Upcoming: LBM x DDC 5 Year Anniversary (2019.07.27)

Live Beijing Music helps DDC celebrate their 5th Year Anniversary with a sizzling riotous showcase featuring some of the scene’s most exciting new bands, including two very special guests from Shanghai and Shenzhen. We’re honored to welcome math rock indie outfit Shanghai Qiutian and art punk scrappers Thin City – two bands who exploded onto the scene this year with wonderfully realized debuts on Wild Records (out of Wuhan) and BoringProductions (out of Shenzhen). Joining them will be two new Beijing contenders to be reckoned with – instrumental rockers Stranding Imbrium and red hot garage punk ruffians Pizza Face. Between the sweltering punk rock mosh-pits, the spine-tingling melodies and the graceful post-rock landscapes is where we’ll find solace tonight. 

这些北京的现场乐队将一起在DDC庆祝他们的五周年纪念日。以一个热闹的演出,包括一些现场最令人兴奋的新乐队,包括来自上海和深圳的两个非常特别的客人。我们很荣幸地欢迎摇滚独立乐队: 上海秋天(Shanghai Qiutian)和艺术朋克拾荒者: Thin City。这两个乐队今年在Wild Records(来自武汉)和BoringProductions(来自深圳)的首次登台演出中获得了巨大的成功。一起加入他们的是两支北京竞争者,不可忽视的,器乐摇滚: 月海搁浅和红色的车库朋克暴徒披萨脸。在闷热的朋克摇滚mosh-pits,刺痛脊柱的旋律和优雅的后摇滚风景之间,我们将在今晚找到慰藉。

Finding the atmospheric and textual beauty within the confines of math and post-rock, Shanghai Qiutian offers a fresh take of the genres that have flooded the earholes of Chinese audiences for decades. Founded in late 2018 by Basque County raised Eñaut Martí Zinkunegi and Swiss Florian Rudin in the first-tier city, the duo works their magic on their exquisite debut “New Era, Shared Future“, out now on Wild Records.

While shades of high-wire emo linger, there’s a low-key seductiveness found in the looping chords and intricate interplay found within the production. The band has expanded to five members in the past year and have already been making a splash festivals like MIDI and at livehouses across China. 

A twangy energetic mix of guitar rock and art punk that’ll leave a big ol’ smile on your face, Thin City are simply put, a blast. Infectiously catchy, with a heavy dose of C86-era power pop that’ll have you humming their tunes long after, they just released their debut LP off of Shenzhen’s Boring Productions earlier this year and are following it up this month with a full-length LP – and it’s pure bliss.

Rock and roll in its purest form, a sun-soaked party from start to finish – as the band dive into everything from working girls to doomed beach trips, riding on the bubbly vocals of Catherine and Graham. There’s an anarchist spirit to the band’s sound – one that values humor, wonder, imagination and above all else — fun. 

Female-led garage punk quartet Pizza Face are a Molotov cocktail of attitude and ramshackle charm that’ll have you pogoing in delight. It’s fast, it’s nasty and delicious or all the wrong reasons, the band lulls audiences into a false of security before showing their true faces, twisting the foundations of rock and roll on itself by delivering highly flammable tunes that’ll spread like wildfire the moment they hit the floor. 

Rounding out the evening are Stranding Imbrium, the new instrumental rockers with a preference for crafting sublime soundscapes full of math rock acuteness, shoegaze purr, and post-rock heft. Since forming in late 2018, they’ve been earning solid word of mouth from many in the post-rock scene for the way they deftly keep your earworms trekking through valleys of eccentric guitar chords and grand mountainous melodies that’ll leave you wanting more. Expect to be hearing a lot more from these cats come the end of the year.

Shanghai Qiutian 上海秋天 (math rock/emo)

Shanghai Qiutian由来自巴斯克的Enaut以及瑞士的Florian为发起人,建立于上海,并在武汉Vox录制首张专辑《新时代,共享未来》——专辑名取自于进博会标语,并于野生唱片发行。

Shanghai Qiutian是一支在成立伊始,便引起乐迷间的讨论的乐队,并在新专辑的发行后,迅速和大象体操、Chinese Football占据数学摇滚新专辑榜单;

和同厂牌招牌Chinese Football合作歌曲《又是一天》;

遵循着规则却又打破规则的Math Rock风格,用奇数拍为武器营救那些渴望自由的人;

人声以及旋律优美的创作前提,让乐曲没有让人感受到数学摇滚的曲高和寡;

他们不愿意被标签老外乐队,所以在上海找到KipWinnieSolo三位中国乐手他们不愿意使用英文单词,从而把Qiutian取代Autumn作为乐队名,并吟唱中文歌词

Finding the atmospheric and textual beauty within the confines of math and post-rock, Shanghai Qiutian offers a fresh take of the genres that have flooded the earholes of Chinese audiences for decades. Founded in late 2018 by Basque County raised Eñaut Martí Zinkunegi and Swiss Florian Rudin in the first-tier city, the duo work their magic on their exquisite debut “New Era, Shared Future“, out now on Wild Records.

