On today's show I am joined by my pal Bikyu to give a very broad overview of pop music from Taiwan/T-Pop. Bikyu provides some insights as to how the pop music of Taiwan has responded to various sociopolitical climates, diaspora, and indigenous language revitalisation. If you want to delve deeper into Bikyu's selections, they have curated a larger playlist on Spotify here. Bikyu has also provided reading material for some context! Thanks to Living Goodness, The Tuning Fork and Auckland City of Music for supporting Morning Glory <3
