Cicada『回返（十五周年自选集）』

回返湿地与记忆边境，重新以声音诠释人与自然。
Cicada跨越时差，将过去三张与海洋有关的专辑如潮汐交会；
十年远行，以新的呼吸感受每一个曾经的留白与休止。
过去从未消失，我们深爱与凝视的事物，比如一首歌与一片礁岸丶比如湿地与白海豚……他们依然都在，等待被再次演奏丶被你我想起。Cicada相信：「每首曲子都会演化，它们跟着我们一起成长。」

从2013年『边境消逝』丶2015年『仰望海平面』，一路到2017年『不在的你们都去了哪里』……2024年的『回返』，一次将三种海景，以Cicada更成熟与凝炼的风格二次冲洗，他们的演奏如同写真，将回顾的快门再次对准，摄下了礁岩与丛花丶土地和家。

任过往被无数次现场与时间的风雨冲刷，回返原来通往了情绪海潮沉淀後的全新演绎，作为Cicada多年踏查丶描绘台湾山海的一次回顾记录，更精准地以音符追逐音符，用情感锚定情绪。

自选集维持Cicada惯用的同步录音，重新感受丶录制五首歌曲。以一次回返的时间，将记忆带回岛屿的西滨，一路抵达东岸，从浅滩汇流向深海。当我们用当下回溯从前，有些深爱与感动，依然与这些声音紧紧相连。

Cicada revisited the land from memory, a journey over the past ten years, to explore the intersectionality of humans and nature.

The past never leaves us. Our cherished memories, like a song, a forest, a wetland, and dolphins, linger and integrate, waiting for us to revisit them. Cicada believes every piece of our music evolves; they grow with us.

Cicada unveiled “Coastland Revisited: A Remake of Select Pieces” in 2024. They selected and reinterpreted songs from Coastland, Light Shining Through the Sea, and White Forest. Five songs were recorded live with a mature and polished style, developed through years of live performances and studying the landscape of Taiwan, which promises to transport us to memories of coral, flowers, land, and home, from the shoreline to the deep sea, from the west to east coast of the island.

关於Cicada
成军於2009年，Cicada以小提琴丶大提琴丶钢琴丶木吉他四种乐器交织而成。之所以取名为Cicada是因为，人们察觉到蝉的出现，往往是听到它们的声音，而不是看见其形体。

2013年，Cicada开始为台湾的土地创作。《边境消逝》的主题是西海岸，《仰望海平面》则是东海岸与太平洋，并在2017年延伸至鲸豚丶珊瑚与海龟，推出以动物为主题的《不在的你们都去了哪里》。迈入成团第十年之际，Cicada从海洋走向高山，《走入有雾的森林》宛如以音乐撰写的登山日记。2022年，透过追寻溪的源头，将视角转往山与山之间的森林与谷地，以专辑《栖居在溪源之上》呈现长时间待在山上的各种时刻。

Cicada from Taiwan was formed in 2009 consists of violin, cello, piano and acoustic guitar. It's named after Cicada because people are aware of cicada's existence by their sound instead of forms. 

In 2013, Cicada began to compose for Taiwan. The theme of “Coastland” was the west coastland, and “Light Shining Through the Sea” was inspired by the east coast and the Pacific Ocean. “White Forest” released in 2017 drew inspiration from marine life such as humpback whales, dolphins, coral reefs and sea turtles.

Cicada walked into the mountain from the ocean on their 10th year and released the hiking journal “Hiking in the Mist”. In 2022, their focus switched to the valleys and forests. “Seeking the Sources of Streams” comprised moments of roaming the mountains.
