你指望從一場演出中獲得什麼呢？
釋放情緒，揮發酒精，殺死時間，找到歸屬，裝逼社交，還是僅僅在現場找尋到好的音樂。
要我說，一場演出就如同人生中你可能遇到的任何事一樣，也許某天你不經意地推開某個club的門，在那度過的幾個小時會刷新你對世界的感知，就如同某一天，當你發現馬克思同志曾在《1844年經濟學哲學手稿》中以大量筆墨闡述了物質世界是人類無意識的投射……
至於我們，一個新成立的獨立廠牌想呈現的，是一些還未曾出現在大家眼前的聲音與現場：在春天，我們邀請了駐紮在上海的絕對純潔在京城首演，這是曾在北京獨立音樂場景掀起別樣浪潮的前怪力樂隊女主唱文雋砰的一下消失後首次回到北京的舞臺；同樣是在春天，曾為大家留下深刻印象的樂隊 battle 現場——髒手指 vs.敗犬、解離的真實 vs. Lonely Leary，則開創性地呈現出真正讓每個人都參與其中的現場形式。
這回，我們要帶來的是四支還未被大部分人聽聞的樂隊，他們的共同特點除了籍籍無名之外，迷幻、先鋒、實驗、即興，這些關鍵詞彙集在一起的現場是難以複製的。為了讓這些修飾的辭藻落到實處，還是得一一介紹這幾支還未被大眾發現的珍寶：
一支來自吉林長春的德式迷幻搖滾樂隊——粗糙影像（Rough Image）的神秘就如同他們的家鄉東北留給大多數人的印象一般，在遠離獨立音樂場景之外的那片黑土地上，誕生了這樣純正經典的 Krautrock 之聲，當在茫茫網絡之中發掘到這仿佛不屬於這個時空的聲音時，那樣的驚喜和激動是促使我們費盡周章尋找並邀請他們來到北京的初始動力。
這將是粗糙影像第二次來到北京演出，將近兩年前，在「永遠的噪音小夥伴」梅志勇的帶領下樂隊完成在京首演。如今剛剛從上海第三屆「三角迷幻音樂祭」歸來的他們，憑藉著令人過耳難忘的音色、純熟的技術與創造性的編曲，逐漸建立起在迷幻即興領域中的口碑。最令人難以置信的是，這支由「三大件」組成的樂隊，所有的現場以及音樂平臺中上傳的作品，均是即興而為——專注於當下的心緒而非囿於曲譜，他們自己都表示很難重演以往的曲目，於是每一次現場均是新鮮而獨一無二的。
接下來的三支樂隊也許放在一起介紹會比較方便，對北京獨立音樂有所了解的朋友必然知道兵馬司唱片，而這三支樂隊中的大部分成員均與兵馬司旗下的樂隊有著千絲萬縷的聯繫：成立於2011年的致命搖籃死由Birdstriking 樂隊主唱何凡和前 Chui Wan 樂隊的劉心宇組建，新近成立的白虎更可謂是匯聚了眾多「明星樂手」的超級樂隊，至於慵懶低調的 Sleeping Dogs 則由劉心宇、李子超和來自 Boild Hippo 煮河馬樂隊的阿炳組成。
致命搖籃死作為這三支樂隊中成立最早的一組，卻已久未登臺——在今年6月為美國後朋克樂隊Protomartyr 中國巡演擔任嘉賓前，他們已闊別舞臺近四年，沉寂多時後歸來的他們，現場令人尤為期待。
去年底，Sleeping Dogs 在 Fruity Space的跨年夜中獻上首演，之後卻稱將之前的作品盡數刪去，推倒重來後的新歌究竟什麼樣，除了樂隊三人外就只有來看這場演出的你們知道了。
前不久，初生的白虎在北京、上海初試啼聲，穩健的台風和紮實的器樂編配便已為他們吸引到不少關注，而當人們發現美國傳奇迷幻樂隊 The Brian Jonestown Massacre 的成員 Ricky Maymi 竟跑來中國加入了白虎，這隻從仙界降臨凡間似虎非虎的猛獸周身自帶的迷霧愈加神秘莫測。
三支匯集了北京獨立音樂領域眾多好手的迷幻新聲，將在這個夏末在京城迎接從東北而來的德式迷幻即興樂隊粗糙影像，共同在藏身胡同深處的黃昏黎明俱樂部（DDC）帶來一場名為「迷幻赤縣」的演出交流現場。至於究竟什麼是「迷幻赤縣」，身在這片土地上的我們想必都已有所體會。
Subtropical Asia is a newly established independent label that looks to present new sounds and scenes to the people. In the spring, we invited Shanghai group Absolute Purity, fronted by Wen Lun of the seminal punk outfit Guai Li, to debut their sound in Beijing. Later on, we turned Yue Space into a battle ground - pitting one band against another - including Dirty Fingers, Underdog, Mirrors, and Lonely Leary - ushering in a new age for what a live concert could be.
