Sinogaze is a music genre that blends shoegaze and dream pop with Chinese lyrics and melodies. It features ethereal vocals, distorted guitars, and atmospheric soundscapes that create a dreamy and introspective mood. The genre often explores themes of nostalgia, longing, and emotional turmoil, and is characterized by its use of reverb and delay effects. Schoolgirl Byebye, 缺省, and I Mean Us are all examples of sinogaze bands that have gained popularity in recent years.
