Have you ever wondered what happens when ancient music meets modern technology? 🤔 Get ready to dive into a world where old melodies come alive in the digital age!
Director Jiaozi and Composer Yang Rui are on a mission to reboot cultural DNA for today’s world. 🎬🎵 They believe that timeless tales and songs shouldn’t be left in the past. Instead, they can be transformed and enjoyed by everyone today!
Composer Yang Rui took a 2,500-year-old Dong chorus—a traditional song recognized by UNESCO—and turned it into an electrifying battle song! ⚔️ How cool is that? By blending ancient melodies with synth wave (a style of electronic music), they’ve created a new sound that’s both familiar and fresh.
This new musical language helps tell Eastern legends in a way that speaks to all of us—even if we live far away or in a different time. 🌏 It shows that stories and music from long ago can still touch our hearts today.
So next time you’re listening to music, think about how the beats and tunes might be connected to history. Maybe you’ll discover a new favorite song that’s thousands of years old! 🎧
