李英宏 水哥2020 / 專輯裝幀、預購贈品設計

水哥是一種風尚，是一種寶島少年轉大人之後的作派與人生觀。 2000年以前我們看著灌籃高手與東京情色派長大，家裡總有某個有點壞壞的長輩，梳著油頭配雷朋墨鏡，牛仔外套口袋裡總揣著一包紅大衛和名店的新鮮檳榔，見人從不說廢話，身邊從不缺七辣，他的職涯總是神秘，但長輩都說他為人正氣，那股揉合劉德華與湯姆克魯斯的在地原生種，可能就是水哥的原型。 千禧年後我們看了村上春樹，想成為聽著爵士唱片煮著義大利麵的文藝大叔，又看了昆丁塔倫提諾，想要穿著黑西裝和墨鏡，唸完馬太福音後一槍打爆某個阿斯巴辣的太陽穴，那種既市井又像個哲學家的走跳法，才夠水氣。 台北直直撞之後，英宏已改寫國民帥哥的定義，這次新專輯把他最新的音樂配方再進化，質感再升級，色色壞壞的台帥新頂峰，就是水哥 2020。

Earlier on Sunday, Riin & 阿牧君 mumu played an acoustic version of the song at 賣捌所 UriSabakisho; Riin kept Fran Fran (Frandé, 法蘭黛樂團) on stage for moral support, LOL:

By the way, this was part of an event with Zulin Wu 吳志寧/929樂團, Dadado Huang Jie 黃玠, Stanley Hong 洪詮翔 & Jiang Songlin 江松霖 (Xiaosong). I’ll keep my eye on lkk31067 YT channel for more from this long evening of songwriters.  =D

[fyeahcindie]

A coupla days ago, we posted some 鄭宜農 Enno Cheng news and a video from her acoustic tour.  

Earlier today (Sunday) she did a show at BEANS & BEATS in Taipei with 阿牧君 mumu and Gao Xiao Gao (白目樂隊 The White Eyes). 

The song In Lust I Lost was on The White Eyes 2011 ep Dead Boy:

It is also included on their 2017 album, 可笑的一天 with a more elaborate arrangement and it sounds amazing!  

lkk31067 YT is documenting Enno’s travels and she’s just uploaded another video from Sunday with Enno, Mumu, Xiao Gao plus Riin (The Girl and the Robots 女孩與機器人) and a very shy Fran (Frandé, 法蘭黛樂團). They sing Enno’s 2018 single The Path 人生很難. So cool to see all of these TW indie goddesses having fun playing music. Watch it HERE.

Check out this sweet, bouncy tune from 啊飄 Pew!   =D

This one of a 2-song single released earlier this year, [異常的日常].

Music/Lyrics by Pew, Guitars/Arrangement by Wong Kay Aik (王家毅 Wang Jiayi)

Pew is headed to Taipei in May for a show at 一文錢大學咖啡館 Penny University Coffee shop on the 5th. Special guest: 阿牧君 mumu

Let’s hear the other song from the single, this was co-written and performed by 啊飄 Pew, 黃美婷 Meiting, and 王曉敏 Shelby Wang:

[fyeahcindie]

Blast from the past!  929樂團 from 2008. Fun singalong song on their 2nd album.  =D

At the time, the band was Zulin Wu 吳志寧-gtr/voc, Russy Ing 吳雋然 aka DuDu 嘟嘟-bass/drums, Dadado Huang Jie 黃玠-gtr/voc, and Chan Cheng-yun (詹正筠) aka 小龜-keys/voc.

In 2009, 929樂團 went on hiatus and 小龜 & Dudu continued with their other band Miss Stocking 絲襪小姐 which includes 昆蟲白 / Insecteens Huang (黃建勳) on gtr (微光群島 Shimmering Islands aka Sugar Plum Ferry 甜梅號) and 錢煒安 Zen Chien-drums (Doodle and 8mm sky).  

Dadado, Dudu and Zulin restarted 929 with Robert Jen 任柏璋 on drums (he has played with many acts -- check out his fb -- I had no idea he had such a resume!).  In 2015, Dadado left to concentrate on his solo career and a new guitarist 蘇啟文 aka ‘由小蘇’ (光群島 Shimmering Islands) was added to complete the current lineup.  I think their 4th album came out last year.

