. Any feedback on this episode would be appreciated. If you’d like to recommend an album for a future episode, drop me a line and let me know. Remember, I've added a button to my Ko-fi page. If you'd like to support me one cup of coffee at a time, a donation is only $3. Any donations received will be put towards purchasing new Japanese Christmas music to review for future episodes. Thanks!

A note from Talking Taiwan host Felicia Lin:   Peter Lin, is a trombone player, leader of the jazz band, The Lintet, and music teacher. He is a man who wears a lot of different hats! In March of 2018, Peter spoke with me about his career as a professional musician, the difference between being a bandleader versus a sideman, and how he met jazz legend Slide Hampton. We also talked about the Lintet’s first upcoming album, and the connection between Jeremy Lin, Linsanity, and The Lintet- all of which incidentally are not related to me.   Peter shared why he describes jazz as democratic, and a barometer of the United States’ social climate. In his first album, The Lintet introduces Taiwanese music to jazz listeners and jazz music to the Taiwanese.   Two years later, we’ve invited Peter back on to Talking Taiwan to let us know what he’s been up to, how he’s been dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic, and to share some advice for how musicians can get through these tough times. Our follow up interview is coming up on the next episode of Talking Taiwan.   Here’s a little preview of what we talked about in this podcast episode:   How Peter got started playing the trombone How he decided to become a professional musician Where the band’s name The Lintet came from What Peter does as a bandleader How jazz has historically reflected the social climate and race relations in the U.S. How The Lintet incorporates Taiwanese and Chinese songs done in jazz style at his performances and on their first album The twofold purpose The Lintet’s album to introduce Taiwanese to jazz music and to introduce jazz listeners to Taiwanese and Chinese music Peter’s observation that more Taiwanese people are becoming interested in jazz     Here’s the sound clip from one of the Lintet’s 2018 Lunar New Year performances.

I dette afsnit handler det om den taiwanesiske popstjerne Denglijun (også kendt som Teresa Teng) hvis melankolske, længselsfulde kærlighedssange bjergtog store dele af Sydøstasien og Japan, og ikke mindst i Kina, netop som den voldsomme kulturrevolution sluttede i sidste halvdel 70'erne.

今天是一代歌后邓丽君辞世19周年纪念日。让我们一起重温她动听的歌声。 Teresa Teng was a prominent pop diva from Taiwan during the 1970s and early 1980s. Her voice won her spectacular fame throughout East Asia and in areas which possess large Asian populations. For the past three decades her popularity remained unwavering among Chinese communities worldwide. Even today, her mellow voice and tender image remain vivid in the hearts of many Chinese people. Teresa was known for her folk songs and love ballads. Many of her songs were regarded as the tunes of a generation, such as the song we're listening to now, which is called "Comrades: Almost a Love Story". As you may have noticed, Teresa's singing style conveyed simplicity and sincerity. As many of her diehard fans during the 70s and 80s attested to, her songs were extremely important to impressionable young teenagers during this time. "In the early 1980s, I was a high school teacher. Once, I found students listening to Teresa's songs on a tape recorder. I borrowed the tape out of curiosity. They were really beautiful songs. Later on, I became a big fan of her. I've painted a thousand portraits of Teresa in various styles." "Teresa's songs have accompanied us all the way from being young girls up until now. Her songs are a part of our lives." Perhaps Teresa's voice offered spiritual solace for the youngsters of the seventies and eighties. Music has changed a lot since then. But her songs continue to resonate with those she touched long ago and with the new fans that discover her talent every passing year. In 1963, when Teresa was ten, she began to tour and perform with local bands. This was the same year that she won the first prize at a folk singing contest held by the local radio station with her song "Visiting Yingtai". This proved to be the stepping stone for Teresa's prolific singing career. In 1967, during her second year of middle school, Teresa made a decisive career choice. She dropped out of education as it was impossible for her to cope with schooling and singing professionally at the same time. Aged just 14, Teresa became a fulltime singer. Well-known in Taiwan, Hong Kong and other parts of South East Asia, she set her sights further afield and in 1973 she headed for Japan. What you're listening to now is one of Teresa's most popular Japanese hits, "Give yourself to the flow of Time", which was later covered in Chinese as "I Only Care about You". Singing in Cantonese, Japanese and English, as well as her native Mandarin, Teng's popularity quickly grew across East Asia. She was also the first Chinese singer to ever perform at the Lincoln Center in New York. Teresa Teng had been a lifelong sufferer of respiratory difficulties. She died from a severe asthma attack while on holiday in Thailand. She was only 42 years old. During her lifetime, Teng recorded over 100 CDs, each of which sold over a million copies. Although it's been almost two decades since her death, her music and the love for her displayed by her fans carries on.
