Обзор альбома изданием the Beijinger:
...the second album by Beijing experimental folk mystic and Glamorous Pharmacy frontman Xiao He pushes even closer to the edge between music and performance art. On this double CD release, he completely forsakes lyrics, using vocals as a minimalist instrument to accompany an acoustic guitar. The first disc borrows from Mongolian throat-singing, Taiwanese aboriginal folk and country-style blues, whereas disc two – titled “One Man’s Orchestra” – is a collection of his live recordings.
On the latter, he breaks away from the expected and goes wild with industrial noises, electronica samples and electric guitar, all while doing what he does best: improvising. True, sometimes he can get a bit crazy – hysterical, even – but he’s also one of the most talented artists in Beijing, capable of creating astoundingly beautiful melodies. WG
