Chapter 485: Recording

Although Ye Zhao himself is not the lead singer of this project album, the workload is not easy at all, and it is even a little heavy.

In addition to the basic lyrics, he also served as the lead guitarist and participated in the harmony work of some songs, which can be called a screw that drills wherever needed.

That said, in terms of arrangement, he didn't take over a piece, but divided the work to Being's arranger Hiroto Furui, who co-arranged the music with him.

After the teacher Masao Akashi and being expired, he became a free body, and terminated his cooperation with being, and no longer provided arrangements for its singers, followed by the company's second arranger, Takeshi Hayama, who temporarily left being.

Starting from this, Daisuke Ikeda, who had been the younger brother of Masao Akashi in the past, became the chief arranger of being, and Hiroto Furui, who was unknown before, also came to the front of the stage because of the loss of talent in the company.

As an arranger, whether it is Daisuke Ikeda or Hiroto Furuii, there is no doubt about their ability, but the arranger who can best represent the style of being is really Masao Akashi, who has made great contributions to being.

With a large-scale withdrawal of composers and arrangers, being had to start the process of running in with the new team from top to bottom of the company.

The consequence of this is obvious, the singers who relied on this group of composers and arrangers in the past have lost some of their former style and character. This is actually a very strong blow to the singer.

But this is something that cannot be changed or changed. When I think about it this way, it's still a little sad.

Compared with Daisuke Ikeda, Ye Zhao prefers Hiroto Furuii, and the two have worked together before.

At the beginning, when releasing the collaboration single with Masaharu Fukuyama, Ye Zhao had already invited Hiroto Furui, who was not inconspicuous in the company, to participate in the arrangement of the music, and it was natural to find him again at this time.

After the song "Special Lovers" was scheduled to be released as a precursor single, it was naturally about this single that was prioritized for production.

In addition to "Special Lovers", which was included as the title song, another song called "Izukai" was also selected from the album as the C/song of this single.

The song is from a band from Okinawa called HY.

What is particularly worth mentioning about this band is that they had their own million-dollar album during the underground period, and they are the second underground band to do so after their Okinawan hometown mongol800.

In addition, they did not choose to make their mainstream debut after becoming popular, but continued to stay in the underground music industry, although they missed many opportunities, but they were more free to do their favorite music.

When selecting songs for the album, Ye Zhao made a sample of all the alternative songs and handed them over to the singers participating in the project, and then they auditioned and claimed them.

And the one who claimed this song "Out of the Meeting" was Ye Zhao named Yude Jingzi who hoped to cooperate.

As for the unclaimed song, there are also newcomers who have not debuted in this project, and they have no autonomy, so it is difficult to say "I don't want to sing this song" when they finally get such an opportunity.

On January 16, the recording of the first single officially began.

Ye Zhao, who picked up the entire project album on one shoulder, was not absent from the recording site this time.

It's also a bit interesting, because the whole project was basically discussed through the staff, and it wasn't until the first time he entered the shed that he met with Utoku Keiko for the first time.

When I actually met me, there was nothing particularly worth mentioning, it was nothing more than cooperation.

However, when I actually saw that Izumi Sakai, who had defeated Sachiko Kamaike at the time in the harmony audition of B.B. Queens, joined Mi-ke's sister, to be honest, Ye Zhao felt that if he lost to her, he would not be aggrieved at all.

…… It's also thanks to not being one of the three Mi-Ke that I have the current Zold and Sakai Spring.

In terms of artistic age, Yude Jingzi is a senior, plus Ye Zhao is completely unfamiliar with her, even if her personality is quite easy-going, the part that needs to be run in is still not missing at all, even if it is just music.

As a talented woman with all-inclusive lyrics and songs, Yude Jingzi has her own set of music concepts, and when recording, these things can not only be a boost and add luster to the song, but occasionally Ye Zhao and her will have disagreements.

In the first three days of the entire recording, he and Keiko Utoku were almost running-in.

In contrast, when it came to working with Sakai Springs, everything was much smoother.

When he was in the recording studio before, he used to visit the door and supervise the studio for her, and the experience accumulated in these interactions finally played their role in this cooperation.

The entertainment industry seems to be a night cat concentration camp, especially in the music industry, and those who like to work at night are even more grasped, not to mention that it is difficult to avoid staying up late in various industries to work overtime to catch up with the schedule.

Although there is no need to catch up with the recording this time, because Yude Keiko herself is also a senior night cat at work, in order to accommodate her work and work habits, Ye Zhao during this time had to temporarily live the life of Sakai Spring Water during the day and Yude Keiko at night.

Fortunately, the recordings of the two people are separated, and if the two of them fight together every day, no matter how good the guy is, he will have to boil it out.

In addition to coming to record this song "Special Lovers", Sakai Izumi also has her own recording work, from her debut to the present, her work schedule every year is very tight, even when she takes a long vacation to travel, she has to bring staff with her, and shoot the MV and record cover by the way abroad.

But this time, the record she wants to record, a little bit special, is a compilation.

It's not quite accurate to say that it's a collection, but it's more accurate to say that it's a "summer planning anthology", which includes both old songs from the past and two new songs, so it can't be called a selection if you strictly divide it.

But even so, when I received this proposal, Sakai Izumi was really troubled.

For a singer like her who has accumulated popularity and fame by relying on one high-quality single and album after another, and at the same time relying on these high-quality works to continue this popularity, she is actually very reluctant to release compilations.

As the name suggests, the compilation is a summary of the past, and when the compilation is released, there is a sense of drawing a line with your past music career. 2k reading web
