Chin Xaou Ti Won is now part of the Do For It collective based out of Denton, Texas. Please be sure to check out everything they have to offer.
Chin Xaou Ti Won's music knows no borders, be it China, Hungary or the Republic of Texas. Marcus Cone and St-Michel are the exclusive perfromers of the great, yet unknown composer, Chin Xaou Ti Won. Enjoy his works as we enjoy them - striking melodies and beautiful rhythmic passages. With CXTW's majesty and Marcus' and St-M's love affair with 80's synth culture, contemporary classical structure and crashing bombardments of percussion, the composer's little known opuses have been elevated to powerful etudes of musical juxtoposition of sound and character - be it a fine-line balance between an aching melancholy and semi-juvenile aggresion or tonal and the atonal. Listen, enjoy and progress....
Our hearts are stricken and grey over the charges of war on Jupiter. It's time we make a stand - why should we let the good nations of this gaseous giant fall?
