#chinese indie rock

Wink by HedgeHog ((刺猬). 2006.

HedgeHog are a Chinese indie rock band originating from Beijing, China. Formed in 2005, ZO and Atom started HedgeHog and were completed by bassist He Yifan in 2010. Their music mixes “hook-filled melodicism and quirky art rock”; capturing the wide-eyed optimism of early 2000s youth. Their dedication to establishing their own voice - even as they have had drastic stylistic changes between albums - has made them one of the best loved indie bands in China.

Wink is one of the main singles from their first album, Happy Idle Kid.
