Bass: Dan Gunn

Alien Radio is a three-piece (UK, Canada and Greece). They are a new band playing original rock songs. It's classic rock. It's modern prog. It's heavy. It's mellow. It's trippy. It's laid-back. It's in your face. It's quiet. It's loud. It's slow. It's fast. There's a mixture of classic (Sabbath, Rush, Floyd, Marillion) and modern progressive (Muse, Radiohead).

They're in the process of writing and recording our first tracks; they will be with you soon. These are just simple demos we have made for practice purposes. The quality isn't great, but you get an idea of their sound.

Bands:

MACONDØ (Post-rock, Math-rock)

Nocturnes (Indie Electronic)

The Glamour Manifesto (Industrial Electro Rock)

MACONDØ

Macondo make some of the most interesting and exciting music coming out of Beijing today: instrumental rock with elements of math-core, infused with vibes drawn from 70s psychedelic music, adding the production and sound of today's electronic music. Their unique music shifts from sounds that are ambient and heavy, spacious and dense to atmospheric but rhythmically driven. Bombastic drumming, layered with lush floating guitar textures and earth-shaking energetic bass attack, and otherworldly synthesiser sounds.

Formed in 2014, the band quickly made a splash on the Beijing music scene, their live shows left audiences open-mouthed, describing it as 'Volcano Rock'.

Nocturnes

Nocturnes are an Indie-Electronic band based in Beijing, China. They are: Weidu- vocals/lyrics David - guitar/composition/production. The band was officially formed in late 2015 and in March 2016 they independently released their first EP album, A World Full of Adults, which included 5 songs. A string of gigs in the Beijing area followed, culminating in their support of American Indie Rock band Surfer Blood at Yugong Yishan. Soon after, in October 2016, they signed to Chinese record label Cao Tai Music, and will release their new EP, Dust into Glory, at the beginning of 2017.

Their sound has been described as a mix of "sensual overtones and airy elegant grace", where a sultry electronic rhythm section meshes with Indie Rock touches and atmospheric vocals. Combined with top-notch production values and unique vocals, Nocturnes' music is escapism, sounds which draw you deeply within their world. Their music has been described as “sultry”, “atmospheric” and “emotional”, and sits somewhere between the intensity of Foals, the electronic elements of Bonobo and the pop sensibilities of Coldplay. They are inspired by the night, existence and illusion, a post-90s worldview, growing up in a disaffected generation, secrets and desires, love and ego, silence and thrill, memory and hatred, the future and past. What you hear is what you get.

The Glamour Manifesto

The Glamour Manifesto is an Italian electronic-rock band from Jesolo, Venice formed in 2006. The band consists of Armen Simonpour (lead vocals, guitar) and Mattia Cecchetto (drums, percussion, programs). In 2016 they teamed up with Danish music producer, Jonas 'Jelly' Soendberg (keys, backing)

Releasing the first single "Hide and Eat" it became an immediate success and immensely popular on online forums and music sites. They signed with UK based label "Ear Candy Music" in 2008 and Japanese label "IN N OUT Records" in 2009.

Glamour Manifesto released their first self titled debut album "The Glamour Manifesto" in 2009.

萨黛 (Saadet Türköz) 和马木尔，5月27日下午三点将在DDC黄昏黎明俱乐部相会，这是两位哈萨克族著名音乐家的巅峰对话。

Saadet Türköz

MY BOY, MY HORSE, MY DOG

The Kazakh singer, improviser, performing artist, based in Switzerland saadet türköz plays for years under the title "songdreaming", a kind of "folklore imaginaire".

