СОЮЗ = Soyuz - II

Jazz, Funk

fRUITY-Pick: Тизита = Tezeta

Label: Mr Bongo

今天上海天氣終於好了起來，店裡也應景的上了一牆 Mr Bongo 的新貨。果然引來不少愛好者們。下午時分，來了一位會主動交流的外國友人。他介紹到自己週末會在EXIT演出。翻找聊天之間我們的注意力來到了Mr Bongo的新貨上。突然，他翻到了一張Bongo出版的白俄羅斯樂隊 СОЮЗ（Soyuz）的第二張專輯激動的說這是我朋友出的（也不是不可能）。СОЮЗ的 Force Of The Wind 確實是一張不可多得的好唱片。於是我順勢指了指牆上擺放的Bongo 新再版的СОЮЗ - II。順勢遞給了他，他滿臉驚訝看著唱片，翻過面指了指 A2 說這首歌我錄的（怎麼可能‼️）全場都驚了。我和阿正四目相對， What？於是就有了視頻裡現場 Rap 的珍貴錄影。

那首歌的名字叫 Тизита（Tezeta）意為記憶、懷舊。

The weather in Shanghai finally got better today, and the shop followed up the sun and filled the wall with all Mr Bongo’s new arrivals. Sure enough, it attracted a lot of fans. In the afternoon, a friendly foreigner came to talk to us. He introduced himself and said he came to Shanghai for a show at EXIT. Between looking around and chatting, our attention came to Mr Bongo‘s new arrivals. All of a sudden, he came across a copy of the second album by Belarusian band СОЮЗ (Soyuz) and excitedly said that it was my friend’s (not impossible). СОЮЗ‘s Force Of The Wind was a really good record. I pointed out the new Bongo reissue of СОЮЗ - II (first released in 2019) on the wall and handed it to him, he looked at the record with surprise, turned it over and pointed to A2, said I recorded it (how is that possible?) The whole place was like ”REALLY?“, and that led to the ”rare footage“ of him rapping along the song. 

The name of the song is Тизита (Tezeta) which means memory, nostalgia.

Patti Smith – Horses

Art Rock

fRUITY-PICK: Kimberly

Label: Arista Records

Patti Smith的专辑 “Horses” 模糊了朋克和诗歌之间的界限，这张专辑的歌词带有垮掉派诗歌的能量和法国诗人亚瑟·兰波（Arthur Rimbaud）的“革命精神”，熟悉Patti的朋友会知道兰波是对她有重要影响的人之一。Patti 在 “Horses” 中借鉴了不同的灵感来源，有些歌是自传性的，有些则植根于梦境和奇幻场景。Patti让歌曲主角的性别含糊不清，她说这种风格选择是向琼·贝兹（Joan Baez）学习的，琼·贝兹经常演唱具有男性观点的歌曲。同时这是一种宣言，作为一名艺术家，她可以采取任何想要的立场，任何声音，当然也包括任何形象。封面黑白的处理和“雌雄”同体的姿势与当时女歌手的典型宣传形象背道而驰，Arista的高管们想对照片进行各种修改，但Patti否决了他们的建议。这张照片后来也成为了历史上最伟大的女性照片之一，代表了女性凝视逆转的开创性时刻，这也是Patti的“挚友”罗伯特为她拍摄的。故事太多，无法一一细说，感谢Patti的一切坚持。

“Horses” by Patti Smith that deliberately blurred the lines between punk and poetry. The album‘s lyrics recalled the energy of Beat poetry and the “revolutionary spirit” of French poet Arthur Rimbaud, one of Smith’s primary influences.  Smith drew on different sources of lyrical inspiration on Horses, with some songs being autobiographical and others being rooted in dreams and fantastical scenarios. She left the genders of the songs‘ protagonists ambiguous, a stylistic choice she said was “learnt from Joan Baez, who often sang songs that had a male point of view”, while also serving as a declaration “that as an artist, I can take any position, any voice, that I want.” The black-and-white treatment and androgynous pose were a departure from the typical promotional images of female singers of the time. This photo is one of the greatest pictures ever taken of a woman and represents a seminal moment in the reversal of the female gaze. It was also taken for Patti by her “best friend” Robert. Thank you Patti for everything.

