Woo···Ah Woo···Ah Woo···Ah Woo···Ah Felt constrained A word or a nerd threw me to grey For your blame In phrases more blanks we gonna say Pour it off the stream At far and silent miles away Verse of flame A pain, profound in swelled ray Woo···Ah Woo···Ah Rays~ Reflected sunlight (ceasing in causes)

云 匆匆飘 倒影在摇~晃了地上绿草 车轮 晕晕地转 转弯 去不同地方 小妹 轻轻笑 藏起有疤 的嘴角 烟盒 露宿街头一夜 是星期天 最后一杯伴 ~随的味道 未消退的美妙 早安 已揭晓 新闻 已填满巷道 真心人睡不饱 假睫毛准备好 稍纵即逝 的音符 让这一天也 不会感觉疲劳 灵感啼叫~醒了手中波涛 点头 跺跺脚 搜索 加油的管道 烟盒 露宿街头一夜 是星期天 最后一杯伴 ~随的味道 未消退的美妙 早安 已揭晓 新闻 已填满巷道 真心人睡不饱 假睫毛准备好 稍纵即逝 的音符 让这一天也 不会感觉疲劳 灵感啼叫~醒了手中波涛 点头 跺跺脚 搜索 加油的管道 校对 时间 交换分秒 有一剂循环起效 的药

Knocked at the window A hyaline beauty She’ s whistling Through the wind And touched the wind 爬上蔷薇叶的梢 挂上北斗的星 为猫的晨跑拨开窗隙 它们呼叫 新鲜的花草 排队灌上水滴 风干的标本 看到蜥蜴也会淡定 当风来 烘焙布丁 lead它起舞 当太阳晒 握住画笔 调色圈养冷血动物 当翅膀听到音乐 舞出散发光的碎片 当飞到累了 飞回那里叫做秘密花园 你听不见它拍打翅膀 因为它微小 如果心不变对周遭环境 都能察觉到 好奇的触角 带它触碰 每次驻脚 每个互动 在花花世界中腾空 抓不到是欲擒故纵 它是 自由自在 有点像是置身事外 总带著优雅姿态 像是不曾难行窒碍 存在也不存在 不论在 不论断 不困在 人世间替它定义的混乱 简单的线 复杂的圆 哭泣的脸 微笑的眼 都是她懂得爱护的 一天 又一天 平凡的天 特别的夜 汗水的咸 花蜜的甜 翻阅著生活的日记 一页 又一页 世上没有另一只同样的蝴蝶(蝴蝶) 没有另一只这样的蝴蝶 世上没有另一只 同样的蝴蝶(蝴蝶) 没有另一只这样的蝴蝶 依赖 习惯 隐瞒在黑暗 称赞 哀叹 搅拌另类的浪漫 她的思想 是一种冒险和穿越 突破完美表象涌动 藏在钟的背后 嘀嗒作响 像是孩童 像是鸟吟唱着 但生命太快 关于其他我已经都忘了 紧张地忘了每个事件 美的世界 自然的声音所说的语言不止在字面 关于其他找不到忘记了想不起放弃了 塞不进消失了未来可能都在梦里见过 挥比翼 用身体制造时光通道 若凝闭 我想做她安全的岛 慢慢记忆变得模糊 脚步变得踌躇 没有能套用的模组 变化在她的头颅 一切逐渐灰飞烟灭 伸手也抓不到 让情绪宣泄 他们对你再也伤不到 (A Hyaline Beauty) 飞得久了 她是透明的 当飞到累了 她是透明的 飞不动了 她是透明的 当飞不动了 她变成透明的 (A Hyaline Beauty) 你看它飞啊飞啊 飞啊飞啊 世人整天追啊追啊 追啊追啊 你看它飞啊飞啊 飞啊飞啊 世人整天追啊追啊 追啊追啊 飞得久了 当她是透明的 当飞到累了 她是透明的 飞不动了 她是透明的 当飞不动了 她变成透明的 飞啊飞啊 飞啊飞啊 追啊追啊 追啊追啊 飞啊飞啊 飞啊飞啊 追啊追啊 追啊追啊 飞得久了 她是透明的 (飞啊飞啊 飞啊飞啊) 飞得久了 她是透明的 (追啊追啊 追啊追啊) 世上没有另一只同样的蝴蝶(蝴蝶) 没有另一只这样的蝴蝶 世上没有另一只 同样的蝴蝶 没有另一只这样的蝴蝶(蝴蝶)

听着你的温情 放走你的氧气 等候没有重力 的 飞 起 分解手心微光 跌跌撞撞像涟漪 要学习呼吸 掠取我的乡音 软禁我的哼鸣 竟然有种欢心 的 rubbish 飘着供奉星云 保存真空中力气 去陌生天庭

