天浩盛世
4000年前,马从原始世界的游荡中脱离而出,进入到了人类社会。自此,它在人的历史中一次次腾飞、跋涉,塑造出一幅幅生动的形象。一匹马,也有它的命运轨迹;一介马夫,也有他深藏心底的夙愿;一把马头琴,也有它的天涯憧憬。马,它不只是我们的交通工具,它更是我们的家人和故友。
为什么,我们不可以为马写一段故事、唱一支歌儿?
2016年,杭盖再度归来,回到你身旁,带来了他们的新专辑《花斑马》,这是他们出道以来的第五张作品。在秉承着蒙古音乐内核的基础上,作出了更加多元化的变革与创新,但依旧紧贴着游牧民族滚烫的时代脉搏,足以令乐迷充满期待。

Play It Again Sam
'Aventine' is the eagerly anticipated new album from Agnes Obel, released 30th September on Play It Again Sam. 'Aventine' is the follow up to her critically acclaimed debut album 'Philharmonics' (2010), which has sold 450,000 copies across Europe, achieving Platinum status in France and Belgium, five times Platinum in her native Denmark, where Agnes picked up five Danish Music Awards (the Danish Brits) in 2011.
Originally from Copenhagen, Agnes has lived in Berlin since 2006, where 'Aventine' was recorded at her Chalk Wood Studios between January and May this year. Like 'Philharmonics', the new album was written, arranged, and produced by Agnes, who provides piano and vocals. Anne M_ller, who has also played with Nils Frahm, adds cello, with Mika Posen of Timber Timbre playing the violin and viola on 'The Curse', 'Pass Them By' and 'Fivefold'. Robert Kondorossi of Budzillus plays guitar on 'Pass Them By'.
"While touring 'Philharmonics' I kept on getting all these ideas for recording, and I wanted to explore the cello and other string instruments" says Agnes of 'Aventine'. "I recorded everything quite closely, miking everything closely in a small room, with voices here, the piano here - everything is close to you. So it's sparse, but by varying the dynamic range of the songs I could create almost soundscapes. I was able to make something feel big with just these few instruments."
Agnes Obel will play a few intimate shows before the album release, prior to a full European tour in the autumn. Details to follow soon.

“我见日光之下所作的一切事都是虚空,都是捕风。” ——《圣经‧旧约》| 传道书 1:14
“I have seen everything that is done under the sun; and behold, all is vanity and a striving after wind.” (Ecclesiastes 1:14)
犹太人和基督徒曾认为智慧可以解决所有疑难杂症,但《传道书》的作者所罗门却发现了一个难题——生的困惑与死的虚空。在生死面前,智慧显得无能为力。
世界不变,然而世事多变。即使尽力寻求真相和永恒,人类也无法窥得大多数事物的发展规律。当行为受限于规律又无法永恒,人类便试图从物质中寻找“永恒”的替代品,边找边陷入循环往复的惶恐中。
于是所罗门向世人提供了一种摆脱“困惑和虚空”的方法:归顺某种信仰。有时,与其刻意追求某事物而不成落得满心失望,不如顺其自然反而有幸获得神谕的指引。其实我们东方也有相似的思想,名叫“无为”。看似没有作为实际已有成效,顺应自然于是什么都可以达到。
作为苏紫旭“世界音乐项目”第一支释出的单曲,《无踪》既包含了西方宗教对于世俗的困惑又杂糅进道家的无为气度。苏和塔布拉鼓手安志华历时半年,试图在两种概念间寻找到平衡点。 伴随着而后加入的大提琴、吉他、长笛,尤其是艺术家王晓芳的扬琴弹奏,人声乐声终于配合在一起讲出一个有情有境的故事:他在某个夜晚被大雨拦截在一家客栈,念及近日琐事心绪难平,借酒买醉,一觉醒来后顿感舒畅,身骑白马一路绝尘而去。
再潇洒的得道者偶尔也会迷失在道义、仕途甚至是才子佳人身上,何况心神不定的寻常人。若把苏比作侠客,不知来去无踪和生死奥义是不是他向往的境界和最想探求的事呢?
从《梦停留》到《莫衷一是》再听到《无踪》,你循着苏紫旭铺设的道路前行,停驻回望,过往早已化为点点繁星。你恍然大悟,原来不畏牵绊的心才最洒脱,飞过长空不留痕的雁才最动人。
毕竟这世上的一切呀,
都是虚空,都是捕风,来去也无踪。
爱晚亭下

十三月唱片
这首歌,来自于一个非常久远的动机,后来巡演路过岳麓书院而得名。
半年后,一夜成歌,爱晚亭下人孤绝。
《爱晚亭下》,从有段子到最后成歌,是整整一年有余的时间。歌里,追忆着不可追忆的人,怀念着不可怀念的夜。
纵然我们万般恐惧于潮水的危险,它也会如期而涨;纵然我们万般迷恋于潮水的美丽,它也会如期而碎。
日出日落一趟,泼墨即唱;潮涨潮碎,留白于黑。
往事不可追唯有沉睡。
北方汉子苏紫旭的这两年,经历了无数的演出和奔波。风里雨里、名利场里,任谁都会一天天变得全副武装。
苏紫旭却反而像个赤膊上阵的少年一样,更加肆无忌惮地表达本真。
这个九月,苏发布自己不同项目的两支单曲,个人项目的单曲《爱晚亭下》首先发出。在这首歌的创作中,苏紫旭回归了东方式的表达,虽编曲器乐部分还是用了西方乐器,长笛、大提琴等,但“意为先,容器随取。”
苏紫旭的绝望美学,有时候是一种含蓄的、杀伤力大的、小心翼翼的绝望。这股情绪,不焦不躁,带着过去的罪,以及眼望未来的黑。
他把这样的情绪表达,同样藏在这首《爱晚亭下》中:藏在木吉他贝斯和大提琴里,藏在仿佛Radiohead般敏感的前奏后面,藏在山谷里,藏在惊涛后。
他藏在每一只倦鸟的羽毛里,藏在酒里,把时光和爱酝酿出来的混账情绪梳理一番。
这个人,愈加像一坛酒,里头全是明明白白的醉;
这首歌,更像是一个礼物,送给过去和未来,送给旧貌和新颜,送给所有人,一醉。

晚上好,又发新歌了,名字叫做《倏尔》。
《倏尔》的写作动机和歌名一样,突然、迅速,瞬间被击中的感觉,是秋天的歌。
北京的秋天很美,天气好时出门去,好到一切无所适从的动机都被新鲜的冷空气稀释,自然的决定、犯错、接受。
辗转录音室、排练房、巡演路上,或去往某场地的途中,即使休息时身体也难以静止,像结束长途驾驶后的机车引擎,惯性让我发烫。
是啊!不得不再转一会儿,秋天来了又去,冷却下来写歌。
万物绽放美,凋谢也美,沉默是失落之歌。
虽已入冬,可心里残留秋意。
幸有音乐。不如抛光打磨放在空地上,有缘人来取。
疼痛使人清醒,也使人沉浸。
祝好梦。
