Editor’s Note
The Team
The city heats up, but it never slows down. June is here, and in the run up to Ultra Music Festival in Korea and Road to Ultra in Macau on the 13th, we have a chat with two of the biggest names in EDM. Dutch superstar Nicky Romero gives us the lowdown on his relationship with David Guetta in our A-Side (P18), and German mega producer Thomas Gold chats us through his production process in our B-Side (P22). In the spirit of Ultra, we decided to try producing a track ourselves. In Production 101 (P26) we sit down with the guys at Sol Passion Music, who reveal to us the level of skill that really goes into those huge EDM tracks. Summer’s arrival means it’s music festival season, and we’ve gathered a list of some of the world’s best, with special deals from Flight Centre to each one (P28). Check out our fashion shoot (P32) for some of the chicest urban trends for summer, and On The Streets (P44) to see how they’re being worn around Hong Kong. The weird and wonderful cocktails at Ham & Sherry’s Back Bar couldn’t go ignored this month; check out On The Rocks (P42) to see what we mean. In Boom’s Kitchen (P40) we try out the fusion cuisine at Fresh Modern Kitchen, and fall in love with their seafood creations. Of course, we’ve got more music recommendations for you in Mixer (P46) and Asian Mixer (P48), and don’t forget to check your monthly Zodiac (P58)! Find our Hidden Tracks section for some of HK’s coolest bloggers keeping us up to date with their passions, and look out for snaps of your friends in Rewind (P62). But before all that, let us guide you through the essential events on this month (P4). Sit back and buckle up; it’s gonna be a busy one!

來到六月，韓國的Ultra Music Festival迫在眉睫，澳門的Road to Ultra又將於13日舉行，我們跟兩名電子跳舞音樂
巨星傾談過——A-Side（P18）有荷蘭超級巨星Nicky Romero細數與David Guetta的合作關係；德國名製作人Thomas Gold則在B-Side（P22）回憶著他的製作生涯和給新音樂創作人的一些小貼士。
乘著Ultra精神，我們試圖製作自家EDM作品。在Production 101（P26）中向Sol Passion Music偷師，他們向我們示
範了成功電子跳舞音樂中所含的高超技術。夏天的來臨亦即是音樂節季節的來臨，我們為大家羅列了Flight Centre飛 往全球各大音樂節最優惠的機票（P28） 。還有我們的時裝拍（P32） ，介紹今夏最潮衣著；On The Streets（P44）找來香 港的街頭潮人。Ham & Sherry的Back Bar，為大家獻上最稀奇的雞尾酒，On The Rocks（P42）是不能錯過的部份；我們 還品嚐了Fresh Modern Kitchen的菜式，對他們創新的海鮮煮法不能自拔——Boom’s Kitchen（P40） 。當然少不了我
們的音樂推介Mixer（P46）和Asian Mixer（P48） 。還有別忘了查看一下你的每月生肖運情（P58） 。Hidden Tracks（P51）
繼續有一群來自香港的blogger向我們展示他們的喜好。最後不妨到Rewind（P62）看看上個月的大小派對。
不過，讓我們先為你介紹本月最觸目的節目（P4） 。所有Boomers作好準備過一個炎熱又繁忙的夏日吧！
Jules O’Brien Editor 編輯 The Nicky Romero artwork consists of approx. 3000 single triangles. It took me around 30 hours to finalise it. Each triangle is drawn and coloured by hand. One half of the motive shows the face of Nicky Romero, the other half a crumbled/exploding Fawkes mask which is a significant recognition symbol for his viral hit ‘Toulouse’. 這幅Nikcy Romero作品約由三千個單一三角形組成，
我花了大約三十小時才把它完成。每個三角形都是親手繪
畫和著色的。這份作品一半的目的是要展示Nikcy Romero
的臉孔，而另一半則是展示粉碎或爆炸中的V煞面具，那是 他在其大熱歌曲〈Toulouse〉中的一大象徵性記認。

The Sound Torch Beats on Fire
You might have seen videos of the German-made Pyroboard. Essentially, music is played into the board, and pressure from the sound waves manipulates the flow of propane gas throughout the board, causing flames to coincide with the music in colour and height. The Sound Torch is the Bluetooth speaker equivalent. It uses the same technology, but is affordable, portable, and easy to refill, using rechargeable batteries and lighter fluid. It turns off automatically if knocked off a surface, or if no audio signal is detected, meaning it’s safe(ish) to use. A party essential.

