A co-production between Old Heaven Books (Shenzhen) and Leo Records (UK / Russia). Recorded in the Chinese city of Shenzhen in front of the full capacity audience, the first set was a Vyacheslav Ganelin solo (42'05), followed by a Kruglov-Yudanov duo (35'11). They then played a trio which received a long ovation in China.

"After his self imposed exile from the global world music niche, Mamer found his stage at Shenzhen’s two annual music festivals – Tomorrow Festival and OCT-LOFT Jazz Festival – curated by his loyal friend and supporter Tu Fei, who would always reserve at least one set for Mamer’s newest sonic experimentations. Mamer’s most recent album Faintish Radiation documents his full performances of solo improvisation at the seventh (2017) and eighth (2018) OCT-LOFT Jazz Festivals, in which he performed electric bass, guitar, dombra, jew's harp and vocals. These recordings register Mamer’s trajectory towards a maturing avant garde composer who is able to capture the audience with an everchanging bizarre sonic kaleidoscope, one which summons industrial noise, doom drones, heavy metal riffs, dark and punchy grooves, and broken pieces of folk melodies. In each of his solo performances, Mamer would start from random notes and eventually build up an overpowering atmosphere that is distinctively his own, knowing only too well when to release a delicate Kazakh tune as a reward for intensive listening. Here “Daidiydao”, a heartbreaking love song believed to be composed by Kazakh poet Magzhan Zhumabayev, was unleashed towards the end of the 2018 performance, before an abrupt, typically Mamer stop that ended the whole set. --- 录音 Recording：曾君 Zeng Jun；罗绿野 Luo Lvye混音 Mixing & 母带处理 Mastering：刘英 Liu Ying制作人 Producer：涂飞 Tu Fei设计 Design：尹思卜 Yin Sibo封面照片 Front Cover Photo：@Waitetc_等等其它摄影 Other Photos：阿瓜 Wain；陈鸿@DAFA；蒙润

"Born in 1945, Guo Yongzhang has performed zhuizi - a traditional Chinese style of narrative singing - for half a century. An artform whose history spans over a century, zhuizi originated in Henan province. Its main musical instruments are the zhuihu, a two-stringed bowed lute, and the zhuibang, a wooden percussion played with foot tapping.  Almost completely blind, Guo Yongzhang is known for his peculiar, resounding yet smooth vocal style. He sings with deep feelings and great verve. Lyrics deal with both the hardships and good values of life while always maintaining a sense of humour. Despite being long regarded as a folk master, Guo has continued to play tirelessly among ordinary people, often travelling from village to village and performing for a whole day at a time. As he nears the end of his life, Guo regrets that nowadays, few people wish to learn the art ofzhuizi. He worries that this precious art form may soon be lost.  This release, titled after one of Guo Yongzhang’s most well-known songs, Lao Lai Nan, commemorates his performance at the 5th Tomorrow Festival. Guo co-headlined the last day of the festival with French prog-rock act Gong on May 20, 2018. His performance was recorded live and is due to be released on both CD and LP by the Old Heaven label in November 2019. --- Guo Yongzhang /  Zhuihu, Zhuibang, Vocals --- Recorded in the late-1980s, Released in 2018

Liu Ying is a guitarist, producer, mixing engineer and electronic musician. 远眺或低头不语 刘英的音乐里，充满着“音乐”。 而不是玩弄一些自我麻醉无病呻吟的声响——每一个音符背后都是严肃的作曲和演奏，尽管你看不见，有可能也听不到，但是它们就在那里。 这种错位不是天生的，是他作为一个音乐人长期练习的结果。 刘英也曾多次强调，就算设备再好，乐器再多，观念再新，但如果自己不练习，也不会让音乐变好一分一毫。 正是这种朴素的音乐观，加上他天真的本性，以及作为一个吉他手、编曲者、混音师的复杂工种带来的多重影响，使他的音乐充满了一种“格格不入”的气息。 太空无言，现实无常，温情无义……这些都将在一堆冷酷的模拟合成器上得到体验。 令人沉思是必然的 —— 抓紧时间，抓住时间，搬一张塑料板凳，守护贫瘠的梦境。 文: 涂飞 --- 作曲 Composed by 刘英 Liu Ying电子合成器 Synthesizer by 刘英 Liu Ying封面摄影/设计 Photography/Design：张咏瑜 Zhang Yongyu文案 Liner Notes：涂飞 Tu Fei统筹 Coordinator：陈铁梅 Chen Tiemei   OH 033旧天堂书店 Old Heaven Books，2022

The Other Two Comrades was an avant-garde music group led by multi-instrumentalist Huan Qing. Active in the late-1990s and early-2000s in Chengdu, Sichuan province, the group was one of the cores of Chengdu’s earliest rock scene as well as a pioneer of experimental rock and avant-garde music in the Chinese underground. The band went on hiatus when Huan Qing left Chengdu in mid-2000s to focus working on folk songs and traditional music in Southern China. These two cassette releases are reissues of the group’s long out-of-print first two albums, both hand-numbered and limited to 400 copies. New artworks were made by woodcut artist Liu Qingyuan.

