Der Ohlsen "[...] if the sheer prospect of one guy playing two twenty-two minute improvisations of seemingly erratic experimental Noise / Drone / Feeback pieces on his guitar, occasionally accompanied by barks, shouts and traditionally inspired Chinese singing, throws you off... then you should probably skip this [...]"

▼WV088: Li Jianhong 李劍鴻 - Soul Solitary 魂靈獨居者

中國自由音域秘所霧宇瓊樓
六弦詭譎噪音回授駕雨騰雲

Li Jianhong has been an important figure in the Chinese experimental music scene since the late 90’s, and he is always attached to his hometown, Fenghua, in Zhejiang province, China. The woods, the humidity, the rivulet, and the abandoned temples are where his soul wanders. “Soul Solitary” is the latest approach in the universe of his free improv/noise guitar feedback works, featuring two captures of live recordings from 2018–2019 in France and China. In a more aggressive and dynamic arrangement, let’s walk into this gloomy and hidden land of the soul, covered in endless rain and clouds.

This album is also the first vinyl release since his 2009 album “Lovers With Cloisonné Bracelet," the same period as his P.S.F. album “Classic of the Mountains and Seas.”

The album is a collaboration of Ramble Records (AU), WV Sorcerer Productions (FR/CN), and Echodelick Records (US), and features the magnificent artwork of Du Kun.

自上世紀90年代末以來，李劍鴻一直是中國實驗音樂界的重要人物，而他的故鄉奉化，也一直是他的作品中重要的組成部分。遊蕩在樹林、濕氣、小溪和廢棄的廟宇之中，《魂靈獨居者》是李劍鴻從自由即興和噪音吉他回授的世界中帶來的詭譎珍寶，收錄了兩份2018-2019年在法國和中國的現場錄音，有着更具侵略性和大動態的編排。讓我們一起走進這片幽暗的魂靈隱秘之地，駕雨騰雲。

李劍鴻曾在2009年於日本P.S.F.廠牌發行專輯《山海経》，受到來自全球樂迷的一致好評。同年於美國廠牌Tipped Bowler Tapes發行《戴景泰藍手鐲的戀人》黑膠，而《魂靈獨居者》則是他十五年來的首份全長黑膠出品。

這張專輯由 Ramble Records（澳大利亞）、WV Sorcerer Productions（法國/中國）和 Echodelick Records（美國）聯合出品，封面油畫來自中國藝術家杜昆。

I love live recordings, even though they may not be perfect in quality and there are always some mistakes and regrets. But in them I find there are some hidden emotions that don't come out easily in everyday life – I'm not a person who is good at expressing my feelings. But they can be revealed in my live performances, especially in my solo recordings.

These deeply hidden things come out in the live environment and performances, sometimes like a glow, sometimes rushing out one after another. Fuzzy, uncatchable, yet sensitive. Sometimes they are honest and open in the scene; sometimes they are overcautious and hesitating, just like me in my everyday life. But they are still very unfamiliar to me, with some strange attractions. They seem to have a will of their own in the scene, through layers and layers of fragmented, organized or unorganized sounds, forming at a certain moment a light and dark object – another "I" that is different from the one in everyday life. And this "I" is a soul solitary.

- Li Jianhong

「我喜歡現場錄音，盡管它們品質不夠完美，常有一些錯誤和遺憾。但我發現，有一些隱藏的情感在日常生活中是不會輕易表達出來的——我不是一個善於表達的人。而在現場，它們會出現，演奏solo的時候更容易出現。這些深藏的東西在現場的環境和演奏中，有時暗光一現，有時前仆後繼。模糊，不可捕捉，卻敏感。有時它們在現場坦誠相見，有時又瞻前顧後——像極了日常生活的我。但還是陌生，帶著奇特的吸引力。在現場，這些東西似乎擁有自己的意志一樣，通過層層疊疊的、支離破碎的、有序或無序的聲音，在某一刻形成一個忽明忽暗的物體——區別於日常生活中的另一個“我”。而這個“我”就是一個魂靈獨居者。」

- 李劍鴻

Oh how I long for this album in vinyl format! Such smoothness. Such warmth. Such execution. This music begs to be taken along and woven into memories. Everyone I’ve shared this album with has loved it. The music speaks far and wide. Shouting out to a fellow follower, Brian Lehmann, for his excellent taste in music. If not for him, I likely would have never stumbled upon this absolute gem! Plinchmo Larduktin
