Chapter 182: Do Your Own Thing
"Nine veteran musicians, announced to join Ethereal"
"Three Kings and Four Queens Gather, the Strength of the Singer Far Exceeds the Dream of the World"
"Zhen Zhi, the No. 1 Rock Diva in China, New Album Ready to Go"
"Tang Jianjian's new album, the title song was leaked in advance"
"Deng Qi, sales exceed Qin Shiyue"
On this morning, on Ye Luo's table, there was a collection of yesterday's headlines collected by Tang Jinxiu.
"Boss, almost all the entertainment headlines in the past two days have been occupied by Ethereal Records." Tang Jinxiu reported, "As for your news, although you can see it on the entertainment page and make headlines on individual entertainment pages, on the whole, Universal's publicity investment is far less than that of Tianlai." ”
"Xiong Pinggui and them have the intention to kill the enemy, and they have no power to return to the sky." Ye Luo smiled and said, "No matter how rich the world is, it can't compare to Ke Hao's wealth, and in terms of publicity investment, there must be a gap." Besides, in terms of topicality, it is indeed easier to operate. Nine musicians, three kings and four queens, these all sound very powerful. ”
"The statement of the three kings and four queens is actually still somewhat controversial." Tang Jinxiu said, "At present, the three kings in China, Tang Jian, Chen Yi, and Nie Hua are recognized, and Deng Qi and Zhen Zhi in the four queens are no problem, but Meng Han and Wen Yuanshan, there are still people who disagree, especially Meng Han, whose qualifications are still shallow after all." ”
"It's good to have a controversy." Ye Luo said lightly, "Only when there is controversy will there be a public opinion backlash, and if there is a public opinion backlash, you can post follow-up comments and continue to make headlines." Didn't I do that a while ago? ”
"Boss, why don't you seem to be in a hurry at all?" Tang Jinxiu asked curiously.
"What's there to worry about." Ye Luo said with a smile, "It's going to rain, my mother is going to get married, and we can't take care of other people's affairs, right?" Just do your own thing. ”
"Hmm." Tang Jinxiu nodded. I went back to the outside office.
Ye Luo put on headphones and continued to work in front of the computer.
At present, Ye Luo's hand, Song Yan's first album, his work has been completed, and Hu Jianing's post-production zuò has also been seventy-seven, eighty-eight. Just wait for Ye Luo to listen to it again at the end, and then it can be directly sent to Universal to operate.
The second pair of songs of "The Journey of Love" has also been completed, and Huanyu just called yesterday, and the MV system has been completed, and it can be sent today.
According to the previously announced release time, the release of these two songs is the afternoon after tomorrow.
The song that Ye Luo has to deal with at hand at hand is the new album of Qin Shiyue and Rob.
Qin Shiyue is not in a hurry, her "Not Full of Lovers" has only been on sale for more than a month. Although the sales volume has been caught up by Deng Qi, there is still sales potential to be tapped, and the new album can wait a little longer.
It's Rob, who has signed a dream and has a little January, and it's time to make some moves and launch a new album.
So Ye Luo called Rob: "Come here this morning." ”
"Great!"
Rob lived very close to the studio, in a precinct, five minutes later. The kid swaggered into Ye Luo's studio and moved a stool to sit down.
"Sister-in-law is good." He first said hello to Chu Mo'er.
Chu Mo'er smiled and nodded. Then continue reading.
"Pick a song?" Ye Luo handed the headphones to Rob.
Rob took it and put it on his head, and Ye Luo put the arrangement samples one by one, and Rob listened to it in a daze.
"Which ones do you like?" After more than half an hour, Ye Luo asked.
"I like them all!" Rob took off his headphones and nodded heavily.
"Fuck off, there are twelve songs here, and eight on your new album is enough." Ye Luo flew this kid with a roll of his eyes.
"Then you can do it." Rob scratched his head. "Hey, by the way, last time you said you were going to give me the whole thrill, just now these tunes, I listened to it okay. Good is good, but not very exciting. ”
"Oh. I'm already sure to be the title song, so I don't have to pick it. Ye Luo smiled, "Want to listen?" ”
"It's not nonsense." Rob put on the headphones again.
Ye Luo smiled slightly, tuned out the tune and walked through.
"Exciting?" Ye Luo asked.
"Isn't it a little too exciting?" Rob was a little surprised, "This song is really high." ”
"That's why you've been pulling the treble lately." Ye Luo said, "If you really can't do it, I'll lower the tone." ”
"Don't!" Rob hurriedly waved his hand, "Although it is a little higher, I should be able to reach it." ”
"Are you convinced?" Ye Luo asked, "I can tell you, this is your first album, if the title song is this one, then in the short term, you will most likely be positioned as a high-pitched rock singer, and in the future, you will go to the cave to perform, sing high-pitched notes every day, and be as tired as your grandson, don't blame me." ”
"Don't be afraid, I, Rob, am born with an iron voice." Rob patted his chest.
"It's good that you have that confidence. In fact, the first album gave you this kind of positioning, and I can't help it. Ye Luo said, "You are different from Qin Shiyue and Song Yan, they already have a good popularity base, if the quality of the songs is good, the sales of the album can be guaranteed." And your current popularity, although it has been a little bit lately, can't be compared with them after all, and lacks accumulation. So rush with the high notes first, get off to a good start, and later, I'll give you some songs in other genres. ”
"Why are you explaining this to me?" Rob glanced at Ye Luo, "You are doing things, will I still be worried?" ”
"Okay, then you look at the lyrics of this song, let's go to the recording studio first." Ye Luo said.
