Chapter 484: "Flying Solo"

It stands to reason that since you want to release a regular album, the process can't be like when the group is okay, simply make a mini-album and throw it out directly after the release date is determined.

The best way to do this is to extract the title track from the album and release it as a single first.

This will not only build momentum for the album, but also give the listeners a general idea of the style of the album, and at the same time, make the title song more durable and more enjoyable into a single, and make it easier for the listener to listen to it repeatedly.

Of course, when the disc report is announced, the record company will also state that "this single is part of the planned album made by Ye Zhao and the female singers in the company" to create a sense of expectation for the public.

Even if you don't do that, the mainstream approach will not have any serious consequences, but if you follow the rules, things will be easier and smoother.

As the two most popular women in the company now, the commercial value of Sakai Spring Water and Daikoku Moji is of course the highest, and when releasing the first single, in order to allow the company to make more money on it, it must be the priority to target these two people.

However, during the discussion, Sakai Spring Water was immediately determined by Nagato Daiyuki, and Daikoku Moji was excluded, not because he didn't think it was appropriate to give her small shoes to wear here.

During the preparation period, Ye Zhao also mentioned one more thing to Nagato Daiyuki: "This time, let Miss Sakai think about it, how about trying to 'fly solo'?"

"Solo?"

"That's right," Ye Zhao said, "this project album is not in the name of ZARD, but in the name of Miss Sakai Izumii herself." At the same time, this pilot single is also Miss Sakai's personal single. ”

Zard is a one-man band from Sakai Izumizu, although when she first participated in MS, she was on stage with the musicians. However, these musicians were actually improvised, and even in the first two years of the band's formation, there were changes in personnel.

It's just that the center of this band is Sakai Izumi, and unlike the previous girl pop bands, these musicians are not involved in the creation, but simply as wallflowers and musicians, so even if the members quietly change, as long as the person standing at the front does not change, no one will notice.

The only time that can prove that the band is a whole.,Probably the arrangement of the song "Love は暗の中で" is signed in the name of the whole zard.。

After Zold stopped being on TV publicly, the musicians left the team one after another, and several even quit the company to find another way.

In this case, it sounds a bit redundant to let only one person Zard have to "fly solo" again.

"Actually, I was inspired by Inaba-san's solo flight. Ye Zhao explained to Nagato Daiyuki.

B'Z's lead singer Hiroshi Inaba announced his solo flight this year and is ready to perform music activities in his own name.

When they were in the band, Takahiro Matsumoto and Hiroshi Inaba had a clear division of labor, which is also the secret that can make the band or group sustainable, that is, the members need to converge their own light.

But when you break away from the band and move as a solo, these constraints can be let go.

Hiroshi Inaba can show the light that has been restrained in the band and do more things he wants, for example, he is only responsible for lyrics in the band, and when he is engaged in personal activities, he can freely sing the songs he composed.

Of course, as a one-man band, Zard can't be so unrestrained even if Sakai Izumi jumps out of the band, after all, her name is equal to the band.

If you want to talk about it, this is also a whim that belongs to Ye Zhao.

Deliberately changing the vest and emphasizing that he participated in this project album in his personal name not only strengthened the meaning of "trying", but also distinguished himself from Zard's style, which can be regarded as a sale.

The public will wonder why they should deliberately participate in the album project in their own name, and in this way, it will whet the public's appetite and increase their sense of anticipation.

"It's an interesting idea, so I'll mention it to Ms. Sakai and hear her opinion. Nagato Daiyuki thought about it for a moment and agreed.

Naturally, he also thought through these joints, and even thought a little more than Ye Zhao in other places, for example, emphasizing his personal name can be regarded as strengthening the impression that "Zold is a "band".

However, if Ye Zhao knew what he was thinking, he would probably laugh.

"In that case, how about Manish Takahashi simply participate in this project album in his own name?" After saying that, Zard, Nagato Daiyuki remembered another band that he was also going to join.

Compared to Zard, to Manish, his taste of one-word words came up again, not "listen to Manish's opinion", but "just let them do it".

"About that...... Let's pass it on to them through the staff and hear their opinions. Ye Zhao replied tactfully.

Although I feel that the demolition of Manish is a bit unkind, after all, the situation is not the same as Zard, and these two people can be regarded as having their own duties in the band, but Ye Zhao has no intention of stopping Nagato Daiyuki's approach.

Even in his heart, there is still a little bit of wanting to see what kind of performance Mirei Takahashi in the state of "solo flight" is.

……

When the discussion of the album is going well, and when we work together to do something, even if we can't get together to discuss it, the efficiency will not be low, and it may even be higher.

As soon as 1997, being began its turmoil.

Uesugi and Shibasaki Hiroshi finally stayed up until the expiration of their contracts and left the company in January, which opened the beginning of this uneasy year and officially announced the decline of the being dynasty that once called for wind and rain in the music world.

Ye Zhao, who joined being for the third year, can be regarded as the nearest place to witness the rise and fall of this dynasty.

At a time when people are panicking, from veterans who have won the world to newcomers who have cultivated one-handedly, they are thinking about leaving, and someone is working together with the singers in the company to make a project album.

This kind of thing sounds like the so-called "company love", but it's a pity that this organizer is also a master who has made up his mind, and he has no idea of advancing and retreating with the company at all.

However, while most of the singers in the company wanted to change jobs, the other bad thing was that the founder of the company was not thinking about how to revive the family business, but was actively operating in Kansai, preparing to abandon Kanto and move his base camp to Kansai.

The morale from top to bottom is sluggish, and when the two are added together, it can be regarded as terrible. 2k reading web
