麻瓜是一个器乐摇滚创作计划，属于音乐人刘洋，作品涉及后摇滚、数学摇滚、氛围等元素。位于中国湖南西部小城张家界。
在2009年由湖南省会长沙返回故乡张家界之前，刘洋一直是另一支后摇滚乐队48V的吉他手。因为喜爱不能中断，刘洋重新开始了创作，并在平稳庸常的世事之外，创造了自己的声音世界。
2014年，麻瓜加入1724唱片。由2016年开始，他给出了7张唱片、总计210钟时长的音乐作品，由后摇滚、数学摇滚开始，向着氛围音乐的世界一路下沉，幸福而且孤独。
麻瓜创作的声音，往往通过吉他主导的旋律、低缓的背景人声和音效，描摹并再造那些貌似安静的场景。
这和麻瓜的目的一致：在平庸的日常和模式化的音乐类型中，找到并完成新的声音。

Muggle is an instrumental rock project including post-rock, math-rock and ambient, comes from Zhang Jiajie, a small town located in the west of Hu Nan province.
In 2009, Liu Yang, the guitarist of 48v——another post-rock band in Chang Sha, left for his hometown, Zhang Jiajie, a few months after that, Muggle was established by Liu Yang and Zhao Min as a studio band insists in no-performing. Muggle joined 1724, the record label of 48v’s in Beijing, and released two records in 2016 and 2017.
In a slow life surrounded by pretty landscape scenery of Zhang Jiajie, seems Muggle is recording a quiet life by music, however, some inspiration makes such recording unique——Muggle is trying to find and accomplish different tunes from normal life pattern and stereotyped music style.
As Muggle’s latest record, Foldback——also its first full-length album—— is a conceptual ambient production. Combining the melody led by guitar and slow voice along with dialogue from Dream of the Red Chamber, a classic TV play premiered in 1987, Foldback gently reminds us how memory and beauty fades out as time goes by, all the youths and bustle will turn into dust in the end.
Out of respect for the artists(’cause both Muggle and 1724 tried but didn’t get authorization from the TV play’s publisher.It’s another story.So,anyway ), those who love Foldback will get it in a special way, for free, instead of buying.
Muggle will play instruments in a conventional way in its next album, another 1724 production, which will be released in 2017.（英文介绍感谢浩然同学翻译）
