CSS068: FLORA YIN-WONG
[DJ SET]
03052020
London-born, Chinese-Malaysian producer, writer and DJ, Flora Yin-Wong works with field recordings, dissonance, and influences from contemporary club culture. Her debut releases were via PAN, and PTP - a tape release 'City God' was inspired by tutelary deities and the afterlife in Daoist tradition. Experimenting with various digital software and lo-fi recording processes, her work densely layers original samples - instruments like yangqin, gamelan reongs, and tsurigane bells - with granular synthesis and electronic production.

Our mission is constantly evolving as we strive to integrate programs with collaborators and residents. To cultivate music as sound and to introduce new music breaking genres.
Cultivated Sound is an interdisciplinary platform where artists from all art forms collaborate and have the ability to join the programs we offer, we exercise collaboration, experimentation, and boundary pushing paradigms of artist output alongside local artists to expand their practice.
Our aim is to facilitate cross-cultural, multi-vocal dialogue creating opportunities for future cooperation and to provide a supportive, inspiring environment for new experiences within the musical environs of the New York underground electronic music scene.
WE ARE DEDICATED — DRIVING WHAT’S NEXT.
︎ HISTORY
Cultivated Sound has been throwing parties in Brooklyn since 2015. Our roots in techno were our foundation as we focused on forward-thinking club experiences that linked music, fashion, art, and video. We revealed new perspectives on established artists & those breaking through to promote a unique vision of what dance music and club culture can be. Cultivated Sound existed to inspire audiences and build towards the shared flourishing of the music scene at home and abroad.
