Listen: Fifi Rong – ‘Dream On’
London based artist Fifi Rong returns with new single ‘Dream On’.
Born in Beijing, Fifi’s work is a blend of her Chinese heritage, allowing to intermingle with new tech possibilities, and an internationalist outlook.
Beatific songwriting that taps into the unconscious, her work retains a subtle sense of mystery, aligned to some deeply sonorous qualities.
Maintaining her creativity through the Yi Jing 意境 Live Performance series, Fifi Rong returns with a new single.
‘Dream On’ is – in spite of its name – a moment of directness, with Fifi channelling “direct and emotionally brutal” lyricism.
The inherent beauty of her work remains, however, with Fifi Rong commenting:
“The purity of love to me, usually happens in a dream and expires in the morning sun, unless I capture these dreams into my songs. My lyrics are subtle and subliminal but ‘Dream On’ has the most direct and emotionally brutal words. My kind of ‘direct’, though, still multi-layered metaphors.”
“Like every song on this album, I have just finished a Chinese version of this song too. Being able to glide through musical elements and deliveries between the two languages and cultures really allow me to fully express what I want to say with my work.”
Tune in now.
