专辑介绍：

亚伦．帕克斯 Aaron Parks (钢琴)
马特．派曼 Matt Pemman (贝斯)
奈特．史密斯 Nate Smith (鼓手)
具公信力的NPR〈National Public Radio〉盛赞Nir Felder：
"吉他救世主"〈The Next Big Guitarist〉。加拿大《蒙特利尔公报》
〈Montreal Gazette〉称之为"不可思议"的音乐家。
"Jimi Hendrix Award"首奖得主、Greg Osby、John Scofield等大师争相邀请合作。
四位才华横溢音乐家相互激荡出强烈音乐化学反应。
江湖传说中的"美国NCC"〈开玩笑乱讲，别当真！〉，NPR〈National Public Radio〉，
是这么称呼Nir Felder的："吉他救世主"〈The Next Big Guitarist〉。
而NPR一向具有公信力，所以，Felder的音乐值得被注意。
Nir Felder十分年轻，西元2005年才刚从波士顿的百克里音乐学院毕业。
就学期间曾赢得校内吉他大赏，"Jimi Hendrix Award"首奖，想想看，
在集合一堆天才的地方击败所有其他天才，当然厉害！也因此，
一毕业就有一堆已经成名的大师邀他合作，如萨克斯风手Greg Osby、
吉他手John Scofield、才女贝斯手Esperanza Spalding等等。
《Golden Age》是Nir Felder加盟老字号新包装的OKeh唱片公司首张作品，
邀请另外三位同样年轻且才华洋溢的音乐家合作，钢琴手Aaron Parks、
贝斯手Matt Pemman与鼓手Nate Smith。专辑标题《Golden Age》，
Felder想表达的想法很深刻："我们活在一个黄金年代吗？"、"你经历过所谓的黄金年代吗？
"、"什么是黄金年代？"、"我们的年代是在变好，还是变坏？"...，
藉由音乐表达自己对这个时代一切现象的反思。年纪轻轻已有"乐以载道"的野心，
千万不可小觑！最特别的地方在于他音乐里不时取样穿插一些过往名人的言谈纪录，
你可能听出来谁是谁的，包括纽约洋基队着名铁人Lou Gehrig、人权斗士Malcolm X，
以及一生功过褒贬不一的美国前总统Richard Nixon等等。
每首曲子都很有味道，比方说第五轨《Code》，
有点像是遥对"骊歌"〈Auld Lang Syne〉致敬的调调。至于其他曲目，就请您自行品味了。
噢对了，Nir Felder小时后的偶像是Stevie Ray Vaughan，
据说他现在还在弹那把13岁时花250美金买下的Stratocaster呢！

The credible NPR <National Public Radio> praised Nir Felder:
"The Next Big Guitarist". Canadian "Montreal Gazette"
<Montreal Gazette> called him an "incredible" musician.
"Jimi Hendrix Award" first prize winner, Greg Osby, John Scofield and other masters are vying to invite him to cooperate.
Four talented musicians stimulate each other to produce a strong musical chemical reaction.
The legendary "American NCC" <just kidding, don't take it seriously!>, NPR <National Public Radio>,
This is how Nir Felder is called: "The Next Big Guitarist".
And NPR has always been credible, so Felder's music deserves attention.
Nir Felder is very young, only graduated from Berklee College of Music in Boston in 2005.
During his studies, he won the school's Guitar Award, the "Jimi Hendrix Award" first prize, think about it,
In a place where a bunch of geniuses gather, defeating all other geniuses is of course amazing! And therefore,
As soon as I graduated, a lot of already famous masters invited him to cooperate, such as saxophonist Greg Osby,
Guitarist John Scofield, talented bassist Esperanza Spalding and so on.
<Golden Age> is Nir Felder's first work for the old-fashioned repackaged OKeh Records,
Invited three other equally young and talented musicians to collaborate, pianist Aaron Parks,
Bassist Matt Pemman and drummer Nate Smith. Album title <Golden Age>,
Felder wants to express a very profound idea: "Are we living in a golden age?", "Have you experienced the so-called golden age?
", "What is the golden age?", "Is our era getting better or worse?"...,
Express your reflections on all the phenomena of this era through music. Ambitious to "carry the truth with music" at a young age,
Don't underestimate it! The most special thing is that his music occasionally samples and intersperses some past celebrity talks,
You may hear who is who, including New York Yankees famous Iron Man Lou Gehrig, human rights fighter Malcolm X,
And former US President Richard Nixon, whose life's merits and demerits are mixed.
Every song is very tasteful, for example, the fifth track <Code>,
It's kind of like a tribute to "Auld Lang Syne". As for other tracks, please taste them yourself.
Oh yes, Nir Felder's idol when he was a child was Stevie Ray Vaughan,
It is said that he is still playing the Stratocaster he bought for 250 US dollars when he was 13 years old!
