Chapter 374: Introduction

There is no new folk song in the world after the crossing, which is also something that Chen Yongren learned later.

The folk songs of this world are very pure, and the mainstream is to use Muji to sing in a low voice, and basically no other musical instruments will be added.

Among folk singers, they feel that adding instruments to a folk song would ruin the beauty of the ballad, let alone replacing the main instrument with an electric guitar, which would be almost sacrilege. Only a rock singer would do that, and a real folk singer would never have that idea.

In their eyes, folk songs are folk songs, using lyrics and singing to move people, only acoustic guitars can fully cooperate with folk performances, and other instruments will steal the limelight from the lyrics themselves. For the sake of the ballad, they won't change much.

The new world is a world of great openness, and many things are pursuing novelty and change.

People are spoofing classics, re-giving new meanings to literary works, and changing the style of music.

From the original folk music, bel canto, to the later rock, pop, rap, etc., the musical elements have been increasing. Even the so-called Divine Comedy is later, and it is music that is in line with people's aesthetic changes.

In fact, the same is true of folk songs, when did the new Chinese folk songs appear? about 2000, what were the important things in the music scene at that time?

After ten years of prosperity, folk music fell to the bottom, many musicians gave up folk songs and threw themselves into the embrace of pop music or comeback rock music, plus the new generation of folk songs have also been influenced by rock and roll, and with the efforts of Pu Shu and Xu Wei, a new genre of folk songs has been created, which is new folk songs.

They add elements of pop and rock music to campus ballads, they don't want to be like folk songs, they lie in plain sadness, they will remind you of a lot of bits and pieces close to life, think of those pure and beautiful years, from the bottom of your heart, you can't help but want to burst into tears.

It gives the songs so much that they don't have the glamour of pop music or the rustic nature of the ballads themselves, making a new fusion.

There are no singers like Pu Shu and Xu Wei in the new world, so new folk songs have not appeared for the time being.

Unlike ballads, rock 'n' roll in the New World has changed dramatically.

Rock 'n' roll has more categories than earth rock, and in addition to the crazy rock music of hard rock, heavy metal or death rock, there is also another type of soft rock.

They don't have violent tunes, they don't have harsh tones that make people frown, only a touch of humanity and low singing.

From this point of view, soft rock is similar to the new folk of the earth. However, the reason why soft rock is called rock is that it still has the shell of rock and roll, and the overall frame is still from rock and roll, which is completely different from folk songs.

The new folk song is different, it is based on the folk song to make changes, add other musical elements appropriately, and the whole framework is still a folk song, which is the biggest difference between the two.

Is a song neo-folk or soft rock? You can tell if you look at the overall framework.

When he first chose "Ordinary Road", Chen Yongren hesitated. There has been no new ballad in this world itself, and his choice of this song is bound to cause some controversy.

In fact, controversy is not too much of a problem, and any music that wants to develop must be carried out in controversy. It's almost impossible to get something new if you want to stay the same.

However, does he want those controversies?

After the crossing, he is satisfied with his current life, and he is not one of those traversers, either pretending to be slapped in the face, or on the way to pretending to be slapped in the face.

If he could, he would prefer to spend this life in an ordinary way. Sing when you have free time, and do what you love to do the rest of the time.

But what does he love the most? Only singing.

If you want to sing, then there is bound to be a result. The few differences between the two worlds will make some songs controversial.

For the sake of those controversies, did he put classic songs on the shelf and never sang them for the rest of his life?

No, he wasn't willing to do that. If so, what right does he have to emphasize that he likes music, where he is nothing more than a coward.

Now that he has a choice, why should he argue in the world of accidents?

What if there is an argument, even if he is slandered? He still sticks to the original essence, the heart that loves music.

So, he finally chose "Ordinary Road".

"Go forward, just go like this,

Even if you are taken away from something,

Walk forward and just go like this,

Even if you're going to miss something,

Go forward, just like that......"

Is this a cry? No, of course more than that, it's a proclamation. Declaring that he comes from the ordinary, with his own extraordinary, is also announcing the emergence of a new genre.

Whether you support it or not, whether you approve of it or not, it emerges and is firmly integrated into the whole music. It may not be the brightest light in music, but it is also a star that cannot be ignored.

Don't look at the rap that is only a dozen seconds long, at this moment, the movement caused in the outside world is definitely stronger than ordinary people imagine.

Fortunately, the rap was relatively simple, and after more than ten seconds, the electric guitar stopped, and the acoustic guitar began to play, and the music style became a familiar ballad again.

"I have crossed mountains and seas,

also through the sea of people,

I used to have it all,

In the blink of an eye, they are scattered like smoke,

I was disappointed, disappointed, lost all direction,

Until you see the ordinary, the only answer......"

He also doesn't want to be the protagonist of those who mock everything, Chen Yongren prefers to make changes in silence.

The same is true for new folk songs, throwing out new folk songs directly will cause a violent counterattack from folk singers.

Now throwing out an introduction, only partially changed, 99% of the whole song is also a ballad. As for how much waves that one percent will cause and whether it will set off changes in the folk music industry, Chen Yongren will wait and see.

Next, the song enters into a smooth chant. With the same familiar tone and the same soft singing, in the last paragraph, Chen Yongren vividly shows the control of folk music over the song.

He hopes to prove that he still loves folk songs and understands them more deeply than you.

Unless you are more accomplished in folk songs than me, don't talk casually. In just half a minute, he eliminated more than 90 percent of the controversy.

"The wind blows, the road is still far away, where is your story told......"

No matter how good the music is, there will always be an end. No matter how good the story is, there will always be an end to the day, and five minutes later, Chen Yongren spat out the last character. At the same time, the notes slowly fade away.

"Thank you!"

Thanking the audience, Chen Yongren bowed to the audience and the band, and then walked off the stage amid the audience's enthusiastic shouts and applause.
