It is very difficult to judge whether a musical work is plagiarized or not, whether it is abroad or at home.

In general, if there are eight bars in a piece of music that resemble another piece, or if a melody in the piece sounds like another piece, it will be judged as plagiarism.

However, because there are many music types that are too strongly labeled, it is easy to be misjudged by the public as plagiarism, so there are two modes for judging whether a musical work is plagiarized, one is the "ordinary listener judgment mode", and the other is "expert opinion plus ordinary audience judgment mode".

For example, reggae music, many times two songs that are similar to ordinary listeners are actually just dance music in the same genre, but in fact, both the song structure and the substance are completely different, and it is not plagiarism at all.

Liu Jingxin just felt that the original song of the Windbreaker Band had a very System of A Down feeling, and he couldn't find a matching work for the time being, so he used the word "over-borrowing".

However, the Windbreaker Band is currently only an underground band, and none of their works have been officially released to the public, so there is no need to be that strict, just listen to it.

System of A Down is a recognizable band with a psychotic vocals, and the effect of live performances is very explosive.

Da Mao and they stole this original song made by System of A Down, which pushed the atmosphere of the scene to a climax, especially the slow and tight song structure at that time, which almost paralyzed people's hearts.

The crowd shouted with their beers and middle fingers held high, and everyone was venting their pent-up negativity, which seemed crazy to others, but they all felt extremely happy.

Liu Jingxin noticed Peng Conan's nervousness and uneasiness, he raised his hand and patted Peng Conan's shoulder comfortingly, leaned into Peng Conan's ear and said: "You have to have confidence in your own works, have confidence in ourselves, so that you can have a good performance." ”

Peng Conan turned his head to look at Liu Jingxin gratefully, pursed his lips tightly and nodded vigorously, his hands clenched into fists, and the fighting spirit flowing in his blood burned again.

This time, the original song Peng Conan chose was called "New Day", which was the first song he wrote during his school days.

At that time, he had just been introduced to rock music, and he didn't know how to play bass, let alone form his own band.

I still remember that when he wrote this song, it was in the middle of summer one morning, he woke up from his sleep covered in sweat, went to the bathroom and rubbed his face hard, and then opened the refrigerator and took a bottle of iced Coke and poured it into his stomach.

At this moment, he vaguely heard a girl next door singing loudly.

Conan Peng opened the door curiously and walked to the balcony, and sure enough, he heard the girl next door singing Avril Lavigne's "Hot" loudly.

Avril is a more interesting superstar, in the early days she dressed in a very punk style, and her music was also inclined to pop-punk, but she said that her works were not punk, and she also said that she was a typical good girl, and she was indeed incompatible with punk singers.

Peng Conan had never heard much of this style of music before, but he felt a sense of excitement from the singing of the girl next door, and for the first time he felt the urge to write a song.

It was in this context that Peng Conan completed the first original song in his life.

Although there is no follow-up story between Peng Conan and the girl next door, it was after that early morning that he fell in love with punk music and began to look for punk bands everywhere to listen to their songs.

Green Day, Sum 41, Paramore......

At that time, the music resources on the Internet were not perfect enough, the tapes had not been eliminated, the CDs were still the mainstream, and Peng Conan would try his best to get his hands on any punk band album that could be found, and finally formed his own punk band a year ago, but unfortunately, like most domestic punk bands, they could not escape the fate of disbandment.

The dissolution of the band has already made Peng Conan very sad, but he is very unwilling to come to gamble with others, not to mention losing his bass, but also losing his dignity.

The windbreaker band on the stage quickly completed the performance of the original song, and the atmosphere of the scene was completely blown up, and almost all voices were shouting "windmill".

Da Mao turned his head to look at Liu Jingxin, raised the corners of his mouth and smiled, made a "please" gesture, then pulled out the string inserted on the guitar, led the team to leave from the other side, and gave up the stage.

Liu Jingxin said: "Brothers, go on!"

Jiang Li rolled up his sleeves and smiled: "My bass can't wait!"

Da Yang shook his wrist, pulled out the drum stick from his waist, and carefully checked the stick head to avoid the problem of the drum stick breaking.

Bao Yi moved the fingers of both hands like counting money, and said with a relaxed smile: "In a few minutes, this should be our home field." ”

Seeing that the four people around him were so scrappy, Peng Conan's nervousness was immediately swept away, and he only had excitement and excitement now.

Although the victory or defeat of this song can't help him regain the bass, it can help him regain his dignity.

He's going to win!

The host of the bar didn't know Liu Jingxin and them, so he just made the simplest introduction and then stepped down from the stage.

Peng Conan came to the center of the stage, looked at the smoky scene, and looked at the customers below who were talking and laughing, and few people were looking at him, he knew that no matter what he said now, no one would listen, so he simply briefly introduced the name of his original song, and didn't say anything else.

Because Liu Jingxin needed to adjust the timbre, Bao also needed to connect the keyboard to the mixer, and Da Yang needed to briefly try the drums, so the scene that was still burning like a fire just now suddenly cooled down.

Da Mao and the others on the side of the stage crossed their shoulders and looked at everyone on the stage, with a smile on the corner of their mouths, as if they were waiting to see Peng Conan's jokes.

From dress to temperament, Peng Conan is indeed incompatible with Liu Jingxin, and if his performance on stage is not enough to watch, he will definitely be laughed out.

After Liu Jingxin's audition was over, he gave Peng Conan a thumbs up and nodded, and Da Yang and others also gave Peng Conan a thumbs up one after another, indicating that their adjustment had been completed and could start at any time.

Peng Conan took a deep breath, looked back at the audience, and said into the microphone in a deep voice: "Are you ready?

The audience rang out in harmony, most of the people were drinking and chatting, and few people paid attention to Peng Conan and others on the stage.

Peng Conan made an "OK" gesture at Liu Jingxin, indicating that he could start.

Liu Jingxin nodded, grabbed the gravity chord on the neck with his left hand, and began to "hum" the rhythm full of action, and the other instruments followed after a bar.

Their gig, it's on!
