Listen to 讓我歡喜讓我憂 You make me happy and sad, a playlist by chu-lan-maria on #SoundCloud
悲傷教你為快樂做好準備。 它猛烈地把你家裡的一切都掃除,如此一來全新的喜樂就可以找到空間進來。 它把樹枝上的黃葉從你心中抖落,方可在原來的地方長出新翠的綠葉。 拔掉爛根,長出新生的。 隱藏在下面便有成長的空間。 無論悲傷從你的心中撼動, 更好的事將會取而代之。
Sorrow prepares you for joy. It violently sweeps everything out of your house, so that new joy can find space to enter. It shakes the yellow leaves from the bough of your heart, so that fresh, green leaves can grow in their place. It pulls up the rotten roots, so that new roots hidden beneath have room to grow. Whatever sorrow shakes from your heart, far better things will take their place.

Chenyu Vale music is what Liyue music should have been and I stand by that claim. The main Liyue soundtrack is good but in the end it's mostly a orchestra rendition of Chinese-sounding tunes, whereas Chenyu Vale music actually incorporated many Chinese traditional instruments.

Name: Guang Tseng (曾光)
Ethnicity: Han Chinese
Species: Vampire
Birthday: 05.12.1666
Physical Age: 33
Height: 171cm
Sexuality: Bisexual
backstory summary
born in taiwan as the middle child of immigrants from fujian, who were former ming dynasty officials fleeing the qing rule
born blind (eyes very clouded they appear almost white from further away), spent most of his childhood inside, mostly with his grandmother and younger sister hsin-yi
loved when his grandma told them stories because it told him about the world, also loved music, especially beiguan
started teaching himself how to play instruments in his teens (erhu & guqin)
was kidnapped & forcibly turned by members of the taiwanese coven when out with his sister because blind vampires make for great soldiers due to the heightened other senses
trained to use echolocation under torture, then used to fight, enjoyed not being treated as fragile anymore but definitely didn't fuck with the fighting thing
conspired with mo & hsin-yi in the 1830s to kill the leaders & gain freedom, fled to south korea afterwards. returned to taiwan in the 20st century
lives in the southern countryside with hsin-yi, hasn't lost his passion for music and is a somewhat successful artist in taiwan (music inspo)
random trivia
him using echolocation unfortunately also means he's clicking his tongue constantly
huge fucking stoner. have you ever seen him without the lingering smell of weed? that's weird.
on top of wearing sunglasses his eyes are closed most of the time, so when he does open them the air feels weird on his eyeballs & he blinks a lot
used to be very strong in combat but hasn't used it since gaining freedom, just been chilling instead so it is mostly dormant
fluent in cantonese and mandarin but prefers to speak hokkien as much as he can, mostly sings in it as well
bit eccentric but has a very genuine personality that makes most people like him
would not choose to gain eyesight even if modern medicine ever made it possible for him
does not kill for blood if he can avoid it
also very invested in paranormal stories and ghost hunting in his free time, does a podcast or youtube series or some bullshit about it with chiharu

"民主的可貴在於制衡的力量 The value of democracy lies in the power of checks and balances."
袁崇煥/明代 崇禎皇帝之【死前遺言】 👍
一生事業總成空 半世功名在夢中 死後不愁無將勇 忠魂依舊保遼東
兒時就曾聽過我爹講述他的史實,我其實挺欣賞他的。~「明知其難,但絕不知難而退 。明知官場凶險,但絕不知險而避。」
他像是古希臘的悲劇英雄,他有著巨大的勇氣,和敵人作戰的勇氣、道德上的勇氣;他那沖天的幹勁、執拗的蠻勁、剛烈的狠勁,却在當時猥瑣萎靡的明末朝廷中,加倍的突顯其與衆不同。- ℒan

music is insane because as soon as you stop listening to a song or album or playlist all of that will be permanently attached to whatever era of ur life you were listening to it in. the only way to steal it back from your past self is to listen to it so much that you power through the nostalgia and then its also representative of that new era

Chinese traditional instruments cover of track “Myriad of Lights” from the 2022 Lantern Rite event by Zi De Guqin Studio/自得琴社.  Costumes are Song dynasty style hanfu.
Instruments from left to right in ensemble scene (note:  the guy second from right is an actor and did not play an instrument):
Dizi/笛子:  transverse bamboo flute; unique characteristic being the dimo/笛膜, or thin bamboo fiber membrane that gives it its unique bright tone.
Erhu/二胡:  bowed stringed instrument, has only two strings.  Usually serves a primary role similar to a violin.
Guqin/古琴:  sometimes translated as “Chinese zither”; seven-stringed plucked instrument that is fairly ancient; in ancient times it was simply referred to as qin/琴, and the gu/古, meaning old or ancient, was added on to the name in modern times.
Dagu/大鼓:  traditional large drum; has a variety of uses in ancient times, including raising morale in the military; in modern contemporary Chinese drama/cinema they are commonly used in background music for fight scenes.
Guzheng/古筝:  stringed plucked instrument, has movable bridges; in ancient times it was simply referred to as zheng/筝, and the gu/古, meaning old or ancient, was added on to the name in modern times.
Pipa/琵琶:  stringed plucked instrument; came from Middle East; originally played horizontally with a plectrum (this can still be seen with Japanese biwa, since pipa was the predecessor of the biwa), and over time it eventually became finger-plucked.
Instrument not included in ensemble scene:
Bo/钹:  small cymbal with a greater curvature at the middle (larger cymbals with less curvature are usually referred to as Cha/镲); here played using small mallets.
