	Music of Hong Kong - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Hong Kong has produced a number of popular traditions in music, including a large part of what is known as Cantopop.
		The Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra is renowned in its field.
		In Post-World War II era, the pop music of Hong Kong was largely dominated by English pop songs until the Cantopop emerging in mid-1970s.

	Travel Hong Kong World Music at Global Rhythm - The Destination for World Music
		If Hong Kong has produced any notable indigenous music, we never came upon it: one is just as likely to hear American or British music blaring from radios as Canto-Pop, a Westernized, producer-controlled, overwrought mainstream dance-pop hybrid that is at its heart little more than an excuse to sell this weekâs good-looking teen idol.
		Hong Kong is divided into four main sectionsâ”Hong Kong Island and Kowloon, the main business and residential areas, and the Outlying Islands and New Territories, more rural, closer in temperament to the mainland.
		Hong Kong is a city of many contrasts, where a noisy, smelly fish market clogs a narrow alley in the shadow of a looming skyscraper, and a McDonaldâs sits comfortably next to a Buddhist temple.

		THE HONG KONG, the one time mystery band from New Orleans that newly regrouped in Brooklyn, combines a unique mixture of straight ahead '60s song structures with the drive and backbone of late seventies Brit Rock.
		The Hong Kong's signature sound is a result of their unique use of layered sampling.
		Her hypnotic and passionate vocal delivery ride on top of a wave of pure energy that gives The Hong Kong a sound that is unmatched in the music scene today.

	Hong Kong hip hop - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Hong Kong hip hop scene first began in 1995 with the formation of LMF which was the first rap/rock group signed by a major record label, Warner Music.
		Despite of the popularity of the now disbanded LMF, hip hop music continues to remain underground, led by independent artists, but the mainstream music industry of Hong Kong is still dominated by Cantopop.
		However, the presence of hip hop music in Hong Kong in the shadows of Cantopop is strongly reflected by the collaborations between rappers such as MC Yan (from the now disbanded LMF) with pop artists such as Edison Chen.

		Ultimately, that results in the least introspective or revealing record Madonna has made since Like a Prayer, yet that doesn't mean she doesn't invest herself in the record.
		Working with a stable of producers, she has created an album that is her most explicitly musical and restlessly creative since, well, Like a Prayer.
		This team is responsible for the heart of the record, with such stunners as the intricate, sensual, folk-psych "Don't Tell Me," the eerily seductive "Paradise (Not for Me)," and the thumping title track, which sounds funkier, denser, sexier with each spin.

		On the other hand, live music is such a standard feature of many restaurants, hotel cocktail lounges, and bars, that it would be hard not to hear live music in the SAR.
		Because live music is regarded more as a sidelight than the raison d'être of most Hong Kong establishments, if you're serious about music, you will want to head straight to one of these two venues described.
