about

This is a live recording of a concert. We improvised back-to-back and didn‘t know what each other was using before the performance. Zhu Wenbo used an electric guitar on the table (no plucking), I used a turntable (no records) with electronics, and both of us barely used any effects. - Sun Yizhou

"Electrical noise, whistling high-pitches and transfixing overlaps of scrapes and rustles emerge, linking together in transfixing patterns. The sounds they create become triggers for the imagination. Midway through comes a rattle which triggers mental images of a poorly secured gate swinging in the wind. Feedback starts to sound eerily like wildlife. The tape is filled with precarious interactions, you can hear that the duo have to leave space, balancing hearing what the other is contributing while offering a response. It’s the polar opposite of talking over each other, and it’s wonderful to witness..."

- Daryl Worthington for Spool's Out (The Quietus)
