Sound is Energy. Getting out of bed and opening Ableton requires Energy. The servers hosting this website eat Energy. Power grids, thought patterns, drum machines, wars, photosynthesis, malls, arguments, cats jumping onto bookshelves - it’s all Energy. 

And now, Shanghai-based label Love Bang proudly presents their second compilation. It’s called Energy!  

On this record, nine friends interpret “Energy”, this inescapable concept that affects every single move we make. Making this album took lots of energy, in many forms. We hope you love it <3

2020, AKA The Year of Delivery. Waimai. Food delivery. Virus delivery. Vaccines. And now, at the end of 2020, Love Bang has something to deliver too. 

We’ve spent the last ten years swimming in the cartoon dimension and creating chaos. Parties are in our blood, but they only last one night. Music lasts as long as plastic delivery containers. Time on earth is short, so we’re launching a label to start releasing music. 

Our first release, "Delivery", is a compilation of footwork, bass, club trax, and delivery anthems made in 2020 by friends we’ve met during the Love Bang adventure: Ceezy, Gouachi, Graphic Violence, Heatwolves, MMQ, Swimful, Vorbi, and Tsui Honagi, a.k.a. Dirty K, who mastered the whole project. We've traveled together through airports and train stations during pandemic times as well as “normal” times. We've played shows and emerged from clubs into daylight together. We've grown together. May this be the first of many Love Bang releases! 

Thank you Waimai, for delivering us into 2021. And thank you to everyone who’s been a part of the Love Bang story so far <3
