About Stolen
Stolen formed in Chengdu, in China’s Sichuan province; and more precisely at the Sichuan Conservatory of Music in 2009. The line-up consists of Liang Yi (vocals), FangDe (guitar), JunYang (bass), YuFeng (drums) and Duan Xuan (keyboards), joined since 2012 by French visual artist Formol, who handles the band’s live visuals.
After the EP “Strange Old-fashioned Entertainment” (2013) and the album “Loop” (2015, D Force Records), the band began working with Berlin-based producer Mark Reeder, who produced their 2017 self-titled EP. Reeder, together with Micha Adam, also produced the album “Fragment”, released on October 26, 2018 through Reeder’s reactivated MFS label. The Reeder connection led to the band opening for New Order on a run of European dates in October 2019, including shows in Berlin and Paris.
The album “Eroded Creation” followed on December 19, 2022, and the EP “I Generated” in September 2024, supported by a UK and European tour that year. “Cacophonic Symphony”, released in April 2026, is the band’s most recent album, and the July dates at The George Tavern are the band’s first announced London shows since its release.
Below is the love release “Dance Tunnel 26′ Long Mix (live)” on which the band deconstructed and rearranged several of the band’s classic works, adapting them to their current sound. Tracks included are “Electric Baby”, “Space Intruders”, “Pay”, “AI Arena”, “Copy Shop”, “Why We Choose To Die In Berlin” and “Overfeed”. The whole comes as a 26+ minute long track.
Chief editor of Side-Line – which basically means I spend my days wading through a relentless flood of press releases from labels, artists, DJs, and zealous correspondents. My job? Strip out the promo nonsense, verify what’s actually real, and decide which stories make the cut and which get tossed into the digital void. Outside the news filter bubble, I’m all in for quality sushi and helping raise funds for Ukraine’s ongoing fight against the modern-day axis of evil. Besides music I’m also an SEO and AI content flow specialist and have an interest in everything finance from stocks to crypto. There is music in everything!
Since you’re here …
… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.
Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.
If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
