iii


iii是一個充滿叛逆個性，以採樣為本，顛覆音樂體系為樂，且沒有固定成員的筆記本樂團。他們不但四出盜聲，演出時，更不時相互採聲或監守自盜。


iii熱愛廣東流行曲及所有低俗的曲子及被遺忘的流行偶像。但視乎情况而定，他們也不一定只演廣東流行曲。

公園好聲 Sound In The Park (策劃、文：袁智聰)
四個公園，六個地點，六場不同主題的露天音樂表演。

這是一個以融入公園空間為大前提的冬日午後音樂表演活動。所以我們沒有搭建舞台，也沒有巨型揚聲器，而是將音樂會變成公園的閒適愜意氣氛與流動風景一部分，令到音樂伴隨著多點綠色而來。於溫暖的冬日陽光與鳥語花香的環境下，讓樂迷身處一個自由開放的空間欣賞好聲現場音樂演出。

公園是供公眾消遣休憩的戶外場所，香港地少人多，我們這個城市裡商場太多、公園太少，大家要更加珍惜這個綠色的公共空間與城市資源。而「公園好聲」便是要把公園裡的公共空間化作音樂表演的平台、與眾同樂的表演場地。今次「公園好聲」的小型巡演會走遍香港公園、沙田公園、九龍公園和屯門公園；公園裡的廣場、花園、露天劇場和草坪，都會是我們舉行表演的地方。而每次皆會配合不同的表演環境，帶來特定的音樂主題。美好的現場音樂表演，看著樂手與樂迷的互動關係，每每能夠勾勒出一幅美麗而雅緻的畫面。那麼，沒有甚麼美好得過在陽光與樹蔭下於公園的露天空間帶來的音樂演出。

With no fixed members and always in flux, members of iii not only sample from their source materials, but also sample one another and re-sample themselves on stage.iii loves canto-pop and all kinds of outdated cheesy tune and popular icon. But depending on the occasion, one might also spot them playing something else.

Sound in the Park ( Curated by: Yuen Chi-chung)

Outdoor concerts in six different themes take place in six locations in four parks.
“Sound in The Park” is an afternoon concert series aiming to mix music into the park environment. The shows need no stage set, no giant loudspeakers. It is music that is going to be absorbed into the gentle milieu and landscape of the park, furnishing it with more notes of green. Under the winter sun and amidst the comforting environment of the park, music-lovers will have a good chance to enjoy live music in a free and open atmosphere.
A park is a very important outdoor space for people to relax. Given the ever- growing number of people and shopping malls here in Hong Kong, a park is getting even more vital as the public space and resource that city dwellers can share among themselves.
Turning this public space into a music platform and performance venue, Sound in The Park will tour around Hong Kong Park, Kowloon Park, Sha Tin Park and Tuen Mun Park. The piazzas, gardens, amphitheatre and grassland are all places in which great music will be delivered. And the concerts will be tailor-made with themes to fit different park environment.

Great music and the close encounter between music and its audience culminate in a picture that is both eye- and ear-soothing; an enjoyable afternoon filled with the warmth of the sun and the wonders of music. (Text:Yuen Chi-chung)