Thin City (indie/art punk)

搭着 “来了,就是深圳人” 的顺风车,成型为一支调皮、日常、有趣的原生魂——艺术朋克乐队,用艺术拼贴的玩法创造摇滚,将乐队中东、西方文化里声音和身份的冲突结合,成为本地的一个星球共和国,唱响拼贴中光怪陆离的听觉艺术。

英式节奏与和谐的男、女合声交织在一起,乐风深受朋克、独立摇滚影响,如The FallLife Without BuildingsHedgehogPixies

乐队成员对普通的事物都充满兴趣,将其重组成奇妙的世界,加上隐晦怪异、片断式的歌词,使其在众多乐队中独树一帜。

他们和深圳独立厂牌无聊制造Boring Productions合作,发行了专辑《Rock City Baishizhou》和今年的春天的《Watermelon EP》。今年531号,乐队将在无聊制造发行一张六首歌的新EPOOK》,之后还有会新专辑的发行计划。

对《Watermelon EP》的赞誉

乐队融合了活力的吉他摇滚和艺术朋克,朗朗上口的乐曲中注入了C-86时期的强力流行,他们的音乐有一种无政府主义精神——重视幽默,想象力和乐趣。 

–LiveBeijingMusic

这首具有传染性的普通话独立乐曲,结合了对曼彻斯特后朋克乐队The Fall和北京独立流行乐队刺猬Hedgehog的钦佩。

– Radii China

伴随着悠闲的冲浪吉他,这首俏皮的朋克双语乐曲以深圳人所熟知的地点为灵感

– That’s PRD

Stranding Imbrium 月海搁浅 (post rock/math rock)

一个虚构的无头无尾的故事,没有洋流与飓风,没有争论不休,在没有空气介质的地方,自然也不会留下任何残响。组建于没有故事的公元8102年末,是一个每天都有大事发生,却又看起来没什么区别的残酷时代。这些泡在MathPost-rockShoegaze中游离不定,走投无路,却又试图挣脱些什么的生物体,妄图在真空的迷途中点火,在清醒与醉梦之间找到所谓的平衡。

Stranding Imbrium, the new instrumental rockers with a preference for crafting sublime soundscapes full of math rock acuteness, shoegaze purr, and post rock heft. Since forming in late 2018, they’ve been earning solid word of mouth from many in the post rock scene for the way they deftly keep your earworms trekking through valleys of eccentric guitar chords and grand mountainous melodies that’ll leave you wanting more.

PizzaFace 披萨脸 (garage/punk)

乐队成立于20184月,名字源于忍者神龟中的反派,想要吃掉人类的PizzaFace,快速、恶心又美味。所以乐队的风格也是融合了朋克、车库和叙述者样的吉他riff。创作出发角度也大都从人类之外开启,作品有《哈雷兔子》、《燕子》、《发情的小公鸡》、《小猪哭了》等。而现场远不是歌名听起来的可爱感,女主唱释放的巨大爆发力、三位乐手精准又狂暴的表现和VJ的映衬让暴力美学在舞台上最近距离的为观众呈现

现在请收起小酒瓶,将手机调整到飞行模式,照顾好自己的男朋友,我们的演出马上就要开始了。

The band was founded in April 2018. The name comes from the villa who wants to feast on human flesh in the Teenage Mutant Turtles. It is fast, looks nasty and it’s delicious. 

So the band style is a mix of punk, garage, and narrator-like guitar riff. The music creation are mostly composed in an animatic way. The works include ‘Harley Rabbit’, ‘Swallow’, ‘Little Cock’, ‘Piggy Cried’ and so on. The scene is far from the cute feeling of the songs names. The massive explosive power released by the female lead singer, the precise and violent performance of the other three musicians, and the VJs silhouette throw the abrasive aesthetics right in the faces of audiences.  Now please put away your alcohol bottle, put your phone into flight mode, take care of your boyfriend, for our performance is about to begin.
