hong kong dub station 香港空轉
Released by Drum Music in 2004, the third in the series of albums from
Celestial once again invokes a pan-asian dubscape of hypnotic rhythms and
deep space textures. Another tectonic phase shift from Celestial merges
the sounds of 70’s Jamaican b-sides with top Asian instrumentalists
and digital tech-know-how. Rhythms and sounds from dub plates, collide
with melodies and textures through zen temple gates… Trip the light
dubtastic in the dancehall of the mind…
Musicians featured again include Hong Kong’s number one erhu player,
Hsin Hsiao Hung; the musical ambassadors of Nepal, trio “Sur Sudha”;
Hong Kong’s very own shakuhachi master, Sunny Yeung; Asia’s
jazz guitar genius, Eugene Pao and flitting between China and France, Dave
Packer on harmonica. Multi-talented vocalist Angelita Li offers vocals
in English and Portuguese, though she’s just as much at home singing
in Cantonese, Mandarin and Tthai. and rapper/producer Eddie Chung supplies
some Augustus Pablo style melodica...
