Keep Hush Local: Taipei Taiwan might be known globally as a tech powerhouse or the birthplace of bubble tea, but the real drive of its capital stems from an unapologetic cultural embrace. Anchored at the intersection of East Asian and Austronesian heritage, and as Asia's first nation to legalise same-sex marriage, this progressive foundation directly nurtures a thriving underground culture and alternative creative space. This fertile ground fuels a nightlife scene that champions hybrid soundscapes, elevates diverse voices, and fiercely protects queer dance floors. Three local entities—electronic music-centric vinyl shop Slipped Disk Records, ADM club night series tearSPA, and deconstructed club label Over My Body—have joined forces to bring the UK’s prominent electronic music platform, Keep Hush, to Taipei for its debut. United by a shared underground family ethos and DIY spirit, our alliance presents a programme of veteran and rising selectors and MCs who weave their cultural backgrounds into sonic identity. The lineup reflects the raw vitality and inclusivity of our city, spanning indigenous chants, Taikebeats, Mandopop flips, bouncy SEA dance music, dialect-infused rap, queer charms, afro ritmo bass culture, and a broader spectrum of global club sounds. Hosted inside a traditional temple converted multipurpose space, the event features Formosa Soundsystem, Taiwan’s first handcrafted reggae rig, to deliver massive vibrations, with video production by pivotal community radio Toha. Taking place a week before Christmas, this outdoor day-to-night gathering acts as an end-of-year celebration to connect and dance ahead of the festive season. More than a showcase, Keep Hush Local: Taipei brings the city's distinct sounds, crews, and spaces together under one roof. Date: 19th, Dec (Sat.) Time: 14:00 - 22:00 Loc: Miculture Tiger Mountain, No. 186-1, Lane 221, Fude St, Zhongpo Village, Xinyi District, Taipei City, 110
