https://craftingroomrecordings.bandcamp.com/album/overview-effect-soundtrackHualun returns to the label to release two tracks from their magnificent E.P. wʌndərlænd +5. The E.P. was originally released on the label in April of this year, and managed to sell out in under 3 hours.
The two songs are featured in the latest film "Overview Effect" by German Director Luis Schubert. They perfectly conjure up a calm and introspective atmosphere which is perpetuated though-out this beautiful piece of cinema.

"sounds in wʌndərlænd +5 are a recreated aura of the cold, midnight air. (...) The mood is sometimes dystopian because there are majestically dark sections to be found in some of the tracks. But even in its brightest moments, wʌndərlænd +5 isn’t just a jocund ride, but can also display a gloomy and hypnotic affair with swirling synthscapes and electrifying bass droplets." - ANTI: Music Review
The tracks have been remastered for this release and bring a clear and emotional effect to the listener's ears. The battered tape deck which recorded the original set of 50 cassettes, has also seen a considerable upgrade since the last release. This release promises to convey Hualun's beautiful soundscapes at their best.
"The Greek-western hemisphere connects easily with this dense and experimental fragment. It’s a soundscape that hits you like an energy wave in motion. Quarantine comes and goes on planet earth, and we remain, skeptic, collective, and a bit silent within" - Give It A Spin
