Blood Lotus is the music project of Hannah Wu, who fuses club, ambient, experimental R&B, avant-garde pop and traditional Chinese instruments to push the sonic parameters of genre. She constructs spectral sonic worlds where the past and future collide in motion; intimate vocals flutter over shapeshifting beats, scaffolded by oscillating synths and glistening strings. In Motions, she evokes the memory of waiting for a relationship to end, while reflecting on the transformative potentials of loss and letting go. She excavates the poetics of desire in her lyrics: “Fall without landing / fall without grounding / fall away from the edges of breath / that leave me so estranged.” With a focus on collaboration, this release is produced by Kuya Neil, Ryan Fennis and Voidhood, who she has worked with closely to produce her debut album, slated to be released with CONTENT.NET.AU in 2024.
