16mi​​ns 的MV "XXRR熙熙攘攘" － Winner of MusicDish*China 的MV比賽

MusicDish 前陣子的MV比賽，當初也沒想那麼多就把熙熙攘攘的鏈接寄給他們，沒想到就收到一封來自紐約的信告訴我們進入前三名了，然後今天收到Musicdish的通知，這是文章的連結 我大概翻譯了一下。


The word "independent (underground) music" first appeared in China almost two decades ago. Without doubt, Beijing, the capital of China, is a nest for some of the most pioneering and vibrant indie music. What is it like to be the only -child generation, facing a world of change and uncertainty? Beijing based indie rock band 16mins (16分鐘) music video "XXRR (熙熙攘攘)" says it all. Set through Beijing's subways and major roadways, the juxtaposition sequence of personal experience with the public space reflects a critical background of cultural and political dimensions of post-socialist generation. The fragment of personal encounter with a mixture of unsettling feeling of contraction serve as the core subject throughout the music video. Dazed and confused, the musician, as an isolated subject in the neon city embodies a strong sense of insecurity. ShanShan

Experimental indie band 16 mins' new video "XXRR" stretches the musical boundaries to the max. Filmed in Beijing, one really interesting thing about the video is that it focuses on motion in many forms -- cars on the highway, people walking, buses , stairs, and escalators. The lead singer seems to be unable to find her way to the place she wants to be, and she appears to be in a sea of​​ people and yet all alone. The lyrical melody is sung very softly in what seem to be maneuvered acoustics, which adds an interesting element to the song. "XXRR" is definitely a video that viewers will talk about as it leaves a lot open to interpretation and some creative mental gymnastics.

獨立（地下）音樂這個形容詞最早是在幾乎二十年前第一次出現在中國。而北京作為中國的首都，毫無疑問的是許多最先鋒實驗獨立音樂的家。而作為獨生子女一代的中國人又是如何看待這快速改變並充滿不確定性的時代？北京的獨立搖滾樂隊16mins(十六分鐘)的MV "XXRR熙熙攘攘" 很好的呈現出來這種感覺。以北京地鐵和高樓大廈為背景，女主角在影片中反應出了在後社會主義文化和政治的衝擊改變。混淆，迷惑的音樂讓人對在巨大城市的不安全感產生共鳴。

實驗獨立樂隊16分鐘的最新視頻“熙熙攘攘”將音樂的界限擴展到最大程度。這支MV在北京拍攝，有趣的是鏡頭捕捉了很多形式的移動，比如高速公路上得汽車，行走的人，公車，階梯，和電梯。主唱似乎無法找到她想去得地方，她身處人群中卻依然寂寞。抒情的旋律配以處理過得音效為歌曲增添了一些有意思的元素。 ”XXRR熙熙攘攘“ 絕對會帶給觀眾許多的想像空間
