WAN WEN veröffentlichen zu "In Course Of The Miraculous" ein 4x Vinyl Fotobuch

Die chinesischen Postrocker WAN WEN werden via Pelagic Records ein  4x Vinyl Fotobuch zu ihrer Scheibe "In Course Of The Miraculous" veröffentlichen. Die Scheibe kommt in Form von vier 10"-EPs, verpackt in einem 55-seitigem Buch. Musikalisch handelt es sich um einen gut einstündigen Soundtrack. 

Cheng Ran approached Wang Wen to provide the soundtrack to a nine hour film he was creating, and the band pushed themselves to the limits of their creativity when recording that soundtrack. The results, entitled In Course of the Miraculous will be released on 4 separate vinyl EPs, packaged into a 55 - pages photo art book, and a DVD documenting the live performance and recording process. The 30 x 26 cm photo book comes with a leather binding and screw joints.

The original soundtrack was recorded inside an enormous warehouse which had been artificially flooded, and the band performed on a platform “island”. Xie Yugang of Wang Wen described the recording as “something we have always dreamt about doing.”

Wang Wen hail from Dalian, China and have been together for 17 years, releasing eight albums to date. The band were one of the first to have their albums released on vinyl in their home country and have been both pioneering and unwavering in their commitment to never compromise on their sound. The band have shared stages with the likes of Mono and Mogwai, and are continuously seeking out opportunities to take their experimental attitude to a wider artistic audience.
