ULTRAVIOLET
3LAU说:“《Ultraviolet》是我第一次走出舒适区。我想通过真实乐器增加深度,升级我原本的旋律屋风格。专辑中的每一首歌都有有机质感,因为每首歌最初都是用真实乐器(钢琴、吉他、鼓)创作的。每张专辑结合了梦幻人声和合成流行制作,创造出带有现代扭曲的怀旧音景。在制作这张专辑时,我受到了我的偶像M83、Radiohead和Sigur Ros的强烈影响。我希望这张专辑能引起新老听众的共鸣,因为它在从头到尾的过程中触及了黑暗和愉悦的情感。” 3LAU是多个影响力非营利组织的坚定倡导者。他的职业生涯建立在帮助他人的目标上,而非追求名声。他于2016年推出了Blume Records,这是一家独立厂牌,采用开创性的模式,利用流媒体收入支持慈善事业。在《Ultraviolet》发布之际,3LAU与他深感珍视的非营利组织FCancer合作,通过流媒体的所有收入都将捐赠给这个事业。 “Ultraviolet is the first time I’ve stepped out of my comfort zone. I wanted to upgrade my original melodic house style by adding depth through real instrumentation. Every song on the album has organic texture, as every song was originally written on a real instrument (piano, guitar, drums). Each record combines dreamy vocals and synth-pop production to create a nostalgic sonic landscape with a contemporary twist. I was heavily influenced by my heros, M83, Radiohead and Sigur Ros when making this album. I hope that the album will resonate with both new & veteran listeners, as it taps into both dark & euphoric emotions as the album progresses from start to finish.” – Says 3LAU 3LAU is a dedicated advocate for a number of impactful non-profits. He has built his career on the goal of helping others, not fame. He launched Blume Records in 2016, his independent label, which has a ground-breaking model that harnesses the power of streaming money for charitable causes. In conjunction with the release of Ultraviolet, 3LAU is aligning with FCancer, a nonprofit he holds dear to his heart, and all money raised through the streaming of his album will be donated to the cause.
