Swiss band Bubble Beatz staged a percussion show over three consecutive days during the Yang Liping International Dance Festival in Kunming starting December 7. The event attracted many visitors throughout China. The band’s performance took place in a small factory, where they used all kinds of car parts to create sounds and rhythms. The band was formed in 1999 by Kay Rauber and Christian Gschwend. The artists mix electronic dance music and percussions to create their music. The Yang Liping International Dance Festival started this year and is being held in Kunming from December 5 to 22. Artists from the United States, China, Australia and Switzerland have come to bring their music to Chinese audiences. Yang Liping is an award-winning Chinese dancer also known for her peacock dance.
