Senzu

New experimental sounds from this Beijing based musician

thruoutin has returned with a new single that’s part of Senzu Collective’s compilation project. The song channels an ancient Chinese history in search of deeply buried treasure, lulling you into a meditative state as it carries on. Read on for more information regarding the compilation + the meaning behind 八宝坑.

p.s. The song’s available for “name your price” which technically means free, but if you’d like to throw the artist a few coins knock yourself out!

More on the song itself:

This song is called 八宝坑 which literally translates into English as ‘Eight Treasure Pit’.  It is a hutong or small alleyway in Beijing where the material and recordings for the song were made. Legend has it that during the Qing Dynasty  someone accidentally buried treasure underneath brick tiles in a deep pit somewhere in the hutong and this is where the name originates from.
