Sui Zhen – Infinity Street

Sleepless

A special White Night version of Dekopon Dance used in 360 degree projections by French duo Antoine et Manuel that took over the Dome Room of the State Library, Victoria for White Night Melbourne 2015. 

Alex Akers of FORCES gently edits Dekopon Dance with Sui Zhen for the special performance, which also featured Cayn Borthwick (NO ZU) on saxophone.

Dekopon Dance by Sui Zhen (White Night – Forces edit)

Melbourne resident Sui Zhen’s ‘Female Basic’ showcases her own version of Japanese post-punk through a dreamy balaeric-bossanova filter. 

Having graduated from the Redbull Music Academy in London alongside the likes of Daisuke Tanabe & Andras Fox, Female Basic sees Sui Zhen move away from her previous beautiful bedroom-pop on to something more minimal and mysterious. Influenced as much by long sunny days spent in Osaka as nights in Shinjuku record stores hunting for Mariah & Dip in the Pool vinyl, Sui Zhen gives us the soundtrack for a slow-motion, late night disco found somewhere between Australia & Japan.

メルボルン在住のSui Zhen (スイ・チェン)のEP「Female Basic (フィーメール ベーシック)」は、ドリーミーでバレアリックかつボサノバのフィルターを通した彼女独自のジャパニーズポストパンク音楽と言える。 

ロンドンのレッドブル・ミュージック・アカデミーをDaisuke TanabeやAndras Foxと共に卒業し、Sui Zhenの「Female Basic」のサウンドは、ベッドルームで作成したような美しいポップ調から、よりミニマルでミステリアスな雰囲気に変化。 

日の光を浴びながら大阪の街を歩き回ったり、夜な夜な新宿のレコードショップでレコードハンティングをしながら、MariahとDip in the Poolのヴァイナルを手に入れた前回の訪日から多大な影響を受けて制作されたこの音源では、どこかオーストラリアと日本の間のディスコで夜更けにスローモーションのサウンドトラックを聴いているような感覚にとらわれる。

Sui Zhen – Orange Water

Sui Zhen – Beige Dip

ロンドンのレッドブル・ミュージック・アカデミーをDaisuke TanabeやAndras Foxと共に卒業し、最近ではi-Dにインタビューされ注目を集める、オーストラリア・メルボルンを拠点に活動するBecky Sui Zhen (DJネームはDJ Susan)。『Body Reset』は、前回リリースのEP『Female Basic』よりもレトロフューチャリスティックなサウンドに新しく進化を遂げた。東京・高円寺の街並みや、長野の山奥の温泉にも影響を受けて作ったという、クールなシンセサウンドと808ビートにドリーミーな歌声を乗せ、タイトル通り、体も心もリセットできそうな25分間の作品に仕上がった。

カセットは、オーダーから営業日２日以内に配送。

‘Body Reset’ sees Sui Zhen develop the music found in the Female Basic EP and move on to a new, retro-futuristic sound. This time influenced as much by late nights in Koenji, Tokyo as at an onsen/sauna in the mountains of Nagano, here Sui Zhen explores the resetting of both body and mind with 25 minutes of swelling synths, 808 beats and dreamy vocals.

Perfect Place (Original Version)

The next single from my forthcoming album Losing, Linda out Friday 27 September via Dot Dash and Cascine. 

Captured in the city of Matsudo, Japan in a repurposed Love Hotel, Zhen explains the creation of new single "Matsudo City Life", "the walls of the Love Hotel - titled 'Paradise Air' - were made of very thick concrete to keep loud noise in, which worked well for us musicians. Each room was uniquely themed. We were assigned one with faded pink and red tones, a love heart shaped bathtub and maroon carpet. Whilst the room we designated as 'the studio' was tiled with cool grey tones, marble and pillared. The city was what locals call a 'sleeper town' or bedroom community, which Salarymen would use only for rest. In some ways it was a city full of their dreams and empty of their reality."

Matsudo City Life

The next single from my forthcoming album Losing, Linda out Friday 27 September via Dot Dash and Cascine.

"I think there’s a lot of identity baggage that gets tied up in lineage. I’m still unpacking my thoughts around this – the sense of duty, obligation and function that comes with living in a female body which I find both heavy and powerful. I wrote this song, to find the gentle and enduring strength to live life as a woman."

Another Time

Throughout her discography and performances, experimental pop and performance artist Sui Zhen has zoomed in on the intersections between human life and technology — how to exist in the digital age, as well as the ways in which we risk losing true sight of ourselves in the process. From the banal pastel dystopia of the Secretly Susan era music videos to the invention of Linda, a ghostly apparition who manifests in her latest LP, Losing, Linda – her cinematic, surreal and staged landscapes allow her unique take on pop music to sit within its own uncanny terrain.
