New Music brings together recent releases, radio shows, DJ mixes and editorial coverage featuring newly issued tracks on Scientific Sound Asia. The category isn't limited to one genre, and includes current music from across the station's electronic, underground and independent programming.
The section covers singles, EPs, albums, remixes and label compilations alongside radio episodes built around recent material. It may also include guest mixes, release announcements and tracklists containing a significant number of new or forthcoming records.
Scientific Sound Asia uses the category to connect listeners with current work from established artists, emerging producers and independent record labels. Music may range from House, Techno and Drum and Bass to Hip Hop, Funk, Disco, Jazz, Reggae and genre-crossing electronic releases.
Radio programmes listed under New Music can combine newly released tracks with selected older records when this supports the direction of the show. The classification indicates that recent music forms a central part of the episode, rather than requiring every track to be brand new.
The New Music category provides one place to explore the latest additions to Scientific Sound Asia's editorial and radio output. It helps listeners follow current releases, discover new artists and find programmes that document what DJs and labels are playing now.
At Scientific Sound Asia, new music is a defining feature of After Hours, with further appearances on Marco Mei and Velvety Elements.
