| 关于 Silent G |
|
Wuhan-by-way-of-Beijing outfit Silent G come perilously close to irritating ‘pretty pretty princess’ mannerisms on Jack In A Box; the music flirts with head-wagging sugariness and singer Danmu has her winsomer-than-thou moments. Luckily, though, the poppy ebullience is simply a way of grabbing the listener’s attention that, once attracted, rarely wanders from what is actually a delightfully dense and complicated album. This is a largely genre-free album – a refreshing change when most every other Chinese band can be instantly catagorised by musical niche. The perfect Silent G song (of which there are many on this disc) starts with an acoustic guitar line, to which is added elements of Chinese folk (album highlight ‘Anoia’, which is anything but), understated electronica, the occasional touch of jazz, a boatload of strings and Danmu’s magnificent, ethereal voice, which veers between Edie Brickell’s naffness, Bjork’s arty pretention (‘Cold Fire’) and Alison Goldfrapp’s otherworldliness (‘Love Mime’). However, where Bjork and Goldfrapp can sometimes sound emotionally unapproachable, Silent G succeed in creating a warm, inclusive music; the one exception being ‘Nymphet’ - the band manage to somehow create a completely passionless sex song. Still, aside from such little stumbles, Jack In The Box is a perfectly charming after hours record. 作者--Lizzie Bordenescu SILENT G乐队,成立于2004年。乐队最初是由编曲老罗和主唱丹牧组建,在2005年两人创作并制作了他们的第一张专辑《JACK-IN-A-BOX》,2008年专辑由摩登天空下的LUDI厂牌发行。 “JACK-IN-A-BOX”是一种玩具,打开盒子小丑会突然蹦出来吓人一跳。《JACK-IN-A-BOX》是一个孤独的小丑和一只无法逃脱的盒子的故事。《JACK-IN-A-BOX》充满了悲伤,充满了小丑荒谬的梦与忽然蹦跳出的古怪念头。 《JACK-IN-A-BOX》是一张有趣的专集,用《音乐之声22期》的话说,他们的音乐是在“迷幻的骨架中注入暗潮的低调冰冷、新古典的优雅大气、世界音乐的异域风情以及少剂量死亡民谣的绝望气息,营造出一种迷离而低温的媚态。” 因为在旋律营造上的天生敏感,而让整张专辑显得具有相当的可听性。而在编曲上,“Silent G寂”虽然也非常强调层次,强调不同乐器的组合,以及诸如非洲口琴、印度西塔琴这样的世界音乐元素的融合,但堆砌之下,却毫不会让人感到繁复,相反还因为细腻而灵动的组合,让原本应该很黑暗、很绝望的音乐形式,呈现出一种具有魔幻兼童话的色彩。
