Chapter 158: Watch Xiaobai write you a song in five minutes

"Writing songs?" Gu Xiaobai pinched his chin.

Gu Xiaobai, who has completed all the exams this semester, is about to enter the summer semester next.

In the summer semester, there are four courses: Mathematica and its Applications, Metalworking Practice, Electronic Technology Practice, and Foreign Language Practice.

They are all hands-on courses, which are completely different from the previous courses.

Gu Xiaobai can also get out of the classroom and study room, move his body, try to socialize, and activate the rest of his brain.

Of course, the practical courses of Dongyuan University are not for fun, not to mention the software of mathematica, which is a big killer in the process of scientific research, and must be mastered proficiently, just a metalworking internship, starting from basic casting, fitter, turning, milling, cutting, grinding, to various CNC machine tools, laser engraving, 3D printing, industrial robots, etc., all must be studied and studied.

Basically, from making hammers to rockets, they all went through a process, although it was just a superficial experience, but it was also a long experience. Not to mention, in the end, it is necessary to examine their hands-on ability, and they have to do something.

These four courses lasted for a total of five weeks, and the coursework was not easy, but for the students of the physics department, it was a new environment and rhythm.

In other words, Gu Xiaobai should also have a little more time to spend on music.

After such a long time, it should be enough to write a song......

The system thought to itself.

"Write a song?what?Xiaobai, do you want to write a song?" Later, when Wang Haixia heard it, his head leaned over, "Write me, write me!"

Okay, Gu Xiaobai didn't care, he glanced at Wang Haixia and wrote it on the paper.

"I'm a hero in my life

Walk the four seas

Proud prince

White Horse Walks the World"

"Okay, okay, write me a story about a young lady falling in love with me!"

Gu Xiaobai continued to write.

"Over 10,000 fireworks

Obsessive Eye

Divorce from love and hate

The leaves are not plucked"

Wang Haixia's face darkened: "Are you cursing me for being a single dog for 10,000 years?"

Turned around and walked away with a huff.

Next to him, Zhou Xianting came over and said, "Then it's better to write me." ”

"I'm strolling

Who's in charge

Sword Circumference

A thousand miles away"

"Is the story of the young lady okay?" Zhou Xianting clasped his hands together.

Gu Xiaobai wrote again:

"If the world is the same

Chill Blade Harvest

How have you been

Try my immeasurable work"

Zhou Xianting's face darkened: "It's excessive!, and I think your lyrics are dirty!he...... tui~”

Gu Xiaobai was at a loss, where is it dirty?

Zhao Mo came over, Zhou Xianting confessed to him, we are all so miserable, why do you think you have a big face and can hug the little sister?

Zhao Mo looked at Gu Xiaobai with innocent little eyes that he had just woken up and had in his eyes.

Gu Xiaobai wrote again.

"You want to be silent

Asked between the eyebrows

Return to Zhao

The concubine's heart is empty. ”

"Huh?" Zhou Xianting looked at it unhappily, this was stealing the young lady's heart?

"It's too much!" glared at Zhao Mo angrily.

Zhao Mo smiled and silently wiped the droppings from the corners of his eyes.

Gu Xiaobai continued to write:

"Look at the prosperity of that year

Like rain

Look at the white horse

Idle too much love cliff. ”

Is this really a beauty?

Moreover, the rhyme foot returns to the first sentence, indicating the end of this paragraph.

It's time for the chorus.

"Xinfeng wine bucket ten thousand

Tie the horse high-rise weeping willow edge

Offset white feathers sit in a golden saddle

Watch his kings and ministers feast at the end

The meeting spirit is the king's drink

How many years has the Xianyang Ranger ......"

"Huh...... Young man, okay?" Zhou Xianting glared.

It's just a juvenile line that has been disrupted.

Not only is the order of the poems out of order, but even the order in the verses is reversed, which enhances the sense of language and rhyme.

"Then it's called "Youth Xing". After Gu Xiaobai finished writing, he wrote the topic to the top.

It doesn't matter.

"Yo yo yo, it's amazing, Xiaobai actually wrote an ancient style song......"

"When did Xiaobai stop being old-fashioned?"

Where do you put "Yanyan"! Is the ancient style of the absolute ancient style good!

I don't know when, the three of them came over, Gu Xiaobai looked at them, aren't you all angry because you don't have a young lady?