瑞士籍的哈萨克族音乐家，欧洲前卫乐坛最优秀的即兴女声之一，同时又是一位深深扎根于哈萨克传统文化的歌手。萨黛在瑞士著名的Intakt厂牌出版唱片，同时，她与众多欧美著名音乐家如Elliott Sharp、Fred Frith、Peter Kowald, Gianni Gebbia、,Ikue Mori、Okkyung Lee、Eyvind Kang、Carl Stone、Larry Ochs、徐凤霞，以及Paed Conca的“炸裂五重奏”等等都有过合作演出或唱片。

While in free improvisation türköz repeatedly draws on her rich fund of archaic songs from the region from which she originates, the spirit inherent in this music gives the abstract the power of the archaic and the archaic the complexity of the contemporary. a kind of "simulacres" are created: dream images in which times, motifs and myths collide instead of following one another in epochs. „Songdreaming“ a deep and ecstatic musical celebration!

Türköz反复汲取了自己创作的丰富的古老歌曲资源，这种音乐固有的精神赋予了抽象的古老力量和复杂的当代艺术。创造出一种“模拟”梦幻图像中的时代，图案和神话相互冲突，而不是在时代中相互追随。 “Songdreaming”一场深刻而疯狂的音乐庆典吧！

马木尔 (Mamer)

一位从传统到前卫包罗万象的音乐家，作为冬不拉大师和哈萨克民谣的集大成者，他2002年创立了传奇乐队IZ (脚印), 随后逐渐开拓自己广阔的现代音乐疆域，近些年又先后成立了响马 (Bande)、细菌 (Mekrop)、锈 (TAT)、51区( 51-Rayon）、罪人 (Kunakar) 乐队，并推出了各种类型的个人唱片。

这是萨黛和马木尔的第二次合作。2005年，萨黛曾经访问北京和新疆，参与了“流浪的哈萨克人”音乐会，在798的哈特艺术空间，她和马木尔领导的IZ有过一场精彩和合作，这场演出，当时在场的人至今仍津津乐道。这一年萨黛还录制了专辑《乌鲁木齐》，并于2006年在Intakt厂牌出版，在这张专辑中萨黛与六位哈萨克族音乐家合作，其中也包括马木尔，专辑的最后一首歌《Kunan》就是马木尔弹的冬不拉。

此次，应瑞士文化基金会之邀，萨黛重访中国，举办名为“Songdreaming”的中国巡演，在上海她与照骏园、安尼沃尔等乐手合作两场演出，在北京则是和她的老朋友马木尔。在5月27日这场演出之前，萨黛和马木尔将一起录制一张录音室唱片并将由Modern Sky 出版。这场演出，将是两人录音合作成果的展示和延伸。

萨黛与马木尔有着相似的哈萨克传统文化背景，然而又勇于突破传统，站在现代音乐的高度去重塑个人与世界的联结。萨黛与另一位中国乐迷熟悉的女歌手珊寇（Sainkho Namtchylak）具有相似的背景和创作表演方式，既歌唱民歌，又以即兴极限人声震撼世人。萨黛20岁在瑞士接触到当代前卫音乐，她说：“一个崭新的、令人兴奋的音乐世界：自由爵士乐、即兴演奏，以及人们对待实验音乐时令人耳目一新的开放程度，这与我最初的不带偏见地对待音乐传统的态度是相符合的。”传统与前卫对她来说并不矛盾，“我试图用音乐去重塑人们的记忆。我寻求通过超越文化界限的声音和音乐来唤起画面和气氛。记忆是无处不在并且不可改变的，每一次都是这样。尽管如此，对记忆的表达是不同的：个人的感知最终会发展成为对文化生活的普遍印象。”

13年来，马木尔和萨黛的音乐创作都有了巨变，尤其马木尔、已经构建了一个万花筒式的令人晕眩的音乐世界。他俩的第二次合作，充满了未知的诱惑和魅力。对萨黛和马木尔来说，NOMAD, 游牧者，已经远远不只意味着传统的游牧民族及其文化，而是当代精神领域的、德勒兹 (Gilles Deleuze) 意义上的"游牧"——自由驰骋于思想的高原，冲击固有的符号，解放我们的感官和思想。游牧，不再仅仅是一个传统文化符号，而意味着艺术与思想的无限流动、循环、冲突、再生。
