Midi Festival Picks by Ian Sherman "Proximity Butterfly: Great name, great hair, great band.

This multi-national Chengdu based outfit has been rocking its reverb-laden Siamese-Dream-on-the-moon tunes for a couple of years now to ever-increasing attention, tearing up stages all over China in the process." Time Out Beijing Magazine, May 2008. ..

"On stage, loyal to their view of music as a part of human experience and a show of 'celebration and togetherness,' Proximity Butterfly delivers an overwhelming audio-visual performance." Music from the Margins by Motty Henoch, Nanjing 2007

"Proximity Butterfly/???? is one of Chengdu's most established rock bands." Chengdoo Magazine, June 2007

Himalayan Filmfestival 2009



Carl Parker's "The Return" , filmed from 2005-2007, is an epic journey of its own kind. Unlike your BBC favorites, Carl rides, films, and produces entirely independent of any crew. He scales the western less explored regions of China with anthropological honesty... He captures the Zeitgeist of this niche and case of survival.

Directed and Produced by Carl Parker
Soundtrack by Chengdu's very own Proximity Butterfly (变色蝴蝶)



The soundtrack features Tracks from Arcana, Poltergeist: Cinerarium and The Antikythera Mechanism all available in digital and hard copy in stores throughout China and upon request at: proximitybutterfly@gmail.com

  • Bio

    Proximity Butterfly melts together with ancient Chinese instruments and cutting-edge rock layered with psychedelia. Established in 2003 by Joshua C. Love (America), Chenduxi (China) and Heather Judson (Canada), Proximity Butterfly landed in China 9 years ago – since then, the tales of performance, power and the world's unknowns have shaken the space that makes this band so unique and full of genuine expression. The band currently consists of guitarist/vocalist/producer Joshua C. Love, bassist/vocalist Heather Love, guitarist Robert Tanner, and drummer Wang Yong.

Official Website........ .... ...... Proximity Butterfly ....is a highly philosophically charged project that began in Chengdu, China in the August of 2003. CongPai, WangYong, Heather and Joshua C. Love make the mystery of worlds unfold like the soft touches of danger. The story of this band expresses the maturity that exists in its seriousness towards the human subject. "It becomes the conundrum of itself;" Proximity Butterfly has been described in Rolling Stone magazine as an upcoming fortune of the East. Lyrically compelling and most certainly not for the soft-sighted, PB has echoed its trail throughout the vast growing landscapes of Chinawith acolorful sort of vengeance. Preparing the release of their new album through Beijing's Maybe Mars, New York City's very own D-22 Brotherhood continues to shine through the spectrum of its worldy spectacle. Displaying powerfully thunderous rumbles through Universities and clubs all around the country, the voice of singer Joshua C. Love reaches deep into your soul to find the spaces that still ache to nurture humanity. Its not just a band but a phenomena. "Nothing like this before has been seen on such a masterful scale. These guys just break all the barriers and let nothing stand in their way." After being hailed as Chengdu's most prized band, Proximity Butterfly (???? Biansehudie in Chinese) has unrelentlessly put out 5 albums, getting ready to release for 2011 a mesmirizing story of lives lost and twisted in one of China's most enduring moments, the earthquake of May 12th. Having lived through the earthquake themselves, the band has set forth upon a landscape of imagery and sonic realism that makes this album their certainly most anticipated of all. .. .. ......
