Endless Return (ER) is a small music platform from Singapore run by butoh dancer XUE and artist/producer Mervin Wong. ER rejects capitalist event structures, opting instead for gatherings that prioritise creative exploration over financial motives.
ER happenings cannibalise and iterate on themselves in the form of eternal Returns — unique events that allow for exciting artistic intersections across art, music and performance. Initially conceived during the pandemic as a virtual rave, ER has evolved into a music label and experimental series dedicated to charting the sonic badlands of Singapore and Southeast Asia.
ER is dedicated to unearthing and showcasing the most subversive of the Singapore underground and like-minded regional acts. ER recent releases include “Parodyse City” (2023) by Singaporean DJ and producer Vangoth666. ER has been featured on publications like Mixmag Asia, Female Magazine Singapore and Life in Arpeggio and was also the recipient of a Creative Grant by Refraction Festival in 2022. ER has also been a resident with Hong Kong Community Radio for the past two years and running.
