Character evaluation
Liu Yida's experimental music is unique in Hong Kong. He excels in the skillful use of Chinese musical instruments and mainstream melody, as well as the coordination with electroacoustics. His achievements in film music have won him a good reputation, but what is really admirable is the handling ability of the aphasic (city pictorial review).
Liu Yida is a man with two sides: a wise man who immerses himself in the world of fear and fantasy, a cynic who looks at the world coldly, a cynic who looks like a ghost horse in the Hong Kong Style comedy, and a man who is alert to the world and entertains all living beings. Parasitic in Hong Kong, a depraved and infatuated monster City, Liu Yida is not "numb", but is calm and optimistic about the lifeline of the city (Southern Metropolis Daily).
