菊花台（二胡與大提琴）- 陸軼文、黃北星

菊花台 / Chrysanthemum Terrace 作曲：周杰倫 / Composer: Jay Chou 改編：陳燮陽 / Arranger: Chen Xieyang

演奏家 / Performers: 二胡演奏：陸軼文 / Erhu Musician: Lu Yiwen 大提琴演奏：黃北星 / Cellist: Huang Beixing 協奏曲：上海交響樂團 / Orchestral Accompaniment: Shanghai Symphony Orchestra 指揮：陳燮陽 / Conductor: Chen Xieyang

菊花台 Chrysanthemum Terrace 作詞：方文山 作曲：周杰倫 ( Jay Chou )

你的淚光　柔弱中帶傷　 慘白的月彎彎勾住過往 夜太漫長　凝結成了霜　 是誰在閣樓上冰冷的絕望 雨輕輕彈　朱紅色的窗　 我一生在紙上被風吹亂 夢在遠方　化成一縷香　 隨風飄散你的模樣

菊花殘滿地傷　你的笑容已泛黃　 花落人斷腸　我心事靜靜躺 北風亂夜未央　你的影子剪不斷　 徒留我孤單　在湖面成雙

花已向晚　飄落了燦爛　 凋謝的世道上命運不堪 愁莫渡江　秋心拆兩半　 怕你上不了岸一輩子搖晃 誰的江山　馬蹄聲狂亂　 我一身的戎裝呼嘯滄桑 天微微亮　你輕聲的嘆　 一夜惆悵如此委婉

菊花殘滿地傷　你的笑容已泛黃　 花落人斷腸　我心事靜靜躺 北風亂夜未央　你的影子剪不斷　 徒留我孤單　在湖面成雙

菊花殘滿地傷　你的笑容已泛黃　 花落人斷腸　我心事靜靜躺 北風亂夜未央　你的影子剪不斷　 徒留我孤單　在湖面成雙

Your tears glisten with pain in their fragility The pale crescent hooks the past The endless night has crystallised into frost Who is it in the loft, destitute with cold hopelessness?

The rain slowly patters on the vermillon window My life is a tattered page battered by the winds Far-off dreams fading into mist Your image has been dissipated by the wind

Wilted chrysanthemums are spread across the floor; even your smile has turned faintly yellow The falling flowers induce sadness, and my thoughts languish In the passing of the north wind and the dusk, your shadow lingers on And standing by the lake, I only have my own reflection for company

Responding to the dusk, the flowers shed their brilliant shine They wilter on life's path, meeting a tragic fate Don't cross the river in melancholy, if you ain't broke your melancholy. You may spend a lifetime drifting, never reaching the shore

Whose empire is it now? The sound of horse hoofs thunders in the distance. My resplendent armour decays with the hounds of time Your soft sigh heralds the first ray of dawn The conclusion to another restless night

Wilted chrysanthemums are spread across the floor; even your smile has turned faintly yellow The falling flowers induce sadness, and my thoughts languish In the passing of the north wind and the dusk, your shadow lingers on And standing by the lake, I only have my own reflection for company

Listed: M. Sage

Colorado musician, artist and educator Matthew Sage produces a unique form of ambient music, one that focuses on personal experience rather than obscure intellectual objectives or new age mysticism. Through both his own sounds and those he curates via his Cached Media imprint his goal is to unearth the beauty within the seemingly mundane. With Paradise Crick, his latest and most fully formed release, he casts his gaze on the great outdoors, envisaging a camping excursion. In his review, Bryon Hayes found that the record was “his most visceral work, as he ornaments his typically ambient palette with an assortment of palpable shapes, colors, and textures.” In addition to making music, Sage also enjoys seeking it out, often from non-traditional sources. For this edition of Listed, he runs down some of the more interesting records that he picked up on recent thrift store diving excursions.

10 recent thrift store finds in no particular order — I hit the flea markets and thrift stores once or twice a month and get weird CDs and cassettes. I like buying stuff that I would otherwise listen to on streaming… or never listen to from these local companies. We have CD players in our vehicles and I listen to CDs a lot driving. Cassettes mainly happen in my office when I am writing or drawing. So… a lot of what I look for is sort of “functional music” that I can do stuff to. I also snag up favorites from bands I love… I found 3 Wilco CDs at one shop last week!

Anyway, here are some recent favs.

Bonnie “Prince” Billy — Master and Everyone

Found in Longmont at the thrift store with the curated CD selection. Long time BPB fan, and I especially like how subdued this one is. Maybe not my all-time fav Oldham out there, but it’s great and the CD is in great shape.

