The city that never sleeps, the land of the sleepless – what compels the people who wander through it to prevent the night from quietly falling? Perhaps it cannot be generalized, but the upcoming album tour of the same name by the Mosaic band for their new album ‘Sleepless Town’ may provide an answer. The tender rhythm of ‘City Hunter’ paves the way for love, followed by the seemingly debauched yet introspective ‘Fragments’. The new album ‘Sleepless Town’ carries the midnight rhythm of Mosaic, gradually unveiling its mystery – a retro setting in an era filled with brilliant memories, in a fictional city where lights never go out, countless stories are happening in sync with their rhythm.
In ‘Sleepless Town’, everyone has a reason for being awake; perhaps they are still busy with their livelihood, or they have lost track of time in pleasure, or they are tossing and turning. Who can swear that in these sleepless nights, there is no loneliness at play, no solitude causing it? ‘Sleepless Town’ is the hymn and sigh that Mosaic, amidst the hustle and bustle of the world, has written with dedication. In the illusion of neon lights and the soft accompaniment of dance music, on the edge of dreams and the next sunrise, the emotions that cannot be contained in daylight are offered to the midnight.
Mosaic writes about love, dance, and the emotions that are hard to hide in the lonely night. When those retro sounds and joyful rhythms ring out, their deeply emotional expression becomes a temporary residence for the soul. In the tide of revelry, people can deeply feel the unique pulse and vitality of the city. This tour will not only passionately perform a series of classic hits but also present the entire tracklist of the new album ‘Sleepless Town’, following their retro-futuristic sound thread, consciousness will leap across different timelines with them.
Undoubtedly, the inspiration for ‘Sleepless Town’ comes from the cities of the last century full of opportunities and fantasies, and yet, under their keys, it goes far beyond that. The arrows of love penetrate the barriers of time, scenes of the past and future fantasies are sequentially displayed in different chapters. The simplicity, noise, and helplessness of life, the unrestrained, passionate, and freedom of fantasy, are all delicately woven into the melody.
No matter when, Mosaic’s music always has the magic to span eras, the sincere joy written in the score can always strike the softest part of people’s hearts in a unique way that transcends form and language, turning every place they visit into a city that never sleeps. The opening time is on December 29th, Sunday, with the show starting at 20:00, and the specific duration of the performance will be determined on site.
