Yan Jun, born in 1973 in Lanzhou, China, now lives in Beijing. He graduated from Northwest Normal University with a BA in literature. In the late 1990s he was involved with the Chinese underground rock movement as a critic and organizer. Around 2003, when this scene was over, he started to make field recordings and then his own music. Since then he has organized hundreds of events under his label Sub Jam/Kwanyin Records. Yan Jun uses feedback as an open system of improvised music. He also works with site-specific sound to trigger people to feel lost, to think, to be mentally moved or to laugh.
