The director of the album pressed the red button on the mixer, and the music in Zhang Guorong's headset stopped in an instant and fell silent!

"Rong Zai, you just had two notes out of tune!" I saw the black-looking Filipino Lutony wearing earplugs and saying into the microphone. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Gu Jiahui and Huang Mu are songwriters, Huang Mu has at most one more role as a music director, and Lu Dongni is the director of this album, and he is the person who talks about this album.

This man is very talented and has written a lot of songs.

Teresa Teng's classic track "The Moon Represents My Heart" is his work, and she is officially active in the Hong Kong music industry.

Mainly engaged in soundtrack arrangement, there are also some compositions come out, as PolyGram's master arranger, he can be described as a godfather-level figure, generation after generation of kings, divas superstars under him, another time and space Polygram all singers of the song is compiled by him!

He has written more than 1,000 Hong Kong pop songs, and many popular classics are as starry as the sky, which can be called a miracle.

A large part of the overall quality of Hong Kong pop music comes from the sweat of Filipino musicians.

Arguably

Filipino musicians have been the pillars of Xiangjiang pop music since its inception, and without Filipino musicians, Xiangjiang pop music would never be where it is today!

Therefore, in Xu Wenhui's team, musicians from the Philippines account for almost half of them.

······

······

Zhang Guorong's forehead suddenly had a black line, and there was no way to do it.

Because you need to wear a headset when recording, the most important function of this thing is sound insulation.

There is a "wet sound" that has already been done, that is, music that includes accompaniment and singing.

And Zhang Guorong needs to listen to the accompaniment, grasp the rhythm and pitch, and then sing on the microphone of the recording, which is the so-called "dry voice"!

Other words

The sound engineer in front of the mixing table, he can only hear the voice of the singer when he sings.

The industry saying is "listen to the wet record dry"!

It is for this reason that when recording, singers tend to amplify every advantage and disadvantage of their voice to the greatest extent.

Because of this, Zhang Guorong put on headphones, and when he was surrounded by his own singing, the whole world seemed to be surrounded by his own voice!

This made Zhang Guorong feel very weird.

Because of this, he himself immediately lost a lot of touch with pitch and rhythm, and it is not surprising that he lost his pitch.

········

Zhang Guorong said with a smile, "It's really embarrassing." ”

After speaking

He couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Everyone across the glass, including Xu Wenhui, couldn't help laughing out loud when they heard the words.

No way

It's really funny!

········

It's hard to write music, but it's not easy to arrange it, especially if you want to make the accompaniment of the song resonant and beautiful, it's quite difficult.

The second start

Another burst of laughter rang out

Zhang Guorong is also helpless, because his head always unconsciously cares about the original song in his ears, so this will not be accurate!

No wonder some people say that some people are inherently unfit for a recording studio!

Because a professional recording studio will strip away all the embellishments in the sound, so to do this is to express the most original performance, which is definitely a challenge!

Of course, Zhang Guorong will not feel frustrated because of this, that is too underestimating him.

They didn't rush him

Although Lutony is also a newcomer, he is a natural genius, so let him relax and try slowly.

And the four girls Mei Yanshu, Su Rui, Cai Qin, and Chen Xiuwen stood beside Xu Wenhui and listened quietly, they were learning from experience and reducing the mistakes when it was their turn to record in the future!

"Stop, this section can't be in the key of D, you can try it in the key of E!"

"No, this piece can't be inserted into this instrument, the timbre is too bright, you can try to change the instrument!"

"No, this one is too fluttering, it doesn't reflect the loneliness of this lyric, let's change the song to something else!"

……

Lu Dongni is really ruthless, almost every minute, it has to stop Zhang Guorong's performance, and then give his own views and opinions, he is professional.

guided Zhang Guorong to complete the progress slowly.

There is no doubt that these songs that Xu Wenhui took out are all beautiful and classic songs, at least Zhang Guorong himself is very sure that each of these songs is a major hit!

To be honest, it's a great blessing to be lucky enough to get so many classics.

Zhang Guorong himself felt that this was his eldest brother Xu Wenhui's care for him, which made him very moved.

It's true

There is also the help of the two saints, which is not only a great honor, but at the same time it is an invisible pressure!

There are so many hao works, you must at least sing them worthy of their value, right?

Therefore, Zhang Guorong is really not happy, even if there is no strict requirements from Lu Dongni, he himself will not take it lightly.

Recording

Recording

If it doesn't work once, do it again, if it doesn't work twice, then move on a third time.

really

Zhang Guorong, who is familiar with the rhythm of the recording studio, completed the recording of a song, showing a performance above the standard.

……

After the song, Zhang Guorong opened his eyes and saw through the glass in front of him that the recording engineers Lu Dongni and Xu Wenhui and others in the control room all gave him a thumbs up, and he couldn't help but show a relaxed smile on his face.

Step into the control room

Lu Dongni replayed the recording, Zhang Guorong closed his eyes slightly and listened carefully, and when the song was finished, he said excitedly: "I myself sound pretty good." ”

Recording engineer Shuo Shuo said with admiration: "The meaning of this song "Love Hurts More Once" is very profound, it requires a lot of emotional investment when singing, it is not easy for ordinary people to sing well, I didn't expect Rong Zai to be so young and able to perform it so perfectly, it's really great......"

