終則有始,盡則復生
Everything is nothing, and the ending is the beginning.
Fragments are embedded in contemporary life, from which we can not escape. The music of Taipei-based dark experimental sound activist Cheng Daoyuan is just such a journey through endless fragments, layers of sound textures and samples, building his own unique artistic vision between old-school post-industrial music and contemporary soundscapes. Dark ambient, harsh noise, glitch, gabber techno, digital distortion, ghostly vocals, pale but full of tension, "旣 Apeiron" comes from the abyss and goes into the future, reborn from the ashes, where the end is the beginning, invisible and without boundaries.
Previously released on cassette tape by Future Proof : 面向異日 in 2019, and now reissued by WV Sorcerer Productions as a double CD, 7" format trifold cover with obi, and a 24-page booklet of the artist visual work. Including a feature appearance of Mong Tong on “幽示 Divulging” and 7 remixes from: Yearning Kru, YunHao, Wa?ste, A.P.R.A (破地獄 Scattered Purgatory), Nerve, Coalminer, and Torturing Nurse.
碎片,嵌入在當下生活之中,你我都無法逃脫。來自台北的黑暗實驗聲響活躍分子鄭道元的音樂,便是在無窮盡的碎片裡穿行,由無數聲音材質和採樣堆積起的聲音片層,在傳統後工業音樂和當代音景之間構築起屬於他自己的獨特風格。黑氛圍、粗噪音、錯音、硬蕊電子、數位扭曲音牆、幽靈般的人聲,蒼白卻又高壓,《旣 Apeiron》來自深淵,走入未來,從灰燼中不斷重生,終點即是起點,無形無界。
