BookBookBalance’s second album, STATIONS, marks their first studio-recorded project. Transitioning from recorded live performance to an intimate studio setting, this album captures the essence of improvisation—the hallmark of BBB’s concept—further stimulated by the possibilities of studio recording. The result is a profound “flow” experience, an expansion rather than a departure from their previous work.

 

Each track is a brief, yet complete journey, dissipating as quickly as it arises. The 12 tracks depict vivid yet elusive urban narratives and emotions, resembling the nocturnal cityscape. The music, like the rail tracks at night, navigates through absurdity and solitude. One might hear Camus’ words resonate through the aural “stations” the record describes. The album cover’s intertwining colors and flowing shapes mirror the exploration of the boundaries between reality and illusion.

 

Above all, STATIONS is an expression of the members’ experienced reality—that living itself is an improvisational journey.