重重叠叠 反复着几个音 如同幸福 美满 说着同样含义 就像天亮光线准备出发 去往七个方向 时间在经过流逝后储蓄 而记忆变成汪洋 你是否在意 这七下的顺序与稳定 或该揪心 你我犯下的七个罪行 欲盖弥彰 天风浪浪 茅塞顿开 却霍然不开朗 火焰燃起 越靠近越觉周遭寂静 部署大局 愈趋向缜密愈难平心 是疯狂的疯 是疯狂的狂 是音药治愈不了的病 是历史肌理上粗糙的一块皮 朦胧的一颗月亮 朝着锐角方向 浸入海里 不见踪影 天上的变化 仿佛是因为大海 那一晚 我们盯着海上 渔船归港 本该是 满月晴朗 海水 没有阻抗这轻微的雨水 海面下的水母 跟着雨的速度 时快 时慢 时慢 时快 放光 浮游

Look into my eyes, Look into my eyes, The eyes, the eyes, Not around the eyes, Don’t look around the other eyes. Draw me a sheep in your mind, Come with me into the wild, Then you under... every time you close my mind own love for your washing my mind in trance every time you close my mind The sound’s leading to a wild world A world is full of what? Except the lie chains In shelter of the green chamber The sound’s leading to a wild world A world is full of what? Except the lie chains In shelter of the green chamber own love for your washing my mind in trance every time you close my mind I hear the willow weeps for me ‘3, 2, 1. Welcome back to my eyes! You are in complete control of this time’

You’re right He’s right A stumbling gaze evolved a moment tonight He’s right You’re right A certain day is hustling the very last light up and high the windows flap slowly to a ballad twice cry after cry he sadly cries the voice wets in my eyes I might grow up I might as well not cry A world full of human gone bad We again waiting to choose life I long to be out in the sunrise I sing my song and answer you truly why up and high the windows flap slowly to a ballad twice cry after cry he sadly cries the voice wets in my eyes I might grow up I might as well not cry A world full of human gone bad We again waiting to choose life I long to be out in the sunrise I sing my song and answer you truly why

about

“My whole life I’ve had too many people describe me as calm and cool-headed. This kind of ‘compliment’ perhaps shines a light on some of the obstacles and conflict I experience when trying to express myself through music. Will this temperament of being lost for words come across as the ‘me’ in my music?”

From this moment of self-doubt comes Voision Xi’s remarkable statement of self-expression, Lost for Words. The result is a diverse record that weaves together spoken word poetry, improvised jazz, and earworm funk, blending moments of vulnerability and uncertainty without coming across as timid as the title - or the spiritual starting point for the record - may suggest.

The first full-length release under Voision’s own name, Lost for Words is rooted in the playful jazz that typified her 2018 EP of covers with the Little Happiness Group, Debut. Yet it also pulls together the musical explorations that she’s undertaken since, plucking elements from her work with Eating Music (and in particular her experimental electronic EP Four Loops in Her Way) and seeing her pull in favours and take inspiration from an eclectic cast of talented musicians, rappers and producers who she’s befriended along the way. “I feel so lucky to have been able to work with all the talents involved, but it’s also an affirmation to myself that I can be an ok album producer,” says Voision modestly.

The album was originally put together as a series of ‘chapters’, in part because Voision says, “I am still slow in making things”. Her lingering self-doubt means she professes to “hate” this lack of speed, yet it pays dividends on many of the tracks here, which feel well-rounded and complete without being overly fussy. On others, the frustration also works to her benefit, triggering her to cut loose with improvisation.

That could result in a piecemeal, fragmented record. But Lost for Words works as a cohesive whole. And despite the reticence suggested by the title, the message from this LP comes through loud and clear: Voision is a talented artist with bold ideas - and one who's really finding her voice. (by Jake Newby)

还没学会说话,好像就已经先学会了唱歌,而学习用音乐说话,我只能算刚刚开始。说些什么呢?从小到大被太多人形容淡定和冷静,这种张口而来的“夸赞”似乎可以映射我有时候在音乐表达上的阻碍和冲突,这种欲言又止的气质会不会也是音乐中的“我”?原创专辑的开启,是我对自己更真实的触摸,是2018年发布第一张爵士改编 EP 和之后的一次升级,而正在阅读这些文字的你,从三个分开的章节到现在的完整篇,也是这些声音共同的书写者。

