December, 2006: The Beijing Olympics were but a glimmer in Hu Jintao’s eye; Shanghai hadn’t even begun planning the Expo yet; Twitter had just launched and Sina Weibo was still a few years off…
A lot has happened since that early December week when Split Works hosted its very first concerts, with Maximo Park. The British alt-rockers were the first foreign band ever one of the first foreign bands to play Beijing’s then-newly-opened Star Live, and the first band period to play Shanghai’s now long defunct 4Live.
Maximo Park, 2006
In the five years following, we are proud to have toured 30 Chinese cities with over 150 wickedly talented acts from all over the globe and another 11 Asian countries including a first show from an international band in Myanmar.
Sonic Youth, 2007
We’ve also launched 3 festivals (Yue, Black Rabbit, JUE | Music + Art…). Our longest running festival, JUE, will be back for a 4th time March 9-25, 2012, in Shanghai and in Beijing. Sign up for our newsletter here to get more deets as we announce them…
We have hosted artists as varied as Sonic Youth, Jose Gonzalez, Caribou, Emilie Simon, Ghostface Killah, and Owl City, and worked with scores of talented domestic artists, many of whom we count among our close friends.
Jens Lekman, 2008
Steve Aoki, 2009
Trippple Nippples, 2010
We represent several acts exclusively in Asia, and we are actively involved in developing the careers of artists like Handsome Furs, Olafur Arnalds and Hanggai. We have established online communities dedicated to building knowledge of both our industry here and the music we love, while helping brands like Bacardi, Converse and Apple connect with music fans in China.
Black Rabbit Music Festival, 2011
In celebration of these 5 exhilarating years, we are putting together 5 special shows over 5 nights in our Shanghai home, from across the musical spectrum, with bands we have worked with before and bands we are lucky enough to be working with for the first time. Please come join us at some or all and have a dance and drink. It’s been our pleasure – we hope it’s been yours too…
Love,

2006年12月，北京还在为奥运大兴土木，世博离上海还很遥远，Twitter刚刚诞生没多久，新浪微博还在襁褓之中
而就在那个月初的周末，Split Works 主办了她在中国的第一次乐队巡演 ——Maximo Park，这群极具现场力的英国摇滚青年，成为了最早一批踏上北京星光现场的国外乐队中的一支；也造就了现已成为历史的上海4Live开业后的首场演出。在这之后，很多事情就这么开始发生了……
2006年， Maximo Park
在随后的5年中，我们很荣幸地把来自全球各个国家超过150组乐队和音乐人带到中国巡演，足迹遍布了全国30个城市，及亚洲11个国家。我们还在缅甸组织了该国首场国际乐队演出。
2007年，Sonic Youth
此外，我们还主办了三个大型活动项目（十跃音乐节、黑兔音乐节和《觉》音乐+艺术节 ），其中《觉》作为我们最长久的年度音乐艺术节，明年春天将在上海和北京迎来它的4岁生日。具体时间为2012年3月9-25日。你可以在这里订阅我们的资讯邮件，获得更多信息。
我们和各类音乐风格的艺人一起合作，既有Sonic Youth, Jose Gonzalez, Caribou, Emilie Simon, Ghostface Killah 和 Owl City 这样国际知名的音乐人和乐队。也有许多充满才华的国内艺人，其中有很多已成为了我们的好朋友。
2008年，Jens Lekman
2009年，Steve Aoki
2010年，Trippple Nippples
另外，我们是不少艺人在亚洲的独家演出代理，也在诸如Handsome Furs, Olafur Arnalds 和 杭盖乐队等艺人音乐事业的发展中起到了十分积极的作用。我们建立了两个在线社区网站（无解音乐网 和 China Music Radar），分享我们在这个行业的观察和所热爱的音乐，也帮助百家得、匡威和苹果等品牌建立了与中国乐迷的连接。
2011年黑兔音乐节
为了庆祝这令人兴奋的5周年，我们将在上海举行5夜6场特别的演出。其中有我们曾经合作过的乐队，也少不了我们有幸第一次合作的音乐人。欢迎来参加我们的周年庆，体验这份欢乐。相信我们也能将这份乐趣传递给你。
爱,
