After Christmas, Huang Zhijian contacted Ye Zi again. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Lao Huang, it's no problem when you come over to record, just tell me the time. Christmas has just been busy, and I haven't had anything to do for the past two days. ”

After receiving the call, Ye Zi readily agreed to Huang Zhijian's request to come over and continue recording.

Regarding Huang Zhijian's unbalanced mentality, Ye Zi also persuaded a few words, but it had no effect. As the best developed one among the younger generations, Ye Zi's persuasion is obviously not convincing, and if he talks too much, it will make Lao Huang muttered in his heart - Xiao Yezi, this guy...... Are you laughing at me?

People with an unbalanced mentality must have strange thoughts in their hearts, otherwise they would not have gotten into the horns of the bull and couldn't climb out. Ye Zi didn't want to lose Huang Zhijian, a good partner and friend, so keeping his mouth shut was the best way to deal with it. Since there is no effective way to think about it, Ye Zi can only let it go, waiting for Huang Zhijian to come out of his unbalanced mentality, or something variable will wake him up.

After a few days of rest, now it's ...... All right?

Thinking in his heart, Ye Zi couldn't stop in his mouth: "Huh, I said Lao Huang, what are you polite to me, tomorrow?" Then come over in the afternoon, I don't have classes tomorrow afternoon. ”

"Don't don't, don't, listen to me Lao Huang, let's finish the matter first, and then talk about eating and drinking, okay? It's just the last trembling, tomorrow we all work harder, and it's over when the album is completely done, and then we'll open up and have a good drink. ”

"That's right...... Uh-huh, well, okay, I'll wait for you tomorrow. ”

……

Ye Zi really hoped that Huang Zhijian could successfully complete the recording after the break, but ...... The progress of things shows that Ye Zi's thoughts are a bit wishful thinking.

"Lao Huang, that ......" Ye Zi scratched the hair of his sideburns with a little headache: "Then you come out and rest first, I'll record Lao Yang's work first." ”

“…… All right. After a long time, Huang Zhijian's voice came out of the monitor speakers.

After a while, Huang Zhijian appeared in the control room with his head down and a guitar, and sat silently on the back sofa. The guitar was put aside, Huang Zhijian took off his glasses, stretched out his fingers and squeezed his eyebrows and around his eye sockets, and the whole person looked very depressed.

Today, when he came over, he was still in good condition, and even when Ye Zi made early adjustments, there was no problem with his performance. But once he officially started recording, his state disappeared again, and he couldn't listen to the guitar he played, so that the other four in the band also played with him twice in vain.

Although Ye Zi didn't say it at this time, Huang Zhijian ...... in his heart But he clearly knew why Ye Zi stopped. The rest of the band, of course, is also very aware of this.

Huang Zhijian's whole person felt bad.

"Lao Yang, let's start with your drums, pay attention to the stability of the rhythm, I grabbed it a little twice just now." Ye Zi beckoned to Huang Zhijian, said hello, and immediately began the recording of other musical instruments.

At such a time, there is no need to say words of comfort or explanation, according to Huang Zhijian's arrogant temper, those words are in vain, and it is easy to cause misunderstanding. Anyway, there was enough time today, so Ye Zi decided to record all the other instruments first, and then record Huang Zhijian's lead guitar. With this time of rest and buffer, maybe ...... Huang Zhijian's state suddenly came back?

……

Drummer Yang Zhengming also held a fire in his heart.

Yang Zhengming is not very anxious about the predicament of recording, he has enough experience and experience to adjust his mentality. He's the only one of the five in the band who's ever been out and about, and he knows how to face the predicament in front of him. Since Ye Zi has given the band full support, everyone can come and enter the studio to record anytime and anywhere, so solving such a dilemma is nothing more than a matter of time, sooner or later. But for the band's captain Huang Zhijian, Yang Zhengming really has something to say in his heart.

But...... Considering that the band is a whole, Huang Zhijian was also very tolerant of Yang Zhengming when he was occasionally in poor condition in the past, and Yang Zhengming took back some of what he wanted to say. When the "little bell" and "little mouse" complained about Huang Zhijian, he also helped explain a few words. The album has been recorded to the last song, so don't make any infighting or anything like that at this time, you don't have to let people see jokes. Although Ye Zi definitely won't say anything, ...... It's ugly, isn't it?

Therefore, Yang Zhengming's heart has always been holding back a fire, which caused him to unconsciously accelerate forward a little bit when playing. In ordinary performances, such a slight acceleration is not only not a disadvantage, but also an advantage, which is extremely suitable for the requirements of live singing. But now in the recording, that's the real problem.

"Xiao Yezi, wait for me a little while, give me a minute."

Yang Zhengming shouted to stop Ye Zi's continued movements, took a few deep breaths, adjusted his breathing rate, and then casually said in one direction: "Little Yezi, I'm fine." ”

In the drum recording hut, there are radio microphones everywhere, and Yang Zhengming doesn't need to deliberately look for it, his words can be transmitted.

That's a lot of fun.

"Okay Lao Yang, I'll still give you two bars of click (metronome beats) in front of you, and after your drum comes in four bars, I'll turn off click."

"Lao Yang, the rhythm must be stable."

As he spoke, Ye Zi reached out and pressed the button and pushed the faders on the track.

The clear rhythm of clicks rings in the monitors and in each player's headphones.

……

"Lao Yang, you are a cow! Another day, I will definitely invite Tang Nu to try it with you, Lao Yang, I tell you that you are definitely not worse than him! After pressing the recording button, Ye Zi couldn't help but grab the talking microphone and shouted.

In this recording just now, Yang Zhengming's DW drum kit not only has a clear drum beat, a clear rhythm, and is appropriate, but also does it in one go without error. This song has been recorded so far, and it is the first time that it has been played so perfectly, especially the most difficult part of the song, which is simply flawless.

The song composed by Huang Zhijian is a three-part a-b-c asana, and it is better to say elsewhere, but there is a rhythmic transition between the B and C sections, and the song has to be converted from a 4/4 beat to a 3/4 beat. It is said that this kind of rhythm change is not particularly difficult, and it may be difficult for ordinary musicians, but it is not enough for a good player like Yang Zhengming. However, in order to achieve certain effects when arranging the music, Huang Zhijian deliberately designed the bar time of these two sections to be the same before and after, which made it quite difficult for the orchestra to perform. The most difficult thing is the jazz drum under Yang Zhengming, the rhythm before and after is extremely difficult to grasp and steady, which is very good for the level of the school drummer.

The same time before and after? What does this mean?

This means that the first B section and the following C section are the same length for each measure.

Still not clear?

Let's be clear.

For example, if the 4/4 beat rhythm of the first B section is a 2-second bar, then the 3/4 beat rhythm of the next C section is the same 2-second measure. To be more specific, a 2-second bar is converted to 0.5 seconds at a 4/4 beat, but 0.666 seconds at a 3/4 beat. To put it another way, this means that when the metronome is clicked four times, the jazz drum should be struck three times evenly.

You can imagine the difficulty in between.

This is also the reason why Yang Zhengming deliberately asked Ye Zi to turn off click, and turning on click will bring him some interference.

Yang Zhengming's jazz drums were converted from a 4/4 beat rhythm of 0.5 seconds to a 3/4 beat rhythm of 0.666 seconds without any mistakes - this is extremely difficult to do! If the inner sense of rhythm is not extremely strong, it is simply impossible to do this.

It is the Asian drum king Tang Nu who has been replaced by the Xiangjiang music scene. Esley came to play this section, and that was it, and he didn't necessarily do it every time.

Lao Yang is really very good!
