Chapter 187 Subversive Chinese style
It must be admitted that what He Xiaoyun knows very well is that Han Sheng is a singer who is good at surprising fans.

When he first participated in "Journey of Music and Joy", he maintained the rhythm of one song per episode on a show that logically only needs to output two or three songs a season, and the quality was absolutely above the standard.

Later, it developed all the way to the soundtrack of "Sword of Heaven", and last year's "Tomorrow's Son" did advanced operations for the contestants' works.

Those are all complete surprises and progress.

So much so that Han Sheng has not been out of the mountain for more than half a year, and everyone gradually thinks that Han Sheng should have used up the inventory he saved before his debut and the newly written inventory now, so he has to take it slowly.

So a while ago when the official announced that there would be a Gufeng title album, everyone was surprised.

Surprise followed surprise.

Many music critics are almost running around telling each other, celebrating Han Sheng's belated new album.But in fact, it is unavoidable that there is a bit of worry in my heart: as the public opinion is basically full of expectations for Han Sheng's new album, what if Han Sheng does not meet it?
Yes, Han Sheng released a lot of singles before.

It's fast enough to put together two albums.

But think about it, this is within two years, spread out, the level of one year, and it also includes the previous accumulation.

Therefore, the most famous and best songs of many singers are often not born when he became famous, but during his rising period, because there are still many things to squander at that time.

After squandering, uh, it's not easy to rise, can't we just say "successful and famous".

However, looking at the four words "Fireworks are easy to be cold" on the screen, music critics felt that the statement might be difficult to hold, and He Xiaoyun was deeply attracted as a fan:

Just listening to the title of this song, I feel full of Chinese style.
Let alone speak.

He Xiaoyun boasts that she has listened to all of Han Sheng's songs at least ten times, including the ones before her official debut, not to mention her favorite songs. It is not an exaggeration to say that she has listened to them hundreds of times.

But even so, when she heard the lyrics, she still felt a strong sense of amazement:

Gorgeous and desolate, classic and beautiful.

Even, it seems to have surpassed almost all the Chinese styles and similar styles of songs she had heard before.If it is less, it will be a little bit better, but if it is more, it will be a heaven and an earth.

"Futtuta has broken several layers and whose soul has been broken.

Pain goes straight to the mountain gate where a broken lamp has collapsed

Let me wait, history turns around

Waiting for the wine to be mellow and waiting for you to play a zither."

Even Zhang Duo, who usually only listens to songs, couldn't help opening his mouth and sighing silently: "Wow, why do I feel the sense of the story suddenly come out?"

He Xiaoyun nodded frantically, and replied silently: "I think so too!"

But it was obvious that what she was thinking in her mind was much more lamentable than what she was saying.

This is not a song that comes up enthusiastically, even a little slowly.

But slow, just leave enough time, and you can slowly appreciate the emotion in the lyrics while listening to the song.

"Especially the sentence 'If you wait for life and death by default, wait for the annual rings round after round', you can simply make up a poignant love story of waiting in your head."

Her mind was rapidly churning, imagining, and sighing: "It's absolutely impossible."

But Zhang Duo didn't think about it that much, or in other words, her imagination was still not that rich.

I can only continue to ask: "Is there any background information for this story?"

"Hey, I don't know either, maybe it's in the introduction of the single?"

"That's right!" Zhang Duo quickly took out her mobile phone and started searching:
To be honest, she rarely searches for information while listening to music.

First of all, I find it troublesome, why bother to search like this, and even if most of the current songs are piled up with a bunch of words that may not be so commonly used, you can still know what they are talking about after listening to them, and it is difficult to tell what kind of story they constitute.

Then there is something like listening to music, you have to experience it yourself.

You can't just read the introduction.

After all, if you limit yourself to the scope of a story set by the author from the beginning, you will lose a certain amount of room for imagination.Not to mention other reviews and such.

To borrow what an audience member said about the movie:

Don't care if you understand it or not, but after reading the movie reviews first, isn't it the same as chewing the bagasse that the movie critics chewed?

However, today is an exception.

Because just after listening to the first few lines, Zhang Duo doesn’t have as strong an imagination as Xiaoyun, but she doesn’t want to miss out on experiencing the story told by the lyrics along with the song, and she’s even more certain that the lyrics have already drawn her in, and there’s no need for more Imagine, it is already very beautiful.

"found it!"

