Endless Return (ER) is a small experimental arts and music platform from Singapore spearheaded by butoh dancer XUE and sound 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 curatorial series dedicated to charting the sonic badlands of Singapore and Southeast Asia, staging provocations not only locally, but around the region.

A recipient of the NTU CCA: Platform Projects Curatorial Award in 2021, ER is dedicated to unearthing and showcasing the most subversive of the Singapore/regional underground and cross-disciplinary performance acts. ER's recent music releases include "Parodyse City" (2023) by Singaporean DJ and producer Vangoth666 and 'Jawir' by Yogyakarta based experimental trio Proto Animalia. 

ER has been featured on publications like Mixmag Asia, Female Magazine Singapore and Life in Arpeggio and was the recipient of a Creative Grant by Refraction Festival in 2022 and most recently a T:>Works Per°Form Open Academy of Arts and Activations Fellow. ER has also been a resident with Hong Kong Community Radio for the past two years.
