The group is known for their adept fusion of ancient Chinese musical elements with modern pop sensibilities, which has resonated with a wide audience both domestically and internationally. Incorporating traditional instruments and poetic lyricism, their songs often bring to life the rich tapestry of China's history and culture.
With a prolific string of releases like "上巳节" (Shangsi Festival), "寒食节" (Cold Food Festival), and "长安记" (Record of Chang'an), 音阙诗听 has created a musical identity that pays homage to various traditional Chinese festivals and historical narratives. Their music can be characterized by its storytelling nature, as seen in songs like "黑童话" (Black Fairy Tale) and "元宵" (Lantern Festival), with versions focusing on both the festive ("热闹篇") and tender ("温情篇") aspects of the celebrations. Through their work, 音阙诗听 brings the essence of ancient China into the modern age, allowing listeners to experience the depths of traditional culture in a new and accessible format.
