jasonsimms United States	Hi I'm coming to the Olympics and some music magazines I write for are interested in stories about Chinese bands or the Chinese music scene (or foreign bands who live or play in China). Do you have any suggestions of artists I should try to interview while in Beijing?

Small--Q China	Yes most of them are my favourite ones. I like them because they are unique. Their styles and qualities can't be replaced by other Chinese singers. BTW I just mentioned singers or bands in Beijing. As to their English names, I think many of them don't have English names. plus 凤凰传奇 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aoNaU_JX6D8

jasonsimms United States	Thanks for all the great links, guys! Can you think of any underground Chinese singers or bands? People who aren't very famous yet, but are very good? Also, in the US, people are very worried about the music industry because it isn't making much money anymore because people download music instead of buying it. How is the music industry in China? Have downloads changed it?
