The group consists of Hong Kong born identical twin brothers Ming and Ping (last names unknown) and their producer/creative director Bao Vo.
The brothers have stated in numerous interviews that they are heavily influenced by 80s new wave bands such as Pet Shop Boys and New Order, and their 2007 album Causeway Army appeared in XLR8R magazine's March 2008 top ten, where it was described as "full of high-energy electro pop that works just as well in a Prada boutique as it would a gritty nightclub in London.
Vo is also responsible for assembling the brothers as a musical act and the supporting cast for their Cantonese Opera inspired live performances[2][4] known as "The Ming & Ping Dynasty."
These performances have been exhibited on tour with Freezepop and with groups such as Major Lazer, West Indian Girl, and Ultraviolet Sound.
In 2009 they released an iPhone application entitled Ming & Ping Pong, a version of the game Pong featuring their music and visual aesthetic,[5] and they make use of the Sonoma Wire Works application FourTrack and Retronyms' DopplerPad to begin work on new songs.
