About the Company:
BORN IN CHINESE is a phrase I encountered several years ago. Uttered by someone in a fit of ignorance, it struck me as amusing, sad, and offensive all at the same time. But rather than be angered at those words, or simply laugh it off, I decided to use it to spread Asian American cultural awareness.
Thus, I formed this company: BORN IN CHINESE. I have hopes that one day no one will ever be so uninformed as to believe that having black hair and almond-shaped eyes means that I was born in a country called “Chinese.†The struggle continues... at least we now have some great music to accompany it.

-------------------------------------------
CompilAsian is, simply put, a collection of Asian American music. As a music lover, I am proud to call many of these artists my friends. As an Asian American musician, I am honored to call them all my colleagues. I hope you enjoy listening to this compilation as much as I have enjoyed making it. And please, if any of these songs move you in any way, reach out to the artists, buy their CDs, tell all your friends about them… or just blast the music really loud from your stereo.
These artists originate from around the country and the music spans rock, pop, R&B, acoustic, and singer-songwriter genres. From the alternative power-pop of Johnny Hi-Fi and the synth rock of Blip Blip Bleep, to the jazz infused vocal stylings of Cynthia Lin and the indie acoustic sounds of Big Phony, CompilAsian represents a sampling of the incredible talent that the Asian American music community has to offer. This collection has something for everyone.
