“I think when I was younger, growing up in the suburbs, I felt I wanted to scrub myself of my Asian-ness to blend into the world around me, but as I got older, I felt that I had an advantage of being able to explore and express many of the sides of myself,” Canadian producer and singer-songwriter Ging tells Apple Music. “It’s shown me I don’t need to be one thing, but I can be many things at once.” For his Dream Beyond playlist in honor of AAPI Heritage Month, Ging handpicked personal favorite tracks from Japanese electronic band Yellow Magic Orchestra, fellow Canadian singer-songwriter Jonah Yano, and experimental composer Meitei. “These are artists that cannot be defined by genre or one specific sound but ever-evolving ongoing exploration,” he says. “This is what I’m striving for in my music. It really is about the boundless exploration of what is possible.” Save this playlist to your library so you can revisit it during this month and beyond.