At the end of each week, nine winners were selected by the Volcom panel in Hong Kong before their submissions were sent off to Finnish skateboarding legend Arto Saari.

The winning 36 photos from the four weeks were displayed on the walls, and each of the photographers were invited to attend the event, alongside 120 more guests.
Each guest was given a postcard set of the 36 winning photos, and the photographers were each awarded $1000HKD worth of gift vouchers for Volcom Apparel. Californian talent DJ Yao spun the decks all the night, bringing everyone up on their feet as the night went on. The whole process could not have been more of a success. It just goes to show how music, art, film and sports are integral parts of modern culture - and nowadays, it seems like it’s photography that ultimately brings them all together.

PERHAPS THE MOST NOTABLE COLLABORATION, IN THAT IT’S MORE OR LESS BEEN A MATTER OF MENTOR AND PROTÉGÉ, IS HIS LONG-RUNNING WORK ALONGSIDE FRENCH MEGA DJ, DAVID GUETTA After collaborating with Avicii on multi-platinum hit ‘I Could Be The One’ in 2012, he had no reason to look back. He was headlining EDM festivals as major as Ultra Music Festival, Electric Daisy Carnival and TomorrowWorld. By this point, you would expect Romero had developed a formula for creating failsafe, chart-topping tracks. “I wish it was that easy,” he says. “Although, my experience in producing means I can tell which tracks are going to go well from an early stage.” This talent is perhaps largely to thank for the success of Rihanna’s track ‘Right Now’, which he coproduced, and Britney Spears’ ‘It Should Be Easy’ on her 2013 album Britney Jean, which he produced and co-wrote. On the collaborations, Romero notes, “I have always loved a variety of musical genres, and I find it hard to stick to one. I love working on projects where I can blend styles and experiment with different sounds. These two collaborations definitely enabled me to do that!” Perhaps the most notable collaboration, in that it’s more or less been a matter of mentor and protégé, is his long-running work alongside

French mega DJ, David Guetta. As a business employee finds a boss who favours them, Romero found Guetta. “At first I started off doing a few remixes for him, and once he saw what I could do, he offered me a record deal on his label. I have learnt so much from him; he really took the time to teach me and develop my knowledge. He showed me tricks on arranging and recording tracks, writing piano parts, editing vocals, and so much more.” Since beginning work alongside David Guetta, Romero’s production style has certainly developed. There’s no denying a profound difference between the underground trance sounds in ‘Toulouse’ and his 2015 release ‘Warriors’, an uplifting and lyrical stadium-house track fit for a festival of thousands. Asked to define the musical elements in his music that make it so successful, he replies, “I think people love the music I play nowadays because it’s pretty full on, yet it sparks emotions in people through the vocals and lyrics. It makes you forget about all else going on and just makes you want to dance.” He gives advice regarding the ultimate set-up of a studio for
aspiring producers: “Before setting up a studio, you need to do thorough research before spending your hard earned money. Don’t just buy what others have. Do your research, play around, ask around, and find your own preferred set up. As a starting point, I would recommend buying some great studio speakers. If they’re too expensive, invest in a great pair of studio headphones. That already makes a real difference.” Despite living the dream, travelling internationally to play to horizons of euphoric crowds, Romero says that in the end, “There’s no place like home.” If his career could be put
Romero則找到了Guetta。 「我最初為他做

FROM SPINNING TRANCE IN BERLIN’S UNDERGROUND TO RACING TO THE TOP OF THE EDM SCENE, THOMAS GOLD’S GOT THE MIDAS TOUCH - AND HE ISN’T AFRAID TO ADMIT IT.

