安第一 An Di Yi London Global ambient, trip-hop www.andiyi.co.uk I’m a London based composer with a background in advertising. For many years I played in bands and as a solo artist at night while writing ads during the day. In 2011 I was working Beijing as a creative director, by chance I got to play one of my compositions to Howie B, who loved it, and encouraged me to start writing and producing more seriously. Under the name my Mandarin teacher had given me, An Di Yi (pronounced Andy E), I released two albums of ambient, filmic, trip-hoppy music using sounds recorded on my travels charting my experiences in a kind of musical diary. Beijing street traders, Himalayan mule bells, insects from the forests of Huangshan and black rain from Hong Kong, underpin an eclectic orchestra of virtual instruments and beats from both east and west, in a deeply-chilled fusion. The distinctive ambient groove of An Di Yi was born. An Di Yi built a considerable following here on SoundCloud, and has featured on BBC Introducing on Tom Robinson’s show. An Di Yi’s first ever live show, in Hong Kong, on 1/9/16, opened a new chapter, to rave reviews. Now back in London, I'm working as a composer on commercial projects, new solo compositions, as a producer, and on collaborations with ambient electro-acoustic artist and violin player, Katabasis, and guitarist Seb Kromp. *Atmospheric and smooth, his tracks recall both calm vistas and restless urban nights. A wonderful opening act, An Di Yi reminds us of the intricacies of Asia and the stunning effect simply living here can have on one’s music. Jules O’Brien, Timeout, Hong Kong* *A blissfully meditative and immersive set had lulled the audience into a dream-like haze. When the lights came on, it felt like an unwelcome obtrusion.* *– El Jay, The Underground Hong Kong* 安第一 An Di Yi’s popular tracks Moby - Free Download: The Last Day, ft.
