As mui zyu, British Hong Kong artist Eva Liu constructs compositions blending phantasmagorical strings with tape-mangled drum machines and traditional Chinese instruments to create an unnerving sonic foundation where sugary pop melodies can contrast on top creating an existential balm through music.
While her debut album, ‘Rotten Bun for an Eggless Century’ delved into identity and cultural displacement, the new sophomore LP, ‘nothing or something to die for,’ addresses the chaos of contemporary existence looking outward. This album isn't one of despair, though; it's a poignant message of encouragement, urging listeners to find solace in connections – both with others and within themselves.
'Rotten Bun for an Eggless Century' and 'nothing or something to die for' together stand as reflections of everyone and everything that shapes our identities and where we fit into the earthly fabric of our lives.

this record marks a different approach to making music for me and i hope your veins welcome the sounds.
track two - ‘the mould’ is out today, a teeny anti-overture for the album. produced with Lucci Rossi and violin magic by Coco Inman
the beautiful cover art was painted by waffle burger <3

i’m releasing an album (◠﹏◠✿) ! ℜ𝔬𝔱𝔱𝔢𝔫 𝔅𝔲𝔫 𝔣𝔬𝔯 𝔞𝔫 𝔈𝔤𝔤𝔩𝔢𝔰𝔰 ℭ𝔢𝔫𝔱𝔲𝔯𝔶 comes out feb 24th. the first song 𝐆𝐡𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐚 𝐏𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡 𝐒𝐤𝐢𝐧 is out now. had the best best time working with @clumpcollective on the dreamy video 🍑🐕
after over-thinking, pruning, nurturing, trying to understand and mothering these songs i’m excited to say goodbye and let them wander off, hopefully independent enough to look after themselves. i have a lot to say about about assembling the stories and music that have become my debut album which i’ll continue to over-share |˚–˚|
pre-order / pre-save the album now ~ fdrecords.lnk.to/rottenbun
