Chunyang Yao, a Naxi experimental musician from Lijiang, China, released a limited edition of 2023 cassettes from Dusty Ballz, a Chinese underground music label based in London, England, in March 3.Contains 50 songs from free jazz to drone. Comes with DL code.Below is an explanation by the label. In September 6, during a residency exchange program curated by the Lijiang Studio, Chunju Yao set foot in Shiraoi, Hokkaido, a town historically inhabited by Japan's indigenous Ainu people.At that moment, she had a strange feeling of reversal.A Naxi artist born in the southwestern city of Lijiang, Yao was accustomed to performing under a certain exotic gaze in China.However, when she stepped into the esoteric world of Ainu life, she realized for the first time that she was a mysterious spectator of other races, and in it she saw the shadow of her own race with her deep ambiguity. Became.This entwined moment slowly reverberates and translates into a delicate resonance between two minority traditions struggling for their right to be remembered on the fringes of modernity.If memories are audible, does forgetting make noise?This question was the driving force behind the creation of Post-Oblivion. Post-Oblivion, unlike what you might expect from its title, demands emotion from the listener.Side A of the cassette tape contains a five-movement composition based on field recordings Yao collected during his stay in Hokkaido, while Side B is a lengthy improvisation with voice, noise samples and synthesizers. A performance is recorded.Two facets of Yao's unique artistic flair, both as a composer and as a vocal and electronic improviser.As a contemporary artist, as her mother, as a descendant of the Naxi tribe, and as a traveler in a foreign land, her identities overlap, creating a complex soundscape.The Ainu and Naxi share a pantheistic view of nature, and religion and culture are embedded within their environment.In the Naxi Dongba script, four glyphs are required to say "no sound": a lead stone, a pair of horns, a chipped moon, and a quark.Similarly, rather than recording directly with the Ainu community, Yao gathered her musical cues from the natural soundscapes of Hokkaido.Wind blowing over the seaside town of Tomakomai, fierce geysers, the cries of seagulls, the sound of crows flying around.She recites fragments of the Naxi proverb that "clothing, food and shelter are born from the soil," and weaves them in the same way as her own existence wandering around the island.Post Oblivion thus sings about permanence as well as loss.Through the rhythms and harmony of nature, it conveys a thunderous silence that confronts the politics of the colonial past and cultural memory.Click here to see more Dusty Ballz releases available...

While demonstrating an ever-growing ability to deliver explosive force and intensity in his free playing, Lao Dan keeps a brutal honesty in his approach to the instrument. He plays ‘jazz’ as what it is, not what it’s supposed to be. Navigating constantly between the East and the West, Lao Dan embraces a unique aesthetic which fuses all his past influences into a voice of glorious mayhem and sheer zaniness.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eRecorded in June 2019, this is a solo set in which two instruments – tenor saxophone and Zheng, also known as the Chinese zither – were played successively and simultaneously by hands and feet.
