Who's Jonathan Wong? If you still don't know him, you should probably feel ashamed. He's definitely someone who should be known wider. Not only good looking but very talented, sings in few languages (4 as for now ;P) and has kinda unique music. Haven't heard of him? Click on the tags below and find his music!
I especially respect artists who like to experiment with music, mix different kinds of music that on the surface don't mach to each other. Jonathan is one of them amongst Leehom Wang and JJ Lin.
So let's take a look at his new "child".
新巴赫狂想曲 is the exact reflection of it's title "rap-sody". You can hear rap and strings in the back, which is absolutely wonderful. In the second track 你是哪種人 you can hear mix of modern and classical chinese music. That's exactly what I love and gives amazing effect. I like it a lot. Next one is really interesting, something different. An absolute yes. 人啊人 is a mandarin track. Another thing with folk somewhere but in a real soft way. Just some delicate sounds that suggest folk but mixed with something else, plus the guitar in one moment. Epic. Worth attention! Back to Cantonese with the next one. Let's leave folk tunes for modern ones. This one is very interesting too.
The last one is 再生. A simple ballad in two languages.
