In May 1864, namely the 3rd year of Tongzhi period of Qing dynasty, Liu Mingchuan (1836-1896), general of the Huai Army, led the troops of Qing Empire to fight with the Taiping Army, and finally liberated Changzhou. When Liu moved into the mansion, his soldiers didn't know the plate and used it as a manger. One night when reading a book under the oil lamp, Liu heard clear metal clanks from out of the window. All was quiet at dead of night, so the clanks sounded clear and loud.

According to CODA critic Greg Masters, Davis created among the darkest and most radical auras, feelings, and moods in 20th-century music on Dark Magus. Reviewing the reissue in 1997 for JazzTimes, Tom Terrell said this kind of music would never be heard again, deeming it "tomorrow's sound yesterday ... a terrifyingly exhilarating aural asylum of wails, howls, clanks, chanks, telltale heartbeats, wah wah quacks, white noise and loud silences."Terrell, Tom (October 1997). Review: Dark Magus. JazzTimes.

Liu came to the stable following the sounds, and saw that a horse was eating grass with the bronze rings on the headstall hitting the manger from time to time to make the clanks. Liu was so curious that he bent to look carefully with the lantern, and found the manger wide and deep with fuzzy decorative patterns on its four sides. Liu tried to push the manger but failed. It was very unusual and he decided to check it out after the dawn.

" Jenkins concluded, "Shot mostly in lesser-known neighborhoods, Close Your Eyes presents a London that many American moviegoers will not have seen before. But the plot, loosely derived from Madison Smartt Bell's 'Doctor Sleep,' is utterly stale." Stephen Holden of The New York Times called Close Your Eyes "a flashy, mildly tingly British thriller... adapted from Madison Smartt Bell's novel 'Doctor Sleep'". Holden said, "As the movie clanks along, relying on montages that reshuffle the same enigmatic images over and over, the fragments don't add up to a coherent jigsaw puzzle.

The first track, "Opening Sky", contains the didg pairs up with Roach’s ambient guitar. The second track, “Ancestral Passage”, features the eerie muted radio voices, giving way to rolls of thunder and desert-wind pads. In the third track, "Serpent Gulch", contains driving, percussion-fed downward charge with a rhythm built on analog-synth lines, clay pots, drums and Parnham’s curling, insistently chanting didg. The fourth track "Somewhere Between" consists of ritualistic rhythms, featuring the tones of a waterphone vying with sharp metallic clanks and clatters, the patterns coming out like a makeshift invocation, Parnham’s hypnotic drones stirring the mix.

The band then fell silent as Adams worked with his other project the dulcimer-led instrumental band, Memory Drawings, but a very limited handmade 7" single "Chimneys etc" appeared in 2018, followed by a critically appraised new studio album, Belmont Slope, in September 2018. In 2019, Richard Adams released two near solo records under The Declining Winter moniker. Firstly a collaboration with Leeds-based designers Studio Build and brewing company Northern Brew Co. on a 7" record entitled "UTE", which came with a craft beer of the same name. Then came "Why Clanks" - a short run book and CDr released by the Manchester-based short run print label Paper Piano Press.

Solar Shears is the third studio album and fourth album overall by Scottish Celtic fusion band Shooglenifty. After the critical acclaim given to their underground second album A Whisky Kiss (1996), the band left Greentrax Recordings and signed to Vertical Records in the UK and Compass Records in the US and hired long time producer Jim Sutherland to produce their new album. The album sees the band expand their self-described "acid croft" sound, featuring a wide range of musical influences such as worldbeat, Eastern music, African music, psychedelic music, bluegrass, breakbeat and techno fused with a traditional Scottish Celtic music sound. With this album, Sutherland introduced many unorthodox approaches to the band's music, including looped beats, scratching, electro-atmospherics and sampled 'discovered sounds' from industrial clanks and rumbles to snatches of telephone conversation and recorded pelican crossing announcements.

Paul de Barros of DownBeat wrote, "It would be easy to dismiss the supergroup Hudson as mere boomer nostalgia, but that would overlook just how vigorous, original, engaged and downright pleasurable this welcome debut sounds.... The band jumps deep into free territory on the title- track opener, an archeo-futuristic jam that spins raunchy, fuzzed guitar and skronky keyboard clanks around a throbbing, ceremonial beat". Seth Colter Walls of Pitchfork Media stated, "This is not the most fiery music DeJohnette has collaborated on, in his eighth decade. But the peaceable mastery that moves through Hudson does have the distinction of feeling comfortable without being too predictable". John Fordham in his review for The Guardian added, "The group's slightly clunky Native American chanting might have been better replaced by sampled field-recordings with instrumental decoration, but this is an elite jazz outfit collectively telling a compelling new story".
