With the world pretty much kept out of Aotearoa New Zealand thanks to a certain pandemic, we have to find the world within our shores. And the surprising thing is how often that seems to be happening. Take the Eastern Sound Collective - a loose network of pan-Asian musicians mostly located in Wellington. The group recently formed after one of the founders saw the success of such groups in the UK. After a major event was postponed, thanks to Covid, a new event ESC IN SESSION has been scheduled for next week at the Capital's live venue Meow. Yadana Saw caught up with Collective members Karnan Saba and founding member Aridnam Sen.
