Emmy The Great - April /ó (Vinyl) ÜMy story begins with the moon. In September 2017, I travelled to Hong Kong from New York, where IÙd lived for three years, for the Mid-Autumn festival. I was planning to visit my parents and take some time off to write my fourth album. I arrived in time for the full moon - Chang-EÙs moon - at a time of year when the heat breaks and the city seems alive with possibility. æ that Mid-Autumn, everything felt simple. Under the guidance of the moon, I walked the city - its neon-lit alleyways, its escalators and mountain paths. For a brief, precious moment, I fell into synch with Hong Kong. I felt its complex legacy and its tangled future. I felt the sorrow, alive in the buzz of neon and the drips of air-conditioner units, of a city caught between two destinies. It was twenty years since the Handover and the beginning of ØOne Country, Two SystemsÙ. Everywhere I went, I saw people seeking to define their shared identity before it was too late. I hope some of that spirit has found its way into the songs, which were mostly written during that time.Ý TRACKLISTING 1. Mid-Autumn/ ó 2. Writer 3. Dandelions/Liminal 4. Chang-E 5.
