Oh it wouldn’t be truthful If I don’t come after the call Folding while being untold Sitting while not being still Oh it wouldn’t be! Truthful The words fade without a sign Today is the day I grow Decay and reborn to so Be truthful The words fade without a sign Today is the day I grow Decay and reborn to so Oh it wouldn’t be truthful The words lit And the song will spill The throat caters wish for A spoonful of heart’s milk Oh it wouldn’t be truthful If I would swallow it right away The taste will reconcile The worst in everyone of us Oh it wouldn’t be truthful If I don’t come after the call Folding while being untold Sitting while not being still Oh it wouldn’t be! 重疊(翻譯): 這不會是真情 如果不在你呼叫後來到身邊的話 就會像沒有告知的折疊關閉 以及無法平靜的就此入座 這不是真情 真誠兩字常無聲息地淡去 今天是一個成長的日子 又是褪去和新生的交頭接耳 這不是真情 就像言語間的縫隙被點燃 歌曲飛濺到自己的框架外 而聲喉只是剛剛好 尋求一口心的乳汁 這不是真情 如果我早早就吞下 來不及品嘗它的每一滴 而每一滴都有可能原諒我們最不堪的自己的話 這都不是真情

之所以他們會為他哭泣 是因為他們也感受到他的疼痛 現在,那個小方塊在消失,人們也不再與以前一樣感受彼此 沒事沒事 重疊之後你會看到些許真摯 沒錯沒錯 與教堂無關 與共情有事 第二滴眼淚是為了解放 原來還是有血有肉的那顆心臟 你看不見還是說你選擇不看見 那仰望星空的流浪漢和不識一字的浪漫 沒事沒事 重疊之後你會看到些許真摯 沒錯沒錯 與教堂無關 與共情有事 第三滴眼淚是為了歌唱 破碎的雙腿在破碎的小路上 在最黑暗的時候總會有一道光 透過別人的耳背讓他不遺忘 沒事沒事 重疊之後你會看到些許真摯 沒錯沒錯 與教堂無關 與共情有事 Ritualware (translation) : They cried for him because they felt the pain in him now, the box is disappearing, people can't feel as the way they did before It a-okay you will see some sincerity when overlapping it a-alright Non-related to the church it is tied to compassion The second tear drop is for the freedom to feel the heart still built with flesh You can't see it or you chose not to? The homeless looking up the sky, in romance not knowing any words It a-okay you will see some sincerity when overlapping it a-alright Non-related to the church it is tied to compassion The third drop of tear is for the singing for those who are broken down on this unpaved road There is a light most shinning at the darkest times Through the back of other ears will you hear the most forgetables It a-okay you will see some sincerity when overlapping it a-alright Non-related to the church it is tied to compassion

看你心 它已經 早就蒙蔽 在你腦裏 算計 算到幾夕 算計 算到麻痹 也算不到期 看你心 它已經— 矮小與偉大 只不過 一波來去 愛的呼吸 Good Fool (translation): Look at your heart It is already Drenched Inside of your brain Calculating Until when? Calculating Till numbing And until never Look at your heart It is already — The lowest and the greatest Are all but Waves come and go Through a breath of love

about

▼WV085: otay:onii - 夢​之​駭​客 Dream Hacker

夢之駭客 Dream Hacker is an astral projection journey in the overlapping space where reality collides with dreams, or a black mass of shattered truths fluttering and swirling high above the ground. Her noise/improv-based approach to songwriting has, for now, been altered to a more structured and infectious ballad-oriented narrative, constantly enhanced by her stark vocal experimentation. As this dream odyssey winds on, she effortlessly switches between angelic healing tones and dreadful ritual howls, using her ample vocal textures to dictate the up and downs, cruelness and dreaminess in the lush tribal-percussion-led electronic orchestration.





"On 夢之駭客 Dream Hacker, she offers a more optimistic outlook, using oddball pop melodies, distorted breakbeats, and swirling drones to transform her anxieties into a renewed sense of self. ...Shi’s voice floats alongside ’80s stadium-rock drums, tabla, and a synth progression from an abandoned carousel ride. Singing of growth and decay, she teases out a tension between light and dark that lurks throughout the record, just one of many axes along which Shi situates her sound and themes."

“I was sleeping in my apartment in Shanghai, saw a kid throwing one rock onto another in a dream, and these two rocks overlapped a rectangular shape in the middle, and suddenly the rectangle part shredded a stream of piercing light, then I saw myself laying on bed, floating, on my ears or in the air was this whisper of a secret drifted like wings – ‘What connects you and me is the overlapping part.’”

- Interview by Sidney Franklyn on Threads Radio

Otay:onii (Lane Shi Otayonii) was born in Haining, China, and has recently been a resident of New York and Shanghai. She is also the vocalist of the punk spit heavy shoegaze band Elizabeth Colour Wheel (US). Her voice is frequently compared to classics such as Janis Joplin, Björk, Hope Sandoval (Mazzy Star), and Beth Gibbons (Portishead). Her own talent distinguishes itself from these greats as her own voice delivers a sound that ranges from ghostly ethereal to brutally powerful to chillingly dreamy.

Otay:onii graduated from Berklee College of music in 2016, honored twice with “Laurie Anderson Women in Technology” awards. She has also received many other honors and accolades including a bronze prize for “Best Female Vocalist” from Global Music Awards and “Best Sound” from the Audiovisual Arts Industrial Incubator Awards. She was rebellious while in school, frequently testing the limits of the learning environment and continually questioning the institution’s business model. She said she would “drop out of school if as a foreigner I can stay there without a visa”. Soon after she got the “alien of extraordinary ability” artist visa. She considers the opportunity of getting to know her bandmates and life time friends as the biggest achievement received at school.
