No Performance is Li Song and Zhu Wenbo. This duo started in Beijing, 2015. They wrote and played compositions focus on acoustic instruments, environment sound, computer algorithm and random sequence. In 2018, Li Song moved to London.
In 2020, Zhu Wenbo suggested a recording plan: to write some composition pieces for each other and then perform solo or with local friends. They used one month on writing, exchanged on a same day, then another two months on recording.
