C54 pro tape with purple hub, limited to 100 copies, hand-numbered, with sticker.

王子衡与若潭的一次偶然合作，一個“遠程即興”計劃。身在北京和巴黎的兩個人，在地下通道、廢棄的高架橋下和環城路進行實地錄音与演奏，錄音時雙方并不知道對方將會錄下什麽。記錄下這些聲音后，將它們進行隨意的拼貼，最后選擇了4首成為了這個出品。包含噪音、自由爵士和實地錄音，互相混雜交融，是北京和巴黎的夜晚最直接的聲音。

These recordings are from an accidental collaboration between Wang Ziheng and ruò tán, an "improvisation in distance" project. Two persons in two different cities, recorded sounds from Beijing and Paris, then collage randomly, they were not aware of the sounds of each other when they did their own recordings.

Wang Ziheng's part are recorded at:
underpass near Sanyuan bridge & an abandoned viaduct near east 4th ring road of Beijing, October 2015

ruò tán's part are recorded at:
underpass near the ring road of southeast Paris, April - October 2015

mixed & mastered by ruò tán, October 2015
