012 Wives, I'm here~
For the first album, Xu Chen chose twelve songs.
Thereinto.
The most difficult to record is "Heaven and Earth Dragon Scales".
Wang Leehong's song composition has always been a strength, but the lyrics are slightly weaker, and the lyricist of "Heaven and Earth Dragon Scales" is Fang Wensan.
Fang Wensan's words are "imagery style", which is characterized by being good at "borrowing metaphors" and presenting a strong sense of picture.
The style of the whole piece is a mixture of POP style and R&B, and the instruments are traditional Chinese drums and flutes. Zither......
If you want to reproduce it perfectly, whether it is singing, musical instruments, or status, it is a hard bone.
The most difficult singing skill is "Loyal to the Country".
There is nothing to say about this song, it is difficult to cover it, but it is easy to learn and difficult to master, and only Tu Honggang can really sing the sad and majestic atmosphere and magnificent momentum in the lyrics.
There is also a song "Farewell My Concubine" in the album, which combines the singing voice of Peking Opera "Flower Face" on the basis of pop music, combining rigidity and softness, and moving and still......
As soon as this song came out, no one said: "Tu Honggang is a gentle love song, he knows how to sing a fart man~"
Xu Chen chose "Loyal to the Country" for three considerations.
1, the return of the pearl, the Chinese sons and daughters have an unprecedentedly strong sense of national honor, and the song "Loyal to the Country" just caters to the national enthusiasm that the Chinese sons and daughters desperately want to vent.
2, "Jing Zhong Serving the Country" is one of the top ten golden songs in 1999, but it is two years apart, similar in popular style, and the probability of continuing to become popular in 1997 is very high.
3, Xu Chen needs a song to establish his own character as a "patriotic singer", and it is best to become a role model for young singers in the mainland, which is only good for his development, not harmful, if he can appear on the Spring Festival Gala, it will be great.
The possibility is very high, after all, it is the return of Mingzhu, and these songs are too "just in time".
It's just that.
Tu Honggang's version of "Serving the Country with Loyalty" is sung so well, singing a sad and desolate old general who is crisscrossing the battlefield and has unpaid ambitions.
Xu Chen did not consider continuing Tu Honggang's style.
If Tu Honggang is the "Yue Fei" of the Song Dynasty.
So.
Xu Chen was the Huo Qu of the Han Dynasty, fierce, and righteous, singing the "Jin Ge Iron Horse" of a big country and a young general.
Ultimately.
Xu Chen's first song decided to record "Jade Belt Bridge".
"Recording songs" is to clear the BOSS, "Jade Belt Bridge" has the lowest difficulty, and folk songs do not need singing skills.
And.
The guitar, horse-head piano, and drum are just "finishing touches" in the melody, to put it bluntly, whether there are these two instruments or not, does not delay the song to express emotions.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
"No, Brother Zhang, is there a mistake, who is this Xu Chen, why is it all him." The freckled girl stared at the paper, suspecting that she had seen it wrong, and rubbed her eyes, yes.
His eyebrows sank, his face was unhappy, and he asked softly: "Brother Zhang, you know the rules, except for the musicians signed by us in the studio, you can't find people from outside." β
"Xiao Chen, this Xu Chen is not an outsider, it's him." Zhang Yatong pointed at Xu Chen and shrugged: "I know the rules in the studio, but the singers themselves can do it, so they won't trouble outsiders." β
"What, how is it possible, so much, he himself will do it all?"
Xiao Chen blurted out, staring at Xu Chen, in his sight, Xu Chen's white sweatshirt, the hat collar turned out, and the jeans were white, and he suddenly understood, where is it, it is poor.
was on official business, and there was no smile at all: "Brother Zhang, it's okay, the teacher will come in a while." β
β¦β¦β¦β¦
"Lao Zhang, why is this girl like this?" Huang Bo looked back, and the girl was sleeping on the counter, not to mention going to work, but thinking that she was on vacation.
"Xiao Chen is actually good, but he is snobbish, and Lao Xu has cut off his financial path." Zhang Yatong turned his head to look at Xu Chen, Xu Chen smiled faintly at the corner of his mouth, and it was difficult to joke: "The singer is looking for a recording studio to introduce musicians, and the studio takes a cut from it, and Lao Xu does it all alone, this is a penny and doesn't let others earn it." β
Xu Chen said with a smile: "I'm calling it riding on the bar, the province is the province, the flower." β
The recording studio in the depths of the flowers lives up to its name.
