287, musical genius 1

4500 words big chapter, two-in-one monthly ticket, recommendation ticket!

Another: This chapter involves a lot of knowledge of music theory and recording process, in order to make this article look like that, a bit deep, not in vain, I have been blindly checking the information for most of the day, and I am tired. Let's give a dime chapter to comfort the blind :)

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

In the end, this breakfast, as Ma Liting wanted, ate the cross-bridge rice noodles she recommended.

At the time of checkout, two people got up to pay the bill almost at the same time, one was Wang Bo and the other was Fang You, but they were told by the waiter that the order had been bought. Wang Bo looked at Ma Liting in some surprise, and Ma Liting winked at him. At the same time, Fang Youyou sat down, his heart full of frustration. She didn't expect that Ma Liting would pay for it first during the toilet.

Pretend to be smart!

Breakfast is eaten, and then it's time to get down to business.

Fang You, who was depressed in his heart, came to his senses. On the way to the piano room, Fang You took out the score and began to explain her arrangement and soundtrack to Wang Bo. From the examination of "Encounter", to the determination of the style, to the configuration of musical instruments, from the main melody to the sub-melody, from the harmony layer to the rhythm layer, from the bass layer to the noise layer, the head is clear, the theoretical knowledge and professional terms come easily, and Wang Bo is one head and two big. He doesn't know anything except playing the guitar, knowing the staves, notation, lyrics, music, arrangement, and soundtracks. Fang You said a lot, combining theory with practice, but Wang Bo didn't seem to understand. It's like listening to a book from heaven.

Since you can't show your cleverness, you can only hide it. Regarding Fang You's explanation, Wang Bo didn't say yes. is not to say anything, in addition to saying that he believes in Fang You's professional level, he nods from time to time, indicating that he is listening.

His non-comprehensible style made Fang You's heart beat the drum, quite apprehensive, and gloomy. thought that Wang Bo didn't look down on his arrangement.

When he arrived at the piano room, Fang You said to Wang Bo: "Wang Zi'an, I only ordered two real musical instruments. Piano and guitar. Now, I will act as the orchestra conductor, let Xiaoqin and Yun Xiang play the piano and guitar, and complete the whole accompaniment once. Let you feel it. Do you think it's okay?"

"Hmm!" Wang Bo nodded, continuing to carry forward the style of cherishing words like gold just now, signaling that the three of them could start.

As soon as Hu Xiaoqin's piano sound and prelude came out, Wang Bo's ears immediately pricked up, and he immediately shouted hello in his heart! Before that, when he played and sang "Meet" by himself, the only accompaniment was the guitar. The music is very monotonous, and now the piano, the king of instruments, joins in, and the whole sense of musicality. It was enriched by more than half at once. Wang Bo closed his eyes slightly, hummed quietly in his mouth, and tossed his right foot to the beat of the music. The expression on his face, sometimes stretching, sometimes shaking his head, his sword eyebrows frowned, and Fang You, who was about to pay attention to Wang Bo with his afterglow while commanding, trembled and frightened, like walking on thin ice!

When the last light ending was played by Hu Xiaoqin, who played the piano, Wang Bo's singing in his heart also ended. He opened his eyes and found that everyone, including Ma Liting, who was doing nothing on the side, was looking at him with an expectant look, waiting for his comment. Especially Fang You, looking at his gaze, there was a little more apprehension and nervousness in anticipation, which reminded her of the feeling she felt when she handed in her homework to the vocal teacher for the first time, almost exactly the same.

Wang Bo does not understand pure music theory, and he also has limited knowledge of various musical terms, professional terms, musical instrument knowledge, and arrangement theory, and he knows only half of it. If Wang Bo wants to comment on Fang You's other music works, just like asking a chemistry student to comment on aesthetics, he is really not qualified.

However, Sun Yanzi's "Meet", Wang Bo in his previous life used the computer at home to play it on a loop countless times. He doesn't need to comment, he just needs to compare, compare Fang You's arrangement with the original work in his memory, find out the similarities and differences, give opinions, and then let Fang You improve accordingly. It's like a room where Wang Bo lives, someone looks at it and wants to restore an identical room, and let Wang Bo see it after it is restored. He is not allowed to make too much effort to see that the other party's recovery is not in place.

So, he doesn't need to comment at all, he just needs to "find fault".

