New Yee. editorial just landed - sit down with SEIRYŪ, long-time CIPHER member and one of Hong Kong’s hypnotic selectors.

From his UK upbringing soaked in New Order, Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark, and post-punk vibes, to discovering the raw relatability of UK hip hop through Skinnyman’s Council Estate of Mind, Seiryū opens up about the sounds that shaped him. He takes us back to that pivotal 2011 Peckham rave (“with a bloke and his dildo” - you’ll have to read it), and how the gloomy British weather drew him toward Burial’s atmospheric resonance and post-rock warmth that still comforts him today.

He also reflects on the birth and evolution of CIPHER under Finsent C’s vision, the shift into hypnotic techno around 2014/2015, and the mindset he brings behind the decks. 

All this ahead of his special Yee. presents _ set on @hkcronline .

The full interview with exclusive photos is right here in this post. 

全新 Yee. editorial 登場!同長年 CIPHER 成員、hypnotic techno 代表 SEIRYŪ 深入傾偈 🔥

由細喺英國長大,屋企成日播 New Order 同 Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark 等 post-punk 同 synthpop,到後來愛上 Skinnyman《Council Estate of Mind》嗰種真實又貼地嘅 UK hip hop 歌詞,Seiryū 同大家分享一路以來塑造佢音樂品味嘅經歷。佢仲回憶起 2011 年 Peckham rave 嗰個啟蒙時刻(「同一個 bloke 同佢個 dildo」——要睇全文先知),同埋英國陰沉天氣點樣令佢鍾意 Burial 嗰種充滿共鳴嘅氛圍,同 post-rock 帶嚟嘅溫暖感覺。

另外,佢亦講到 CIPHER 由 Finsent C 發起嘅故事、2014/2015 年轉向 hypnotic techno 嘅轉變,同埋自己對音樂同 DJing 嘅態度同想法。即將喺 Yee. presents _ @ HKCR 嘅演出,又會帶嚟乜嘢火花?
