Chapter 107: Question

officially started recording, and it was obviously not appropriate to say anything concerned or take care of it at this time, so Li Zhixian and Huang Productions were sitting in front of the control table with solemn faces.

F(x)'s girls have all entered the recording room, each holding a copy of the script, and Lee Joo-young will always hide from being discovered at the most opportune time.

So at this time, the only people who really made a sound in the entire room were Li Zhixian and Huang Zhuang.

"You first divide the parts according to the script, and try the recording for the first time with your own feelings." After Li Zhixian saw that they were all wearing headphones, he gave the first instruction after the recording began.

"That, Lee Production......" Without paying special attention to the blank eyes of several girls in the recording room, Lee Joo-young, who was familiar with the musical literacy of several people, immediately stepped forward to stop Lee Zhixian's further actions, "Several of them don't have this level yet." ”

was just a little stunned, Li Zhixian understood what he meant, and realized that he was indeed a little arbitrary and too taken for granted. In the past, the musicians who came into contact with them were either engaged in creation for a long time, or had good musical literacy and rich knowledge of music theory, so it was taken for granted that a few of them as singers naturally knew how to read music and read music, so they automatically ignored their identity as another layer of idol.

It's not a prejudice against idols, it's just that most of today's idol industry is like mass-produced products, which leads to their lack of autonomy and creativity.

In the event of a sudden change, Li Zhixian quickly made adjustments, changed the original intention of letting them show their own characteristics first, and put his finger on the microphone button to give another instruct: "Have you all heard the original song "Candyman"? ”

"Inside!" The five replied in unison.

"You change the original high-pitched falsetto to a mid-bass, and after the chorus goes into the chorus, including Victoria's, it rises to the middle two degrees higher, so try that first."

However, except for Amber who began to write something after hearing it, Luna arched her eyebrows thoughtfully, and the other three were like lost schoolchildren, you look at me, I look at you, and they don't know how to act.

"Ahem ......" was a little embarrassed, but as the person in charge of f(x), Lee Joo-young had to come forward again at this time, and at the same time, he secretly resolved in his heart that he would strengthen their music theory training class after the album event was over.

"This ...... Li Production, do you think you can express it a little more simply and clearly? ”

Because they were talking to several people in front of f(x), Lee Ji-hyun noticed their abnormality through the glass window of the recording studio before Lee Joo-young spoke, and his expression was obviously overwhelmed.

Isn't that simple enough?

Li Zhixian felt a little incredulous.

Frankly speaking, in his opinion, the scale is already the most basic quality of a music practitioner, if you can't even distinguish between this, how can you sing the difference between high and low notes.

What was even more incomprehensible to him was that the inaction of Sulli and Victoria, who had sung ost and more than one song, was an unexpected surprise to him.

What's more, just two days ago, he clearly went through the voice with her twice when he was in the right words, and even told Krystal to let her prepare the recording in advance and practice more, judging from her current expression, it was obvious that she had done useless work.

He was a little to blame Krystal for that.

Noticing Li Zhixian's special gaze, Krystal bit his lip wordlessly.

It's not that she hasn't done her homework, but out of habitual thinking about traditional cover songs, she follows the method suggested before, and practices that are attached to the singing method of the original song. Although she is not ignorant of music theory, it is difficult for her to find time in her busy schedule to become proficient. Therefore, she did not spend energy on the tadpole text on the score, but mainly spent her mind on figuring out her feelings.

At first glance, when I heard that Li Zhixian was going to change the tune, I thought that he had changed the arrangement again, and panic was inevitable.

In fact, for Li Zhixian, it doesn't matter if he prepares in advance, it's just a little more effort, so he doesn't care about Krystal's entanglement at all.

It's just that a few people except Amber and Luna, their music level below the expected value really makes things a little tricky, if you can usually complete the recording through repeated attempts and hands-on teaching, in fact, as far as he knows, most idol recordings are honed out in this way.

But the situation was urgent, and he obviously didn't want to use such a time-consuming and laborious stupid method.

For a moment, Li Zhixian's brows were furrowed, and his fingers were placed around the buttons and constantly tapping rhythmically on the tabletop.

The method was never held back, and for five minutes, the entire recording room was silent, except for the sound of percussion and the sound of breathing.

This kind of heavy atmosphere is not suitable for recording, and a sentence made by Huang Chuan broke the silence: "Zhixian, it is better to let them try it according to the middle and low notes of the previous singing, and then adjust or use the computer to fine-tune it, it is not a way to do it all the time." ”

Li Zhixian had no choice but to sigh: "For the time being, I can only do this first." ”

Adjusting his mood and trying to make his tone sound unusual, Li Zhixian said to the recording room through the microphone: "Krystalxi, do you remember the two sentences that I said to you two days ago?" ”

"Inside, remember!"

"It's just your part at the beginning, you can simply demonstrate the singing method to the others, and follow this method first."

"Inside!"

Not long after he finished speaking, Li Zhixian heard a soft singing voice through the stereo, followed by a slightly chaotic chorus.

Another five minutes later, after a brief silence, the recognizable voice of Victoria came out: "Li Production, we are almost ready, can we try to record it first?" ”

"Yes."

After speaking, he glanced at the recording assistant, and the accompaniment began to play.

Speaking of f(x) a few people count single albums, after all, they are also serious singers who have released 6 albums, and they are impossible to be unfamiliar with the recording room that has been in and out countless times, and the sense of improvement that can be brought to singing skills in the recording room is naturally clear, so the first trial recording was quickly completed, but it brought a lot of surprises to Li Zhixian.

Starting from Krystal, not only did the timing of the main song enter accurately, but even the lyrics maintained a good smoothness, and even the chorus part that Lee Ji-hyun was most worried about was driven by the luna pitch change, and gradually moved closer to the direction envisioned by Lee Ji-hyun.

And then this is only their first recording after all, Yu does not hide the flaws, and the cooperation between them cannot hide the reality that most of their members lack musical background, and the misalignment, inaccuracy, stiffness, confusion, and lack of emotion are really problematic.
