近年開始得到海外樂迷關注的香港實驗器樂樂隊Virgin Vacation 擅長利用具節奏感的編曲風格和現場即興的音樂演奏合成出迷幻的聲景 。

若音樂就是對話的媒介 ，Virgin Vacation的音樂便像是擁有兩個極端想法的人在嘗試溝通 。 一端是強調結構簡潔而具邏輯的編曲，近乎 Krautrock的推進力，多變且連綿不絕的節奏旋律 。 而另一端則是不受任何法則拘束的混合自由爵士樂及即興新音樂的翻動 ， 脫離調式音樂的概念， 著重于即興奏樂結構性與非結構性之間 。

Virgin Vacation首張全新專輯《Dapple Patterns》是一趟未知的旅程，既是光與影的結合 ， 漣漪躍動所生的波紋 ，也是一種幻想，一場光怪陸離的夢 。 黃丹與菜之花，馬爾杜克與胡姆巴巴，顏色與神話 。 旅人們或許在銅管聲與失真的音效中感受瘋狂，從合成器中墮落無間的迷失 ，最終在鐘片琴的奏鳴中找到一絲平靜。

若你在不知不覺中被那不停重復的旋律荼毒，你可能已陷在Virgin Vacation的暴烈與溫柔中難以自拔。

Virgin Vacation, a Hong Kong experimental instrumental band who has begun to attract attention of oversea music fans draws myriad sources from krautrock, film soundtracks, free jazz, electronica and brews them into a carefully crafted concoction of controlled chaos. Virgin Vacation is a music experiment in exploring new sounding through combining both structural and non-structural music forms which is unique in their own right.

Virgin Vacation’s new album -“Dapple Patterns”is a voyage into the un- known, a bizarre dream. Ohni and Nanoha, Marduk and Humbaba, colour and myth. Dear travellers and dreamers, you may be driven to madness by the bass and distortion; you may get lost in the boundless synthesizers; you may find ultimate peace in the glockenspiel’s chimes. However, Dapple Pat- terns is not merely a journey, it is the dance of light and shadow, refracted ripples in shallow seawater, a catalyst for our endless imagination.
