They don’t happen often, but there’s a need to do things, because though you might not know why, there’s the inner voice of Nike yelling at you to Just Do It.
Seeing a big hole for music in Hong Kong, started up is MusicHK- registered the name as a limited company, brought in a legal team because releasing music and owning it needs those who know the copyright law protecting the property.
Music is music and it’s also a business. It’s success is about being a creative balance.
It’s also having the confidence to stick to your guns and not waver. Waver and you lose a quaver.
There are millions of people out there supposedly in music without an original idea in their bones, and waiting to take without giving because of creative bankruptcy.
Without making empty promises, MusicHK isn’t just another music company with a few artists.
What’s the point of that? That would kinda be like being Marty McFly and travelling back to wherever and rejoIning Universal Music or EMI Music, or both, running their offices in the region and signing up some artists.
MusicHK is about plugging music into everything else happening in Hong Kong and giving this everything else extra pizazz.
It’s about music enhancing the Made In Hong Kong brand- and giving Hong Kong something new to make it feel good and happy.
Of course, it’s also about asking if there are truly original artists in Hong Kong who are younger than 40 and ready to speak for a new generation through their music - inspiring and positive music.
MusicHK is about getting behind artists who don’t necessarily have to be Chinese, and are genuinely talented and original and aren’t interested in Instagram fame or “gigging” at five star hotels singing covers of “Flowers” and “Imagine”.
