About Wu Feng Ling

Wu Feng Ling is a 4-piece rock band based in Kuala Lumpur. They formed in early 2004 and within a short period of time were gigging regularly. They started their appearance in local pub and cafe scene. One of their regular and favorite music venue is Wow Wow Rock Cafe, KL.

Wu Feng Ling is Hong Eng Kong, more popularly known as Bot, lead vocals and guitars, Sam Chong, vocals and lead guitars, Chuan-Looi, bass and Jerry Soon, drums. They have a very distinct image on stage. Though they dress in t-shirts and jeans but their energetic and emotive music have earned them a respectful reputation in local underground and indie music scene. Wu Feng Ling front-man, Bot is often described as chinese Kurt Cobain.

Their influences include Nirvana, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Muse, and Peter Pan.

As a band, they were often asked to play covers. They didn't want to be a cover band and were determined to play their own music. In late 2004, they start to write their own compositions and re-do some of their written materials. They even want to produce their own album. It wasn't until November, 2005 that Dennix Yeow offered collaboration and his recording studio facilities at Avenue 1 music studio.

Their initial dream was finally fulfilled. The band worked more intensely and passionately to complete their first debut album. This album, self-produced and self-funded, is still in progress and due to launch in the last quarter of 2007.

Their music and lyrics are best expressed as hopes, dreams, desires and frustrations inside them. Its about showing people that there are things inside that should be exposed or expressed, and having no shame about them. I just write what I feel. I just sing it as natural as I can. But its not necessary everyone will like it., as Bot explains the experiences he had in life and also what he learnt from his time as a band. Its also about believing in something they love doing and fulfilling the things they really want to do.

这是一张DIY专辑。从词曲创作,编曲,录音,团体造型,封面拍摄等等的工作都由4位团员一手包办。“我们MV就已花了2万令吉来拍摄,如果要计算整张专辑的制作费用,肯定超过5万令吉!”主音Bot说道。乌风铃成军7年,鼓手Jerry是2004年加入的成员。多年来活跃于本地独立音乐领域,曾为多位歌手当现场伴奏。乐团陆陆续续发表创作,希望有朝一日拥有本身的专辑,13岁开始写歌玩音乐的主音Bot,自拉曼学院新闻系毕业以后,便往录音师的道路前进,如此安排无非想亲手制作属于自己的音乐作品专辑。

幸运的是,乌风铃4位团员各自的专业带给这张专辑很大的方便。主音Bot是录音师,词曲创作,编曲,混音,录音制作就是他日常的工作,曾合作的对象包括叶俊岑、梁佑诚、钟盛忠、宇珩、李吉汉、曾国辉、张觉隆、jerry&温胜光等等,制作专辑对他来说可谓驾轻就熟,只是现在分别在于录制自己的创作。鼓手Jerry是网页设计师,吉他手Sam则是平面设计师,贝斯手Chuan亦是摄影师,这张专辑可谓集合4位团员多项才华的成品!此外,人缘极佳的他们,当然少不了各方好友拔刀相助和鼎力支持!

专辑收录10首原创作品,摇滚与抒情歌曲参半,包括主打歌曲<<等>>,<<风铃>>、<< 无聊人>、<<我相信>>、<<再见朋友>>、<<你还是一个人>>、 <<不能了解>、<<目光>>、<<晴天>>,以及一首由马来乐团Leon吉他手 Warez填词的马来歌曲<<Keliru>>。

《 等 》 是這張专辑的主打歌曲, 也是整張专辑的主要概念 。對於乌风铃,由一開始接觸音樂至今天,最讓他們感覺疲憊的就是漫長的等待。而,要將這種艱辛又期待的感覺完全表達出來真的很複雜。所以寫了這首歌把等待的感覺,以等待一個人的方式將情緒一一述説。“尤其是副歌的部分可以聽到重復又重復的‘誰讓我忘了時辰,誰讓我忘了歲月不留人’的幾句歌詞,為的就是想讓聼者明白,等待其實就是重復又重復的做着一些不知道結果的事” 同時,這張《等》也是乌风铃等待已久的,所以用《等》做為主題真的最適當不過了。

宇珩友情跨刀,献声又献艺!

乌风铃团员和本地才女宇珩可说是老友鬼鬼,打造宇珩两张专辑分别是《依然是朋友》和《宇珩Real创作集》的封面彩照,其“幕后黑手”正是乌风铃贝斯手——Chuan!此外,主音Bot与宇珩皆来自彭亨文冬,中学时期已经认识,同样热爱创作加上又是同乡,之间相同的频率和默契,火花不点自燃!

这一次,换作乌风铃发片啦!重情重义的宇珩为好友跨刀,除了献出一双巧手 以钢琴为Bot伴奏《我相信》,更随着Bot化身“无聊人”,无无聊聊吹海风,无无聊聊看电影,一改以往温柔可爱形象,在乌风铃的摇滚世界尽情放肆,自然轻松!

只有无聊的人才能写出无聊的歌,《无聊人》词-Bot一心一意想当无聊的人,因为他认为,有闲情享受无聊的人才是世界上最幸福的人!“我们4人平时都有自己的专业岗位,我是录音师,Chuan是摄影师,有自己的Studio要经营,而鼓手Jerry是网页设计师,吉他手Sam则是平面设计师,很多时候我们都很忙,忙得错过身边许多美好的事物,因此我们都很珍惜在一起玩音乐的时光。都市的生活节奏非常快,无所事事的时间变得很奢侈,我很需要时间来‘无聊’,无聊对我来说是一种休息和沉淀的意义,不一定要刻意做些什么或想些什么,即使坐着发呆也珍贵!有时不想出门,朋友打电话来我会告诉对方我很忙,其实我在忙着无聊!哈哈!”
