除去摇滚音乐,大陆音乐人制作出的相当优秀的专辑之一。

同名曲从个人视角出发看待即将到来的香港回归,用这一事件象征对未来的美好憧憬,是真诚的,但情感单一,多少会感觉这首歌有点肤浅,专辑中的其他曲目弥补了这一点,曲风芭乐带点民谣,情感饱满,部分曲目的器乐在那时的中国是比较新潮的,比如《爱人你住在哪里》。(2026.8.15)

伟大的音乐。

Aug. 3, 2026 Review 伟大的音乐 - 很多世界音乐,如果除去对新奇音色和异域风情的滤镜,其结构和情感并不高明,甚至不少本质是西方音乐,只是套上了异域的外壳,但这张根源南非的专辑不在此列。 音乐的重点首先是 Busi Mhlongo 的演唱,这张专辑里她的演唱可谓出神入化,不管是深情还是激烈,她都游刃有余,没有一个不精彩的唱段。其次是主唱和和声的编排,两者交错并互相应和,编排用心且自然,带来了潮水版不停歇的情感传达。至于器乐,因为人声太过亮眼而被掩盖了,但是这张器乐的水平并不比人声低,有许多器乐独奏的段落,丝滑流畅。因为不理解音乐使用的语言,看每首歌标题后附带的英文标题,才能知道每首歌的主题,在聆听过程中代入此主题会有更好的聆听体验。 它通过人声应和激起了原始情感,同时编排本身的秩序、音乐中的觉知和悲悯是现代性的体现,这或许就是专辑名 Urban Zulu 的含义。一小时里每一秒听感都是情感充沛且流畅舒适的,其中的觉知和悲悯不需要理解其语言,已经通过音乐本身成功传达至了听众,这是伟大的音乐,毫无疑问的杰作。

中离!
——生活是一句哑谜,在你想都还没想好问题究竟是什么,答案却呼之欲出。
“中离”是网路时代流行术语,
意指那些游戏才玩到一半,各种因故离开的玩家。
这一生就像是线上游戏,当每接到一个任务,就意味将要拓荒一部分阴影地图,或解锁更新的关卡。这款游戏的目标只有一个:认识你自己。直到你“登出”的那天,你能回馈给游戏的,就是你每次做选择时,你内心中的信念和专注。
在这场长达“六十万小时”的开放任务里,你可能会玩到一场别人已经玩过的游戏;也不一定你玩得很吃力,却透过和同在的玩家们一起狂欢过、争吵过,而合解过、道别过。
有一条特别窄的道路在这款游戏,专门服务那些不满足于普通玩法的职业型选手,他们走上这条路,就像点选高难度模式。纵使每一次战斗都可能旋即输尽,但不同的惊险历程却也伴随最高意志的低语,只要你准备好,祂便会告诉你那把终极钥匙在何处。
从最高难度游戏过关的人,即自动中离且不受到任何游戏惩罚!中离者将与每一世代的中离者们相遇;正因为他们都曾展现同一种过人勇气,所以他们是心心相映的。他们也将永驻青春,在隐藏的伺服器里携手维持有意识的和谐,而他们获得的奖赏?是接近无所不能。
邱比沉迷于时空之外,透过写歌和内心的真我连结,从混乱臣服当下。
11首独特视角的先锋歌词跟未来世代无缝接轨,邱比的极简之曲透过沈安华丽的西岸风格,共谱当今流行之最;邱比邀请义大利电音诗人Alfa Hydri为《中离》作序、平面设计师龙佑玟再度设计专辑封面。
一面是刚烈真情的激流,一面是遗世独立的雍容。邱比把他最大的希望寄托在未知,用《中离》携手他的乐迷们一起脱胎换骨,成为出凡入圣的平衡探险者。
“这张新专辑声音听起来非常清脆、干净、瞬态好!『纯粹』是最高赞誉。听众可以第一次好好地认识我的歌声。利用全新的麦克风与有别以往的唱歌方式,全辑在人声处理上做到了自然的现场感,一口气听完,像一趟神奇的旅程。”—— 邱比
当你一鼓作气听完《中离》,你全身的小细胞都会开始用最鲜活的方式运作,最初可能有点辛苦,但不久后你就会越来越舒缓。紧追那无声的悸动,他会引领你穿越时空,发现古老的无限矿藏!

