For years, The Slants bassist Simon Young said the idea of creating an Asian group with a more electronic sound floated in his head for a couple of years before the Portland, Ore.-based band came to fruition. Their rock-infused synthpop sound – something the band describes as “Chinatown dance rock” – stems from the artists he listened to growing up.
