简介

Somnolent is a downtempo Microhouse track featuring the world's first distributed recording of the Electric Zheng, manufactured by Jinyun Instruments in Yangzhou. This carbon-fiber all-electric Chinese zither and by extension, the music of Yukes玉刻, is an unlikely microcosm of a Cybersino fantasy, a look into the future of electronic music born of controversial inklings of curiosity growing like weeds through the concrete of a stagnant preservationist industry. Known for rigorously promoting traditional Chinese instruments and steamrolling the youth's interest in music via Confucian & archaic rote memorization rather than encouraging passion or improvisation, the world of traditional Chinese instruments is naturally at odds with the innovative explorations of young musicians who've engaged with these instruments. Still, for those who've ventured into trying new things with these instruments by unlearning the decade of brutal studying at the hands of a tyrannically competitive youth music education, a whole new world of music can and will be discovered. This is precisely where Yukes玉刻 hopes to inspire. An exploration of traditional instruments in contemporary situations. Somnolent features both this cutting-edge electric Zheng and the straight bamboo flute, Xiao. It begins with an ambient overture, then transitions into a minimal groove that's echoed throughout a number of venues in Shanghai and Chengdu. It is a song about sleeping late; how being asleep is better than being awake. The call of reveille is a call to action that not everyone must take. The Somnolent only know where to be it isn't here among the Awakened Tomorrow at rêverie We'll be here with the Awakened Were we wrong to come here with eyes closed in the daylight
