This friend seems that you are also a super fans in Xu Wei
Then let me tell you something about Xu Wei. Watch it!
★ Introduction to Xu Wei ★
We live in an era where there is not much music worth listening to again and again, and Xu Wei's new album "Time Walking" is a record that you can listen to again and again. Xu Wei, a mysterious and true name, has been given multiple definitions by many people, such as bard, rock prodigal son or humanistic singer, but in front of all these definitions, it is closest. Time Walking once again proves the inseparable life connection between Xu Wei and music. Therefore, we are more determined. No matter how noisy the times are, no matter how popular it is, Xu Wei can only be a person who expresses his life experience with music.
The creation of the new album lasted for two years, and Xu Wei accumulated a lot of materials. Walking in the streets of Beijing or Xi 'an or staying quietly at home alone, he kept playing and singing. Too harsh creative self-discipline almost let the wonderful works slip away, and because of this, every work in the album is the condensation of his musical strength. So, we heard the English-style "Swan Tour", the "Blue Lotus" full of Zen atmosphere, and of course, the "gift" that made friends in the circle cry on the spot during the recording. As the producer of this album, Xu Wei invited his music friends to complete this happy musical excursion together. Liang Jianfeng played most of the guitar in the album, and at the same time, he also completed the arrangement of some tracks. Undoubtedly, this fellow musician, who is as persistent as Xu Wei in music, has expanded the work of the new album in a broader space. During the recording of the album, Liang Jianfeng often spends several hours for a guitar tone, hoping to find a better state. The drums in the album are all completed by Funky, a Japanese musician. Funky is a "music ronin" who has won the admiration of people in the circle. He travels between Tokyo, Hong Kong and Beijing all the year round. This time, the coincidence has contributed to their cooperation. Funky's drums have added indispensable magic to the album, and his grasp of texture and rhythm is impressive. In Xu Wei's concept, every recording of an album is a musical event without farewell, and every song produced is an invitation to music friends. The album "Time Walking" which lasted for two years was published. Xu Wei said, "I'm going on my way!" . During the intermission of intensive publicity work, he devoted himself to creation and began to prepare his new works, still strolling in the endless music time.
★ Visual Xu Wei ★
Du Yingnan, a photographer who has lived in Britain for three years, is a wandering fellow traveler. If Xu Wei expresses his sense of life with music, then Du Yingnan is singing with the camera. Du Yingnan advocates real picture language, and restoring the true colors of life is also the common desire of people in this era. Du Yingnan's book Days in London records the black and white life he captured in England with simple words and real shots, and this style is consistent with that of Xu Wei. In Time Walking, Du Yingnan captured the truest Xu Wei, and his subtle eyes and devoted manner showed Xu Wei who had returned to life in front of Du Yingnan's camera. The shooting was completed in Beijing. In any scene, whether it is an underground passage or a light rail train, Du Yingnan used the camera language freely to make Xu Wei get the visual restoration in front of the camera. Han Lei, a photographer and designer, won a photography prize in the United States, and his series of works along the railway have great influence at home and abroad. Han Lei and Du Yingnan are good friends, and their spiritual exchange adds visual impact to the graphic design of Time Walking. When Xu Wei's record company distributed this album among the media, its photography and record design were highly praised, and some media even said that it was the most visually effective album cover they had seen in recent years. In particular, the album poster has won praises from overseas media in Beijing, and some reporters think it is a rare album poster with international standards in China.
★ State Xu Wei ★
From "Red Star" to "Artistic Style" and from "Two Days" to "One Day", Xu Wei has honed his music for more than ten years, and the joys and sorrows he experienced during this period have been condensed and refined in this album "Time Walking". In the past two years, Xu Wei has devoted himself to music creation. He has listened to a large number of music works with different styles, from environmental music to world music. Xu Wei believes that any form of music should be respected as long as the attitude of the creator is sincere. In recent years, he often draws nutrients from the profoundness of China folk music. No matter "Moonlit Night on a Spring River" or the folk songs arranged by Wang Luobin, they are all ways for him to refine his creative source from tradition and folk. Between Beijing and Xi 'an, Xu Wei lived his usual life. As before, he ran into a vagrant singer singing "Hometown" in the subway and quietly listened to others singing his own songs. His life is still so dull. He plays music alone or with his music friends, reads China's ancient books or watches DVD…… ... "Look at all the joys and sorrows and melt into the brilliant sunset".
★ change and unchanged ★
Xu Wei has changed. The ten works of Time Walking show the brightness, brilliance and joy he has never seen before. We can experience his softness and persistence from his changing musical colors. The loneliness, despair and sadness in the past can hardly be found in the lyrics, and they are replaced by simplicity and atmosphere. The change of Xu Wei is the fission of the crustal magma accumulated for many years, just like the fission of a person's life, which is silent and unforgettable. This kind of change needs you to savor it slowly, and find our own traces of time from his rhythmic melody over and over again.