hile the Netherlands might be the birthplace of multiple EDM behemoths, its neighbour also boasts an impressive collection. When Nicky Romero was just getting used to his turntables, German Thomas Gold was becoming an established progressive house producer. Although he tells us he never lusted after commercial DJ status, the EDM megastar shone too brightly to stay in the shadow of Berlin’s underground scene. He began his career as a trance DJ, seeking pleasure in the genre’s intensive, transcendent sounds. Though as his reputation began to build, his sights began to change. A remix of Adele’s ’Set Fire to the Rain’ in 2012 earned him millions of YouTube hits, putting him well and truly in the spotlight for the first time. “I think I made one of the biggest steps in my career when I remixed Adele. It gave me a boost into the most commercial side of dance music.” He adds, “Not that I had the wish to be seen as a commercial artist, but it’s always a great feeling to get feedback on this kind of scale.” In 2012 he released his debut compilation on Axwell’s label, Axtone Recordings, a period of his career that he also thanks for his success. “Another big step was joining the Axtone family, which helped me work on my sound even more Axwell only accepts stuff that’s 100%.

It helped me see different aspects of my music differently.” His track ‘Sing2Me”, released under Axtone, brought the label to the top of the charts. His anthemic style became clear in his next release, ‘Remember’, which earned him spots on the main stages of the world’s biggest festivals. Gold stands proudly behind his production process. “I’m very picky when it comes to my productions. When others call it a day, I’ll continue tweaking and pushing knobs and faders to take the track to the next step.” When asked how long it takes him to create nowadays, he says, “It all depends on the structure of the track. Are there vocals? Is it a collaboration? All these aspects can considerably add to the length of the production time.” Despite the need for proficient production skills, Gold highlights that in fact, to create a great EDM track, there are other skills involved. “I think the most important element is good songwriting. It all starts from there. Then you need a good idea of how to put the songwriting down into music that meets the vibe. From there it’s all about the production and arrangement and how you get it sounding in the end.” But the creation of an EDM track doesn’t necessarily involve adding a vocal track, Gold points out. “Vocals don’t necessarily boost a track. There are tracks that would work better without vocals. But it’s true that, in

EDM From Scratch: A Guide
he term ‘EDM’ blankets a huge range of subgenres, from techno and house to trance and dubstep. But, most commonly heard on the main stages at EDM festivals are names like David Guetta, whose tracks seem to have a failsafe - and crowd-pleasing structural formula. How easy is it really, to produce the type of vast EDM track that earns acts like Guetta so much money? What are the real technical talents underlying these names, amassing crowds so big that the genre has essentially become a lifestyle? In an attempt to find out, we asked Craig Lopez at Sol Passion Music to sit down with us and take us through the process, step by step. In two hours, we’d made an EDM track. Obviously, everyone has his or her own set up when it comes to equipment. At Sol Passion Music, we used Ableton Live 9 Suite, along with a PUSH controller by Ableton, which doubles up as a way of inputting musical ideas. Once it was fired up, we began to create our track - the end aim of which was an EDM track in the style of David Guetta. In the studio it was clear that a huge amount of dedication and technological knowledge is needed to bring out the best of a track - we couldn’t have done it without help. However, it all seemed to boil down to ten key steps:

金屬的每下拍子響起。之後使用「側鏈壓 縮」於踏板鼓每下響聲中調低重低音的音 量，產生EDM浮華跳躍的聲音。 步驟4：添加合成部分 Big Kick plugin
Step 1: DRUMS The first thing you should do is enter the kick drum. Pick a Kick Drum sound using a plugin called Big Kick by Plugin Boutique, and modify it to make it sound more ‘EDM’. Enter it into the program using the PUSH controller, on every beat (EDM tracks tend to be in 4/4, with a tempo of 128bpm). Do the same for a snare drum on every second beat. Then, add three sets of hi-hats: one set on every backbeat (that is, between every beat), and 2 more to mix up the rhythm a bit. Then, enter a drum kit sample to fill out the rhythm, and put it on loop.
octave and played it on every beat of the bar. Then we used ‘sidechain compression’ - an EDM producer’s best friend, which brings down the volume of the bass whenever the kick drum sounds. This creates the flashy, throbbing sound in EDM.
Step 2: CHORDS Create a chord sequence. This is most easily done using a simple instrument sound on the PUSH controller. We used a piano sound, and switched the PUSH controller into ‘chord’ mode so we could easily create chords.
Step 5: ADD EFFECTS Use plugins on Ableton Live to add effects to your tracks. Using reverb and delay on each track balances the sounds together, joining them up. Pan the middle tracks (e.g. mid bass) to both sides, using the ‘Haas Effect’. The Haas effect makes the sound on the right side trigger milliseconds after the left side, tricking the brain into hearing a wider sound.
Step 3: BASS In order to get a good bass sound, we used HIVE, a synthesiser plugin by software company u-he. We split the bass part into two: we used a pad synth effect to create a mid bass in a higher octave, then picked a plucky bass sound in a low
Step 4: SYNTH Next, add in your synth parts. Copy and paste the chords from the piano part into a new MIDI track. Then use Hive to make an arpeggiator out of the chords. This will add a whole new dimension to the track, and you can filter it to give it a dynamic pattern.
Step 6: EDM SOUNDS It wouldn’t be an EDM track without some big flashy synth chords. Duplicate the piano track again, and use HIVE to find an epic EDM sound.
HIVE plugin
Step 7: VOCALS/MELODY Create a melody on the PUSH controller, and play it onto the track. Otherwise (as David Guetta tends to do) find someone to sing vocals and record an audio track. Step 8: ARRANGE Now you’ve created all the music, you can sculpt the structure of your track. Drag all of your loops and recordings into ‘Arrange View’. Loop it all to however long you want. We looped ours to 3½ minutes. Step 9: BUILD-UPS + DROPS By muting instruments throughout the track, you can create introductions, build-ups and drops. These sections in our track were also helped by using white noise (through the ‘Amplitude Envelope’) to create build-ups in the intro and breakdown. We also added snares and echoing kick drums for build-ups and drops. Step 10: BREAKDOWN Add a breakdown section for variation. At first we muted everything except the drums and the arpeggiator (onto which we added effects), before bringing in the other tracks for the final, climactic section of the song. Bring the track to a nice close by muting tracks one by one.

Nonetheless, the lineup is great, with highlights including The Horrors, Simian Mobile Disco, Public Service Broadcasting, Dub Pistols and Glass Animals. It’s a family friendly festival, and easy to access via train from London.

This is a festival renowned for its diversity. With a mixture of indie, rock, hip hop and EDM, some consider Exit to be the best festival in the world. The line up this year sparkles, with names like Faithless, The Prodigy, Motorhead, Eagles of Death Metal and John Newman headlining.

Ultra Music Festival
Possibly the most hardcore festival in the world, Burning Man takes place in a desert, and has been compared by many to a prolonged acid trip. Throughout the week festival goers experience tribal culture alongside contemporary music (the line up for this year’s festival has not yet been confirmed). It’s a harsh environment and a surreal experience, and as a result it’s completely unforgettable. Best enjoyed with plenty of fancy dress and sunscreen.
Ultra Music Festival only takes a short breather before returning to Tokyo’s Odaiba Ultra Park in September. So far the only names to have been confirmed are the king of trance Armin Van Buuren, David Guetta, Nicky Romero and Skrillex. Seems like these boys will have spent a large chunk of this year gracing Asia with the delights of Ultra.