它的高级感来源于两点,第一是音乐没有多余的部分,每个组成元素都用意明确,第二是将有限的音乐组成部分打磨得精致的同时,有着坚实的情感传达,视角独特,在社会中将自己剥离出来,并去审视周围,部分曲目甚至有一种悲悯感。演唱方式很难不让人想到王菲,人声有着王菲的细节,情感和姿态比后者 Urban。

July 18, 2026 Review 载入史册的专辑 - 不加修饰的人声不是这张专辑的短板,而是这张专辑美学重要的组成部分,作为叙事主体的他,在这张专辑的形象就像封面一样,赤裸裸,这张专辑的歌词和念白理应使用这样的人声,这是有意而为,凭他的制作水平,把人声修得精致并不困难。 他对自己的音乐有着全方面的掌控,结构上没有像很多地下音乐那样试图往流畅和流行靠拢,而是有一种迟钝和低沉感,这象征着情感的压抑,孩童对白和闪现的音乐片段唤起童年的思绪和接收到的温暖。除了 Feature 的部分,他对自己的音乐想要表达什么很清楚,组成部分很少有单纯为了增加听感而存在的,每个音乐元素基本上都是为了表达音乐人的情感。 专辑中最让人震撼的是《让我飞吧》里的复杂情感,我会说听这首歌就像听崔健的音乐一样,是中国人的特权,因为只有中国人才有着与这首歌一样的境况,才能被这首歌里难以用语言描绘出来的情感触动,只有在中国的文化氛围里成长的人才能完全理解这首歌,无关性向。将生活中的复杂情感,通过音乐传达出来,这首歌已经做到了完美。 中国音乐不好说,要看后续有多少人听到,但这肯定是中国地下音乐载入史册的专辑,会比何勇的《垃圾场》在中国音乐里更重要,中国酷儿音乐有了自己的圣经。

Wild Honey is the thirteenth studio album by American rock band the Beach Boys, released December 18, 1967 on Capitol Records.

The album was the band's worst-selling at that point, charting at number 24 in the US. Lead single "Wild Honey" peaked at number 31, while its follow-up "Darlin'" reached number 19. In the UK, the album peaked at number seven.

The Civil War in France
release date Nov. 29, 2024
Written between Summer 2022 and Summer 2024, this is the answer to 2022's "Where'd Everyone Go ?". Where "Where'd Everyone Go ?" shows a descent into depression, isolation, and insecurity "There You Are !" shows the opposite, a gradual, painful escape from the depths of suicidality, gender dysphoria, heartbreak, and loneliness. The songs here collect my last two years of finding myself personally, sexually, stylistically, and the hardship that that entails. I want to thank the people that I wrote these songs about or for, you all helped make me into who I am today and without you I couldn't be me. Thank you to my closest friends June, Will, Kayleigh, Greta, and Hayley, for dragging me out of whatever bullshit I threw myself into, and for listening to me ramble about how the album needs more low end, or the snare isn't loud enough, or whatever other nitpicks I had, I love ya'll to death. Additionally I'd like to thank B Lambert and Will Schwester for truly inspiring me and pushing me to be the best musician and artist I can be, you two are the artists I look up to the most, love both of y'all so much. Lastly I'd like to thank everyone listening, everyone who looked forward to this album, everyone who's ever asked us to play a show or to come to their city, everyone who's bought or DIYed merch, and everyone who's reached out generally. Genuinely thank you from the bottom of my heart !!!!!!