Wang Bo asked Fang You to give him a pen and paper, "Boom", and began to point out the mismatch between the "Encounter" he had just heard and the original version of Sun Yanzi's "Encounter" in his memory: some of the submelodies were too weak to play a sufficient foil and foil, some were due to the lack of layering of the harmony, which made the music lose a little color and power, some were too slow and needed to be accelerated, and some were not enough bass and resonance to support the main body......

In short, Wang Bo is like playing a game of finding faults, and he is very happy to find it. He once again immersed himself in the ocean of music, contrasting, searching, writing it down, and then correcting it with notes, rhythm, speed and slowness, and other most basic and superficial musical symbols that he knew so far.

After doing this three or four times, Wang Bo handed over his revised version of the accompaniment score to Fang You, and asked the three of them to rehearse the revised score.

Wang Bo's revision, writing and painting, to be honest, Fang You, Hu Xiaoqin and He Yunxiang, the three composition students, are not very impressed. In the past, classical music was not allocated, and composers were usually arrangers, and they did all the work of composing and arranging. But nowadays pop music, composition, and arrangement are usually separated, and arrangement is becoming more and more important. A good arrangement can even overpower the brilliance of the composition, and it is completely a secondary creation of the original work, which is a subject that the composer needs to study all his life. How to match a good song with a good arrangement requires the support of music theory, instrument performance, acoustics and other aspects of knowledge, all factors are indispensable, and there is a high threshold. Wang Bo can write beautiful melodies, not necessarily able to write qualified arrangements, in a short period of time, I want to pick Fang You, a professional student who has certain attainments in arrangement, and not pick bones in eggs, for a while, where is it so easy to pick!

However, when the three of them only played a short section of the main song according to Wang Bo's modification, their faces immediately changed!

This. How is this possible? Almost every mistake that the prince picks out is aimed at and hits the nail on the head! There are once or twice places that seem discordant at first glance. After playing it twice, I immediately tasted the taste!

What a great musical intuition, such a strong arrangement!

Masters, real masters!

Genius, a musical genius who combines lyrics, composition and arrangement, is a rare musical genius in a century!

A few more looked at the one sitting on the side, his eyes closed. Wang Zi'an, who listened to several people playing with great enjoyment, changed his eyes from disdain to disdain. Five-body throw!

"Wang Zi'an, I, Hu Xiaoqin, have never served anyone in my life, not even the school's music teacher and music professor. I don't think so, either. Most of the vegetarian corpses are just in vain. Today, I am convinced of you. Hu Xiaoqin said in admiration.

"Wang Zi'an, your musical intuition is terrible! You are really a genius!" He Yunxiang, who was holding the guitar, also followed.

Fang You's expression was shocked and admired at first, but soon became depressed and annoyed, "Wang Zi'an, I've been busy for several days. It didn't turn out to be as good as you were a few minutes. You don't need me to give you a soundtrack at all, you will. Isn't it?" Fang You grimaced, looking like he had no confidence and had been severely hit.

And Ma Liting, looking at Wang Bo's eyes, there are countless little stars flying, and the admiration is beyond words.

The praise of several Sichuan beauties made Wang Bo proud and proud. This look, this expression, this praise, but he had never enjoyed it in his previous life. Especially when I think of these people, they are not laymen like Liao Xiaoqing and Tang Jian, who have no knowledge of music theory, but students who are upright and have received education in formal music institutions in China.

However, Wang Bo's own family knows his own affairs, how many catties and taels he has, a few Sichuan Yin students who are blinded by appearances are not clear, but he himself is a blind man who eats rice balls, he knows everything in his heart, and his family knows his own family affairs. After enjoying the praise of a few people, after a fluttering addiction, Wang Bo hurriedly waved his hand and said:

"Senior sisters, you guys are too awarded. I'm a wild man, pure grassroots, and I have no orthodox music training. I don't really understand a lot of the technical terms you say. It's a feeling. My gut told me how to change it, and I changed it. Whether the actual effect is good or not, you still have to try it to know. Sister Fang You, you don't have to be presumptuous, if you arrange the music, frankly speaking, I don't know much, I can only say that I know a little bit about it. If it weren't for your original, I wouldn't have been able to improve it a second time. For example, you're the chef and I'm a good dog. I can find fault and say that this is not delicious, that it is not delicious, that it is salty and that is light, but it is also exaggerated, and it is difficult for me to do it myself. ”

Wang Bo is telling the truth, but at this moment, in the ears of several girls, they think that he is dragging his beard across the river -- holding his beard (modest) and transitioning (degree)! This Wang Zi'an is talented but not arrogant, arrogant but not arrogant, and even less arrogant, and a rare good character! Several people, including Ma Liting, feel that in time, as long as this son is willing to eat the bowl of music, he will definitely shock the Chinese music scene in a few years!

