Short Cues
Instrumental
Bei Guan Rhapsody
With brainwashing oriental melodies; violin trills from Vivaldi; combining the sound of Bei Guan from Taiwanese Temple Festival with Jazz, a song with a new style of Chinese New Year traditional music is born.
Special thanks to Sound Museum, one of the best teams that develops Taiwanese ethnic sample libraries to preserve all the precious sounds from Taiwan.
Splendid is a piece inspired by the Chinese television series Ice Fantasy. By accumulated plenty of experience to produce epic-like orchestral music. Splendid was kind of a summary of Bo-Xun’s own fantasy and interpretation of the series’ production.
By daydreaming of traveling through the mountains and canyons; watching the river flowing beneath the abyss and praising the incredible and uncanny workmanship of nature. The immense landscape shows how tiny we humans are in the universe, and how negligible our agonies could be.

Lyrics:
點燃了蠟燭 許下你的願望
人生多荒唐 仰賴的是勇敢
脫序的節奏嚮往著鬆綁
微醺著 何以解憂唯有杜康
卸下那 一無是處的偽裝
噢 與生俱來的慵懶
基因 又在找麻煩
小紙團 寫了滿腹的 不爽
壞心情 也許就能 獲得流放
喝吧 誰管那人模人樣
形象 甚麼都別想
迎接明天的陽光 / 那些所謂的夢想
卻又是稀鬆的平常 / 不過是在腦中瘋狂
擇木而棲 Find Your Way Out is a Hard rock / Pop fused song demo produced by Bo-Xun back in the year 2014.

Lyrics:
勞碌命 我們這些賤民
一生懸命 滿足老闆家中的經濟
像機器 加班沒有給薪
運轉不停 學會認命的勞工階級
資本主義崛起 小螺絲的使命
還有多少人力 就壓榨到底
如機械般的身體抵禦 上司無理的剝削待遇
我折腰不是為那點薪 很抱歉良禽擇木而棲
多少人才培育 不是為了這種前途 Woo~ 在努力
何時才能歇息 下班遙遙無期
責任一間扛起 就注定是你
有多少錢 做多少事
五人工 三人做 四人薪
