Chapter 143: Recording
"Brother Tablo, who is Jisun?"
Kim Do-joon is still a newcomer in the entertainment industry, many unfamous singers don't know each other, and some singers are really good, but due to publicity and various resources, there is no way to become popular, so they can only barely survive through the introduction of friends and help do some feat and backing vocals.
"Jisun's real name is Hwang Ji Sun, he is the lead singer of LoveHolic, and he has sung OST for many TV series, and his voice is very feminine, which is very suitable for this song!"
As soon as Tablo finished speaking, Kim Do-joon fell into a daze, what loveholic, why have he never heard of it!
Quickly took out his mobile phone and looked up information about this band on the Internet.
Loveholic is a trio with a British modern rock flavor in the Korean music scene, creating a new Korean music trend in the Korean music scene dominated by idol groups and sad slow songs.
Born in 2002, the 2-male and 1-female Korean new trend rock group Loveholic has a magical musical melody, fashionable creativity, and a unique female singing style.
Their appearance is undoubtedly the beginning of a new chapter in Korean neo-rock.
It is not too emotional, but a natural and fresh way to interpret the song, which is also the official difference between other singers and groups, maintaining the original Korean flavor music, and then blending the flavor of British and American rock, a kind of music that makes the public sound comfortable and fresh.
Kim Do-joon also found out that the original lead singer Ji-sun had just quit the group in October 07, which was last month, and now he is developing in Woollim as an individual.
Just as Kim Do-joon was playing with his phone to find information about Jisun, Tukutz walked in with the phone and said with a smile.
"I just came to the company in the afternoon, and I said that it should not be a big problem!"
Since they all said so, it must have been arranged, Kim Do-jun pouted and sold a cute.
"Brother tablo. Eat at your place at noon, are you okay? ”
"Why, this is what we should do, there is a barbecue restaurant near the company. Let's go over at noon! I'm in for a treat. ”
When it came to barbecue, everyone was immediately interested, and so was Kim Do-joon.
I was still idling around looking at the various musical instruments in the room, but I immediately found a chair and sat down and began to discuss the new song.
It has little to do with Kim Do-joon. At most, it's just a suggestion.,After all, the copyright of the song is in your own hands.,There's nothing to care about.,Even if you write a song for Epikhigh.,At most, there's only the right to use and adapt.。
Tablo embodied the captain's consciousness at this time, and the three of them sat on the sofa and asked Kim Do-joon to write the lyrics on the computer, and then printed out the lyrics and gave each of them one copy.
Each of the three of them divided their own passages and began to practice first. Because I just got the song, I am not familiar with it yet, even if there are lyrics, I have to follow Kim Do-joon's sample music and smooth out the rap first.
After all, Kim Do-joon's rhythm is completely different from that of Eikhigh, and their respective combinations, styles, and habits, including the pronunciation, speed, and frequency of the words, require a process of adaptation.
Kim Do-jun had no choice but to look at the three of them, find a piece of paper casually, and study at the same time. While drawing, I took a pencil and recorded the situation in the recording studio.
I could only hear the sound of three people talking rap and the sound of "salsa" as Kim Do-joon painted.
Men who do things seriously are the most handsome, especially in their movements and expressions. Indescribable charm.
Kim Do-joon held his chin and drew on the paper, and suddenly thought that one day, the woman he loved would sit next to him and practice rap like now. While drawing for yourself, what a beautiful picture it must be.
But it's still very slim.
With a sigh, he went back to work.
At noon, Kim Do-joon and Epikhigh and his party came to the barbecue restaurant and had a good meal.
Kim Do-joon said while eating.
"Eat a little more, to make up for my lost youth, writing songs is too hard, the cost is too low, next time I have to improve a little!"
This one is telling the truth, because the Epikhigh group was almost discovered by Tiger, so the relationship has always been close.
So this time Kim Do-joon helped them write songs, and they almost didn't receive much money, only symbolic royalties, and they were still afraid that it would be ugly to say, and it was impossible for the composer not to charge a penny, and he would help you write songs, right?
In addition, Eikhigh is a small brokerage company, and the total number of staff in the entire company is no more than 5 people, including the front desk receptionist and boss, there are only 5 people, how much strength can be used to buy songs?
Therefore, the songs of the epikhigh group are basically written by themselves, and they rarely invite songs from other singers, or ask others to help write songs.
You must know that the price of goods is getting higher and higher, and the price code of composers is also increasing, in the past, it may be OK for 10 million songs, but now it may be more than 5 times or 10 times.
So Kim Do-jun kept eating barbecue, he must make up for his losses, wrapped the pork belly, stuffed it into his mouth vigorously, and swallowed one before he finished eating, and his mouth was full of oil.
He didn't have that many ideas, he just ate it back.
After a full meal and returning to the recording studio, Kim Do-jun grabbed the sofa for the first time, lay on it and touched his stomach and said.
"It's so filling! Brother tablo, when will you eat barbecue next time and call me! ”
Don't say it, people are like this, when a person eats, even if the rich food is placed in front of him, he doesn't have much appetite, and he won't eat much.
But if you get together with friends or a few people for dinner, the food you order is wiped out.
Not to mention if you drink some soju, it's definitely not enough, you have to have fried chicken and beer to have a good time.
"Hey! Really! ”
Tablo looked at Kim Do-jun with a disgusted expression, this kid is too good to eat, and he ate a meal for three people.
I definitely can't call him next time, and if I eat like this a few more times, I guess I'll have to cry to death. It's too much of a loss, it was originally a matter of the company, what does it have to do with me, and I let myself pay for a meal.
Tablo muttered inwardly, indignant.
