about
For our upcoming IBM/industrial techno night Entropy we are looking forward to welcoming Chinese techno producer and DJ Ma Haiping to the space. An impressive producer, he has released on both techno legend Jeff Mill’s label, Axis Records, well as Detroit’s Scan7 label, CrateSavers. A highly respected and humble pioneer of the Chinese techno scene, Ma Haiping is heavily influenced by the 90’s sci-fi sonic palettes of Underground Resistance and Drexciya. He has shared the decks with heavy hitters such as Juan Atkins and Robert Hood, and other releases include “Crepuscular Rays” EP on Orlando Voorn’s label Nightvision. He will be supported by Entropy bossman Nanogram, a seasoned digger and big contributor to our local IBM scene.

  • Nanogram

    Nanogram is the Hong Kong-based DJ project of Jason Ng. Since 2017, Nanogram has evolved through different genres ultimately finding his unique style of blending techno, industrial, and experimental electronic music. Heavily inspired by post-punk and industrial music culture, Nanogram has since determined to bring the dystopian sound to Hong Kong. Realizing the lack of well-tuned sound systems and a music-focused venue in Hong Kong, which limits the possibility of enjoying the far left segment of electronic music, Nanogram found a team of like-minded and driven individuals to build 宀 Club together and started his event series at the club – Entropy 熵, which emphasizes on experimentation on the art of selection, mixing and live performances. Nanogram is a resident DJ of 宀 Club and has performed alongside Phase Fatale, Mr. Ho, Sinus O, and more. He has also performed at a renowned experimental venue in Tokyo, KGR Tokyo, and has contributed a podcast mix to C-Kay’s Coma Hole series.