The long corridor is scattered with a large number of recording studios, the shed is very quiet, and there are many celebrity photos on the walls.
Xu Chen paid attention to it, the celebrity photos are all ranked according to status, and they all say that they are ranked in the circle, but he didn't expect that the small recording studio is a small Jianghu.
At the end of the hallway, push open the door.
One large and one small suite, with recording equipment on the outside and music equipment on the inside.
Guitar, drums, piano, horse-head piano......
The whole nine yards.
"Lao Xu, this recording studio is used by the princess alone, there is no time limit, you can record as long as you want." Zhang Yatong pushed the electric switch, the lights were bright, and the instrument exuded a metallic texture, which looked high-end.
Huang Bo and Grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden, he wanted to enter the recording studio all his life, but he didn't have the opportunity before.
looked around, touched the guitar, touched the piano, and asked: "Lao Zhang, do other recording studios have a time limit, and if you don't finish recording, you will rush away, and the store will bully customers!" β
"Why don't you hurry up, last time a little singer came in to record, and a big guy in the circle came to record halfway, and the little singer didn't dare to say a word, so he just gave up the recording studio." The corners of Zhang Yatong's mouth mocked: "The Qing Dynasty has been dead for a hundred years, and these people still think that they are royal nobles, Lao Xu, you said that the Chinese music scene has reached the point of dying if it remains unchanged, I think these royal nobles should have died a long time ago......"
Zhang Yatong cursed twice angrily and said: "Lao Xu, you don't have a company at present, if you want to get ahead, you have to keep improving the album, really don't consider hiring professionals?" β
Zhang Yatong was a little worried that Xu Chen would be frustrated, his first album failed, and he collapsed.
There are too many such people in Beiping City.
Huaxia is not currently called the entertainment circle, but the "literary circle", or "Beijing circle." β
Who are the people in the "Beijing Circle", the disciples of the big courtyard and the old men of the Manchu Qing Dynasty......
Lao Zhang was angry, Xu Chen could understand that he had drifted north for a few years, if it wasn't for Dou Wei, Zhang Yatong would have slept in the basement.
"Lao Zhang, I'll try it first, if the effect is not good, I'm hiring someone."
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Not for a while.
The teacher of the recording came, surnamed Tang, and introduced himself as a graduate of Nortel's recording department in 86.
This is the big guy.
Xu Chen was a little surprised, Xiao Chen at the front desk came in with him, this girl came in without saying a word, her buttocks were next to the stool, and she looked at Xu Chen.
Xu Chen smiled at the corner of his mouth and nodded, and the girl snorted in her nose and looked down at the instrument.
Xu Chen couldn't help laughing, although the girl was a snob, she was a "naΓ―ve and romantic" snob, although she hated it, she was not disgusting.
A few people discussed it.
The melody of "Jade Belt Bridge" is mainly guitar, horse-head violin, waist drum......
Teacher Tang looked at the music score, his eyes lit up, and he nodded and said: "This song is a bit interesting, last time Gao Xiaosong came to record "You at the Same Table", this music score has the same style as "You at the Same Table", but it is much more detailed. β
"It's all the same way, ballads."
Xu Chen walked into the recording studio.
He is no stranger to the recording studio, and when he returns to the studio, it is like going home.
"Musical instrument" is his sweetheart, his eldest wife is a guitar, and his second wife is a bass......
Ma Touqin is the third wife. Although Xu Chen rarely appreciates the three wives, he is familiar with the structure of the three wives, and he plays the head of the horse-head qin with one hand, and slaps the butt of the horse-head qin, and the horse-head qin emits an empty and melodious whimper~
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Recording instrument room.
Lao Tang was preparing for the preliminary work, and after a pause at hand, he quipped: "Zhang Yatong, you found this kid from you, thinking that you were visiting the Qinglou." β
"Lao Xu really doesn't change his true character as a hero!" Huang Bo hugged his arms.
Zhang Yatong couldn't help laughing: "Lao Xu is true temperament, no wonder he and the princess hit it off at first sight, the princess of this shed rarely lets other people in, let's look at the recording effect." β
Xiao Chen's cheeks were flushed, hooligan.
How can there be a musical instrument, like a woman's buttocks, and those who make music are really crazy.
