ESPANOL (scroll down for english)
(Este es un texto de Zhu Wenbo, describiendo el proyecto " La cinta Flotante)
Todavía no conozco a Anne-F Jacques, y creo que va a ser dificil conocerla personalmente, por lo menos en los años que vienen.

ENGLISH
(This is a text of Zhu Wenbo, describing the project, " The Flotant Tape) )
I have not met Anne-F Jacques before, and I’m afraid it might be difficult in the next few years. We have some common friends, and
I believe some similar interests around music, and maybe something beyond music too. We traded cassettes before, shipping
always taking too many days. Yes, I also run a cassette label named Zoomin’ Night in Beijing.
In the summer of 2021, we started talking about some possible collaborations. A collaboration between two tiny cassette label
runners, I thought it could be an interesting idea. Then, I had the idea to invite two other cassette label runner friends to join this
game. For each release, two persons contribute sound materials, the third person make some arrangement and mix (only using
these materials), and the final product is released on the fourth person’s label. We change roles each time, so each person will act
twice as a musician, once as a producer, and once as a publisher. And each person’s work will not be published on their own label.
Anne-F suggested two friends. Pablo Picco is an Argentine musician who works under the name Bardo Todol, and has just started
the label Bolinga Everest this year. I always imagine him as a passionate and mysterious father, living with his family in the campo
faraway from any civilization (comment form Pablo: I live 30km away from a big city, not that far away from civilization!). And
Christian Schiefner aka. Chemiefaserwerk, who has been running Falt for many years, actually we have traded cassettes before. He
lives in France, but it seems he is from Berlin. So many people have released their stuff on Falt, including Pablo, Anne-F and
myself. It is one of many secret links between us.
We spent days preparing, recording, mixing, asking for more materials, and thinking about a name for this project. One day, some
old views came back to my mind.
When I was a teenager, mid-1990s, broken and loose tape could always be found in cities, even in the country. They were ripped on
wire, on tree, or hidden in some corners. After some breeze, the black tape was floating in the air. No one had any interest in
knowing what was recorded on these tapes. Maybe English teaching or pirated pop songs, or private messages, sound diary, radio
programs…
After 2000s, this view became rare and then disappeared. But now I think, “floating tape” can be a good name for our collaborations.
Tapes is soft, dirty and inconspicuous, but in another imaginary, these dirty tapes could be transported by wind, floating across the
ocean, and reach to another un-met friend in an undetected way.
That is the whole story of “floating tape”. There will be four releases, sharing a same title but in different languages. The cassette
you hold in your hand, released by presses précaires, is the first one. It was performed by Chemiefaserwerk and Bardo Todol and
mixed by myself. In the coming months, another 3 cassettes will come out in some other corners of the world. Hope you enjoy.
Zhu Wenbo