There is no problem with the general arrangement, and the rest is to find a recording studio to produce it.

In the process of looking for a recording studio, Fang You gave Wang Bo a rough introduction to the production process of music works. After a song, the lyrics and songs come out, it is only the first step of the long march, and there are still many steps to go through in order to become a cassette or CD in a video store.

The first is the arrangement of the soundtrack, which is accompanied by different instruments, harmonies, chords, etc., depending on the style and type of the song. If there is an instrument, there must be a person who plays the instrument, that is, the band. The size of the band depends on the number of orchestrations. One or two less, seven or eight dozen or so more, and even a large symphony orchestra to accompany them, such as a certain "female general" who sang in Vienna. Everyone in the band needs the arranger to write a score so that they can play according to the score. Then there's the bandmaster. Who comes first and who comes last, how many beats, and the control of speed all need to be controlled by the commander.

After the lyrics, composing, arranging, and banding are available, then they can go into the studio to record.

A complete song, with vocals sung by singers, sounds made by bands playing instruments, some sounds of background and decoration sung by real people as needed, "ahh Each sound that is recorded is called a track.

After the recording of the sub-tracks, the next step is to synthesize, organically put together the sub-tracks, which is technically called mixing, and is done by the mixer in the studio. Of course, many times, especially for pop songs with strong rhythms, more or less special effects have to be added. The effects are simulated by MIDI synthesizers. Because many sounds, such as bass, stereo sound, and other special effects, cannot be made by human voices or musical instruments.

Once the mix is complete, it's time to master the tape. As soon as the master tape comes out, it can be handed over to the audio-visual company for distribution and sale, and it can be sold for money.

In the whole process of music production, because it involves a lot of manpower and material resources, such as arrangers, bands, conductors, recording engineers, and mixers, the price is bound to be expensive. Depending on the difficulty of the song and the fame and level of these people, the price ranges from thousands, tens of thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands. Like the asking price of Wang Tianhou's gold medal production team and these private small sheds around Chuanyin School, it is naturally a world away, one in the sky and one underground.

Fang You's introduction gave Wang Bo a basic idea of the entire production process of pop songs. In the process of listening, as soon as he heard that the production of an accompaniment is a band and a conductor, and a recording engineer and mixer, what tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands, his mood began to fluctuate, and he kept playing the drums, half of which was cold, thinking of his wallet, this trip to the market, I am afraid that it will be in vain.

But Fang You's next words made him feel at ease immediately. Fang You told him that the production cost of the music work was mostly in the arrangement, as well as the orchestra and conductor invited by the arrangement. His song, in addition to the lyrics and main theme, including the harmony, prelude, interlude and epilogue were all written by him, in fact, for her arrangement to reduce more than half of the work, it can also be said that Wang Bo himself has done more than half of the work that originally needed to be arranged, he himself is an arranger. And the orchestra and conductor, because the artistic conception of this song is mainly reflected in the lyrics and melody, can be accompanied by piano and guitar, she, Hu Xiaoqin, and He Yunxiang can serve as the three, and there is no need to invite others. In this way, you can save a lot of money. They need help from outsiders, but they are sound engineers and mixers. As long as it is a recording studio, there are sound engineers and mixers, and the difference is only in the price and level. Some recording studios, arrangers, sound engineers, mixers and even one person. According to Fang You's estimate, his song can be made for about three or four hundred yuan. If you meet someone who is easy to talk to, maybe you only need to pay for the use of a shed. It depends on how they negotiate with those bosses at that time.

There are many private recording studios near the Conservatory, and the four girls took Wang Bo to see a few, and finally chose a recording studio opened by the former Sichuan Yin teacher under Fang You's suggestion, which has a good reputation among Sichuan Yin students and a good price.

Fang You explained his intention to the other party, introduced his own requirements, and after bargaining between the two parties, the four girls begged each other softly, especially Ma Liting's lethal burst of snort, and the boss who didn't talk much was defeated and retreated, and finally closed the deal at the "cost price" of 280 yuan. This cost includes making a blank accompaniment, and based on this accompaniment, Wang Bo, Fang You, and Ma Liting each recorded a song and engraved a commemorative plate.