Chef Jowett Yu
Insider Pan Fried Garoupa Fillet
Top: Manchego and Iberico Ham Toasties Bottom: Pan Fried Chorizo & Shrimps
t’s hard to pigeonhole which cuisine this restaurant has taken on board, but what’s obvious is that their expertise lies in seafood. Located at the junction of Hollywood Road and Peel Street, Fresh Modern Kitchen plays around with different kinds of meat, mixing traditional elements of world cuisine with, as its name suggests, modern twists. A number of people might say it’s easy to miss this restaurant when walking along Hollywood Road towards Sheung Wan but really, it’s a piece of cake if you know where to look. A huge Fresh Modern Kitchen logo is projected on a building opposite the restaurant. When you see it, turn left, and find yourself welcomed into the slick eatery. Vintage industrial décor complements the wooden furniture and it’s hard to miss the impressive, stylish open bar. They leave the windows open so customers at the bar tables can overlook the streets while enjoying their cocktails, making it a great place to hang out with friends. One of their signature cocktails, Muddle Mission, a drink with lemongrass infused vodka, is a refreshing choice after a long day. There’s a wide range of food on their menu - not only seafood, but also steak and lamb racks. However, the seafood options are almost impossible to resist, and we have a few recommendations. Fusion
I
lovers, pay attention: try one of their main courses – Pan Fried Garoupa Fillet. It definitely won’t disappoint you. The Garoupa fillet is extra juicy and full of flavour. What makes this dish stand out from the others is the side: fried dumplings made of pork, red clams and sea urchin. At first it tastes like a traditional Chinese dumpling, but the taste of fresh shellfish slowly unravels on your tongue, and it’s a lovely twist. Meat lovers could try the fusion starter – Croissants with Peking Duck. This dish works around the idea of the standard Peking duck you find in Chinese restaurants, but the croissants give it a bold flair. It’s perfectly crispy, and is splashed in a delightful seafood sauce. Executive Chef Daniel Ku said that all the ingredients are imported from local suppliers and the restaurant works hard throughout the day to keep the products as fresh as possible. Fusion is all about innovative ideas, and it seems like Fresh Modern Kitchen will never run out of them. Although the restaurant specialises in seafood, the menu has taken simple ingredients in all forms and has created a next level fusion cuisine. Try not to grow too attached to any one dish, because the menu’s always changing. Every time you go, there’ll be another mouth watering choice, and chances are, it came from the deep blue. A welcome addition to Hollywood Road.

Many will have been to Ham & Sherry, Michelin star chef Jason Atherton’s expansion (initially, before it grew its own identity) from the commonly overcrowded 22 Ships a few doors down. Its tapas-esque style of small dishes and meats, alongside a wide selection of sherry as accompaniment, makes for the perfect lunchtime destination. The paprika octopus and garlic clams are particular favourites, but guests must try any specials they chalk up on the wall; often a hearty paella or steak makes it onto the menu.

ACTRESS DJ-KICKS MIX Release Date 發行日期: 15 May 2015 Label 出版商: !K7
Despite the oversaturation of free online mixes and the ongoing Spotify monopoly, it appears that the official mix-tape is still very much part of the musical landscape. The DJ-Kicks series, courtesy of Berlin label !K7, has been running for two decades having released over fifty instalments in that time. In the early years DJs and producers were invited to curate mixes that either leaned heavily towards the dance floor or the down tempo daze of lazy afternoons. In the 1990s the likes of Carl Craig and DJ Cam dominated, while more recently the invitation has extended to more ‘traditional’ musicians such as Nicolette or Hot Chip. On the latest release the British producer Actress offers up one of
046
BOOM MAGAZINE
the most eclectic mixes for some time - ranging from the impenetrable (‘Impari’ by Simbiosi) and the ambient (‘Anticipation’ by John Beltran) to Detroit electro (‘Look at me’ by Reel by Real) and house ('Windy City Club’ by Chez n Trent), alongside an exclusive track of his own. With a first E.P. conceived and created amid a cloud of weed smoke and claustrophobia in his bedroom-cumstudio in 2008, Actress’ sound was (and remains) unique. Since then he has released a further three LPs, each one influenced by his own personal history - the literature he is reading at the time, and the visual cues that surround him.

REVIEW: BOSE QC25 HEADPHONES For the Travelling Audiophile
Superior noise cancelling and lightweight design make the QC25 a winner for crowded Hong Kong commutes.
M
ore comfortable than new school headphone brands, or heavy DJ types, the QC25 are an excellent choice for everyday listening via your mobile phone.

In our test, the headphones completely cut out any extraneous sound on a crowded bus, or on the MTR during rush hour. It's just you, and your music. The QC25 provide a balanced sound with vibrant vocals and a full bass for audiophile purists. The non-bulky construction feels light on your head and makes it comfortable for long listening sessions.

The Verdict: A leading name in audio for over 50 years, Bose boasts better technology than trendy upstart headphone manufacturers.