The New American Orchestra — Blade Runner Soundtrack

Found at one of the flea markets in Fort Collins. Maybe the one with the lavender? This is an orchestral adaptation of the original Vangelis score, and it is about as smooth jazz as it gets. Incredible sweeping melodies. This version of “Blade Runner Blues” feels like something hiding on “In a Silent Way.” Ambient jazz for sure.

Chet Baker — Let’s Get Lost

Another one from the Longmont spot. Been obsessed with Chet Baker for a while now in that when I don’t know what I want to listen to, I just throw on any Chet’s greatest hits album and feel content. I love the arrangement on “My Ideal” with the toy piano and Chet’s voice and trumpet.

John Coltrane — The Gentle Side of John Coltrane

Also from the Longmont spot. I, of course, love wailing Coltrane. But I also think his sweet songs are some of his best. “After the Rain” is especially informing some of the arrangement choices I’ve been making on some new Fuubutsushi songs.

Shanghai Film Symphony Orchestra — An Dun (Calming the Emotions)

I buy a lot of random CDs like this, and I can’t remember where exactly this one came from. But yeah, foreign/new age/private press, etc. weird CDs… and most of the time they aren’t great… but this one is very good. When I find something like this that I like I google it later. When I did that with this CD, I found it on YouTube and this is my favorite comment about it: “Whenever I play this on a construction site, at first the guys complain. Then later they thank me for playing it. Saying they've never felt better.” My toddler seems to enjoy it in the car… I do too.

Claude Debussy — Images pour Orchestre. Preludes: La Fille aux Cheveaux de Lin

70 minutes of Debussy from Longmont ARC. Lots of solo piano from Peter Schmalfuss. I like that these recordings feel soft. Sometimes classical piano feels really hard, lots of attack, almost like microscopic. These recordings are more spacious. Chris from Fuubutsushi swears by Ravel, but I am team-Debussy.

Georgia Kelly — Seapeace: Music for Harp

Can’t remember where but found this in Colorado in a stash of pretty heady new age tapes. Later found out it’s a cult classic. It is a self-released one — the album was later reissued on other formats by new age labels — so I love knowing Ms. Kelly herself released this copy into the world and it has since ended up in my possession. The whole thing is on YouTube!

English Meadow: Environments — Environments 1, 4, 12: Slow Ocean, English Meadow, Intonation

I have all the Environments titles on LP and have since started collecting cassettes when I see them in the wild. These 3 are specifically my favorite Environments, so finding them all in one go felt like a thrifting triumph. I feel like English Meadow specifically sounds nice on cassette.

okay part of me can't help but compare this to genshin's live concerts. I've watched the entirety of every single one of them.

so for those who don't know/watch them, in genshin concerts an already-existing game footage or animation is played in the background via a projector while the musicians do their thing. and it's great, because these people are all classically trained, professional musicians playing music from a great composer (yu-peng chen is an extremely talented guy and is like 70% reason why I still play genshin). mihoyo has hired shanghai symphony orchestra and london philharmonic orchestra for their music among others, for example. I think BAND-MAID is in their last live thing. you get the point.

but it feels like they were throwing money at an idea while hypergryph actually put some effort, care and thought into it. there were new visuals and animation accompanying most tracks. some of the vocalists were dressed up. they tried to integrate the game into the concert. they were probably working with a fraction of mihoyo's budget (mihoyo hires orchestras that are like 5x the size of that with a wide selection of instruments across several countries) and they did their best to create the feeling that the stage was full, you know, like you were getting an amazing experience, not like you were watching a slideshow to 15 people playing instrumentals.

anyway I feel like I need to rewatch the concert to actually get my thoughts in order, but I was thinking about this the entire time.

KOKIA in flashback - 2017

In the year of 2017, KOKIA begins a new project: Ton ton ton, a project that initially starts with 1 CD (Doubutsu no ongakukai, 'animal concert'), but with a twist: the CD comes in a tin with 6 different designs, all done by KOKIA herself. All songs are about animals, and for every song, KOKIA makes a separate leaflet with the lyrics and the animal design. The project is aimed explicitly at kids as well as adults, with merchandise and more CDs planned for later.

KOKIA returns to China not once, but twice this year, in January and in December, opening en ending the year with her visits. The year also ends with a Christmas concert as per usual, but this time, it's an orchestra concert.

She also starts counting down to her 20th anniversary next year, launching a special website like she did for her 15th anniversary. This is also when she starts her own Facebook page. The countdown has begun!

i know gensh*n aint everyone's cup of tea but saying that every character looks like shit or that it looks soulless without having ever played it yourself is really low especially if you dislike it because it's a gacha

there's so much work and clearly a lot of love and thought put into it not to mention the fucking soundtrack??? Imagine having the London Philharmonic Orchestra and the Shanghai Symphony Orchestra work on your soundtrack and having people think that because your anime girls look dull that nothing else in the game could be high quality or worthy of being called art
