60 Seconds with Shawn Campbell

Favorite Hong Kong noise:
“Cheng mat cow kan che moon, please stand back from the doors”

Idol:
Billy

Reading:
“Silent Spring” by Rachel Carson. It’s about the development and use of pesticides. Ignorant use can lead to the eventual death of all living things.

On Hong Kong’s music scene:
Grass roots. International DJs aren’t worth their weight in salt. Or Vegemite, even.

Worst gig:
My first: I was taking the plastic wrapper off records I’d never listened to before. For years I just collected records without ever playing them.

Funeral music:
Anything by Johnny Cash.
