《love，love，love》是数学摇滚/emo乐队上海秋天乐队（Shanghai Qiutian）主唱兼吉他手王毅（aka Eñaut Zinkunegi, aka SAN LOU）于2022仲夏的首张全长创作专辑，在国内宜听音乐厂牌发布。这是他首次在音乐中公开谈论爱情，尝试了对于他来说新鲜的语言与创作方式。

《love，love，love》更像是关于“爱”的十首诗，一场爱上你时候的心理活动，我与灵魂深处的认识的过程，引发听众的无限关于“爱”之遐想。SAN LOU用音乐给我们讲述了他的故事，听众产生共鸣，也给了我们治愈，仿佛各种各样的“我”都是我，什么味道的情绪都是组成“我”，我们每个人的“我”并不孤独，重要的是我们在这个迷幻冷寂的午夜慢下来，倾听自己内心的声音，与自我和解。SAN LOU尝试了新的音色，新的编曲方式，新的融合，Tony Allen的鼓采样与贝斯的完美融合，给我们带来了尝试与自己和解的信心堡垒搭建过程。

专辑封面收录了巴塞罗那摄影师 Iker Gozategi 的作品，这是一封来自SAN LOU的细腻用心的信笺。用英文、西语、和巴斯克语，SAN LOU从不同角度诠释了他心中的“爱”：有初见的心跳，喜欢上一个人时的孤单，有对爱的渴望，失落，有迷惘后的狂欢，也像是新生的独自绽放意象，一场爱的落幕迎接而来的是郁闷，渴望得到救赎地告诫自己，温柔地与自己和解…

love love love

跟着奇妙的心跳声，我们走进了SAN LOU的世界。

I Can't Think About You

前奏响起，黑夜的孤独感让我的思绪像液体一样流动，愈发地快…I can't think about you.我不太能想你，想到你时心脏会砰砰跳，想到你时会辗转反侧，想到你时我因无法拥抱而感到黯然神伤。

Midnight in Paris

普希金说「现今总是令人悲哀，那逝去的则变为可爱。」狄更斯在双城记中的这句话常被拿出来引用「那是最美好的年代，那是最糟糕的时代。」但是无论这是最好的时代还是最坏的时代，这都是一个适合保持精神充盈的现在。“No subject is terrible if the story is true,

if the prose is clean and honest,

and if it affirms courage and grace under pressure.”

我们应该要再见了，我们不会再见了，我愿迷路不再见到你，过去的我们很美好，所以我要和你说再见。

La Cancion Desesperada

打开黑胶机，SAN LOU的歌声耐听自带烟嗓，你可以在快节奏扮演者的一天中抽离出来，和你自己待在一起，这场冒险时间你来决定，绝望者啊，跳舞吧！在你自己的天地里跟随SAN LOU的节奏，你自己即兴的肢体流动，你会感觉这个夜晚的一切都在为你服务。

我声嘶力竭地呐喊我们忘记我们，我们忘记，我们忘记，你可明白我的心意？

Let's Not Rush

我把脸埋进膝盖间，温暖的手掌捧住我的脸颊，你可以慢一些亲爱的，没有人会责怪你的。

Nowhere Now Where

我的故事到这里就结束了，爱是永远存在的东西，I'm always grateful for who I am.这场冒险到此结束了朋友，我会让你回到你的生活中，就像现在这样，sweet dreams.

love, love, love is an LP from Wang Yi aka Eñaut Zinkunegi aka SAN LOU, the lead singer and guitarist of Shanghai math-rock/emo band Shanghai Qiutian. Released on China's Eating Records in the summer of 2022, this is the first time Zinkunegi's openly talked about love in music, and on the album he tries out a new musical language and creative approach.

love, love, love is more like ten poems about "love", a record of the emotions felt when loving you, the process of knowing me in the depths of my soul, arousing in the audience an infinite reverie about "love". SAN LOU uses music to tell us his story, finding within us points of resonance and providing healing. Every type of "me" is still me, whatever flavour of emotions, they all create "me", no "I" is an island, what's important is that we slow down in this psychedelic midnight silence, listening to the music in our hearts, understanding ourselves. SAN LOU tries out new sounds, new composition methods, and new ways of incorporating all these elements together, and using a perfect combination of Tony Allen drum samples and bass guitar, takes us on a bildungsroman journey of finding the confidence to reconcile with oneself.

The album cover art comes from Barcelona-based photographer Iker Gozategi, wrapping SAN LOU's vinyl release like a thoughtful letter. In English, Spanish, and Basque, SAN LOU approaches "love" from various angles of interpretation: heart flutters of first love, the loneliness of liking someone, the desire for love, heartbreak, euphoria in resolving uncertainties, like an image of a newborn first bloom, the depression of heartbreak, longing for redemption, tender self-reconciliation...

love love love

Following the sound of a heartbeat, we enter the world of SAN LOU.

I Can't Think About You

As the prelude begins, the loneliness of the night makes my thoughts flow fluid-like, faster and faster...I can't think about you. I can't bear to think of you too much, for my heart pounds when I think of you, and I toss and turn when I think of you , I feel miserable when I think of you and can't feel your embrace.

Midnight in Paris

Pushkin once said, "Is the present sad indeed? 'T is but a moment, all will pass; Once in the past, it shall be dear." Dickens's A Tale of Two Cities begins with the famous quote, "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times." But whether it was the best of times or the worst of times, the present calls for us to be present.

"No subject is terrible if the story is true,

if the prose is clean and honest,

and if it affirms courage and grace under pressure."

It's time we should say goodbye, we won't see each other again, I would like to lose. myself and never see you again. Because we had a blissful past, I want to say goodbye to you now.

La Cancion Desesperada

Turning on the vinyl player, listening to SAN LOU's endearing, smokey vocals, the mask we wear amidst the hustle and bustle of life can finally come off, allowing us to spend some time with our true selves. This adventure is in your hands. Desperate people, dance! Follow the rhythms of SAN LOU in your own world with your own improvised bodily movements, and you'll feel like everything is working for you tonight.

I'm screaming for us to forget about us, to forget, to forget, do you know what I mean?

Let's Not Rush

I bury my face in my knees and cup my cheeks with warm palms. You can slow down darling, no one will blame you.

Nowhere Now Where

My story ends here, love is something that is always there, I'm always grateful for who I am. This adventure ends here friend, I'll let you back in your life like it is now. Sweet dreams.
