Dope Purple‘s new album “Children In The Darkness” was recorded when the band hosted a live midnight recording session at Revolver, Taipei City on Friday 3rd March 2023.
Amidst the tense silence of the middle of the night, the five members of Dope Purple, two guest musicians: saxophonist Yong Yandsen from Malaysia, British drummer Darren Moore from Singapore, and a familiar audience, came together to produce the album “Children In The Darkness.”
The album is a ferocious Psychedelic/Space Rock, no starlight, no glamourous Psychedelic paradise, just a meditative journey of infinite darkness and ear-splitting tinnitus. Unlike our last album, I didn’t have a specific theme or idea for this album, however I named it “Children In The Darkness” because all the songs on this album share the same lonely, disorientating chaos that reminds me of children forgotten in the darkness, and Dope Purple has always been a messenger for those children, playing sedative music for their ghosts.
At the end of each performance, I can clearly feel my furious brain melting away and only the calming spirit remains in my body.
