Nocturnes曳取

Top Hits Song Highlights Intro

Nocturnes are an Indie-Electronic band based in Beijing, China.
They are:
Weidu- vocals/lyrics
David - guitar/composition/production

The band was officially formed in late 2015 and in March 2016 they independently released their first EP album, A World Full of Adults, which included 5 songs.

A string of gigs in the Beijing area followed, culminating in their support of American Indie Rock band Surfer Blood at Yugong Yishan. Soon after, in October 2016, they signed to Chinese record label Cao Tai Music, and will release their new EP, Dust into Glory, at the end of the year.

Their sound has been described as a mix of "sensual overtones and airy elegant grace", where a sultry electronic rhythm section meshes with Indie Rock touches and atmospheric vocals. Combined with top-notch production values and unique vocals, Nocturnes' music is escapism, sounds which draw you deeply within their world. Their music has been described as “sultry”, “atmospheric” and “emotional”, and sits somewhere between the intensity of Foals, the electronic elements of Bonobo and the pop sensibilities of Coldplay. They are inspired by the night, existence and illusion, a post-90s worldview, growing up in a disaffected generation, secrets and desires, love and ego, silence and thrill, memory and hatred, the future and past. What you hear is what you get.
