Following the release of the year's first EP "Mind Uploading...0.1: Awakening" that was well received by music fans at the end of August, Shang Wenjie, who has a strong creative desire, continued her efforts and handed over her second EP "Mind Uploading...0.1: Awakening" just one month later. Mind Uploading Mind uploading...0.2: Rainbow Wasteland".
This is an advanced experiment with absurdism and strange sounds. It is Shang Wenjie's fearless original intention to release the most primitive power of music.
Electronic music artist
, who plays with both commercial and niche electronic music, created the hit electronic music single "Follow Your Heart" in EP 0.1. Shang Wenjie, who is good at freely shuttle between mainstream and niche, boldly experimented deeply. inner spiritual expression. The three songs in EP0.2 come from three completely different experimental directions, independent but natural. Shang Wenjie has a lot of fun "playing" in music. She holds the pioneering spirit of the unknown and opens up new musical territories step by step.
"Impermanence" interprets traditional Eastern philosophy in the form of electronic music. It may seem absurd, but it is also full of experimental flavor of behaviorism. "Desire" is derived from the exaggerated expression form of the British and American satirical comic Caricature, and uses experimental techniques to express the topic of "desire". "Army of Shadow" is a retro electronic music song that is relatively easy for the public to accept. Shang Wenjie once again collaborated with Nai Wan, a cutting-edge female musician she collaborated with on EP 0.1, to write lyrics for this song.
The greatest ambition of this advanced experiment is that Shang Wenjie "played" with many untouched parts of electronic music, and even combined different elements to perfection.
Shang Wenjie added Chinese philosophical elements to the experimental electronic music "Impermanence". "Gold, wood, water, fire and earth" were activated to become the main creative axis of "Impermanence". From the underlying logic, this song is a mashup of Chinese and foreign electronic music. , rather than a superficial fusion. Shang Wenjie is a person who lives in the spiritual world. This song "Impermanence" is the result of her thinking and precipitation about electronic music at this stage.
Thirteen years of steady rainbow of electronic music singing
Over the past thirteen years, Shang Wenjie has used an indomitable attitude to insist on original electronic music singing and promote the influence of electronic music in the Chinese music scene. This is a road rarely traveled. She tries to use the power of music itself to make the listener feel the restrained expression of the work.
The word "rainbow" in "Mind Uploading...0.2: Honghuang" means "bridge". Shang Wenjie and her works have become a bridge between experimental music and the audience. "Rainbow Wilderness" embodies a complex, contradictory, and grand consciousness. From the AI female warrior awakening in the future dimension in EP 0.1, to the advent of the chaotic rainbow world in EP 0.2, the hexagonal electronic music universe created by Shang Wenjie in her works has gradually taken shape.