After a while. I heard the knock on the door, and I didn't have to guess, it must be jisun.
Kim Do-jun quickly stood up and managed his image, after all, he was still an artist. You can't let others come in and see you lying on the sofa, which is too damaging to your image.
In case someone asks, who is this person lying on the couch?
One said that it must be a member of LEESSANG, Kim Do-joon
Kim Do-jun got up, Han Sung-ho didn't know where he was running at this time, and when he was called to eat barbecue at noon, this guy was still sleeping.
How long have you been asleep, what did you do last night?
Just when Kim Do-joon's mind was guessing, Jisun opened the door and came in.
Tablo quickly stood up and introduced Jisun and Kim Do-joon.
"Come on. Do-joon, let me introduce it to you, Jisun, now a solo singer, very powerful, Jisun, this is Do-joon, a new member of Leessang, just joined, you two get to know each other! ”
With that, he turned around and left, returning to his seat.
"Hello. I'm Kim Do-joon, a member of LEESSANG! ”
"Hello, I'm Jisun!"
The two shook hands with each other, bowed slightly, and said hello.
"Brother tablo. Why did you call me over today, did you write any good songs? ”
Jisun walked up to Tablo's back, patted Tablo's shoulder, and said with a smile.
She has brown hair and is casually draped over her shoulders, although she is a girl. But it has the spirit of hiphop, generous, uninhibited, a bit like a boy's personality.
"I didn't write it, it's a song written for us by Daojun next to you, I just finished it today and asked us to come over and audition, how about listening to his rap?"
Tablo said bewildermently, speaking in a tone that was a bit like a bad guy kidnapping a child, as if he was seducing Jisun, come and listen to a new song!
"Look at your appearance, you know it's not bad, don't hide it, let it out and listen to it!"
Jisun glanced at Kim Do-joon, but he didn't expect it to be a song written by the boy next to him, he doesn't look very old, can he write it well?
Know that your previous members were older than you.
Tablo made an "OK" gesture to indicate that it was no problem and pressed the start button directly.
After listening to a song, Jisun immediately put away his contempt for Kim Do-joon, three or four minutes is neither long nor short, but it is enough to change a person's concept.
Don't despise Kim Do-joon because he looks young, you must know that there will always be a sky outside the world and someone outside the world.
Kim Do-joon also smiled and nodded slightly, he was not a fool, from the time Jisun came in, he met his eyes and then greeted Tablo, and the difference in intimacy was obvious.
Tablo is now known as a hiphop poet, not only because he writes lyrics like a poet with a beautiful glance, but also because of his talent.
And Kim Do-joon has not yet made his own fame, only by letting more people know about his existence, Kim Do-joon will not be despised by others.
"Okay, Jisun, don't be in a daze, this draft is for you, it's all lyrics, you heard the feat part just now, it's already set aside, let's practice it first."
After saying that, he handed the manuscript on the table to Jisun.
Today is a good opportunity, Kim Do-jun is also in the recording studio, it is better to strike while the iron is hot, hurry up and record a sample first, let Kim Do-jun take a look.
If there is a difference or something bad, change it on the spot, and if the recording effect is good, the song will be recorded today.
"Tablo, Dojun, I've changed the melody a little, and the chorus has nothing to do with me now, why don't I add some DJ sound effects to it?"
At that time, when Kim Do-joon was composing, he didn't take Tukutz's identity into account, so that the whole song, although it was all rap, was missing the Tukutz part.
As soon as he said it just now, Kim Do-jun immediately took off his baseball hat and nodded to apologize, this was his own mistake, sorry.
"It's okay! After all, I haven't cooperated, and you Leessang don't need DJs, it's okay, don't worry too much! ”
Tukutz seemed very kind, and he didn't get angry because of these things, and said with a smile, afraid that Kim Do-jun wouldn't believe that he wasn't angry, so he specially walked over and patted Kim Do-jun.
"I never thought that a newcomer could write such a song, you have surprised me so much, come on!"
For Tukutz, regardless of the rest, the entire Korean DJ field should be regarded as the top figure in the ranks, and he is also the senior of the underground band, and it is not easy to talk to Kim Do-jun like this.
You must know that the concept of seniors and seniors is deeply ingrained in Korean artists, but fortunately, Kim Do-joon came back from the United States, and the two of them are HipHop groups, so there are not so many stinky rules.
"Thank you, Brother Tukutz, I'll pay attention next time, I'm sorry this time!"
Kim Do-joon touched his nose, he was really sorry, he didn't mean it.
In this way, the four of them began to practice, and Kim Do-jun had nothing to do at this time, so he went out to buy coffee for them.
It's really funny, the composer buys coffee for the singer, and it's reversed.
However, the coffee money is paid by tablo, which is still worth comforting, at most it is just an errand.
From p.m. to 7 p.m., several people stayed in the studio, barely going out, all recording.
As long as the lyrics are familiar, the recording is not a big problem, the point is that you have to find the rhythm and feel of the recording, which is very difficult.
Because the song was not written by himself, but was created by Kim Do-joon, Kim Do-joon may be able to sing more easily because he knows what to pay attention to, what can be avoided, and what is more difficult.
For Epikhigh, this is something to be aware of, and it is impossible to be sloppy.
Four people stood outside the glass door, watching the tablo recording.
As soon as I remembered the sound of the music, it was stopped.
Jin waved outside, signaling to wait before singing.
It turned out that the microphone in the studio was not opened, and even if I sang, I couldn't receive sound outside.
Is this tense or deliberate?
Kim Do-joon tilted his head and looked at the tablo in the glass room. (To be continued.) )
