Chapter 32: New Songs of Ancient Sayings (2)

Although the keyboard in front of Ye Gui looks like a piano with black and white keys, it is actually the most professional one at the end of the twentieth century, with more functions and sound effects than the sound of the piano.

Turn on the power and tinker twice, the follow-up model of this keyboard Ye Gui has played with it in later generations, so it is very easy to use at this time.

Ye Gui first turned on the partitioning function of the keyboard, and then turned the sound effect of one area into an ethereal chorus sound effect.

Partitioning is a unique feature of electronic keyboards that allows you to divide all the keys on the keyboard into two parts, and tune out a different sound for each part.

Occasionally, we see bands with keyboards that play both strings and piano at the same time, and that's the reason.

The sound effect used by Ye Gui in the bass section at this time is a sound effect similar to string music, which can play a role in setting off the atmosphere. As for the treble section, Ye Gui chose an ordinary piano sound.

In fact, this song was originally accompanied by a guitar, but in order to sing it to several people completely, Ye Gui thought about it and used the piano instead.

After all, the guitar can't make this kind of sound effect, and the guitar alone can't fully express the artistic conception of the song.

The sound areas on both sides were adjusted, Ye Gui put the microphone next to the keyboard just now, adjusted the position, Ye Gui signaled to a few people outside that the preparation was completed, and then said into the microphone: "I heard Yue Sitong's album before, and there are several very ethnic songs in it, which reminds me of a few songs." ”

"The song I want to sing below, inspired by the folk songs of the Yi people, is about the strength of simple working people in life, they think that no matter what kind of difficulties you are experiencing, don't be afraid, the harsh winter will definitely pass, and we will always usher in spring. The song is called "Don't Be Afraid."

……

The wind is up

It's raining

The buckwheat leaves have fallen

The leaves are yellow

Time passes

The vicissitudes of time

Don't be afraid (Ajru)

Don't be afraid (Ajru)

……

The original work of "Don't Be Afraid" is a Yi musician, so the whole song is also sung in Yi language.

Ye Gui of later generations liked this song very much, because the lyrics of this song are simple, the melody is also very beautiful, and more importantly, the unique Yi pronunciation of this song brings the listener a sense of reality from life.

This song was written in 08, when it was included in a national band of the Yi nationality, but it really became famous a few years later, when a female singer sang it on a music program and became popular.

Ye Gui's singing at this time was according to the original boys' singing style, but the feeling of accompaniment was the version on the music program that was imitated.

The ethereal sound effects similar to strings at the bottom and the accompaniment of the adagio, and Ye Gui's warm voice, sound very moving, and actually sing a touch of minority folk songs.

Jiang Linfeng outside the recording room looked at Ye Gui in surprise, he had been in Lejia, the largest recording studio in the northwest, for several years, it can be said that he had seen a lot of music of various nationalities, and even he had recorded several of these very famous musicians.

But although the music he has seen is also very good, with very obvious local music characteristics, and many of them are also refreshing, none of them are like the song that Ye Gui sang at this time.

The national characteristics are very obvious, and the melody is so catchy, it can be felt from Ye Gui's accompaniment that he should also have a very good arrangement in his heart.

Jiang Linfeng's heart was full of thoughts in an instant.

After singing a section, Ye Gui's keyboard accompaniment changed, using a more intense sound effect to pave the way, while he closed his eyes and raised his head to repeat the chorus.

At this time, Ye Gui was like a farmer facing the crops in the rice field, and the joy of harvest made him sing loudly. Like a traveler who has reached his destination after trekking through mountains and rivers, the hardships he has experienced have become his precious memories, and the beautiful scenery in front of him makes him roar.

No matter the cold or heat, no matter the pain or suffering, do not be afraid, you must believe that spring will come.

Lu Haoming's eyes moistened, and he seemed to hear in the song that he had many difficulties in learning the piano for many years, and then finally obtained the admission qualification to a professional college.

When he sang the second chorus, Ye Gui sang loudly.

At this time, Ye Gui's singing voice was not so much embellishment, and it was not even as good as the main song of the first paragraph in terms of voice control, but Lu Haoming was so moved when he heard the music that Ye Gui sang loudly at this time.

This song is really beautiful.

After Ye Gui finished singing, he slowly raised his hand, and then got up to look at the few people outside the recording room.

His eyes were deep, like stars, and he looked at everyone quietly.

"It's so nice." Jiang Shan was the first to applaud and said: "Ye Gui, I didn't expect the song you wrote to be so beautiful, I seem to have really heard a song from the mountains." ”

Zhao Liang and several people also said that Ye Gui's song was beyond their imagination, and Liu Jie even said that Ye Gui's song alone was even better than the title song of Yue Sitong's last album.

Ye Gui showed a smile, this is natural, although Yue Sitong's album already has similar ideas to this song, but after all, in this era, there is still a lot of music development process missing.

If Yue Sitong had listened to the music of those years in his time, he might have written better songs.

But at this time, Yue Sitong can't, and it can even be said that in addition to the production of her album is stronger than Ye Gui, the rest of the songs can't compare to "Don't Be Afraid".

"Mr. Jiang, what do you think of this song?" Ye Gui asked Jiang Linfeng, who was silent, "Is it worth handing it to Yue Sitong?" ”

Jiang Linfeng nodded silently, revealing a complicated look: "You really opened my eyes today, the level of this song is indeed enough, not only that, but I am also sure that this song is Yue Sitong's favorite style." ”

Looking at Jiang Shan's somewhat puzzled looks, Jiang Linfeng explained: "The lyrics of this song are in dialect, and the feeling of the song sounds like it should be the feeling of a mountain song, but you have a good integration of the melody and this arrangement, and actually sang a pop song that is very acceptable to the public in this ancient dialect, which is exactly what Yue Sitong wanted to express in the last album." ”

"Yes, it's just that Yue Sitong, the singer, spent so much effort but didn't write a song that everyone accepts." After Jiang Linfeng finished speaking, Liu Jie also looked at Ye Gui and muttered: "On the contrary, it let Ye Gui, a high school student, take the lead, I really don't know what Yue Sitong's expression will be after hearing this song." ”

Ye Gui listened to Yue Sitong's album for a long time before, just to find the song path of this singer and come up with the right song, so at this time, Jiang Linfeng immediately felt that this song was like it was tailor-made for Yue Sitong.

Lu Haoming was happy for Ye Gui when he heard Jiang Linfeng say that he could hand this song to the legendary song, but he heard Jiang Linfeng continue: "But although your current version of the song is very good, the accompaniment is still a little thin, Yue Sitong, as a first-line singer in the mainland, usually listens to a sample in name only, but in fact, the completion of the song is already very high, if you take such a simple sample and send it, you may be despised by her." ”

Ye Gui smiled and said, "Then you have to trouble Teacher Jiang." ”

"Trouble me, what do you mean?" Jiang Linfeng was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Ye Gui incredulously: "You don't plan to record a sample of the complete arrangement now, right?" ”

"I've already thought about the arrangement of the song, so I should be able to record a demo faster than usual." Ye Gui looked at the surprised eyes of several people, and said slowly: "And there is more than one song, I have prepared three or four songs." ”
