Allex Chan

Describe your style in three words?
Melodic/Pentatonic/Titanic.

What made you decide to be a singer?
I had plenty of time at school, so I started making music myself. At first, I was just making some instrumental stuff but it seemed a bit boring without any vocals. Thus, I started to sing something online.

If you could be on the line up with any two bands in history?
Yo la Tengo. They make the most heartfelt music in the world. They warm my heart when I listen to their album every time. Haruomi Hosono - a legendary composer in Japan, his vision and ideas never get old.

Which subcultures have influenced you?
Hip-hop. Everything started from the bottom.

Where was the most memorable show you ever played?
Supporting act for The Marias. Playing alongside an international band was unbelievable and they followed me back on Instagram!

Tell me about your favourite independent venue in Hong Kong?
TTN (This Town Need) but it is temporarily closed now. This is the breeding ground of Hong Kong indie music and culture. Hopefully, we will meet again shortly.
