Sense & Sound: Five Ways into Taiwanese Pop MusicA Live House is more than just a stage; it%u2019s a space carved out by artists before the infrastructure ever caught up. From the underground venues of the 1990s like Underworld and SCUM, to today%u2019s professional-grade venues such as SUB and Legacy TERA within TMC, these spaces have borne witness to Taiwanese pop music%u2019s journey from the margins to the heart of the industry. Beyond sound, they carry the aspirations of generations of creators: the desire to be seen, to be understood, and to transform music into a force that reshapes the rhythm of the city, one live show at a time.Sam YangArthur ChenLead vocalist of the band Fire EX., co-founder of the record label Fire On Music, and founder of the rock music festival FireBall Festival.