This time, we’re bringing four bands that that’s aren’t known to most. The common thread that ties them together: their bold psychedelic, experimental, improvisational and sprawling soundscapes that simply can’t be matched. At the end of the summer, on Friday, August 31st, three bold new sounds from some of Beijing’s most prolific musicians welcome the mysterious and captivating krautrock trio Round Image from Changchun, Jilin. This is - A Dazed Nation.
The mystery of Rough Image, the Krautrock psychedelic rock band from Changchun, is very much like most people's impression of their hometown in the northeast - an empty slate, a cypher that can’t be cracked. Their pure unadulterated sets full of Krautrock, psychedelic, noise, and improvisational mayhem - full of assured, slow burning encircling guitar-led arrangements that stimulate the ears as well as the mind - are a wonder to behold. Soothing when restrained, dynamic and kinetic when the mood strikes, they never play the same set twice, instead relying on their surroundings to harness their energy. They’re a sonic treat you don’t want to miss.
The three supporting acts are made up of an array of members from prominent bands of the underground music scene in China, and anyone who has followed Maybe Mars over the years will recognize some of these familiar faces. While Deadly Cradle Death was founded in 2011 by He Fan (the lead singer of the Birdstriking) and Liu Xinyu (formerly of Chui Wan), the newly established psychedelic supergroup Baihu, features a score of Maybe Mars characters including Sun Heting (of Gate to Otherside), and the stylishly lo-fi are still evolving Sleeping Dogs consists of Liu Xinyu, Li Zichao and A Bing (of Boiled Hippo).
Deadly Cradle Death - the cult favourite anti-club duo, that veers off into the deep end and revels in psychedelic undertones of hip-hop, drum n bass, and experimental music, haven’t performed in quite sometime. But promoters Spilt Works shook them out of their stupor this past June to open for Detroit post punk band Protomartyr. Rejuvenated and maybe even a bit shell-shocked they’re looking forward to breaking the silence once and for all this August.
Not long ago, the newly formed Baihu (aka White Tiger) caused quite a commotion in Beijing and Shanghai, attracting attention not only for their solid cast of characters, but for their intoxicating arrangements and alluring blend of sprawling psychedelic soundscapes and wistful daydreaming. The band which features Ricky Maymi, prominent member of the esteemed American psychedelic band The Brian Jonestown Massacre, on drums, is truly on its own wavelength.
Sleeping Dogs made their debut last year at fRUITYSPACE’s epic New Year's Eve bash to much praise. That didn’t stop the trio for completely revamping their sound and tossing out all their old recordings, which are said to have contained elements of jazz, math rock, and electronica. We have no idea if any of that will remain in the band’s current form but we’re eager to find out.
