Chapter 113: Ultraman's Song (For the Alliance Leader Immortal Star Universe)

Ultraman's soundtrack is a must.

Maybe Tsuburaya has one or another problem, but in his attitude towards the work, he is absolutely not perfunctory to the audience.

Even the new generation that has been vilified by others is not without merit.

When it comes to Tsuburaya's soundtrack, five iconic composers have to be mentioned.

The five are Toru Fuyuki, Tatsumi Yano, Toshihiko Sahashi, Kenji Kawai and Takao Konishi.

There are many composers who have worked with Tsuburaya, but these five are the most representative.

Toru Fuyuki is the symbol of Showa O, known as the "father of Ultraman music" in Neon, and was responsible for the production of many Showa "Ultraman" works and some of Gauss's soundtracks.

Ritsumi Yano is probably the most well-known of the four in China, responsible for a series of music productions such as Dyna Tiga, and he composed Tiga's TV theme song "Take Me Higher".

Toshihiko Sahashi represents the post-Heisei era, and has produced not only the music of Parvat, Gaia, Mebius, and Super Eight Theater, but also the music of many Kamen Riders, including Kugai, and many knight music.

Takao Konishi was the "royal" composer of the late Tsuburaya period, and he single-handedly produced the music of the new generation, from Ultraman Galaxy to Ultraman Obu.

As for Kenji Kawai, this business is too wide, and although he has also done tokusatsu music, the number is not as large as the first four. His main works include Nexus, G&D, and Cello's theatrical music.

He also participates in the music of Kamen Rider Build.

The composition level of these five people, Meng Lang is not good to evaluate as a music idiot, anyway, he thinks Ultraman's music is very good.

But these five people are not the first generation of music composition, the first generation of music composition is in charge of Miauchi Kuniro.

This is the god of tokusatsu music that has been forgotten by many Ao fans!

"Godzilla", "Ultra Q", "Ultraman (the first generation)", and "Ultraman Jonias" all have his participation in the production.

Among Kuniro Miyauchi's songs, the most well-known is the theme song "Ultraman Song" at the beginning of the original Ultraman.

It's no exaggeration......

This song has influenced a generation!

Although the song is classic, it is definitely not possible to copy it as it is.

For the first generation of music production, Meng Lang gave the music team that had previously produced theme songs for many anime works.

The strength of this team is very strong!

But strong strength does not mean that you can make music that satisfies Party A, for example, now, Meng Lang is very dissatisfied with the theme song they made, so he personally hummed a piece of "Ultraman Song"!

After Meng Lang hummed the basic tune, Li Tianming, the musician in charge of composing, picked up the notes and wrote them down, and then played them on the piano.

After playing, he seemed to be inspired, and he ignored Meng Lang on the side, and entered the working state as if no one was around.

Meng Lang didn't urge him, and after making sure that he would not be able to get the finished product for a while, he turned around and left silently.

Three days later, Li Tianming submitted a sample of the lyrics and music to him.

Meng Lang listened to it and found that this song was very different from the version he hummed, like a magic version of the rearrangement of "Ultraman Song".

The style of music is more burning and more enthusiastic, if the version he hummed was like a girl's murmur, then in this version it became a macho roar!

The words are also filled in:

In this starry universe

What kind of miracle exists?

UItraman!

Discover the wonders of this starry sky

The Land of Light, the hero of the universe

Strengthen the belief in the protection of the heart

Here we are!

Fight, even if you are scarred!

(For the Blue Planet)

Guard, the peace of the universe!

(Staggered hands into a cross)

Burn life, just for this moment

In this sunset

Oh~UItraman!

The Hero of Light is coming~!!

The effect of the sample was simply explosive, and Meng Lang paid the final payment with satisfaction after listening to it, and asked Wang Kui to find a high-quality singer to sing.

Although the title of the song is still called Ultraman Song, this version of Ultraman Song has completely changed its appearance.

It discarded the original full of "Showa" macho atmosphere and converted it into a tune that is more in line with the positioning of today's times, which sounds pretty good.

Of course, the original "Ultraman Song" can't be wasted, and it can be made into a neon version of the theme song!

If the neon kids think this song is old-fashioned, then it's not in the way, just throw the pot at TBS.

Let's just say that the neon version of "Ultraman Song" was produced by TBS, and it has nothing to do with PD Company.

Well arranged!

In addition to the theme song, there is also music that needs to be produced such as ending songs and interludes.

However, this part of the requirements is much lower, at least not as time-consuming and laborious as the theme song.

The music of the first generation was in intense production, and the holster and model group were not idle.

Monster holsters are a big job!

There are currently five monster holsters that have appeared, namely the cosmic monster Bermuda, the cosmic ninja Baltan, the transparent monster Nelonga, the underwater ape Ragon, and the strange plant Green Mons.

There are more than 30 monster holsters that have not yet appeared!

That's a scary number!

Even if the holster model team maintains a high load of 996, the production progress of the holster still cannot keep up with the filming progress of the crew.

As a last resort, after filming the first five episodes, the crew could only temporarily suspend work and wait for the holster production team to provide new holsters.

The holster being made is the sea beast Gesla's holster, which is an underwater monster that looks like a "fat-headed fish", and is based on Bida in episode 26 of "Ultra Q".

Speaking of which, most of the original monster archetypes came from "Ultra Q".

Herein lies the problem!

When Tsuburaya was filming the first generation, he changed the "Ultra Q" holster in the warehouse to use it. As for Meng Lang, he didn't shoot Ultra Q, there was no ready-made holster available, and every monster had to make a new holster, and after designing, modifying, and making a set of processes, he couldn't keep up with the filming schedule at all.

"Mr. Meng, why don't we change the shape of the leather case that appeared in front of us to make do with it?"

Wang Kui saw that this was really too much delay, so he couldn't help but suggest out loud.

Meng Lang was silent.

Changing the holster is a vice, he Meng Zai is not short of money will do this kind of thing?

"Take the Bermuda holster and change it to make a brainwave monster Yangge!"

I'm sorry Tsuburaya-san, it's me Meng Tsai who blames you!

It feels so good to change the holster!

It's no wonder that Tsuburaya always likes to let classic monsters come out to play soy sauce, it turns out that changing the leather case will really feel happy!

Even if the first generation has not finished filming, Meng Lang has already decided that he will learn from Tsuburaya-san in the future.

Monsters can't have relatives?!

The Ultra Brothers can have it, so why can't there be a Monster Brothers?

Since it's a monster brother, it almost makes sense that it looks like it.

After deciding on the recycling plan for the monster holster, Meng Lang seemed to think of something again, and asked the designer: "What about Zoffie's holster?"

"Zofi holsters haven't started yet, our job is mainly to design and make monster holsters......"