In September 2014 I graduated from DHBW BadenWuerttemberg university (facebook.com/DHBW. Mannheim) and received my Bachelor of Arts degree in Media Management and Communication. Since then I have been working as Junior Marketing Manager for a real estate company in Heidelberg, Germany. In my spare time I’m working on different marketing and design related projects.
My studies were also the beginning of my illustrating
career. I always loved Photoshop, InDesign and illustrator.
When I saw the first LowPoly portraits they immediately sparked my interest and I started researching and learning
about the method. I started watching tutorials and
creating my first own portraits. Only two months later a
famous German comedian featured my LowPoly portrait
of himself via social media. Ever since I have been working even harder on my illustration skills and steadily looking to improve them in any way. It even brought me to consider
taking courses abroad in order to get a Master’s degree in Creative Advertising.
於2014年九月在DHBW Baden Württemberg University
畢業，並取得媒體管理和傳訊(Media
Management
and
Communication)的文學士學位，自此我就在德國海德堡一
家房地產公司擔任初級營銷經理。在我有空的時候，我會進 行不同與營銷和設計有關的項目。
我一直很喜歡使用Photoshop、InDesign和Illustrator。
當我最初看到第一批低多邊形作品的時候，馬上就引起了我
的興趣。我開始觀看教學視頻，並創作了我自己的第一批作 品。僅在兩個月後，一名德國的著名喜劇演員通過社交媒體 特載了我用他個人肖像設計而成的低多邊形作品。自此，我 一直更努力地琢磨自己的插畫技巧，並希望能夠透過不同方 式求進，這令我甚至考慮過到國外進修並考取一個創意廣告 (Creating Advertising)的碩士學位。

“We want people to buy things that they can keep, treasure for many years and not throw away.” Rolf Hay - founder of Hay Recently, the retailers finally brought one of my most admired Danish lifestyle brands, Hay, to the brick and mortar stores in Hong Kong.

Notes From The Underground POCKET MONSTERS By: Sync Sing Sin
syncsingsin
“Wouldn’t it be fun if we made some synths and sold them alongside our jeans?” It might have started out as a little gimmick, but once you collaborate with a serious manufacturer (with humour and taste), you end up having a fun, stylish product that might actually be useful. I’m talking about the Cheap Monday x Teenage Engineering ‘Pocket Operators’. On paper this might remind you of the KORG Volcas, (both product lines contain a synth, a drum machine and a bass synth; Korg followed up with a sampler later on) I suppose they’re probably targeting the same market? Everything looks surprisingly simple. Basically, it’s a circuit board with buttons, knobs and a screen attached (which comes with awesome ‘GAME and WATCH’ style
graphics). It does have a learning curve (each button has more than one function and the knobs perform differently under modes) but nothing about it is rocket science.. As opposed to using them in your studio, these units are more like something you’d play around with when you commute. You can chain all the units together via a standard mini jack. They play well along whatever generates a click track. Apart from TE’s flagship OP-1 you can sync them with the KORG SyncKontrol app, which means it will slave to your source of choice, and play well with Volcas! They don’t sound amazing, but are perfectly acceptable. They come with that fun, lo-fi feeling that made vintage Casio units go rare on eBay, with some impressive tweakability,. And if you worry about their durability of these bare circuit boards, worry not, as TE is coming up with a case for

If You Don’t Know Now You Know Joseph ”REVEREND RUN” Simmons By: Pro B Lam problam
Even if you’re not a hip hop fan, you will have heard of the legends RunD.M.C – who were the first group to popularize the combination of DJ and MC. After the group’s DJ, Jam Master Jay, was shot and killed in 2002, Run-D.M.C disbanded, and there were no more releases under that name. Both Joseph Simmons, aka. Reverend Run and Darryl ‘D.M.C.’ McDaniels have tried to release solo albums, but with little success
compared to Run-D.M.C releases. Rev. Run then joined forces with MTV and made the reality show Run’s House, from which he earned newfound popularity in 2005. Last week Rev.

