#烏流 Kuroshio

[fyeahcindie]

When I was looking for a clip to post with the 大象體操 Elephant Gym world tour promo, I saw this EG cover by a band called 烏流 oo-Lâu.

We have featured this band once before, under the name 烏流 Kuroshio, a ‘name derived from the deep blue ocean current Kuroshio’. Some of their sites still use that name in the address, but they are going by 烏流 oo-Lâu. They sing in Taiwanese Hokkien, and have added lyrics/spoken word to the song above.

They released a couple of demos and official MVs in 2019, and a 3-song single in 2021:

簡小豪 Jian Xiao-hao (簡小豪 Kán Siáu-hô)-Voc/Songwriter, 蕭育融 Nelson Hsiao (Hsiao YuJung)-Gtr, 陳建安 Jason Chen-Bass, 林子祈 Benny Lin-Drums (Jason & Benny are also in 問題總部 It's Your Fault), 曾意軒 Ben Tseng (IG is better)-Keys, 李宛諭 Eva Lee-Synth/Voc.

Full credits available at YT. By the way, the ep as well as the EG cover were recorded at Morisound Studio, and Morisound's Yuchain Wang 王昱辰 produced the ep.

Let's hear the Elephant Gym's Go Through The Night. Part of this song is based on a gtr sample from a song by the Japanese band Toe.:
