歲​寒​三​友

▼WV069: 李劍鴻 Li Jianhong & 文智湧 Wen Zhiyong & 鄧博宇 Deng Boyu - 歲寒三友 Les Trois Amis de l'hiver One year ago, in the midst of the epidemic and the lockdown in Beijing, we had the chance to record this unforgettable night. Three musicians who have never stopped exploring their respective fields, made this improvised music encounter and go to a new horizon with us, at the now-closed 24D venue in the winter of 2021. "Les Trois Amis de l'hiver (Three Friends of Winter)" refers to the three species of plants: pine, bamboo, and plum, which are named after their ability to remain vigorous during the winter months. It is also a symbol of noble character in traditional Chinese culture. In this live collaboration, the three musicians presented their musical "skills" as well as their tacit understanding. Subtle rhythms and sound effects, undulating atmospheres and emotions were interspersed throughout the performance. With vitality and imagination flowing incessantly, from a tunnel into another, into the light of the ruins. In between the different instruments and the balanced/unbalanced dynamics, in addition to the "Less is More" part, there is a rich interplay of sound. The eastern aura emerges just right, but not overwhelming. Beyond these "deft" passages, there is a deep and vast gaze, from a monolith on black earth, floating and slowly breaking into pieces after millions of years of stillness, merging into the Milky Way. The recording is mixed by Deng Boyu and carefully mastered by Thomas Stadnicki in Belgium. We have chosen this double CD format instead of vinyl, to preserve and capture the full length of the performance. In a night of free improvisation, noise, and psychedelic music, the illusion and the reality, the past and the future meet here. 一年前，在疫情和封控的夾縫之中，我們有幸記錄下這個難忘的夜晚。三位在各自領域都沒有停止探索的音樂人，在2021年11月的北京，在現已關閉的24D現場，實現了這一次即興音樂的碰撞，給我們打開了一扇更寬闊的門。 「歲寒三友」，指松、竹、梅三種植物。因這三種植物在寒冬時節仍可保持頑強的生命力而得名，也是中國傳統文化中高尚人格的象徵。三位音樂人在這次現場合作裡，展現了他們的各自深厚的音樂功力和默契。微妙的節奏和音效、起伏的氛圍與感情，穿插在整場演出當中，生命力和想像力在不停的流淌，從一條隧道鑽如另一條隧道，進入廢墟的光芒之中。 在不同樂器的配合和平衡又不平衡的動態之間，除了「少即是多」的留白和想像，同時也有着豐富的聲響交織。若隱若現的東方氣息，恰到好處，但也不會讓人感到疲憊。在這些「靈巧」的段落之外，更有深邃廣闊的凝視，黑色大地上的一塊巨石，靜止數万年後，漂浮又緩緩分裂成碎片，匯入星河。 這份錄音經過鄧博宇的混音和比利時母帶師Thomas Stadnicki的打磨，終於正式出版。這次我們放棄了黑膠格式，而選擇出版這份雙CD，是為了能夠保留曲目的長度，完整記錄這次演出的全貌。 在自由即興、噪音、迷幻音樂和虛實幻象之中，遠古和未來，交匯在這一夜。 ▼ It’s been too long since I’ve been the comforting throes of noise guitar demigod Li Jianhong - a cosmic journey each and every time. But to have drummer Deng Boyu and trumpeter/sound artist Wen Zhiyong on hand was the (double) cherry on top. A beautiful improvisational symphony of musical dissonance - as high-pitched guitar shockwaves clashed and merged with droning trumpet and sax (Wen Zhiyong utilized what I believed to be a digital vape-sized sax) and pummeling yet graceful free jazz drums. Describing it is pretty useless but I was nevertheless enraptured for the entirety of the almost hour-long performance. 已經太久沒有在噪音吉他之神李劍鴻的演奏中得到安慰了——每次演出都是一次宇宙之旅。但是有鼓手鄧博宇和小號手/聲音藝術家文智湧的加入，是更加的雙重驚喜。一首美妙的不和諧音符的即興交響樂——高音吉他衝擊波與嗡嗡作響的小號和薩克斯（我猜是電子煙大小的數碼薩克斯）發生碰撞並融合在一起，加上猛烈且優雅的自由爵士鼓點。無法用語言描述，但我仍然為這次完整的現場表演而欣喜若狂。 - liveCNmusic 「歲寒三友」在臨近尾聲時，發生過神奇而極富戲劇性的一幕。鄧博宇的一支鼓棒突然打飛到了李劍鴻的腳下，老李條件反射一樣拾起鼓棒，然後拉鋸著琴弦。文智湧則瞬間掏出Ipad，讓光怪陸離的電子蝌蚪從Ipad通道中傾巢而出。這場演出雖已過去足足一年有余。但如此瞬間卻是即興時「刀光劍影」的濃縮、又與沈靜下來的曲徑通幽形成動靜之反差。蒼松、勁竹、寒梅、聲川、音海、畫卷...... 在那一晚，爆裂與冷峻始終相互制約，卻又從容共生激蕩。「三位一體」的耀眼終章，在最後一個音符接近消散時，似乎畫上句號卻又開啟了新的可能。 - 吳凡夫 ▼ Li Jianhong He has been an active noise/improvisation musician in China since the late 1990s.