2018、2019年的时候因为一些机会曾多次去往台北。那里淡淡的空气、街道、朋友以及角角落落,都十分令人眷恋,有让我“寄人篱下”的瑛兰、华劲和他们的一双腊肠狗狗,有同我一起写词并曾经是我年少时崇拜的押韵博士老莫以及最好吃的小潘凤梨酥,还有明明刚在纽约西村俱乐部偶遇而又在其家乡一起玩耍的子瑜等等。许多新鲜事贯穿于每次往返的前后发生,许多灵感萦绕在不同的纬度与温度之间,我把这些都留在<星期一的歌 Monday Spirit>, <蝴蝶 Butterfly, A Hyaline Beauty>, <Wolverine (Silent Chaos)> 这三首歌里,和2019年玉成戏院录音室的夏天。

<星期一的歌 Monday Spirit> 歌词中写到过一个词:灵感啼叫。这应该是创作者们都很期待的发生吧。非常庆幸我自己也遇到过此般情况。两年多前,吉他大师 Gilad Hekselman 在上海演出,他的三重奏充满魅力和能量,音乐产生的磁力把我吸了进去,一首 <Stumble> 听完我脑海中便产生故事的开始——We stumble around in this infinite world……回家路上我奋笔疾书一首诗 <Magnetic Field>,试图形容对“磁场”这个词的感知。还有另一个仙子 Becca Stevens,我曾跟她上过一节宝贵的私课,那次经历根本不像是课堂,而是从词汇卡到小王子绘本的激发式聊天实验,我像个被启发的小孩子一样写出了 <Turn On the Planet>,它是我为数不多从刚下笔就感觉很确信的一首。这些音乐所传递的,都想要好好珍藏在我的心球。跟我一起完成这两首歌编曲与演绎的好朋友肖骏说:“如果人生是无常的,希望我们的音乐也是无常的。”<真空垃圾 Vacuum Improv> 是我们这次的共创 Bonus。

与之呼应的另一首半即兴曲目是 <晶澈 Crystalline Improv>,这首和我对话的是大淮(王晨淮),还有他特别好听的合成器,很幸运能把这些充满灵力的声音记录下来。在这张专辑的多首曲目中,我也用上了我自己的“小武器”,虽做不了真正的乐手,但也多了一份实在的参与感,就像自己动手装修着自己家的角角落落。

还没被大众发掘的宝藏制作人 Sdewdent 帮助我一起完成了专辑同名歌曲,他创作的独特敏感最终营造出我们想要的主题氛围。专辑中还记录着他们贡献的声音:Eric Lau、Kaidi Tatham、Toby Mak、杨光、安雨、小黑(刘恒)、周润青、Danny Zanker,这些令我敬佩的佼佼者们。

这几年,音乐人的身份让我认识了很多新伙伴,交流和学习着不同项目,而我也一直保留着以「Little Happiness Group」为名义的爵士演出,我想它会一直存在。三年前陪我记录 <DEBUT> 的张雄关、李世海、Joseph,继续在新专辑中为我的写作加持,我爱不受限制的新奇声响,也爱单纯动人的原声音色,当被熟悉的 LHG 包裹,身上会立刻爆出幸福的鸡皮疙瘩。这次潜力巨大的鼓手俞国俊也正式加入进来,跟我完成了风格迥异的几首歌。<七下烂调 Seventh> 是「爵士与诗歌」的试验,<梯子 Ladders> 是人声与管乐的“再续前缘”,而如果你听过我的 <4 Loops in Her Way> ,肯定就能立刻认出 <催眠师 Hypnotist> 。

在做这张专辑期间,我也进行了一些合作项目,有的是词曲,有的只是加一点 backing vocals,每一次小小的尝试能给我带来对自己声音的加深记忆与多维理解。但着实痛恨自己做东西还是慢,不然也不至于要把一张专辑的发行战线拖成如此这般绵长,在此感谢后期主力胡仕俊老师。如果说每首歌是一个故事,那要怎么把它们串联起来?这对我来说并不容易,有人声的曲子比纯器乐可能会多一些想象的限制,但同时也有了引导的权力,我更享受在音乐里倾诉,哪怕只是在对自己说。

<欲言又止 Lost for Words> 没有在说什么社会观点,它就是我的生活记录,是另一种时间的刻度,它刻画的是融汇着人声美感与想象力的意境,一种背靠着爵士乐和各种不同音乐的广阔与自由的勇敢,不能说特别完美,但我真的非常爱它,快要做完的时候已经有了不舍的感觉。感谢所有人的帮助,音乐上的和音乐之外的,再一次感谢你们聆听新的小喜。等我们在专辑音乐会时相见,我一定也会欲言又止,让音乐说。
