about

The single ‘The Northeast Monsoon” presents the winter surfing season in Taiwan. Instead of sunny and warm water surfing, ‘The Northeast Monsoon’ was more like a gloomy and windy day in the east coast of Taiwan. Surfers have to find the right spot for good waves where it can block the strong Northeast Monsoon.
It happens when KJ first time stay in Taitung,Taiwan for a month as a gap month when he start learning how to write codes, he met a friend who is an online surfing magazine editor, said ‘Since you were a professional musician before, why don't you make some surf musics, I will probably need it when I am gonna use it in m video’. KJ said ‘Why not’ then started his brand new journey.
When the demo first was exposed on an indie music website, it got big and became a hit on the site, some senior high students also made a cover and also someone even created the sheet music for it.
After a few years KJ decided to make ‘The Northeast Monsoon’ as his first official released single, it took a long time to find a better way to present it. To look for a better rhythm session, KJ and the percussionist Vincent have tried multiple times by recording different kinds of sound from marine debris that was picked up by themselves, which includes oil cans bottle caps, wash machine conduit pipe...etc
For mastering, after working with the recording engineer Andy Baker, KJ decide to find one who should know how surfing music sounds like, so KJ tried to contact Jack Johnson’s record
company and they found - Bernie Grundman, who ever worked with Jack Johnson, Michael Jackson, Quincy Jones...etc, the make this single 100%.
After release, this single goes to every online platform such as Spotify, Apple Music banners charts, and is still growing up!

lyrics

天氣預報 鋒面來襲 穿上大衣 外加一條圍巾
跳上車子 發動引擎 我將遠行 關上手機 丟掉不必要的事情
Oh 我已找到 新的生命 她的美麗 無人能敵
No 我已準備被傷透了心 一去不回 我也在所不惜

東東東東 東北季風 意亂情迷 一陣春風
你的曲線 讓我失控 無法跳脫 你身上的節奏
東東東東 東北季風 吹呀吹起 一陣騷動
我 無法抗拒 妳的誘惑 一見到你我就發瘋
一見到你我就發瘋 一見到你我就

妳的捉摸不定 讓我不能左右 愛戀的感覺 卻又 蠢蠢欲動
坐立不安 暈頭轉向 無法移動 等呀等的 只為等待你的出沒
我想在你的肩線動作 親吻你的額頭 摟著你的腰胸
與你共舞 被你包覆是最高成就
與妳翻雲覆雨也能成為 另一種傳說

Oh 我已找到 新的生命 她的美麗 無人能敵
No 我已準備 被傷透了心 一去不回 我也在所不惜

東東東東 東北季風 意亂情迷 一陣春風
你的曲線 讓我失控 無法跳脫 你身上的節奏
東東東東 東北季風 吹呀吹起 一陣騷動
Please 請妳不要將我冷凍 一見到你我就發瘋

東東東東 東北季風 意亂情迷 一陣春風
你的曲線 讓我失控 無法跳脫 你身上的節奏
東東東東 東北季風 吹呀吹起 一陣騷動
我 無法抗拒妳的誘惑 一見到你我就 發瘋
