Yan Jun is a Beijing-based musician and poet. He previously released 'it works' (Alone-002) on Aloe Records, and his creative materials range from electronic feedback to plastic bags. He is also an experienced vocal performer. In recent years, there has been a significant change in his vocal performances, with his vocal cords vibrating like feedback — or perhaps one could say that they resemble the voice of a 'human object'. Ryu Hankil is a computer musician, improviser and writer based in Seoul. His work revolves around sound writing and sonic fiction. His exploration of how an object's inherent vibrations can constitute a musical context has led him to realise that sonic thinking has the power to create diverse forms of fiction.

This album was recorded in Shanghai in 2024 and completed in Beijing in 2025. The Shanghai recordings are imbued with an eerie sense of multiple spaces compressed into a single moment in time: This includes Yan Jun's vocals echoing within a small room, fictional narratives and reverberations within Ryu Hankil's Max/MSP patch ⑥, and a cacophony of outdoor street sounds interspersed with MAI mai's occasional guitar practice. Later, before their concert in Beijing, they spent a few days at Mount Changbai. During this time, a shift in their collaboration became palpable, with the woody sounds emanating from Ryu Hankil's ⑧ and Yan Jun's shaman-like voice returning to a kind of primal ritual.

While this is not a professional studio album, it is a unique, unpolished work presented in its raw form.
