为了预先迎接他们与日本的另类摇滚老将The Novembers举办的「Round Trip」迷你巡演，TYNT今年将发行第三首单曲《Blue Moon》。这首歌曲邀请了The Novembers的主唱小林祐介参与合唱，以一首只能用黑暗电子情歌来形容的曲目呈现。

为了纪念与日本另类摇滚老将合作，「Blue Moon」的编曲展现了TYNT回归到他们原本的风格，将充满情感的合成器声音与工业音效形成对比，营做出时而充满希望，时而令人不寒而栗的旋律。这首歌曲讲述了一段痴迷和扭曲的关系，整个曲目的进展可以说是一段堕入黑暗的旅程。

光明与黑暗之间的对比对于这两个乐团来说都很熟悉，尤其是对于The Novembers。自2007年以来，The Novembers的专辑结合了迷幻摇滚的特色，并融入了更加黑暗和激进的哥特摇滚和后硬核音调，拥有广阔而多变的声音，同时又让人联想到当时许多不同的音乐影响。

这次乐团还有幸邀请由日本设计师/艺术家Atsushi_Y设计是次单曲封面。Atsushi曾为多位日本音乐艺术家和音乐节设计海报和封面，他以简单而引人注目的抽象形式为这首歌曲增添了黑暗和不祥的感觉。他运用鲜艳的色彩和流动的质感吸引你的目光，复古的美学则增添了一种熟悉的神秘感。

这次TYNT 和 The Novembers 的 「Round Trip」迷你巡演， 将于八月六号从香港启程， 继而于八月十四号在东京闭幕，为这两个城市的乐迷带来两场充满情感的另类摇滚体验。



In anticipation for their upcoming ‘round trip’ mini tour with The Novembers(JP) , ‘Blue Moon’ will be TYNT’s third single release this year , featuring vocalist Yusuke Kobayashi (The Novembers) in a track that can only be described as a dark electronic serenade.

In honor of collaborating with the Japanese alt-rock veterans , the arrangement of ‘Blue Moon’ shows TYNT returning to some of their original roots, contrasting layers of emotive synths with industrial sounds, playing with melodies that are at times hopeful, and at times haunting. Telling a story of obsessive and twisted relationships, the song’s progression is essentially a descent into darkness. The contrast between light and dark is something that is familiar to both bands , especially for the Novembers, whose discography since 2007, have been combining aspects of shoegaze with darker more aggressive tones of gothic rock and post-hardcore, and having a wide expansive sound that is as ever changing as it is reminiscent of the many different influences of the time.


The band also has the honor of having Japan based designer/artist Atsushi_Y design the single cover. Atsushi, who has designed posters and covers for various Japanese music artists and festivals,  compliments the song’s dark and ominous feeling with a simple yet striking abstract form, drawing you in with its vibrant color and fluid texture, the vintage aesthetic giving an added sense of familiar mystery.

简介：

「我走得如此远，进入一个毫无意义的地方，但你知道我仍然需要你。」这种失去爱和缠绵欲望的情感，是TYNT最新单曲《FLAME》的推动力。在今年早些时候发行《EVEREST》之后，《FLAME》是他们首次与特邀嘉宾合作的曲目，标志着乐队的另一个新里程碑。这次的合作对象是台湾音乐家MANDARK（I Mean Us，Sweet John），这首歌将证明是乐队迄今最引人入胜且最易入耳的单曲之一。
在2019年的香港Detuned音乐节上首次相遇，MANDARK将贡献她的空灵嗓音来衬托TYNT的合成音乐和感人旋律，共同讲述一个充满热情的情感故事，拒绝熄灭。将80年代DISCO的节奏元素与合成器浪潮的音乐结合，《FLAME》是一首令你翩翩起舞的舞曲，既复古又有未来感，捕捉你注意力的赛博朋克情歌。

带着甜蜜的热情和持续的动感。
这首歌除了有MANDARK为其添加色彩之外，TYNT还有幸邀请到日本插画家/漫画家 TSUNOGAI 为《FLAME》设计封面。TSUNOGAI在享有盛誉的手冢制作公司（由手冢治处创办，是《铁臂阿童木》、《白狮子金剑》、《黑杰克》等作品的作者）担任漫画家，其作品受到60年代/70年代的古典昭和漫画风格的强烈影响，融入关岛的热带风景和Y2K文化。他以当代风格诠释熟悉而永恒的角色，与《FLAME》的复古但赛博美学相得益彰，在旧有的事物中捕捉到年轻和充满灵魂的精华。
《FLAME》将于2023年5月中旬发行，将你带入一种恍惚的状态。


‘I’m going so far into this place that makes no sense , but you know that I still need you.’ This sentiment of love lost and lingering desire , is the driving force behind TYNT’s latest single ‘FLAME’. Following their release of ‘EVEREST’ earlier this year , ‘FLAME’ marks another new milestone for the band, being their first track to feature a guest artist. In collaboration with Taiwanese artist MANDARK (I Mean Us , Sweet John), this track will prove to be one of the band’s most gripping and catchiest singles to date.

First crossing paths in Detuned Festival 2019 in Hong Kong , MANDARK will be lending her ethereal voice to compliment TYNT’s synthy sounds and emotive melodies, coming together to tell a story of burning feelings that refuse to go out. Combining rhythmic elements from 80s disco with synthwave influenced sounds, ‘FLAME’ is a dancey number that is both retro and futuristic, a cyberpunk love ballad that captures your attention with 
 sweet passion and constant motion. 

In addition to MANDARK’s feature, TYNT also has the honor of having Japanese illustrator and magna artist TSUNOGAI to design FLAME’s cover art. Working as a manga artist at the revered Tezuka Productions (founded by Osama Tezuka, author of Astro Boy, Kimba the White Lion, Blackjack etc.), TSUNOGAI’s work is strongly influenced by the vintage Showa manga style of the 60s/70s, incorporating the tropical scenery of Guam as well as Y2K culture into his imagery. Portraying familiar and timeless characters with a contemporary twist , TSUNOGAI’s work is a fitting match for FLAME’s retro yet cyber aesthetic, capturing a youthful and soulful essence within something old.

FLAME will be released in mid-May 2023 , pulling you into a trance, and igniting your fiery spirit.