"On the night of December 18, 2021, Mamer and his newly formed psychedelic folk band Mask were about to record a live album at Shenzhen B10 Live, a few audiences were invited. Before the recording, Mamer improvised on sherter for nearly 40 minutes. This album was therefore born.Xêrtêrmin / Sherter Solo may be, or should be the world’s first sherter solo album—although we don’t want to overemphasize it for the sake of sales. Most of the time, this ancient Kazakh instrument is used as a tenor dombra in ensembles, rarely as a soloist—but on this night, its old soul was awakened." - Tu Fei --- 切尔铁尔独奏: 马木尔 Sherter Solo by Mamer2021 年 12 月 18 日录制于深圳 B10 现场Recorded on Dec. 18, 2021 at B10 Live, Shenzhen制作人 Producer: 涂飞 Tu Fei录音 Recording: 曾君 Zeng Jun, 罗绿野 Luo Lvye母带 Mastering: 刘英 Liu Ying封面绘画 Album Cover Artwork: 张咏瑜 Zhang Yongyu摄影 Photography: 阿瓜 Wain设计 Design & 统筹 Coordination: 尹思卜 Yin Sibo曲目翻译 Tracklist Translation: 唐加力克 Karatorhay (哈译汉 Kazakh-Chinese), 骆炜湘 Lowi (汉译英 Chinese-English)旧天堂书店 & 深圳 B10 现场联合出品Published by Old Heaven Books & B10 Live, Shenzhen 2023

Puppet is a rock band that was started in 1991 in Urumqi by Xinjiang musician Feruh (法茹克). It has gone on to become one of the longest living rock bands in China. The backbone of Xinjiang’s underground scene, Puppet has gone through numerous line-up changes while Feruh remains the only constant member and the mastermind behind the project. In 1997, Mamer joined Puppet and has since maintained a close relationship with the band. The band went on hiatus from 2002 to 2005, reformed in 2006, and finally released their full-length debut 'Urumqiin' 2008, a sophomore titled '32 Days' followed in 2014. Feruh is currently working on his new band 6501, named after the first four digits of identity card numbers in Xinjiang, 6501 released their debut 'Endgame' in 2018 under Modern Sky’s Bad Head sub-label.  This is Puppet’s first greatest hits album, compiled by Feruh himself, with songs selected from different periods of the band’s history, the song “3 O’clock Xinjiang Time” is previously unreleased. It's gold.   

Iz’s classic album Kөlêngkê (meaning “shadow” in Kazakh). Arguably the most well-known work of Mamer’s group projects, the album was recorded in 2010 when Iz was in the middle of transformation from a Kazakh folk group to an avant-garde music project under various contemporary influences including industrial, progressive, and psychedelic rock. The album took almost a year to record during which Mamer decided to start all over several times. In Kөlêngkê, the band mixes the acoustic sounds of traditional Kazakh instruments, such as dombra and kobyz, with distorted electronic effects and harsh metallic percussion. Drummer Zhang Dong assembled his own kit, replacing snares and cymbals with barbed wires, a giant caged iron fan, and various metal scraps collected from factories. The result is a bricolage of dark, rusty, and confrontational industrial sounds underlying the traditional Kazakh surface, a forceful and sincere anti-world-music type of “world music”. --- Mamer / vocal, dombra, bass, guitar, kobyz, jew’s harp Nurtay / bass, vocals Zhang Dong / drums, percussion --- Recorded in 2010, Originally Released in 2011, Reissued on Cassette in 2015  

Mamer’s signature dombra solo album Kêngistik (meaning “sky” in Kazakh), arguably one of his best-received and widest-known works to date. Apart from tracks 3, 7, 9, 11 which are Mamer’s own composition, all tracks are interpretations of tradition Kazakh tunes. Instead of showing off his skills in the high-speed type of playing typical of dombra virtuosos, Mamer plays the dombra note by note, slowly and calmly, with heavy reverb. His approach to the instrument here, as in his other solo releases, reflects Mamer’s unique and contemporary understanding of the music tradition of his people. The album was recorded in 2010, during the same session of Iz’s album Kөlêngkê. In the studio, Mamer involved in an argument with his friend Fei when the latter asked whether Mamer had “abandoned” the Kazakh tradition for rock music. Mamer turned the light off, recorded the whole album on dombra in one go, and left his friend with his answer: “This is my kind of tradition.”

"Drummer Deng Boyu's debut solo electronics release. Being almost obsessive about constructing a minimalistic ambiance, his works are full of exquisite and whimsy compositions which shows his characteristic aesthetic of sampling and collage. Deng Boyu has collaborated with many important musicians and bands at home and abroad, including Mamul, Xiaohe, Wu Na, Da Wang Bar, Lee Ranaldo, Marc Ribot, Akira Sakata, Sabu Toyozumi, Steven Buchanan, Federico Casagrande." --- Deng Boyu / electronics --- Mixed by Liu Ying 设计：魏籽.
