I was video-calling my cousin in Vancouver last night when she suddenly groaned and shoved her phone toward the camera. ‘Look! Ten Diligent Skies just dropped their new album, but I can’t play it here!’ The screen showed their gorgeous album cover – musical notes weaving through silk road patterns – but every song was grayed out with that dreaded ‘Not available in your region’ message.
Her frustration took me back to my first year studying abroad, when I’d spend hours trying to stream the latest Chinese drama episodes. That particular mix of homesickness and digital exclusion hits different – it’s not just about entertainment, but about staying connected to the cultural heartbeat back home.
The new album ‘万里长歌’ (Endless Songs) sounds incredible from what I’ve read. Eleven tracks mapping musical journeys along the ancient Silk Road? My cousin described scrolling through the tracklist like browsing an invisible museum – she could see the titles but couldn’t hear the music. ‘They’re calling it a symphony across millennia,’ she sighed, ‘but all I’m hearing is silence.’
What makes it harder is how interactive these releases have become. The group released ten ‘letters across time’ with voice messages from the members – digital artifacts that overseas fans can barely access. My cousin showed me their fan group chat, filled with screenshots of loading errors and buffering symbols where beautiful music should be.
It’s not just about missing out on the music itself. There’s this campaign where fans can unlock group signed photos if support numbers reach 500,000. Overseas supporters watch from the digital sidelines, unable to participate in these collective moments that define modern fandom.
The irony? These songs celebrate cultural exchange along the ancient Silk Road, yet digital borders prevent that very exchange today. My cousin joked, ‘The silk road connected civilizations, but my internet connection can’t even cross provincial lines.’
So to everyone refreshing streaming apps overseas, seeing those error messages where your favorite artists’ new releases should be – I feel you. That particular blend of excitement and disappointment is its own unique flavor of homesickness. How many times have you faced the geo-blocking wall while trying to stay connected to culture back home?
