德州迷幻搖滾三重奏Khruangbin 5月18日台北PIPE Live Music 展現捲煙迷霧般的憂鬱浪漫

1/1

幻想一下自己驅車緩緩行經美國德州的Burton,在這居住人口大約只有356人的荒涼小鎮上,遠方的穀倉中傳出的悠悠貝斯與鼓聲…。

那是Khruagnbin,來自這個小鎮上,並深受音樂歷史啟發的迷幻三重奏。團員由貝司手Laura Lee,吉他手Mark Speer和鼓手Donald “DJ” Johnson組成。他們的創作,在涼黃的麥田間,汲取了跨時空的創作靈感,曲風融合了60年代泰國的放克場景與衝浪搖滾、70年代的波斯搖滾樂、80年代阿爾及利亞交響樂以及Disco舞曲,更結合了靈魂與和Balearic跳舞音樂。(他們的團名Khruagnbin是泰文裡「引擎飛翔(飛機)」。)

儘管Khruagnbin的靈感來自世界各地,但骨子裡還是扎扎實實的德州人。在樂團初始的幾次暖身彩排之後,Khruagnbin開始在他們的精神之屋,這座神秘偏遠的德州穀倉中,錄製歌曲。他們一直以來的演出訓練,不是為了討好出沒於各大場館的文藝青年們,而是彈給牧場裡的牛隻們聽的。

在牧場裡累積了許多粉絲之後(!?),Khruagnbin開始向外探索,決定了解人類是否也會喜歡他們的音樂。事實證明,他們的觀眾就如他們的音樂一樣,豐富而多樣。近年他們不斷在美國與歐陸的巡迴,許多大城市如紐約、倫敦、柏林皆場場售罄。甚至獲邀迷霧聖父Fahter John Misty與Massive Attack等大團暖身,也受邀於Glastonbury、Love International Croatia等音樂節演出。一路上廣受Worldwide FM的 Gilles Peterson 與BBC Radio的DJ Zane Lowe力薦,Bonobo也在《Late Night Tales》合輯內選入他們的作品〈A Calf is Born in Winter〉,音樂潮流媒體i-D、Clash、紐約時報、英國衛報、KCRW等好評推薦,2016年獲邀Boiler Room首次線上直播出演,更讓他們憂鬱迷離的魅力,從德州小鎮漫成一股樂迷難以自拔的律動與氣氛。

2015年Khruagnbin發行廣受好評的首張專輯《The Universe Smiles Upon You》,2018年1月甫發行全新第二張專輯《Con Todo El Mundo》,迷幻氣氛依舊,聽來更像一場無盡的捲煙迷霧,不停的在空間裡飛舞撲騰。輕灑上隻字片語、微弱的聲音旋律,以及無可挑惕的吉他獨奏。他們再次讓領著聽者展開漫長而愉快的點頭之旅,一同在大陸與時空中擺盪。

If you ever find yourself in Burton, Texas — population 359 — you may hear some strange sounds coming from a particularly remote barn.

The sounds are that of Khruangbin, a psychedelic trio who draw inspiration from the deepest depths of music history: mixing 1960's funk scene in Thailand, 1970's Persian rock music, and 1980's Algerian Symphonia with a dash of disco, soul, and Balearic music.

Though the band's inspiration comes from all around the world, their roots are distinctly Texan. Ever since their first rehearsals, Khruangbin have recorded at their remote Burton barn, their spiritual home. Which means their stage performance was honed not playing to hipsters in venues, but to cows out to pasture.

After developing a fan base of the barnyard variety, they decided to find out if humans would enjoy their music too. Since then, they've found their audiences just as diverse as the music itself — selling out headline shows in the US, UK and Europe, supporting acts like Father John Misty and Massive Attack, and late last year, signing on to be Corona's official brand sound.

Their debut album, The Universe Smiles Upon You, was released by Night Time Stories in November 2015 to widespread acclaim. Followed by the second album, Con Todo El Mundo, is a long and pleasant head nod that seems to hang between continents and eras too.
