Chapter 57, three raps in different styles!
Li Ronghao is busy in the office.
Seeing Galen coming in, he immediately stopped what he was doing, stood up and smiled, "Here, have you checked your results on the Internet?"
Galen raised the report in his hand, "The front desk has given it to me!"
"Sent it?" Li Ronghao immediately reached out to pick it up, "Show me!"
After taking the report and studying it carefully for a long time, Li Ronghao smiled, "Okay! Good! Great! This achievement, although it can't be said to be against the sky, is already the best among newcomers in the music world!"
"Almost!" Galen smiled, "By the way, Mr. Li, I'm here to deliver a sample, you listen!"
"Oh, have you written a new song?"
Li Ronghao was even more excited, "Hurry up and listen to it!"
Galen took out the USB drive, handed it to Li Ronghao and plugged it into the computer, and after a while, there was a sound of an electric guitar strumming the strings.
"Huh, is it rock?" Li Ronghao said immediately when he heard it.
Galen smiled at the corners of his mouth, but didn't speak.
After a fierce drum beat, Galen's voice was heard:
"The smell of smoke in the rock burning shop is permeated, next door is the Guoshu Museum, the mother in the store, there are three sections of judo! The boss who teaches fist and foot martial arts, practices iron sand palms and plays the Yang family gun, and is the best at hard foundation kung fu, and will also have a golden bell cover iron cloth shirt......"
As the song progressed, Li Ronghao's eyes widened more and more, his mouth opened slightly, and he listened with bated breath, when he first heard this song, he felt very chaotic, he couldn't understand what he was singing at all, and the accompaniment was also very bad.
It's just a casual song!
But I don't know why, although this song is chaotic, it is not harsh, especially with the sound of "Hmph! use the nunchuck! Hmph, hey!", Li Ronghao finally couldn't help but turn on the music, and the whole person was engrossed.
Especially the piano solo that suddenly joined in the middle section, Li Ronghao directly gave a thumbs up and said from the heart, "Cow!"
After the song was played, Li Ronghao breathed a long sigh of relief and asked, "What's the name of this song?"
"Nunchucks!"
"Did you bring the lyrics?"
"Give!"
Galen handed over the lyrics, and Li Ronghao received them, "I have to listen to it again, I didn't hear what lyrics you sang just now!"
He was about to replay it when suddenly another sound came from the computer stereo.
This time it's a distorted piece of music, with drums, guitars, and other instruments.
Immediately afterwards, the voice became clear, Li Ronghao was stunned, he thought that Galen only brought a small sample of a song, but he didn't expect that there was another one, the reason for this judgment is entirely because the style of this second song is not as intense as the song "Nunchucks" just now, and immediately asked, "This...... Another song?"
Galen smiled and nodded, "The lyrics are on the second page!"
Li Ronghao hurriedly turned to the second page, and when he saw the dense pile of lyrics, he was dumbfounded, there are more lyrics on this page than "Nunchucks" just now, is it rap again?
But from the perspective of the arrangement, this song should be a slow song, and the drum beat is also a slow four rhythms, is it a pop rap similar to "The Bund 18"?
No matter what kind of speculation, you can't draw a conclusion until you listen to the song.
Li Ronghao then gave up speculation and chose to be a loyal listener and listen to how Galen's song is sung.
"The King of Ancient Babylon issued the Code of Hammurabi!"
"The basalt carved in black has been more than 3,700 years ago!"
"You stare at the words of the inscription in front of the shop window!"
"I'm here to admire your beloved face!"
……
The speed of speech is too fast, and although the overall feeling of the music is slow, it is not easy to listen carefully to every word.
Li Ronghao read the lyrics word by word, and he could barely know what he was singing.
But when I looked at the lyrics, I was shocked.
The word is written...... It's too epic, isn't it?
In particular, what are the "ancient Babylon", "Hammurabi's Code", "Mesopotamia"......
This not only tests the amount of knowledge, vocabulary, and speaking level, but also tests people's IQ.
However, on the whole, Li Ronghao likes the melody of this song very much, and even surpasses the incredible "Nunchucks" that he liked a moment ago.
And the feeling of this song is different from the rap and pop music he knows.
It can even be said that this is a bold precursor of Chinese RB fusion rap style.
He seems to have seen that the release of this song is definitely much more shocking than the original "Bund 18".
Because "Bund 18" is after all adding rap elements to pop music.
And this song completely integrates the rap difficulty and speed of rap into the melody of pop songs, making rap catchy and full of tune.
Outside the door.
Liu Xiayu came out of the errand, and it was time for her to get off work.
Although she is only a shareholder and does not hold any position, the company does not have the position of president now, and only Vice President Li Ronghao is on top of it, so she has to personally inquire about many big and small things.
