Chapter 134: Epikhigh
After Kim Do-joon got home, he simply ate dinner and took a shower to rest.
I have to continue my busy life from tomorrow onwards, and I have to get up early in the morning to go to work.
There are still two songs that have not been created, and they are indeed a bit rushed, and they have been delayed for a while, and if they don't hurry up, they may not be able to complete the task, and it will not only be themselves who will lose face at that time.
The entire Leessang group and company will lose face because they can't complete the task, which is completely unbearable for Kim Do-joon.
Early the next morning, Kim Do-joon asked Han Sung-ho to send him to the recording studio early.
As early as some time ago, when Kim Do-joon was still filming in Japan, he took Epikhigh's songs to heart.
I usually have some free time to ponder, and I know that they are completely different from my own group, Leessang.
Although they are all hiphop groups, they all have different developments in their respective fields because of the personnel.
Epikhigh is two rappers and a DJ, so the style of the song is much faster than Leessang, and the two groups have both similarities and differences.
Tablo is the captain of epikhigh and the lead singer.
There is no difference of one percent between what is on standard TV and what kind of person is in private.
However, Tablo has a long history of depression, sometimes has a very childlike personality, hates authority, does not trust any directors, writers, not even the ATM machines of banks, and loves to gnaw nails.
Djtukutz,After being a B-boy for 5 years, he instantly became interested in DJ and then changed jobs.,And Tablo is two producers in epikhigh.,Responsible for the gangstarap part.,Very lively personality.,Love to make an atmosphere.、Love to steal words and steal the scene.。
Of course, he loves his machine more than the camera, so every time he appears on music shows and variety shows, he is a well-deserved human flesh background. A look of "I'm handsome".
I'm very funny, whether it's words or body movements, it's a perfect match for tablo.
As for Jin, he was born in 1983. has been silently following behind the two big brothers, like a docile polar bear, a bit like Kim Taewoo in God.
Although it looks very rugged and unshaven, it looks a little old. Actually, it's not that old.
When he was in high school, he was very handsome, and his graduation photo was recognized by Huangfu as Jiang Dongyuan, but later he gained weight, and he didn't look good.
Very similar to Dynamicduo's Choiza, many people thought they were brothers.
When different from his domineering appearance, he is introverted, docile, and casual, very shy, and doesn't like to talk much.
For a long time, he was the only one in Epikhigh who had a girlfriend.,It's a good gentleman.。
Both Epikhigh and leessang are known for their well-written words, but the two combinations go in completely different directions.
Leessang's grasp of small emotions is very appropriate and in place. This is also why many boys and girls can resonate after listening to leessang's songs, and even leave tears with excitement, which is the advantage and disadvantage of leessang.
Epikhigh's creative focus is much larger, and many of their songs, some condemn the government, some tell ghost stories, condemn medical personnel, and write to prostitution sellers.
The subject matter is very old in the hiphop world, not new. But they wrote all the lyrics into poems, so the grade was raised all of a sudden.
Flow means that each MC has its own way of rapping intonation, pitch, rhythm, etc., which is their flow, such as Gary's rap. It is notoriously difficult to learn, and the experts in the hiphop industry throughout the Korean entertainment industry say that Gary's rap is very difficult to learn.
And Tablo's congenital conditions are very poor as a rapper, his voice is really not suitable for singing rap, and his lung capacity is not good, which is a very fatal factor for rapper singers. No matter how much you practice flow the day after tomorrow, you can't change it.
However, because I got a very good teammate, I can cooperate so tacitly, so Tablo has not released a solo album until now, so I can figure it out.
The biggest reason why Epikhigh is so famous and powerful is that everyone's advantages are well combined.
Beat,To put it simply, it's accompaniment.,Hiphop is probably one of the most attentive accompaniment music.,To be honest here,epikhigh should be called not holding back.,Their advantage is that there are no shortcomings.。
This Leessang group is more or less lacking, and even now that Kim Do-joon has joined, there is no problem with changing the accompaniment.
Sometimes disability leads to progress, and disability makes perfect, isn't it?
At the end of 2005, Epikhigh reached the top with the song "fly", this achievement is not an ordinary summit, at first glance I thought it was just an ordinary one, but in fact, it actually has a lot of significance, "fly" did something that no one else dared to do, that is, it interrupted the champion of TVXQ's "risingsun" of S.M company and drove them off the throne, and the value of this summit is very great.
Kim Do-joon carefully considered how this song could fit Eekhigh's positioning, and what their group was good at, which was completely different from Leessang, so his group's songs were completely unsuitable for Eekhigh.
Therefore, the first element of the song is that the rhythm should be much faster than before, and there should be a sense of gap between the main song and the chorus, and the arrangement must be very irregular.
Kim Do-joon hummed the melody casually, just creating himself, usually half-lying in a chair and spinning the pen in his hand.
From time to time, sit up straight and write on the paper.
When I was in Japan, I had already thought about it, but now it's just a matter of processing.
