Symphony of Tears

Lin Lin and the Symphony of Tears is a music project described as an "existential crisis in six acts". It was born over an internet friendship and spawned 2 albums of plundered audio and visuals. The work was a means to play with timing and mood in a more organic way - resulting in long, heavy, and very orchestral suites of glitching audio work. 

Release I was released on June 4th, 2021 and was pressed on physical cassettes by the label Oasis Ltd. A visual album was create in tandem for the release, and was pressed on both VHS and GBA (GameBoy Advance). 

Release II was self-released on October 3rd, 2022. Limited edition CD-r's were burned and sold privately in 2023.
