Llora El Aire 风啸雨泣

“Air is crying”

根据一场去年发生在我的母国哥伦比亚，一个叫Villa de Leyva的殖民小镇的史诗级风暴所写。以哥伦比亚太平洋沿岸的民间传说为蓝本，歌词以民谣的方式记叙这场风暴的进程。

“风纵声哭泣，淡水消失殆尽，大地在哭声中疲惫不已。”

——by 维克多·巴斯蒂达斯

Atoms and Electrons 原子与电子

这是一部非常“不拘一格”的组曲，两个部分形成程强烈的对比：主题A由弦乐四重奏和鼓展开，虽是近乎无调性的现代曲风，但也极具个性与表现力。主题B则是由爵士三重奏展开的一段现代爵士嘻哈的惊奇之旅，穿插着鼓手/作曲家维克多·巴斯蒂达斯自己写下的，身为一名拉丁美裔音乐人在现代社会中经历点滴的诗句。而弦乐四重奏则依旧以无调性，但同时又更加浪漫和抒情的方式演绎了主题B，随后是鼓与浪漫风弦乐组的协奏，引出了非常抒情的旋律，由全团共同发展，描绘出21世纪当下的多元化碰撞。

Introvert 内向

作为下半场的开场曲。融合了传统爵士乐、拉美音乐以及当代音乐的创作手法，虽是以现代爵士乐风格为主，但也包含了波普和硬波普元素*（注2）。

另外，本曲亦是维克多·巴斯蒂达斯的早期作品之一，那时候他还在迈阿密和芝加哥的爵士乐学校求学并崭露头角，获得了全额助学金与研究生奖学金。

Duele 伤痛

为了纪念我去世两年的父亲所写。回想起和他共度的时光，他和我分享他对音乐的见解与深爱，尽管他并不是一个音乐家，但至今也让我难以忘怀。在我很小的时候，他就喜欢坐在客厅，带着那灿烂的笑，在他的椅子上，长时间地演奏斯特拉文斯基和巴赫的作品。除此之外，他对路易斯·阿姆斯特朗、法尼亚全明星、披头士和我国的民间音乐也不放过。

这首曲子在一些段落使用了印象派的手法，用沉重的弦乐描绘他性格的多面性，以及一段“臭名昭著”的小号独奏——因为他是古巴小号手Chocolate Armenteros的忠实粉丝。

Reset 新的一天

它讲述了在哥伦比亚太平洋海岸中部的木工们的生活。

Awaken 唤醒

为纪念伟大的哥伦比亚作家，诺贝尔奖获得者加布里埃尔·加西亚·马尔克斯 所写。

作者用诗歌与浪漫弦乐，展现了一种全新的视角：去欣赏身边琐碎但美好的小事（就像马尔克斯笔下的黄色蝴蝶），从而削弱物欲对生活的影响，这是非常重要的。

“我们注定要去爱，就如江河注定流入大海。”

“拥抱你的兄弟，拥抱你的姐妹，拥抱那些你还没有见过的人，因为他们是你最有价值的财产，他们是独一无二的，不可替代的。”

Reaching East 向京而行

由于新冠疫情，维克多离开了北京，在哥伦比亚呆了一年后，再次回到了他已经执教四年，俨然成为他第二个家的北京。临行前，他写了一首关于旅行冒险的作品，即是《Reaching east》。这是维克多的想象之旅，他克服重重障碍，回到了北京：曲子的开头是一片混乱，随即进入一段非常鼓舞人心和充满希望、生机勃勃的旋律；弦乐四重奏和爵士乐六重奏相辅相成，呈现出极高密度的信息量。

Fishdoll

独立音乐唱作人，歌手。

毕业于中国传媒大学音乐学系，5岁开始学习小提琴，2014年前往纽约进修爵士演唱，同期开始接触电子音乐创作，自学Ableton Live制作并逐步摸索出她非常个人化抽象派的独特音乐形式。

2018年初她的处女专辑《Noonsense》在纽约厂牌Paxico Records发行。专辑被Bandcamp评选为“the best new electronic album”。天马行空不受拘束的创作力，以及辨识度极高充满特色的嗓音，也让她收获了美国爵士乐萨克斯管演奏家Billie Harper的高度认可。

在纽约学习期间还曾与跟Kendrick Lamar合作赢下格莱美奖最佳饶舌/演唱合作的美国女歌手Annawise，来自88rising的Yaeji，Leaving Records 的Lionmilk，古巴裔音乐人Softglas等。

2017年回国后，她积极投入到本土的音乐社区中，与不同领域的优秀音乐家艺术家合作演出和发行作品。作为开场嘉宾与伊朗裔荷兰实验艺术家Sevdaliza, 加拿大独立摇滚乐队Suuns以及来自LA beat scene的优秀制作人Teebs和knxwledge同台演出。嗓音独特的她还经常与小老虎、周世爵、也是福合作，为中文说唱注入新鲜的活力。在爵士界，她也是为不可多得的爵士歌手，受到高太行、文智勇等爵士演奏家的邀请活跃于北京大大小小的爵士酒吧。她还多次与全国优秀的独立厂牌合作，参与合辑的创作，包括宜听音乐、燃音乐、dohits等。她还致力于推广女性的创作力量，与女性音乐人合作帮助她们完成编曲制作的工作。

2021年，Fishdoll发行了个人第二张专辑《Moonsense / 月感》，入围新加坡独立音乐Fresh music Awards的“年度最佳50张专辑“和“年度最佳10首单曲” 延续着专辑中拥抱自我珍惜自然的想法，她开始向着下一个目标进发——希望能推广可持续发展的概念，呼吁大家使用可降解的，plant-based以及organic的生活物品，拒绝塑料制品。作为一个艺术创作者，她认为社会责任感是艺术作品的力量根基。音乐也并不能完全展现“Fishdoll”，她认为所有倡导美、鼓励美的事情都值得去认真做。