When she passed by Li Ronghao's office, she suddenly heard a burst of music coming from inside, and couldn't help but be stunned...... How is it so wonderful?
The soundproofing of all offices has been specially reinforced, so that if you are not a person with a particularly good sense of musicality and a special sensitivity to sound, you will not even be able to hear the music inside.
At that moment, Liu Xiayu pushed the door and walked in, and saw that Galen and Li Ronghao were looking back at her, and made a shushing gesture at the moment, signaling the two who were about to stand up not to make a move.
"The love I gave you was written before the A.D., buried deep in the plains of Mesopotamia!"
"Unearthed dozens of centuries later, the handwriting on the clay tablets is still clearly visible!"
"The love I gave you was written before the A.D., buried deep in the plains of Mesopotamia!"
"Engraved forever in cuneiform, the oath that has been weathered for thousands of years, everything repeats itself......"
At the end of the song, Liu Xia asked directly at Galen, "You wrote it!"
"Hmm!" Galen nodded.
"What's it called?"
"Love Before the Century!"
"It's different enough! Put it again!" Liu Xia said.
Li Ronghao said, "Well, there is another song in front, do you want to listen to it together?"
"Good!" Liu Xia said.
After receiving the instruction, Li Ronghao was about to release it again, when he suddenly wondered, "Well, why is there another song?"
"Well, three songs, indeed!" said Galen.
"Huh?
Li Ronghao's eyes widened, and he pinched his fingers to calculate the time, "This, this is less than three days?"
Galen smiled, noncommittal, but unacknowledged.
Liu Xiayu glanced at him meaningfully and said, "Then let's listen to the third song first!"
"Hey!"
Li Ronghao was a little compelled to click on the third song to play.
The accompaniment of this song was played by Galen himself, using an electric guitar and an acoustic guitar, and it was recorded in two parts, including the middle recording and recording several times, because there were too many overlapping passages in the middle, and the re-singing part, and the original version of the song was not sung by one person.
There is no enclosed silence of a recording studio, and no advanced equipment can handle the effects.
As soon as the prelude to this song came, there was a cacophony.
Liu Xiayu, a person who pursues the ultimate perfection in music, frowned at the moment.
Li Ronghao glanced at Liu Xiayu, then looked at Galen, and his eyebrows were raised and lowered.
He was depressed, why did this song feel much worse than the previous two songs, both in terms of accompaniment and recording effects?
But when Galen's singing came out, they didn't think so—
"Goodbye my love, I-Wanna-Say-Goodbye!"
"Goodbye to my past, I-Want-a-New-Life!"
"Goodbye my tears, falls, and failures!"
"Goodbye to that youthful and frivolous era!"
"Goodbye, my troubles are no longer alone!"
"Goodbye my cowardice, no more crying!"
“……”
The jumping rock elements in this song are paired with rap, and the rock and roll that I usually hear is not a feeling at all, there is no such anger, mania and gloom, but it is very youthful and sunny, full of vitality.
And the combination of the two genres is not the same as the kind of rap rock underground.
No swearing, no aggression, no brainless catharsis, giving a positive feeling.
After listening to the song, Liu Xia looked at Galen, "What is this song called?"
"My Sky!" Galen replied.
"What do you want to express in this song?" asked Liu Xiayu again.
"Uh......" Galen thought for a moment and said, "Spread a positive energy!"
"Positive energy?"
After Liu Xiayu heard this word, the whole person was confused.
The word positive energy was copied by Galen from another world, and he also saw the word in other people's words, but at that time he just felt that the word was very novel, and today Liu Xiayu suddenly asked him so, and he said it casually.
Unexpectedly, when Liu Xiayu first heard this word, he had a different feeling, and he clapped his hands directly and said, "Okay! Your album is based on this song, and the album will be named "Positive Energy"! You are writing a few songs to come out, and strive to release the film at the end of the year!"
Galen smiled and nodded, but muttered in his heart, it doesn't take the end of the year, the song can be put together before the end of the month, but as for whether the film can be released, it depends on the company's production.
"Wait a minute!" At this time, Li Ronghao said, "Mr. Liu, do you want to listen to the first two songs, I think the first two songs are also very good!"
He felt that Liu Xiayu was a little sloppy, because the first two songs were also very suitable as the main songs, and even in his opinion, the first two songs felt much better than this "My Sky".
Liu Xiayu nodded, "Listen to it!"
So Li Ronghao hurriedly let go of the first song "Nunchucks".
Liu Xiayu's feeling when she first heard this song was similar to Li Ronghao, but her expression was not as exaggerated as Li Ronghao.
She only listened to a small part of the second song "Love Before the A.D.", but now that she has heard the whole song, she can't believe it at first, this is actually from the same person's hand?
The style has changed too much, right?
And she also found that the first two songs were better than the third song, so she began to hesitate!
Which one should be the main song?
