Phototaxis

以色列特拉维夫的灵魂电子乐队Phototaxis（趋光性），歌如其名，一直在寻光。然而，并不是每次都那么幸运。歌词把我们带回了古代的诗词歌赋中。无论是迷茫还是烦恼，总是能在它们的歌词里找到黑暗里的那一束光。我们独树一帜的把充满神秘和催眠感的灵魂乐声音（Yael Feldinger）和充满创造力的现代电子乐声音（Itai Tsuk）融合在了一起，打造出一种独特而精彩的“原始－现代”组合。Phototaxis的音乐有一种难以琢磨的魅力，会让你有坠入爱河的感受。 Phototaxis最擅长表达自我的方式便是写歌。他们把自己暴露在黑暗的房间中，涂上鲜艳的颜色。Neverlander是乐队出道八年来发行的第四张专辑，也是他们离光最近的一次。整张专辑的制作，从歌曲到美工到字体，打破了质朴和沉闷，达到了极致的纯粹。Neverlander中的每一个元素都表达了纯粹，力量和简洁。整张专辑每首歌都讲述了一个独立的故事，把你从野外带到喧闹再带到悬疑惊悚的氛围。作品的构思及其流畅有创意，适合跳舞。美工也很抽象和现代。化繁为简。 Neverlander讲述的故事发生在一个奇特的世界，这个地方的人类失去了意识。这是一个沉迷于肤浅的爱和虚伪的感受的世界，一个按钮就可以启动或者关闭这些情绪。再无其他。每个人都行尸走肉的活着，等待着末日的审判。但是在他们其中，有一个特殊的人类。 Neverlander的主打歌和整张专辑的作者们都是不因循守旧的人，这张专辑是写给那些忠实于内心的人。Neverlander反映出了一个充斥着虚伪感情和冰冷机器的世界，与我们现实世界背道而驰。 （原文）Tel Aviv based electro-soul 6piece band Phototaxis, is always seeking for the light in their compositions. However, it can’t always be found. The lyrics remind of poems and stories from old times. Confusing and irritating some times but there is always a whole world drawn to every sentence and a spark of light even in the darkest places. We stand out the unique connection between a soul artist with a mysterious and hypnotising voice (Yael Feldinger) and a fine electronic music creator with an up to date sound (Itai Tsuk), creates a fascinating combination of rough sound with club feelings. Phototaxis corresponds with up to date currents and produce that elusive thing that will make you fall in love. PHOTOTAXIS can't do nothing else but write music, which takes them to the most intimate inner-self. They exposed themselves to the darkest rooms and lit them up with furious colours. NEVERLANDER is the fourth Album the band releases over eight years and one who knows them all would feel that they moved towards the light themselves throughout this project. The whole album, from each track to the artwork and the fonts has gained a special clarity; they broke with modesty and cloudiness. The message of NEVERLANDER is clear, powerful and straightforward through each element of the album.  Each track tells a story and the atmosphere brings versatility in music that carries you through wild, loud rides and fragile mysterious thrillers. The compositions and arrangements are ingenious and yet fluent and danceable. The artwork is minimalistic and modern. Sometimes less is more. The story of NEVERLANDER takes place in a world where human lost their minds. It takes place in a world where addiction to shallow gestures of love and sniffing fake feelings of togetherness became a click of a button. Nothing more. Everybody tamed to feel bored and judgmental in their cube of smoke. But within all this, there is a special breed of people. The title track and the Album NEVERLANDER were written in awe of those around us who do not bend to society's conformism. It was written and is performed for those who stay true to their own inner guidance. NEVERLANDER reflects authenticity in a world filled with plastic and self-rating machines, a calm being among all of us love seekers, approval suckers.