Attica! neodb.social Douban
Wussy genre: rock
release date May 13, 2014 publisher: Shake It! Records
Attica! is the 5th album from Cincinnati's Wussy, and the first to be released jointly in the US and UK. These 11 new tracks were recorded with old Afghan Whigs pal John Curley at Cincinnati's legendary Ultrasuede Studios. John Erhardt rejoins forces with former Ass Ponys bandmate Chuck Cleaver as the band's fifth member on some Dark-Side-inspired pedal steel, adding a further psychedelic element to Wussy's ever-developing swirl of noise. Attica! is the band's loudest and quietest record to date, finding Cleaver and co-leader Lisa Walker at their lyrical best and Wussy as a whole at their weirdest and finest. About Wussy: Fronted by former Ass Pony Chuck Cleaver and the previously unaffiliated and brilliant Lisa Walker, Cincinnati's Wussy is a rock band that'll remind you on the deepest level why you love rock bands. The central conceit: Submerging pristine, literate songwriting in the rumble and roar of a full band. The secret weapon: A chemistry so rare, powerful, and under-recognized it inspired Robert Christgau--America's tersest rock critic--to publish a 2,000-word love letter to ''the best band in America.'' (David Schmader, The Stranger)

大部分人知道 Wussy 是因为 Robert Christgau 对其的极力推崇,他给了这张专辑在他评价体系里最高的评价,并说 Wussy 是「美国最好的乐队」,而且「超过 Sonic Youth 成为美国最好的失真吉他乐队」,是否如此有待考虑,但至少这张专辑的第一首歌,Teenage Wasteland,比 Sonic Youth 的任何一首歌都要好,尤其比相同情绪的 Teen Age Riot 要好得多。Teenage Wasteland 是我听过最浪漫的歌曲,这首的声音效果棒极了,人声好似回荡在空中,但更像是飘荡在你失落人生的一面旗帜,带来灵魂上的共鸣和战栗,听 Bruce Springsteen 的 Thunder Road 能带来类似的体验,但这首更为刻骨铭心。除此之外的曲目曲作没有这首出彩,但依然浪漫无比,两位主唱的演唱是这张专辑最优秀的地方。

完全由采样构成的专辑,奉行盗取主义 (Plunderphonics),器乐、人声和各种音效全是采样,我想这种方式也凝结了他对唱片这种音乐介质的热爱,2019 年时他已收藏了六万多张唱片。这张专辑如此好听的关键在于采样的音效,几乎每首都有抓耳且有趣的或合成器或器乐采样,还有就是,他采样了架子鼓的「镲」,这在嘻哈里很少见到,原因我觉得可能是觉得太吵了,可以听一下 Gang Starr 的 The Place Where We Dwell、People Under the Stairs 的 Suite for Beaver Pt. 1 和 Dr. Dre 的 Rat-Tat-Tat-Tat,这样密集的声音会喧宾夺主的,但是在器乐嘻哈里面就很合适,和鼓一起铺满了整张专辑,开篇第二首歌采样的爵士鼓手 Georg Mash "I'm a student of the drums, I'm also a teach of drums too",暗示整张专辑鼓的精彩,The Number Song 和 Mutual Slump 里鼓在狂欢。如果不认真听会忽略「镲」声的存在,我觉得「镲」声对整张专辑至关重要,没有这个整张专辑会变得普通。

In a Special Way neodb.social Douban
DeBarge genre: 放克/灵歌/R&B
release date Jan. 1, 1983 publisher: Motown
After the release of 1982's All This Love, the group became one of the most popular and talented acts in music. While that effort was a likeable though uneven affair, In A Special Way was, in short, a classic. This boasts a minimalist and artful sound, and rumor has it that the horn tracks were lost during the recording. So as a result In A Special Way is one of the most spare and effective albums of the '80s. The first track, the synth based "Be My Lady," and the bittersweet and pragmatic "Need Somebody," both feature lead vocals from James DeBarge. In A Special Way also marked the coming of age of the vocally gifted El DeBarge as a producer and writer. The biggest hit here, the poignant and spare "Time Will Reveal," is perfect, from its beautiful arrangement and flawless backing vocals to El DeBarge's amazing lead. His prowess also makes the potentially overdone sentiments of "Love Me In A Special Way" come off instead as romantic and effective. The last track, "A Dream," was written and sung by Bunny DeBarge. With a great melody line, the song accurately attains a sense of longing as Bunny DeBarge's lead is particularly moving. Although R&B and rap have appropriated segments of this album in every conceivable manner, the greatness begins and ends with this album.
