　　FM3, one of China’s most progressive sound art groups, with their latest release, “Hou Guan Yin” marks the rise of a new Chinese sonic art form.
　　The “Buddha Machine” is their phenomenal release that breaks down the limits of music format. Teaming up with legendary Chinese rock singer/musician Dou Wei in their latest release “Hou Guan Yin”, once again they go beyond the boundary by creating a new sonic map of its own. With additional sound input from well-known Chinese experimental music icon, Yan Jun, the release is a project that brings together remarkable musical talents that shape the Chinese music scene.
　　Converging two lineages of Chinese underground music: the microsound/noise ambience of FM3 and the ever evolving rock experiment of Dou Wei, “Hou Guan Yin” is showcasing a new sonic activity that blends both the western and eastern mentality into a system of its own.
　　While the sonic appearance of FM3 + Dou Wei is apparently western in nature, the poetic thoughts and emotions that flow through their sounds show a deep appreciation of eastern thinking and sensibility. It is like a group of avant-garde musicians, meditating on the classic Chinese ink painting or an abstract expressionist painting, translating ancient eastern philosophy into landscapes and free-form brush strokes.
　　The most impressive part of “Hou Guan Yin” is the chemical interaction between FM3 and Dou Wei. FM3 with their microsound gestures trigger the ambient undercurrent of Dou Wei’s drumming and turn it into a new pulsating energy; Dou Wei at the same time reveals the hidden motions and shifting patterns in FM3’s ambience. The result is a unique poetic beauty that lies within the rhizomatic presentation and interaction of their sounds and instrumentations.
