    Chinese American Bear Release New Single ‘No No Yeah Yeah (不不好啊好啊)’

    Published on

    Seattle-based act Chinese American Bear, the duo of Anne Tong and Bryce Barsten, have released their new single “No No Yeah Yeah (不不好啊好啊)” through Moshi Moshi Records.

    Watch the official visualizer for “No No Yeah Yeah (不不好啊好啊)” on YouTube:

    “This song came about one day because we were joking about wanting to write a song using only ‘No’ and ‘Yeah. Can we make a song with such simple lyrics, be engaging and fun still? It felt like the ultimate test. We obviously failed because we added some other lyrics. But it was fun writing with those constraints because it forced us to get creative with different melodies. It’s easier thinking of melodies when you don’t have to think about the lyrics, so it lent itself to that well. We came up with too many melodies in the end, and had to whittle it down.

    “There are so many melodies and rhythms flying around all the No’s and Yeah’s. It feels jam packed, but the arrangement is sparse to help combat the busyness. Just a thumping bass synth, heavily processed drums, and some glittery stuff here and there. Bryce’s favorite part of the song is the little reverb’ed out bridge into the last verse. The chord progression changes for the last verse, just that once, and it’s really pretty for a moment, then transitions out of it quickly. Our next challenge will be to write a song with only one word!”

    Chinese American Bear comprise of married musicians Anne Tong and Bryce. The band recently toured internationally with the release of their second album, Wah!!!