毫无疑问，在搬到长乐路之后进店的客人纷繁复杂，大大小小的人都有，你永远不知道下一秒，或者正在那里翻唱片的人是谁，是干什么的。

但有一位绝对是目前最特殊的，在前天来店里之后，就在店里安顿下来了，它悄无声息的出现，并且无可奈何的留下。至今也不知道为什么它要找什么唱片，我猜可能是偏流动感觉的那种类型，不像与其他客人交流时的轻松，这位明显更困难。

也欢迎大家有空来店和这位顾客交流，在弄明白它想要什么唱片之前，就先住下吧！

There‘s no doubt that the customers who have come into the shop are varied, large and small, and you never know who that person is, flipping through the crates. 

However, there was one that was definitely the most special by far, settling in the store after coming in the day before yesterday, it appeared silently and stayed gradually. To this day I still don’t know what records it looking for, I‘m guessing it might leans towards the sensational type, unlike the ease that interacting with the other clients, this one was significantly more difficult.

Feel free to stop by the store and talk to this customer.

The Mohawks – The Champ

Breaks

fRUITY-Pick: The Champ

Label: Pama Records

这几天的温度特别高，随着周末在广州和上海的两场水果律动，还有来自北京和东莞的果友再临，所以一般我会做公车去学校。

即使是像98先生这样的，每天只睡6小时的工作狂，也有点顶不住如此高的温度了，所以适时的调整放松是十分必要的，此时此刻，有点想吃羊肉串。

周六晚碰到店里另一位果友，出去玩了大半个月的搓碟哥，前几天刚刚从国外回来，买了三十公斤的中文黑胶唱片。隐藏在70/80/90年代的中文律动的魅力是不可名状的，就像巴西、牙买加，埃塞俄比亚、埃及等地区的音乐风格，听到这种地域的声音，有时候就像是带你的耳朵去那里旅游一样。而我有一根铅笔。

The temperature is particularly high these days, with the two Fruity Groove in Guangzhou and Shanghai over the weekend, and the friends from Beijing and Dongguan, so usually I go to school by bus.

Even workaholics like TA98, who usually sleeps 6 hours a day, can‘t handle such high temperatures, so relaxation is necessary, and at this exact moment, I’m want some lamb kebabs.

On Saturday night, I ran into another friend, a disc jockey who had been out for half a month and had just come back from abroad, having bought 30 kilograms of Chinese records. The charm of Chinese groove hidden in the 70‘s/80’s/90‘s is uncanny, just like the music from Brazil, Jamaica, Ethiopia, Egypt, etc. Hearing the sounds of such regions is like taking your ears on a trip there. And I have a pencil.

昨晚到今天，有几位来店里的客人仿佛是天使。有一位到店里第一件事是询问有没有喝的，鉴于朝日和柠檬茶都喝完的情况下，给了他一罐麒麟。之后他便开启了他的“挖掘”之旅，而且在试听的时候坚持听完整首，并不希望很快的给他跳跃。与今天的一位客人很像，来店里对存放三盲鼠的箱子仔细观察，从内页到侧标再到品相。还有一位阿姆斯特丹的小哥，操着一口感觉是刚学的中文，问我有没有中东律动系的唱片，然后自己挑了一大堆日爵在试听台那边摇头晃脑。时间，仿佛在看到他们的那些举动时，停止了。听着他们试听的那些唱片，就连长乐路上的马路噪音也没有了。

Last night and today, there were a few visitors to the store who seemed just like angels. One of them asked for a drink first thing he step in the shop and we were ran out of Asahi and Lemon Tea, so we gave him a Kirin. After that, he started his ”digging“ journey, and insisted on listening to the whole song during the demo, not wanting to jump ahead quickly. Much like one of today’s customers, who came into the store to look for Three Blind Mice, from the inserts to the side labels to the quality. And then there‘s a guy from Amsterdam who, in what feels like newly-learned Chinese, asks me if I have any Middle Eastern groove records, and then picks out a whole bunch of Japanese Jazz for himself and shakes his head over at the listening deck. Time seemed to stop when I saw their moves and feelings. Listening to the records they picked, even the road noise on Changle Road was gone.
