Chapter Eighty-Six: The First Album

Early the next morning, Lin Mu couldn't wait to rush to Huayi Brothers, wanting to take a look at the company's songs urgently, and by the way, ask the specific time of the audition.

Fortunately, Sister Hua has already arrived at the company, and he took Lin Mu to Huayi's Huayi Brothers Music Company, not long ago, there was a Warring States Music Change.

Now there are not many people under it, only in the famous Yuquan in the mainland, there is still Huang Zheng, and now there is a forest tree. Although there are not many people in Huayi Brothers Music Company now, Lin Mu knows that in later generations, Huayi has established the "Tianwang Palace" and the "Tianhou Palace", and its contribution to the Chinese music scene cannot be ignored.

Sister Hua had already told the person in charge here that she would just bring Lin Mu over. They came to a conference room, where two people were already waiting.

"This is the famous music producer Zhao Hua, who is responsible for the production of all the albums of Yuquan. Next to him is the famous lyricist Yang Yang, who has a lot of works. Sister Hua introduced these people to Lin Mu one by one.

Lin Mu nodded, stepped forward and shook hands separately, and said, "The cooperation in the future will trouble the two teachers, I hope to take care of them and guide them more." ”

It can be seen that these two are not good at words, and Lin Mu didn't go too far. The two men first looked at the woods, then turned around and took out a stack of A4 papers, which were full of lyrics and songs, obviously selected songs.

Zhao Hua didn't hand these to Lin Mu, but let him sit down, and then asked, "What route are you going to take with this album?" Lyrical? Or what does it look like? Have you thought about it beforehand? An album isn't just a bunch of songs and it's done. ”

Lin Mu was a little surprised, in his opinion, the album was a collection of songs, no matter how many. As long as the quality of each song is good, the album can become popular.

Zhao Hua saw that Lin Mu didn't answer, and his heart was like a mirror, knowing that he definitely hadn't thought about it. A layman is a layman, he doesn't understand anything, and he wants to release an album. The current record market is mixed because of these people.

However, no matter how much he despised Lin Mu in his heart, he didn't show it, but said in a businesslike tone: "The album should consider the genre, and when collecting songs, it should be considered whether the genre is conflicting, but an album can't have only one genre, and it must try to diversify." ”

Lin Mu listened attentively, refusing to let go of anything. These are all things he has to learn, and the systematic training does not include these things, only how to improve his singing skills, so that the audience can listen attentively.

Zhao Hua looked at the meticulous forest and nodded secretly, although he didn't understand anything, he was willing to learn. He has also heard Lin Mu's two songs, to be honest, he doesn't think it's so good, but because Lin Mu's voice is good, it is a material that can be made.

"Let's analyze Jay Chou's album "Seven Miles of Fragrance" and see how his tracks are arranged. First up is "My Turf," which is full of action, starting with a classic, surprising, Hollywood movie-style opening, followed by a cheerful week-style rap. Then there is the title song of "Qili Xiang", which is very refreshing. "Excuses", a typical Zhou-style love song. There are other songs with a Chinese twist. Zhao Hua introduced the songs in Jay Chou's album like a few treasures.

Lin Mu nodded and said, "Do you set a tone first, then find some songs, and then change some different types and styles." ”

"It's very popular, but there's nothing wrong with saying that." Zhao Hua nodded, while Yang Yang looked at them expressionlessly and didn't say anything.

"So can my album have love songs as the theme for this time? And then interspersed with songs like friendship, struggle, and nostalgia. Lin Mu tried to ask.

"Love songs must be the main tune, do you see which person's album is not love love now?" Yang Yang, who had been listening to them, suddenly spoke.

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this for now, let's take a look at these songs, this album is going to use ten songs, perfect meaning, counting the 6 songs that Lin Mu has already posted, there are 4 more songs, and Lin Mu has now written two more songs, so we only need to find 2 more songs." Sister Hua came over and wanted to improve their work efficiency.

After hearing his words, all three pairs of eyes glanced at him, and then began to discuss it seriously.

"I think this song can be selected, you see how well the lyrics are written, and I have an idea to use these songs to connect a story, a process from realizing love to falling out of love, a few songs in each process, and then the whole MV is made into a small movie. Can you see if it's okay? If you don't make a sound, Yang Yang said an idea that has been pressing in his heart for a long time.

"Okay, that's a good idea!" Lin Mu and Zhao Hua both applauded.

It is said that three stinkers are better than one Zhuge Liang, and the three of them quickly came up with a plan after brainstorming. It's just that the two of them don't know what Lin Mu's latest song is.

Once you have an idea, it's much easier to pick songs. When he was hesitant, Lin Mu tried to sing it to see how it felt.

It took half a day to pick out 9 songs, and at each stage I took out a song as a backup just in case.

Sister Hua quietly left while the three of them were discussing, and he was not needed here. After all, he is not Lin Mu's full-time agent, he is already a middle-level leader, and this is all about helping Lin Mu's friendship.

Lin Mu looked at the selected songs, and felt a sense of joy in his heart, and his album finally had a frown. The efficiency of a large company is really not ordinary, but if you change to a small company, you may still be busy collecting songs. How can it be the same as now, there are a lot of songs for Lin Mu to choose slowly.

After carefully putting away these songs, Lin Mu said to the two of them: "Thank you two teachers, you have worked hard, and I will trouble you in the future production." ”

Walking out of the music company, Lin Mu opened his hands and made a gesture of embracing the world, regardless of the eyes of others, and then walked out quickly and disappeared into the sea of people.

decided on his own songs, and the two songs Lin Mu later selected were also more nostalgic and sad love songs.

It's more in line with the positioning of this album, and the rest is to record, while the popularity of Lin Mu is still rising, the recording of the album needs to be accelerated.