Having said that, the song "Love One More Time Hurts More Time" was composed by Tong Ange, lyrics by Lin Xi, and arranged by Lu Dongni, which was included in Principal Tan's 93 album "Laughing at Life", but the song is a cover of Tong Ange's 1992 song "Love and Sorrow".

This time, Lu Dongni was still in charge of arranging, but the interpretation from the principal changed to Zhang's style, and the chemical effect produced made Xu Wenhui feel very curious.

The end result is that it is different from Principal Tan's version, but it still sounds good.

Having said that, at this time, Zhang Guorong, because he sang two mature Cantonese songs "Children" and "The Wind Continues to Blow" in advance, was already ahead of Principal Tan in this regard.

The style of Cantonese songs has also gradually become clear.

"No, it's all written by the eldest brother, and I think his music concept is amazing. Zhang Guorong said modestly.

Speaking of which

Anita Mui

Su Rui

Cai Qin

Chen Xiuwen and several others also looked at Xu Wenhui with admiration.

This man is amazing

This man is so talented

This man ....... A few women who fell into the mode of glittering brain make-up test praise.......

Xu Wenhui is completely in the recording studio with everyone today, and he also participates in the guidance of recording records, trying over and over again, correcting over and over again, maybe a piece of music will be played by more than a dozen instruments, just to find the most suitable instrument.

So you can imagine how excited and relaxed Zhang Guorong was when he finally got the accompaniment tape, it was like escaping from suffering!

And this one

The most important thing for Xu Wenhui is to show some mature ideas to everyone.

Fertilizer and water don't flow into outsiders' fields

Lu Dongni and Zhang Guorong, as well as the band began to play according to Xu Wenhui's arrangement, and the effect was really much better than before.

Gu Jiahui and Huang Mu looked at each other, and both of them saw the joy in each other's eyes - Xu Wenhui not only wrote songs superbly, and his mature style walked ahead of everyone, but many of his ideas were also ahead of his time, reminding him that performances often work surprisingly well.

After this record is finished, their level of arrangement is absolutely top-notch.

Even if they don't get paid for nothing, it's worth it this time.

So

Zhang Guorong and Anita Mui originally planned to record the record in a week, but it was extended to more than half a month.

Because the top and bottom want to keep improving to create two albums

However, in the past half a month, Xu Wenhui has become musical confidants with Gu Jiahui, Lu Dongni and others.

Coupled with Zhang Guorong and 4 female singers, several young people exchanged their experiences in singing, creation, and arrangement with each other, and everyone gained a lot!

It wasn't until the 90s that a well-known music magazine wrote: "It was a musical event - in this gathering called 'Xu's Sword Discussion', several young people who were full of love for music completed the first fusion of old and new pop Cantonese songs with their unique views on music." The two vinyl albums, titled "The Wind Continues to Blow" and "Anita Red", are widely regarded as the pinnacle of Cantonese songs, laying a solid foundation for the development of Chinese music in the next 20 years......

……

……

Half a month later.

Xu Wenhui's office.

Wu You took out two printed envelopes from the briefcase he was carrying, which were obviously samples.

Today, Wu and Huang Mu came to find Xu Wenhui together, the most important thing is to determine the final positioning of Zhang Guorong and Mui Yanshu's first album, as well as the sample of the envelope!

Xu Wenhui took the black envelope, put it in his hand and looked through it carefully, nodded, and then put it on the coffee table.

Black as the base

At the edge of the left side, a street lamp sprinkled with white light, stretched out a piece of the world, and there was a person on the ground shrouded in light, handsome and stimulating people's eyes, fascinating all beings, who is not Zhang Guorong?

Underneath is still the scribbled handwriting of "Zhang Guorong".

This cover was designed by Xu Wenhui personally when he found Zhang Shuping.

Turn it over on the back

The back cover is also black

There was also half a piece of light on the right.

The left side of the back cover is lined up with chic handwriting

Written is the track of twelve songs on the entire album

At the lower edge

It reads: "Produced by Rolling Stone International, Rolling Stone International Records Released"!

This is the new name of Xu's Records, which is the packaging of the whole album!

It is obvious that Zhang Guorong's early style is more avant-garde and uninhibited, with the rebellious and romantic style of Jamstian.

Compare it to

Anita Mui's record style is similar,

The avant-garde and rebellious female image, on the cover, Anita Mui is wearing a suit with sunglasses and wide padded shoulders to give people a heroic feeling, breaking the gentle image of traditional women!

At this time

Xu Wenhui said lightly: "The song has been recorded, very good, Wu He and Huang Sticky you cut the recorded album and send it to the product factory, ready to fill the record, this time we want to start the record market and play our prestige !!"

"Yes!" Wu You and Huang Mu were also excited.

The hard work and hard work of this time are finally about to pay off, how can it not be exciting!

I seized the time to record the record, and then the publicity effort did not fall, and all the work was carried out in an orderly manner.

······

In addition to helping out in the studio

Xu Wenhui is also responsible for the later stage of "Mr. Zombie", and the two sides are busy, but fortunately, he is the boss and has free time allocation, but he has a very fulfilling life without being too tired.

It's just that Zhong Chuhong's younger brother made Xu Wenhui full of anger with a phone call, and his words lingered in his ears, "Brother-in-law, if you don't come back, my sister will be soaked away!"

"Yes!! who !!!!" (To be continued.) )
