劳动之余 何以解乏 很久以前做过一次西南巡演 当时的巡演主题名就叫劳动之余 ,那还是更早些年的一首歌 ,到今天也没能完成它,记忆深刻的是歌词的第一句 《回家的路上我有些疲倦 毕竟辛勤工作了一天 才挣回一点属于自己的时间 ,该怎么花?》现在还能不时会闪回黄昏回家的小路上的饭菜的香味,安全帽,臭水沟,小茶馆,那里离市中心也就几公里,后来的快二十年 ,城市就像一个不断膨胀的迷宫。可笑的是那时的我虽然还是会感到迷茫和孤独,但依然觉得自己有花不完的时间,而且还不上班,所以接下来的矫情和纠结就这样粗糙青涩的留在了硬盘上。 这次的专辑里最后完成的那首歌是临了倒计时才定稿了最后一版歌词,反复的斟酌也许是因为只有自己能懂和喜欢已经不重要了 ,就像做菜,如何能和别人分享才是我最想要的 ,用了二十年方才明白音乐于我的意义,如同烈日下耕作的农夫,土地已然是他唯一的救赎,而我局限于自己的世界,差一点忘记了仰望星空。

/爱是昂贵的
声音玩具到2015已经成立16年了,距离上一张《最美妙的旅行》已有12年了,如果这是一个人的话,一轮的回转多多少少也投上了宿命的影子。
回首昨日,一如少年的旅程,但终有一天也会知道选择也意味着放弃,那甜蜜的每一次,列着长长的队伍黑夜般无边无际!将这些场景转化成文字并尝试着赋予它诗意,再谱以旋律,也许人们这样就愿意相信那一切似乎不会消失的和爱流逝的速度一样快,更不会在时间中泥足深陷!
沉默,沉默又沉默,直到音乐再次响起,那些真实中无法释怀的种种再一次以美好的一面浮现在动人的一曲上,这也许就是我们能想到和过去告别最优雅的方式。

7.8 (16 个评分) Kasabian 类型: 摇滚
发布日期 2017年5月5日 出版发行: Smi Col (Sony Music)
Inspired by Leicester City’s extraordinary Premier League win and the multicultural euphoria that swept their hometown, Kasabian prolong the party. Serge Pizzorno approached the band's sixth album as a reaction to the sonic experimentation of 2014’s 48:13—its songs were written on guitar and almost all over a whirlwind six weeks of efficiency. They capture a songwriter basking in his sweetspot. “Good Fight” and “Comeback Kid” and “Bless This Acid House” are glorious anthems-in-waiting, while Pizzorno’s own favourite track—the hypnotic, groove-heavy “Are You Looking for Action?”—even manages the remarkable trick of clocking in at over eight minutes and feeling immediate.

"It felt like we were in a movie that had a totally implausible ending..."
Slowdive's second act as a live blockbuster has already been rapturously received around the world. Highlights thus far include a festival-conquering, sea-of-devotees Primavera Sound performance, of which Pitchfork noted: "The beauty of their crystalline sound is almost hard to believe, every note in its perfect place."
"It was just nice to realise that there was a decent amount of interest in it," says principal songwriter Neil Halstead. The UK shoegaze pioneers have now channelled such seemingly impossible belief into a fourth studio opus which belies his characteristic modesty. Self-titled with quiet confidence, Slowdive's stargazing alchemy is set to further entrance the faithful while beguiling a legion of fresh ears.
Deftly swerving what co-vocalist/guitarist Rachel Goswell terms "a trip down memory lane", these eight new tracks are simultaneously expansive and the sonic pathfinders' most direct material to date. Birthed at the band's talismanic Oxfordshire haunt The Courtyard - "It felt like home," enthuses guitarist Christian Savill - their diamantine melodies were mixed to a suitably hypnotic sheen at Los Angeles' famed Sunset Sound facility by Chris Coady (perhaps best known for his work with Beach House, one of countless contemporary acts to have followed in Slowdive's wake).
"It's poppier than I thought it was going to be," notes Halstead, who was the primary architect of 1995's previous full-length transmission Pygmalion. This time out the group dynamic was all-important. "When you're in a band and you do three records, there's a continuous flow and a development. For us, that flow re-started with us playing live again and that has continued into the record."
Drummer and loop conductor Simon Scott enhanced the likes of 'Slomo' and 'Falling Ashes' with abstract textures conjured via his laptop's signal processing software. A fecund period of experimentation with "40-minute iPhone jams" allowed the unit to then amplify the core of their chemistry. "Neil is such a gifted songwriter, so the songs won. He has these sparks of melodies, like 'Sugar For The Pill' and 'Star Roving', which are really special. But the new record still has a toe in that Pygmalion sound. In the future, things could get very interesting indeed."
This open-channel approach to creativity is reflected by Slowdive's impressively wide field of influence, from indie-rock avatars to ambient voyagers - see the tribute album of cover versions released by Berlin electronic label Morr Music. As befits such evocative visionaries, you can also hear Slowdive through the silver screen: New Queer Cinema trailblazer Gregg Araki has featured them on the soundtracks to no less than four of his films.
"When I moved to America in 2008 I was working in an organic grocery store," recalls Christian. "Kids started coming in and asking if it was true I had played in Slowdive. That's when I started thinking, 'OK, this is weird!'"
Neil Halstead: "We were always ambitious. Not in terms of trying to sell records, but in terms of making interesting records. Maybe, if you try and make interesting records, they're still interesting in a few years time. I don't know where we'd have gone if we had carried straight on. Now we've picked up a different momentum. It's intriguing to see where it goes next."
The world has finally caught up with Slowdive. This movie could run and run...
Singing Saw 豆瓣
Kevin Morby
发布日期 2016年4月15日 出版发行: Dead Oceans
Singing Saw is a record written simply and realized orchestrally. In it, Kevin Morby faces the reality that true beauty - deep and earned - demands a whole-world balance that includes our darker sides. It is a record of duality, one that marks another stage of growth for this young, gifted songwriter with a kind face and a complicated mind. Morby opens Singing Saw with "Cut Me Down", a song of tears, debts and a prescient vision of being reduced to nothing. "I Have Been to the Mountain", "Destroyer" and "Black Flowers" continue to explore beauty and freedom, seizing upon the rot that seeps into even the supposedly safest of realms; peace, family and romantic love. By the end of the record on "Water", Morby is literally begging to be put out once and for all, like a fire that might burn all the visions away. Travels beyond his mountain walks, near his Mount Washington home in Los Angeles, inform songs like "Dorothy", which recounts a trip to Portugal, witnessing a fishing ritual and luxuriating in the aura of a bar light-tinged reunion with old friends. The touching innocence of "Ferris Wheel" stands alone in stark simplicity amidst the lush sonic textures of the album. Here, the album is balanced by Morby's signature sweetness and joie de vivre. In the end, Morby fulfills the promise many heard on his first two albums, bringing his most realized effort of songwriting and lyricism to fruition. The songs of Singing Saw reflect the clarity that comes from welcoming change and embracing duality, and the distillation of those elements into an entirely new vision.

少年不識愁滋味,為賦新詞強說愁。好似灑脫卻充滿框架,好似追求、期盼什麼卻只是不斷印證自己的可笑一般。其實就是醜奴兒自己心裡的對話與拉扯,希望能藉由歌詞的意境,讓悲傷的人看見自己的模樣,在片刻抒發後,認清自我。總體而言,文字創作的方面,我們希望以文字作為一面鏡子反面對照自我,也許表面較為負面但期盼人們依舊能意識到作為一個「人」不該遺忘的本質。
