8 + 2 + 8 II a new transmission from Beijing based post-punks Re:TROS.  Thunderous drums and digital conundrums, comprise the blizzard of dots and dashes at the heart of this Steve Reich inspired slice of globalist pop.
 
Rebuilding The Rights of Statues (Re:TROS) are heavyweights of the Chinese post-punk scene. This track represents the first taster of their album ‘Before the Applause’, due for release on Modern Sky Entertainment 15th September 2017, and produced by Hector Castillo (David Bowie, Lou Reed, Bjork, Phillip Glass).  

Inspired by Clap Music by Steve Reich, for all its mechanised brutality, 8+2+8 is built on the loops of several claps and slaps and human voices. “We wanted to make it in the simplest and most direct way without too many unnatural sounds” explains Hua Dong, “It's hard to say what this song is about. The lyrics, talk about three scenes— a boy burning videotapes, a pink flag burned in a museum and a wheel burning in a square (sung in German). They are all related to burning.”

Exposed to the arts from an early age, Re:Tros frontman Hua Dong was raised by intellectuals in the city of Nanjing. As a young boy, Dong befriended an American classmate – Kanye West, whose mother taught at the local school alongside his own mother. The two boys often spent time hanging out at Dong’s house, until his friend returned to the U.S.  

After graduating Dong began drumming for Chinese punk rockers PK14, where he met bassist and future collaborator Liu Min. Min and Dong soon moved to Beijing and formed Re:TROS, recording their debut EP (including contributions from Brian Eno) for Modern Sky Entertainment, China.  Their two album releases in Asia have met with widespread regional success, and the band have toured with Gang of Four, PIL and Ought. Re:TROS credit Bauhaus, Joy Division, Television and Pere Ubu among their greatest influences.