……
On this morning, the studio was full of people. Not only Ye Luo, Hu Jianing, Yu Yiyi, and Chu Mo'er were here, but even Song Yan and several other girls also came.
Song Yan came to the recording studio, it is said that she was practicing the piano. And Zhang Jiaqi and them, because the bar owner Rob wants to record a song, they are purely to see the excitement.
Of course, the other three members of the Sky Dome were also present.
Rob's album was released under the name of the Sky Dome Band, and they would record it as a musician or something. When Rob sings, they also act as harmonies.
The title song of this new album, Ye Luo arranged the piano to go in, since Song Yan is here. Ye Luo didn't get started in person, and asked Song Yan to help play a section.
In the recording of this kind of music, the accompaniment and vocals are recorded separately, with the accompaniment and then the vocals.
Originally, recording accompaniment was a complicated thing. Because the arranger is not necessarily good at every instrument, when making a sample arrangement, he can only listen to the meaning, and some transitional melodies may require the musician to play freely.
However, Ye Luo's arrangement sample is very detailed, and the melody of each instrument is clearly explained, and even the audio is divided into tracks, and the musicians only need to listen to the audio. You can go down all over again, and you don't need to create it yourself.
In this way, it becomes simple to record accompaniment, not to mention Song Yan, a piano master, with the musical instrument skills of the group of boys in the Sky Dome Band, it can be done in the morning.
As soon as the accompaniment was made, it was played in the control room, and several girls were so excited that they couldn't do it.
"Haha. So high, Rob is dead! Lan Yingying smiled gloatingly. There was a good show in the afternoon. ”
After eating at noon, everyone gathered in the recording studio again.
Before Rob auditioned, Ye Luo first used the piano to play out the main melody of the vocals along with the accompaniment, and then asked Robb: "How is it?" Okay? No, it's too late for you to regret it now. It is also very quick to do another version of the accompaniment in a flat key. ”
"Okay, what's not to do." Rob said nonchalantly, and then the kid frowned again, "But you only play the main melody on the piano, and I can't hear the lyrics and words." Why don't you sing it in a flat tone first, and I'll hear what it means? ”
"Do I need to sing in a lower key?" Ye Luo glanced at Luo Bu and shook his head: "You, the basic skills are still not solid enough, Mo'er and Song Yan, I'll just play it once, it's just for you." ”
"Hey, hey." Rob scratched his head.
"Okay, then you listen to me sing first." Ye Luo said to Hu Jianing, who was in charge of the zhì room, "Brother Hu, let's go through the accompaniment." ”
"Wow! Ye Luo, this guy wants to sing such a high song! Lan Yingying in the control room became more and more excited, and several girls were also full of curiosity, and began to control the monitoring headphones in the room one by one.
"Don't rob! Both, both. Hu Jianing bent down with a smile, opened the cabinet door under the control stage, took out a few pairs of monitoring headphones, and distributed them to the girls in the room.
Ye Luo looked up in the recording studio, good guy, outside the glass window, a row of girls sat neatly, the only male Hu Jianing sat in the middle, and on the left hand side were Chu Moer, Wang Nicole, Song Yan, and Yu Yiyi. On the right hand side are Wang Nicole, Zhang Jiaqi, Lan Yingying, Chen Lu, and Li Xiuyun.
"You said for a while, if I finish singing and you can't sing, how many people will you lose?" Ye Luo glanced at Rob beside him and smiled slightly.
"That's why I'll let you sing in lower key." Rob rolled his eyes, "It's good to save some face for me, it's all my own brothers, why bother killing them all?" ”
"Thou art thou shalt not live." Ye Luo shook his head, "I made the song, but I have to sing it in a lower key, in front of everyone, I can't afford to lose that person!" ”
A group of girls outside the house, except for Song Yan, who just twitched the corners of her mouth, everyone else was about to laugh.
"I'm sorry Rob, I didn't turn off the wheat inside." Hu Jianing also smiled.
While speaking, Hu Jianing clicked the mouse and made a starting gesture inside.
In everyone's headphones, before the accompaniment sounded, Ye Luo's cappella opened his mouth and threw it out.
"If you die, you have to love, and if you don't drench it, you won't be happy......"
"Wow!" Several girls outside the house exclaimed in unison......
After Ye Luo finished singing, there was a cheer in the control room.
"It's so enjoyable!"
"Instructor, you're so good!"
"Jiaqi, you touch it, goosebumps all over my body stand up."
"Chen Lu, with your figure, what is there to touch. You're touching me, you see, even goosebumps, I'm more convex and backward than you. ”
“……”
In the recording engineer, Ye Luo cleared his throat, turned his head and said to Rob: "Okay, it's up to you." ”
Rob nodded, and said with a stern face: "Producer, recording engineer, I ask to clear the scene." ”
"What?" Ye Luo was stunned.
"Nima's." Rob said with a sad face, "You sing too easily, the contrast is so obvious, how can I mix in front of them in the future?" ”
