Dreams

Description

"A mysterious object is revealed; the sound of the ritual drum intensifies; flares burst forth; the soul glides to the surface of the water; the breath illuminates the air; the body as sacrifice, I hear myself in this dream." The 12 songs that make up Dreams, the third full album by the trio Kaohsiung Elephant Gym, explore the deep continuum of space-time that consciousness cannot capture. Beyond the classic instrumentation of the trio: guitar, bass, and drums, Dreams blends wind instruments, traditional drums, and Taiwanese storytelling. Through a collaboration with Hakka singer-songwriter Lin Sheng Xiang and pop musician 9m88, notable for their achievements in jazz, soul, and R&B, Dreams is a vast narrative about a fantastic dream that transcends boundaries. After hitting play, close your eyes and enjoy the dream.