The system is speechless, why did you write me a lyric in less than five minutes?

You...... You, you're too much, you!

Although there is suspicion of piling up, it ......

Lyrics...... It's barely okay. (Note 1)

The system held back tears.

Now it's time to compose.

Gu Xiaobai said: "It's better to just go straight to the canon chord......"

Gu Xiaobai has no dream of writing songs, he just wants to complete the task and get the reward.

The so-called chord, simply put, is to press several notes at the same time, three notes at the same time are called three chords, four notes are called seven chords (because there is an extra seventh interval), in addition to nine chords and so on......

And writing songs with chords is an important way of assembly line production in the modern music world.

Some just set chord directions, some use chord directions to match different melodies, and of course, the easiest way is to write songs directly with chords.

Anyone who has watched music variety shows in the past two years probably knows a magic number, 4536251, in fact, 4536251 can only occupy 20% of the songwriting routines in the Chinese music scene, and there is another chord progression, which is more used than 4536251, about 30%, that is, the canon chord progression.

The canon chord progression is a chord from "Canon", which is particularly catchy and catchy, very in line with human aesthetics, and many people have cycled the single song.

As a result, this set of chord directions has been widely used in pop music.

The canon chords are C, G, Am, Em, F, C, F, G (with m is a minor third chord, and the difference between a major third and a minor third chord is that the internal intervals are different, and the major third chord is brighter in color and the minor third chord is more gloomy), which is 15634145, and there is also an early termination variant C, G, AM, Em, F, G, C, which is 1563461.

The C chord is the three keys of CEG, and so on, all of which are composed of a white key (three tones) above the root note (the lowest tone) and a white key (three tones) pressed to press a white key, and then a white key separated by a white key (five tones).

Select a few notes (called chord tones) from the chords and place them on the melody line, arrange them horizontally, and then add a few passing notes (two notes in between, such as 3 and 1 plus 2 in the middle, becoming 3, 2, 1, smooth melody line), auxiliary notes (adding other notes of the same pitch in the middle, such as 1, 1 and adding a 2 in the middle, becoming 1, 2, 1), and other chord notes (notes outside the chord) to increase the conflict and richness of the melody.

Just like doing a math problem, Gu Xiaobai brushed and brushed all the way down, and quickly got the melody line of the main song done.

If you want to refrain from the chorus, you don't need to do it at all, change the 4536251, be more lyrical and more beautiful, continue to level the chords, do the same as math problems, choose a few and lose a few, add a few and subtract a few, look at the coordinates of the lyrics and melody lines to adjust the rhythm, add a few chords to the places that need to conflict, and raise the tension, saying that five minutes is a bit exaggerated, and after more than ten minutes, a song appeared on two blank sheets of paper in front of Gu Xiaobai.

"Youth Xing", Canon carried out + 4536251, Gu Xiaobai, who had no dreams, just wrote a song without dreams.

Gu Xiaobai hummed twice, followed the melody line, modified a few things that he felt awkward, and clapped his hands:

"Okay, the next thing is to record it. ”

System: "......"

Gu Xiaobai, you give me a little bit, please take music seriously, don't be so mixed!

It's no wonder that a song you wrote in five minutes can be praised by netizens!

A musician without a dream is not a musician!

(Note 1: The lyrics were written by Uncle Ha in five minutes, and the rhetorical intention was piled up + adapted from "Youth Xing", so don't be too demanding to write it.)

Note 2: Interested iPhone users, you can open GarageBand, use the piano roll window to enter notes, directly search out the notes of the canon chords, fill in the notes casually, write a paragraph by yourself, pay attention to the time value of each note is not consistent, add a little after the sound or something, and then adjust it yourself to listen again, you will find it very good...... If you have time, in the lower octave, match the chords according to the position of the chord transition (you can increase the richness by displacing the front and back), and you will find that you have written a very nice melody...... As for android users, I don't know if there is any related software, haven't used it......

Note 3: There are many songs written in this way, such as Jinsha's "The Myth of the Stars and the Moon", which was written entirely with canon chords (Jinsha lyrics and songs), and it was popular for a while about 10 years ago...... It is said that the record company refused to include this song in her album at first, probably because she thought it was too streamlined, but she didn't expect it...... It's on fire...... )