When singers are creating, they generally correspond to what they are good at, just like rap singers, who generally don't write trot songs, and hiohop singers don't create rock 'n' roll.
Man is not a genius. It is not omnipotent, and it is impossible to do what you want to do across professions and industries.
This is the case with Kim Do-joon, although he agreed to write songs for Epikhigh and Bigbang, and to put it bluntly, it's all because of hip-hop music. If it were to be another idol group, Kim Do-joon might not have agreed so happily.
He is not a god either, how can he create so many songs, it is not practical at all.
Only catch what you do best, what you like the most. can go farther and farther on the road of music, otherwise it will always stand still.
You ask a singer who sings lyrical songs to write R&B songs, is it his life?
Kim Do-joon slammed his leg on the table, kept shaking the stool under his buttocks, shook it rhythmically, muttered to himself, and took off his hat and grabbed his hair from time to time.
Creation is exposure to a large number of things in real life, and new discoveries are made every day. These things are often in a state of no processing, no beauty or ugliness, through understanding, familiarity, and understanding, in order to deeply feel the joy of aesthetics, trigger the creation of **.
When Kim Do-joon was filming in Japan, it was because he came into contact with a lot of actors of their respective genres, and a lot of fun and interesting things happened, that he would take a break to ponder songs, which is also part of finding inspiration, no one is born to write songs.
That's not man, it's God!
"It looks like it's going to be the same as your own combination. I need a girl to do FEAT, who is it to invite? ”
Kim Do-jun bit the pen and muttered quietly.
The tune has already been composed, some time ago. I've already made a draft myself, and I'm here today to perfect it.
I haven't thought of the name of the song yet, it's a little rough, and the arrangement has just been completed, and it still needs to be processed and repaired.
The scratch paper was full of places that needed to be revised, and Kim Do-joon also looked a little distressed. Because it was the first time to create a song with such a fast tempo, it was a bit difficult, and the rhythm was not very easy to grasp, so it took time to reorganize it.
The recording studio was very quiet, because it was probably for Brother Tiger's personal use, almost no one came to disturb him, and Kim Do-jun also specially called Brother Tiger when he came, saying that he was going to requisition his recording studio, and he should not come and disturb him if he had nothing to do.
Unexpectedly, Brother Tiger said with a smile.
"As long as you kid can write songs, it's okay to tear down my studio!"
Kim Do-jun smiled and didn't speak, now he didn't have the heart to joke, he was very serious when he worked, and his attitude was also very professional, and his frowning brows revealed what he was troubled about.
Looking up at the equipment in the room, Kim Do-joon sighed.
"In the future, I will also get a recording studio like this myself, it will be too troublesome every time I come out!"
Creation is a boring and boring thing, only when you grasp that little bit of inspiration, can you experience happiness, like a waterfall, your thoughts are like a spring rushing down, out of control.
Now Kim Do-jun is like a father outside the delivery room, looking through the glass that the mother in the delivery room is struggling heartbreakingly, but she still hasn't finished giving birth, it is estimated that the mood at this time is the same as Kim Do-jun.
The song is almost finished, but there is always something missing, the melody and rhythm, and the accompaniment sound good, and they are also marked with feat, but I feel that some places are not very comfortable, and ambivalence fills Kim Do-joon's heart.
"Forget it! Anyway, let's go eat! ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he stood up and got dressed and prepared to go to dinner.
The weather was already very cold in November, and the first thing Kim Do-joon did when he entered the recording studio was to turn on the heater, and he shivered from the cold.
Han Chenghao also left directly after sending him here today, and there was no way for Kim Do-jun to deal with it casually at noon.
The weather outside is too cold, and there is no need for Han Chengmei to send it over in person, and it is the same as going back to eat at night.
As soon as he went downstairs, he met the company's trainees, and Kim Do-jun listened to their voices and vaguely remembered that they were the guys who were secretly talking about themselves behind their backs when they were in the bathroom.
I should have been very angry, but looking at the young faces of several trainees, full of childish looks, the anger in my heart suddenly disappeared without a trace, to put it bluntly, I was not a year or two older than them, but I felt that I had matured a lot!
"Hello, senior!"
When the three trainees saw Kim Do-jun, they immediately leaned against the wall and bowed 90 degrees, and one of the tall boys took off his hat and looked very respectful.
Kim Do-jun walked over with a pacing step and said something slightly.
"Practice hard and strive to make your debut as soon as possible!"
He walked straight away, slowly disappearing to the end of the hallway.
"Brother Daojun, he's so handsome now, it's not the same person at all as when he first came, have you seen the movie starring him?"
The tall boy said loudly, not caring about being heard.
"Uh-huh! I went to watch the movie when it was first released some time ago, and the company's official website also issued a notice, and I only knew that after watching it, I found that Brother Daojun was really completely handsome, great! ”
The yellow-haired man next to him said with envy on his face, and raised his thumb.
"Okay, don't talk so much, hurry up and take a break and go practice! If you have time to envy others, it's better to practice more and strive to make your debut as soon as possible! (To be continued.) )