Stylicious Cozy Summer By: Elma Li Convé
elmaliconve.blogspot.hk
Another season, another stylish time. It seems like summer has already arrived - it’s crept on us so quickly. What is the must have item and selected colour in this hot season? How do you make it both stylish and comfortable? I would go with the basic white. It goes with so many different things, is light to wear, and has a sunny look, which is perfect for summer. In the photo, I style the white with black stripe high-waist straight cut pants: a monochrome look. The cosy high-waisted cut makes you appear taller straight away.
There are quite a lot of choices in the market this season. You can easily find the chic and sophisticated jumpsuit, patchwork trousers, or even Kimono designs in comfortable cuts. International brand such as Dior, Pucci, Tommy Hilfiger, Ralph Lauren and Gucci etc, are all creating trendy and summery looks in their Spring Summer 2015 collections. On the more formal side, there are also plenty of choices for the office ladies - such as the classy black or white shirt with straight cut trousers plus the minimalist jewellery for a sleek professional look.

Wine and Music Austrian Indulgence, Pt. 2 By: Roy Khoo roykhoo
As for the most striking breed of wine grape, it must be the national treasure, Grüner Veltliner, a kind of white wine grape, which occupies 30% of the total planting area. The acidity of it is relatively high and its genre varies. The wine body of entry level is easy and fresh to drink and the classic scent will be limes, grains, herbs and white pepper. Advanced level like DAC Reserve or SMARAGD will be more suitable after long years of standing. It will develop a deeper taste of flower scent, peach, nuts, bread and honey, and is also a good ingredient for Austrian cuisines. Zweigelt is the main breed of Red Wine in Austria because it is easier to plant. The wine body is rich with strong taste of cherries and spicy seasonings.
Indeed we should not miss the protogenic breed of grape, Blaufränkisch. It is late maturing with a foresty scent. Mittelburgenland is the main planting area for Blaufränkisch. It can be brewed into red wine with high stringency and strong taste of tannins and minerals in a compact structure. However, after years of standing, tannins will become lighter and smoother. You should definitely visit the Loisium Winery and Museum at Langenlois in the suburb of Vienna for further experience. Apart from getting to know the brewing culture and drenching yourself into the nature, you can actually smell, taste and even sleep in the vineyard. They apply sensory methods to let you experience the process of winebrewing as grapes from extraction
stage to different stages of brewing and finally the mellow wine. At the end, you can even have a sip of the wine and dance in the music with your lover. It will absolutely linger on your mind and ultimately, make you a slave to pleasure. 另外最受大眾注目的葡萄品種，不用
多說，當然是佔總種植面積約三成的國寶
當然亦不得不提原生葡萄品種
Blaufränkisch(藍弗朗克)，它是果皮呈
黑色的晚熟型品種，香味有如森林裡的 野果、芬芳的櫻桃和辛辣香草藥等等。
Mittelburgenland是Blaufränkisch
的主產區，Blaufränkisch能釀制出結構
緊密，收歛性強又富單寧和礦物味濃的 葡萄酒，但隨著陳年後，單寧又會被馴服 得如絲綢般柔滑。
如果想進一步體驗奧地利釀酒文化
級白葡萄Grüner Veltliner。其風格多變，
及釀酒過程。推薦大家前往維也納市郊
和比較容易飲用，典型的香味是青檸、綠
酒立方酒莊及博物館。
酸度相對比較高。入門級的酒體入口清爽
豆、草本植物和白胡椒。而進階版如DAC
的朗根羅伊斯(Langenlois)的Loisium 這裡除了讓你全方位瞭解到釀酒文
Reserve或SMARAGD就適合擺放陳年，而
化，感受大自然的和諧，更能讓你嗅著、
等深層次的種種味道，它當然也是配搭奧
一番風情。而且還用感官方式令你猶如
且會發展出花香蜜桃、堅果、烤麵包、蜂蜜 地利菜餚的好幫手。
Zweigelt則是奧地利最為主要的其中
一種紅酒品種，因為較易栽種所以佔紅酒 種植面積大約三份之一。酒體豐饒而帶濃 郁櫻桃漿果及辛辣香料芬香。
吃著葡萄及睡在葡萄園中，令你體驗另 一粒葡萄，由榨壓開始，設身處地感受各 釀酒過程，將你慢慢變成醇酒。
最後你更可輕呷一口當地的美酒，
伴隨音樂和愛人在時空中飛舞。牽動你 心弦，絕對令你樂而忘返!