Anyway, the reason I went on this 929 tangent is because of this clip from Sunday, a songwriter event at 賣捌所 UriSabakisho (we posted about it yesterday). Check it out: that’s Dadado & 小龜 singing the same 929 song from up above, with Dudu on drums, and a backing/dancing chorus of Riin, Fran Fran, Mumu and 江松霖 (Xiaosong)

Fran tries to coax some little kid into dancing, but it’s not happening. XD

By the way, 小龜 is one of the managers of 賣捌所 UriSabakisho in Yilan City, I think we’ve mentioned this before. On March 21st, she posted that as of April, they are suspending operation. I don’t know if this is permanent?. Maybe someone can take a look at the announcement and clarify this for me. I’d appreciate the info. =)

[fyeahcindie]

One of my all-time favorite C-indie bands: Mrs. This 這位太太

They were absolutely loaded with talent: 阿牧君 mumu  (ex-My 8 Day Weekend 週休八日)-voc/keys, 黑郎-keys, 江鎮宇 (Chen Yu Chiang)-guitar (Frandé, 法蘭黛樂團), 李懿修 Lexon Lee-drums (ex-My 8 Day Weekend 週休八日), Fang Q 方Ｑ-bass (CosmosPeople 宇宙人), Chuck Su (aka 蛋 Egg)-keys (ex-The Girl and the Robots 女孩與機器人)

Every time I post about this band, I always ask what happened to 黑郎?  UPDATE: Her real name is Joni Hsieh, and apparently she stopped doing music some time after Mrs. This broke up.  

More, more, MOAR:

If you are a prog fan, you owe it to yourself to investigate them on YT:  mrsthis

[fyeahcindie]

阿牧君 mumu and her old bandmate Chuck Su aka 蛋 Egg from 這位太太 Mrs. This playing a song from the 1st Mrs. This album (released in 2007)

Mumu recently disbanded 週休八日 My 8 Day Weekend to go solo; the drummer in that band also played in Mrs. This, I think he would have fit in quite nicely at this gig at Witch House!   =D

By the way, 女孩與機器人 The Girl and The Robots no longer list Chuck Su as a member -- I’m not sure what happened there, but it’s definitely good to see him playing with Mumu!

Cece Lee YT channel has 4 more songs from this gig.

[fyeahcindie]

Following on from the previous post, Mumu from My 8 Day Weekend 週休八日 made her announcement that with the release of this last song and a final performance September 3rd at A Good Day Records Pause & Play Festival (2017llkfestival.com), she’s going to go on from here as a solo performer, and she has a new page: 阿牧君 mumu. 

The song: lyrics by 阿牧君 mumu, music by 阿牧君 mumu & guitarist 江鎮宇

江鎮宇 isn’t in the MV, probably because he has been busy with his other band Frandé 法蘭黛樂團, and also playing on 劉若英 Rene Liu’s current tour.

Arny Ing is a member of Constant & Change ��士坦的變化球 and drummer 李懿修 Lexon Lee... The only thing I know about him is that he has played in both of Mumu’s bands (Mrs. This 這位太太 and My 8 Day Weekend 週休八日)

Well, I’m sad to see another band depart the TW scene, but if 阿牧君 mumu continues on in music, that will be a blessing~  =D

[fyeahcindie]

阿牧君 mumu has a new 2-song single!  =D  

In pre-order now. (at this digital store, you will also find releases from her previous bands Mrs. This 這位太太 and My 8 Day Weekend 週休八日)

Produced by Fran Fran Chen (Frandé), cover art by Lee Kan Kyo

大家安安！昨天半夜的時候單曲全面數位上架了，發現之後我居然嗨到失眠啊哈哈哈。 這張單曲收錄了兩首歌，製作人法蘭大大 Fran Fran Chen 也參與大量的編曲，謝謝她對我的神經兮兮搖擺不定腦子有病百般包容居然一次都沒有發過脾氣，真心 respect，希望我們的友誼沒有因此變質（應該沒有吧）。 另外這個好看又有點機車的封面是李漢強 Lee Kan Kyo 做的，我們還設計了一款「沒有CD的單曲」實體開放預購中，絕對超乎想像的⋯⋯好看又機車，在這個數位音樂賺不了錢的時代，我只能靠這個斂財了！拜託各位了！鞠躬！附上預購連結！ 預購連結：https://goo.gl/X69iHy 要謝的人還有很多我們下回分享，今天濕濕冷冷推薦單曲第二首「好想把自己晾乾」。

It’s been a long time since 2013, time flies...:

Blast from the past (2009)!  =D

Mumu Mu-Chun Wang posted this to the 這位太太 Mrs. This YT channel (mrsthis) and also to her fb, with the caption: 自我勉勵一下

Not a lot of activity at her new page, 阿牧君 mumu, but I think she’s got some songs brewing for release later this year.   =D

詞曲：阿牧  

你畫了心中的模樣 叫我努力去模仿 高矮全任憑想像 你怎麼不覺得荒唐 你看見了我的長相 笑著說我不一樣 終於我不再緊張 已翻過了你的圍牆 不用變成任何人的模樣 就好好地做自己吧