粗糙影像 Rough Image (Psychedelic, Noise, Experimental)
吉他：郭瑞帥
貝斯：姜灝
鼓：王玉濤
粗糙影像 Rough Image 是一支來自吉林長春的三人德式樂隊，由郭瑞帥（Gt.）、姜灝（Ba.）和王玉濤（Dr.）於2016年在長春組成。他們的音樂受 Krautrock、迷幻、噪音、實驗搖滾等音樂形式和風格的影響，在不斷地嘗試各種類型的音樂之後，他們決定以更自由隨性的方式體會音樂，不想刻意去表達什麼，只是率性而為，自然而然。你能從他們的音樂中領略到一種仿佛不屬於這個時代的即興與迷幻，不僅在關外，即便放眼全國，這樣的樂隊也屈指可數。
Changchun revels in the cavernous underbelly of instrumental rock via Rough Image. The Jilin province trio who are influenced by Krautrock, psychedelic, noise, and experimental rock bring a steady hand to their freewheeling sets – full of assured, slow burning encircling guitar-led jams that stimulate the ears as well as the noogin. Soothing when it’s needs to be, dynamic and kinetic when the mood strikes, and full of enough psychedelic allure and introspective radiance to keep the feeblest of minds entranced, they're a sonic treat you don’t want to miss.
白虎 Baihu (Indie, Rock)
從仙界又下凡一隻，出生於祥雲返照之間，降臨於秋夜觀星之時，他們勢頭猛裂，一爪下去要破開虛空，給在半夢欲醒的人一劑藥方。給動物愛好者們一座雲霧簇湧的無門關。偏愛即興，曲風無常，現在傾向於旋律化的迷幻音樂。
白虎已經用即興的方式，錄製並完成了一張完整的專輯，參與人員包括 Gate to other side 的吉他手兼主唱、鳥撞樂隊鼓手孫鶴庭，口鳥 ColdNeo 的聯合創始人程元，The Brian Jonestown Massacre 樂隊吉他手 Ricky Maymi，鳥撞樂隊的主唱何凡、貝斯手周乃仁，Ourself beside me 主唱兼吉他手、Tow 樂隊主創楊帆，等等。
The forth coming psychedelic supergroup made up of some of Maybe Mars』 most mischievous characters including Brain Jonestown Massacre’s Ricky Maymi on drums, Birdstriking/Gate to Otherside’s Sun Heting on vocals, and more familiar faces. A long and winding mixture of psychedelic soundscaping and wistful day dreaming, that offers plenty of surprises.
致命搖籃死 Deadly Cradle Death (Electronic)
由來自 Birdstriking 的何凡和 Chui Wan 的劉心宇在2011年組成，他們的音樂世界是黑暗，躁動，暴力，和神經質的。不安的氛圍和循環的樂句似乎可以說是莊重的儀式感。一切就像是在進行著一個朋克的戲劇化葬禮。兩隻動物嘗試著用發出的聲音進行溝通，並在這種特別的默契裡獲得驚喜。「人」在他們的音樂裡重新回歸到一種原始的姿態。當戲劇性轉化為旋律，危險性回歸到節奏，搖籃死將帶你進入恐怖卻又不想逃離的夢境。
湧動著一種戲劇性和危險感注入電子，直到搖籃死。
Deadly Cradle Death is an experimental duo that consists of He Fan (Carsick Cars』 bass player and guitarist of Birdstriking) and multi-instrumentalist Liu Xinyu. They chose the name for the band based on the North American TV series 「1000 Ways To Die」, according to which the 「Deadly Cradle Death」is one out of 1000 ways to die. They describe the atmosphere their music creates as one, in which 「theatricality and danger surge up within the electronic sounds until they die a deadly cradle death」. It’s pitch black anti-club music that veers off into the deep end and revels in psychedelic undertones of hip-hop, drum n bass, and experimental music.
Sleeping Dogs (Indie, Rock)
吉他：劉心宇
貝斯：阿炳
鼓：李子超
主角沈威既不是一身痞氣且性格暴虐，也不是為了賺錢加入黑道。相反，他是個內斂而複雜的人物，一個經驗豐富的臥底警察。剛從美國回到香港，幫助他的故鄉遏制盛行的犯罪勢力。但是在三合會中，沈威越陷越深，善與惡的界限在他眼裡越來越模糊不清。
The new project from Zooming Night』 regulars and the psychedelic scene’s most prolific characters including Liu Xinyu and Li Zichao as well as and Abing (Boiled Hippo) creating a jazzy infectious mixture of mathy instrumental tunes with programmed beats.