Xu Wei has not changed.
He is still the persistent Xu Wei and uncompromising Xu Wei. Behind the brilliance, there is a hard soul. This soul is only waiting for music. In silence, he tells you that he is unchanged with changed music.

Album Introduction:
For friends who care about Chinese original music, the word "Xu Wei" is a "special brand": he pays homage to the past with melody, expresses his future with calmness, and his singing moves between his lips and teeth, which condenses into awe of life and gratitude for music. Many people say: We are looking forward to his works, rather, we are waiting for Xu Wei to give us a sense of life. It has been ten years since Xu Wei took his musical dream from Xi 'an to Beijing. In the past ten years, Xu Wei's music has always made great strides in its own way. It has been nearly three years since the last album Time Walk, and Xu Wei finally released his fourth original album, Every moment is brand new, on February 9th, in the expectation of everyone. Xu Wei himself admits that this full-creation album is the result of his hard work, which contains his joys and sorrows and undeniable self-change. Therefore, Xu Wei admits that this album is a link between the past and the future for both music and life, connecting his past and future with ours. As a new generation of spiritual leader in Chinese music, Xu Wei debuted for 11 years and experienced for 3 years. Xu Wei finally finished a brand-new album "Every moment is brand-new" which has been brewing for 3 years, with 11 songs to accompany you through this loneliest winter night. In this album, the little things in life described by Xu Wei are like watching the world in children's eyes, but those songs have always conveyed such a message-joy in hope, tolerance in strength. It is determined by the singer's attitude towards life after the ups and downs, and it is an optimistic and calm feeling like a light cloud. This is an album with the beauty of balance. Ten songs achieve harmony and unity between weight and lightness, urgency and slowness, and lightness and richness. Behind those notes is a normal heart of Xu Wei, who knows how rare it is to keep a normal heart in an era of materialistic desires? This album is a return to basics, which clearly shows that no matter how the times change and the environment changes, some things will not change. For Xu Wei, it always means such words-simplicity, kindness, purity, light, hope and sincerity-but in the album it just turns into the most direct behavior: singing with your heart.
For many people, music is only a small part of life, even insignificant, but for others, including us, music is an indispensable part of life. "Every moment is brand-new" is Xu Wei's own and ours. Like freedom and wisdom, it will eventually be shared by all pursuers, and its power in clarity and introspection will be long-lasting and warm.

album introduction: why does the process from despair to hope always have to experience so much loneliness and melancholy? So many wild and impetuous? Let Xu Wei, a traveler who travels through his own world, tell you the story of that year. Let's feel the power flowing in our hearts and the rhythm of a man's loneliness, confusion, falling and fragility ... The 11th anniversary of Red Star Music, one of the Taihe Wheat Field Collection Series, was a great contribution
In p>2111, Xu Wei's "That Year" was published. Xu Wei was very angry with the launch of this record, and thought it was extremely irresponsible to publish it without the singer's consent. And this record didn't do any publicity, which is another neglected work by Xu Wei.
Although Xu Wei was at the lowest ebb at that time and soon returned to Xi 'an, Xu Wei's music had changed in That Year. Not too angry, but show love in detail in order to get comfort from it. At the same time, he began to write some sunny travel works, such as September and Warmth. These have a connection with Sunshine Walking released in 2112.
After 2112, Xu Wei's music was led by the changes of his life, and was widely sought after and admired by university, music circle and media. Xu Wei's simple, simple and full of humanistic and ideal music, together with his living conditions, has been promoted to a very high position. When some talented musicians in the early days are in trouble and unable to extricate themselves, Xu Wei's continuous and consistent creation is even more precious.
My own opinion:
I really got to know Xu Wei's music last year. I just graduated from college, thinking that I was liberated and could do everything I wanted, but suddenly I found that everything was not as simple as I thought. Whether to work or continue to go to school seems to be the only two ways before me. I also found a lucrative job, but after working for two months, I found that I was drifting away from my ideal ... At this moment, I came into contact with Xu Wei's music and found that my state was strikingly similar to the feeling brought by his songs. Xu Wei's early works all contain words such as despair, loss, sadness, etc. After listening to them, I fell into a more confused state, but at the same time I felt a powerful force, as if there was hope in despair. After listening to his new album, I found that I couldn't keep up with his footsteps. Maybe I'm still the same as before, and Xu Wei is not the same as Xu Wei. I think most friends who like Xu Wei should prefer Elsewhere and That Year. These two albums should be more classic works in Chinese rock music. If you like it, I will send out the APE of Elsewhere. I hope you can also talk about Xu Wei in your eyes when posting.
