BIRDPARTY
來自新西蘭的 BIRDPARTY 是極端金屬音樂人 William Barrett (Heresiarch) 和環境電子舞曲制作人 Emma Bernard (Ludus) 的奇異組合。該組合運用基于采樣的紋理、迷幻的人聲和鼓聲，為富有探險精神的聽眾打造出火花四射、妙趣橫生的科幻原聲。
BIRDPARTY的現場演出無法定義且不容錯過。他們探索著氛圍與喧囂之間的領域，創造出一種宣泄性、噪音化、電影般的成品。
自2023年誕生以來，BIRDPARTY已經成為新西蘭最令人興奮的新興現場演出團體之一，在 Twisted Frequency、Newtown Festival、Camp A Low Hum 和 Welcome to Nowhere 等音樂節和惠靈頓市立畫廊上吸引了眾多觀眾。
該樂隊是 Aotearoa Artists in Solidarity with Palestine (AASP) 聯盟的一員，并在去年為TAUTOKO GAZA 籌款音樂合輯貢獻了創作。他們計劃于2024年發布首張專輯，隨后則將在新西蘭和中國進行巡演。這將是他們第一次出國表演。
BIRDPARTY常駐新西蘭旺格努伊，與他們的貓咪 Sweetybub 一起生活。
* 注：奧特亞羅瓦 Aotearoa，毛利原住民語中的新西蘭。
BIRDPARTY is the unlikely merging of extreme metal musician William Barrett (Heresiarch) and ambient/electronic dance producer Emma Bernard (Ludus).Constructed with sample-based textures, trippy vocals and drums, the duo build scintillating sci-fi soundtracks for the adventurous listener...
Undefinable to conventional genre, BIRDPARTY’s live show explores the realms between ambience and uproar — delivering a cathartically noisy spread of cinematic semi-industrial goods & services. BIRDPARTY are based in Whanganui, where they live with their cat Sweetybub.
Vera Ellen
Vera Ellen在簡潔的歌曲創作方面是一名專家，每個音符與節拍都恰到好處。她的專輯由其清晰、自信且放松的嗓音率領，充滿了引人入勝的旋律。
Vera Ellen最初在垃圾搖滾/獨立樂隊 Maple Syrup 和 Sweater 這樣的樂隊中嶄露頭角。搬到洛杉磯后，她組建了樂隊 Girl Friday，在獨立巨頭 Sub Pop 的子廠牌 Hardly Art 上發行音樂。2020年初，Vera回到了新西蘭，隨后在當地傳奇后朋克廠牌 Flying Nun 上發行了《It's Your Birthday》和《Ideal Home Noise》。
這兩張專輯都獲得了評論界的贊譽——《It's Your Birthday》為 Vera Ellen 贏得了2022年新西蘭音樂獎的“最佳另類藝術家”稱號，而《Ideal Home Noise》則讓她和其合作者/制作人 Ben Lemi 在今年早些時候捧回了Taite音樂獎。
在新西蘭時，Vera和她的樂隊為Fazerdaze、Marlon Williams、Cate Le Bon、The Beths等藝人開場，并在最近與 Voom 和 Reb Fountain 一起巡演。
Vera Ellen樂隊將于今年10月首次為中國帶來她們的精彩演出。
Vera Ellen is an expert when it comes to concise songwriting; every note and beat is exactly the required dose. Her albums are full of hooked-to-the-brim melodies, and guided by Vera’s clear, confident, and relaxed vocal presence.
First emerged playing in bands Maple Syrup and Sweater. After relocating to Los Angeles, she started the band Girl Friday, whose music debuted on indie giant Sub Pop’s sub-label, Hardly Art.
Since returning to New Zealand, Vera Ellen has released It’s Your Birthday and Ideal Home Noise on Flying Nun Records, winning Best Alternative Artist at the Aotearoa Music Awards, as well as the Taite Music Prize.
Vera is generally either recording, touring, rehearsing, writing, drawing, hanging, working at a record shop in Wellington, or a combination in flight.
China Lineup:
Vera Ellen (vox/guitar)
Ben Lemi (drums/production)
Bella Guarerra (synth/vox/percs)
Lochi (bass)
Kaishandao
Kristen. 老K. 刀刀, 刀姐, 刀哥, 新西蘭牛肉腿, et al. Kaishandao 是永遠活躍在成都音樂場景里的符號。不論是在成都社區電臺 cdcr.live 直播間的控制室里按按鈕，還是以 Kiwese奇異思的名義給奇奇怪怪的樂隊做巡演，還是在舞池的左前方打卡，她感染人的能量最終匯聚成了自己獨特、新鮮的聲音——生于搖滾舞池，養于電子音樂。
Kaishandao (Mandarin for ‘machete’) is a musician and organizer from Wellington, who has been based in Chengdu for the past decade.
A talisman of the Chengdu music scene, Kaishandao is constantly in motion. Whether it's button-mashing at cdcr.live, touring weird bands with Kiwese, or clocking up hours front left — her infectious energy has culminated into a refreshing sound of her own—born in the moshpit, reared in the club.
Ludus
Ludus是來自新西蘭的DJ、制作人和作曲家。作為新西蘭俱樂部場景中的一位中堅人物和電子打擊樂二人組BIRDPARTY的主唱，她高能量、跨越流派的聲音活躍在汗水漣漣的舞池與臺前，以其律動、彈跳和出其不意的風格著稱。
被Ensemble雜志評為“新西蘭DJ女王”之一的她曾與Kevin Saunderson和Pitch Black等知名藝人同臺演出，并在Twisted Frequency、Outfield和Cuba Dupa等深受喜愛的音樂節上表演。她的首張專輯《Two of the Same》由惠靈頓電子音樂廠牌Strange Behaviour發行。
DJ, producer and composer from NZ. A firm fixture in the Aotearoa club scene and frontwoman of electro-thrash duo BIRDPARTY, her high-energy, genre-bending sound can be found across dancefloors and moshpits alike — known for groove, bounce and a knack for the unexpected.
Rizzo
常駐惠靈頓的聲音工程師Rizzo熱愛在她能找到的任何時機在DJ混音臺后放飛自我。她如魔術師一般，從各種音樂中汲取靈感，讓每場演出的環境來決定她的曲目。雖然Techno和Acid是她當下表演的主打，但你仍然可以期待從粗糙扭曲的音景到泡泡糖電子舞曲的各種曲風。讓我們一起跳舞吧！
Wellington-based sound engineer who loves to let loose behind a DJ mixer whenever she gets the chance. Pulling from a mixed bag, environment informs the gig. While techno and acid have become mainstays in her sets, you can expect anything from gnarled soundscapes to bubblegum trance. △
Womans Work
Mysterious glamour. Tour debut. Hydralicious mana wahine. Majestic marinations and/or YouTube rips. A woman's place is behind the decks.
Dawn Diver
黎明潛水（Dawn Diver）是來自新西蘭惠靈頓（Te Whanganui-a-Tara）的多樂器演奏家兼唱片制作人本·雷米（Ben Lemi）的音樂化身。他的音樂融合了實驗之聲、跳躍節奏和超強旋律感。
Dawn Diver is the aural realisation of Ben Lemi, multi-instrumentalist and record producer from Te Whanganui a Tara, Aotearoa. The music of Dawn Diver is a unification of sonic experimentation, rhythmic glitch, and hyper melodic sensibility.
