Ursula's Crow We are locked in the Now and yet, somehow, other realities bleed into our own. Rayson's music brilliantly catches the strangeness of our situation. Favorite track: His Master's Voice.

about

WORLD ON A WIRE is the third solo album produced by Rayson He.

Symphonic, cinematic, electronic, experimental, ambient, psychedelic, minimalism, electro-acoustic, environmental, etc. The deconstruction of classical music; The experimentation of orchestral performance; The pioneering exploration of electronic music and environmental sounds… … Various genres are blended here, connecting the past with the future, challenging the aesthetics, and broadening the boundaries of music and auditory art .

The name of the album comes from the classic film “Welt am Draht” (directed by German director Rainer Werner Maria Fassbinder in 1973), and the titles of the ten tracks correspond to ten literary books, respectively:

Franz Kafka's IN THE PENAL COLONY

Ricardo Piglia's ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION

John le Carre's THE PIGEON TUNNEL

Friedrich Dürrenmatt's THE PHYSICISTS

Joseph Conrad's HEART OF DARKNESS

Shen Fu's SIX RECORDS OF A FLOATING LIFE

Stanisław Lem's HIS MASTER'S VOICE

José Eduardo Agualusa's A GENERAL THEORY OF OBLIVION

Arthur Schnitzler's THE DEAD ARE SILENT

Roberto Bolaño's THE UNKNOWN UNIVERSITY

In addition, apart from the corresponding textual connotations of the tracks, the album also implies the shocking events and sorrowful disasters that have happened in the world in recent years. It is a kind of record and accusation of the current human society.
