| 如果說每一個抉擇都將開啟一段截然不同的未來，那麼能夠一路漂漂亮亮地走到這裡，肯定也是一種才華。 “If every choice will unfold itself to a different reality, then getting to where I am must be some kind of talent.” 「TALENT」作為 The Crane 的第一張專輯，是一幅此刻原真的靜態截圖，也是集其28年成長歲月的奇幻錄像。飛行過程像是潛入他意外夢見的過往，時序偶有人工動刀的跡象；若感覺一氣呵成，則並非偶然，天秤座愛面子，方方面面皆是精雕細琢。偶遇亂流波盪、風景變換之處，則是內心實話浮現的詞句。 As The Crane’s first album, TALENT is a faithful capture of his current status, also a magical culmination of 28 years living. The album feels like stepping into his memory lane by accident, but maybe it’s not. It’s definitely not a coincidence that the listening experience feels “natural”, that’s what perfection-seeking Libras love to do. When you feel the turbulence, the change in the music, those are the unfiltered thoughts that came to The Crane’s mind. 「TALENT」也是氣宇軒昂的宣告之作，有細節斐然的復古曲目「Natural Ability」，以扎實的器樂致敬七零年代靈魂樂；有與 ØZI 合作的殘暴屠龍之歌「The Dragon Song」，氣焰逼人、實則為兄弟打鬧；也有「不介意」這樣漫不經心的時髦情歌，表情不怎麼樣，心裡早就愛得死去活來。 TALENT is also a statement piece, with “Natural Ability” filled with nostalgia and talented instrumentalists on the track, the track pays tribute to The Crane’s beloved Soul Music in the seventies. The collaboration track with ØZI “The Dragon Song”, while sounding braggadocious, turns out to be just brothers having fun. There’s also chic love songs like “Don’t Mind” for you to pretend you don’t care, even if you're already in love. The Crane 一如往常地包辦音樂製作，也幾乎編寫了全部曲目。不同的是這張專輯多了許多真實樂器的錄製，更邀請落日飛車的貝斯手弘禮、熱帶浪漫鼓手雷擎、JADE 的吉他手魯綱宇、Karencici 的製作人kvn等人，分別在不同曲目跨刀演奏，將 The Crane 的音樂又抬升到了新的雲層。 The Crane finished everything from writing to production as usual in this album, the difference is in trying to capture more live instruments in the studio this time, inviting bassist Hung-Li from Sunset Rollercoaster, drummer L8ching, guitarist Kyle Lu from JADE, kvn the producer of Karencici, showing their talents on different tracks, elevating The Cranes music to another level. 「如果一切的經歷都是為了讓我走到這，早知道用飛的」但後悔的心情讓人不再犯錯，先唱衰自己再讓別人看得起你，我偏不要，連這篇專輯介紹都是自己寫的？？這場驚人的內心戲，一步步都是險棋，卻準備對你的癢處一路暴擊。 The Crane refuses to stick himself to a genre he’s already known for, walking on a tightrope while treading new musical territories. He’s never playing the “be humble just to likable” game, always aiming at what you are yearning to listen to, and giving you the headshot. |