After all, she is a popular singer, so she found it after a random search, and it really has a story background:

This is a fictitious story. The background is Luoyang City, the thousand-year-old ancient capital that collapsed after its prosperity and prosperity, as described in "Luoyang Jialan Ji" written by Yang Xuanzhi during the Northern Wei Dynasty.

After a royal general in Luoyang met a woman by chance, the two fell in love at first sight and made a private decision for life.

At this time, the general was conscripted by the imperial court to fight on the border. During the years of war and turmoil, Luoyang, the imperial capital, was reduced to ruins. Ancient temple, but she has already passed away.

People told the general that there was always a woman waiting for him here.

With emotion, the singing sound came from the earphones again, and the feeling became more lingering:

"The rain is pouring, and the old hometown is full of grass and trees.

I heard that you are always alone
Mottled city gate, entrenched with old tree roots

What echoes on the slate is, wait a little longer"

Zhang Duo and He Xiaoyun listened and sighed, they are bound to have a wonderful noon.At the same time, Lu Shaoshun, a professional music critic among a certain music worker in Shanghai, was completely paralyzed.

I'm numb.

It's not an exaggeration. After all, he didn't confiscate Han Sheng's money, and he didn't need to flatter him.

Even back to 10 minutes ago, he still had a completely different idea.

At that time, the sun was just right, and today's weather was very clear, so when Lu Shaoshun took the coffee handed over by his assistant, he couldn't help but joked: "The coffee smells good, it's because your precious coffee bag Grind it?"

"Then why not? Didn't I promise you?"

The assistant, in fact, wasn't exactly the kind to listen to him submissively, so he said helplessly: "When there are important events this year, I'll take it out to drink—anyway, I can't think of this year's music circle, what else will there be?" It’s more important than Han Sheng releasing an album.”

In the end, just in case of a slap in the face, he still added: "At most, it is at the same level as Han Sheng's album."

"That's right, Han Sheng finally released an album."

Lu Shaoshun also nodded and said: "Did you read the comments on the scarf, they all praised him. This album has not been released yet, and at most one song will be released today, so let's blow it up to the sky and the earth." of."

"It seems that all the music award ceremonies and the best album will be locked by him."

After hearing this, the assistant was obviously taken aback.

Um, isn't that the case?The quality of Han Sheng's works is indeed high for all to see. Even if he manipulates a little bit and integrates the songs released before into an album, he may really win the best album for two years.

He then said, "Isn't it?"

"It's logically so, so don't look at me like that. I'm just saying that everyone is praising Han Sheng all over the place. It's too stereotyped. I'll say the same thing, find a different perspective to look at his songs. "

Lu Shaoshun said, "It's this song, for example, is there anything wrong with his previous song?"

In short, it's one thing, bragging:

Similar to the advanced version of "Does it sound bad to me alone", used to attract heat.

"Aren't you afraid of being scolded? And I guess Han Sheng's songs have been released in albums, so he must be very confident in the first wave." The assistant understood it in seconds, and then laughed.

Lu Shaoshun waved his hand: "Hey, the criticism he made earlier was just to attract people to watch.

After a lot of people came to see it, I just turned around in the middle and started to praise his music.There are praises and criticisms, even if you scold me, you won't scold me too harshly.

This time around, it seems that I am very fair.”

It's just that all of this was completely broken in 10 minutes, and it was the kind that made him have no time to criticize.

"The rain is pouring, and the old hometown is full of grass and trees.

I heard that you are still guarding the lonely city
The sound of the shepherd's flute on the outskirts of the city falls in that wild village
Fate takes root, we"

Now, the assistant is listening to the song, and the expression on his face is: Fuck, you can feel the sense of the story just by listening to it, you can directly make a movie, right?

While Lu Shaoshun listened to the song, he didn't think about these things:
His mind was surging.

Because maybe in the ears of ordinary listeners, it’s just another nice song brought by Han Sheng, but only professionals can understand the power of it once they listen to it:

"What do you understand, this, is it okay?"

"Okay?" Lu Shaoshun sighed: "Then what kind of song do you think this song is?"

"Chinese style, needless to say." The assistant is very strange, these are all basic things, too obvious.

"Yes and no."

Lu Shaoshun even hesitated, not knowing how to speak: "The so-called Chinese style songs are usually composed by the traditional pentatonic scale "Gongshangjiao Zhengyu" corresponding to "do re mi so la", other " fa" and "si" are actually rare."

In other words, this matter is equivalent to a principle.

Similar to Chaoshan hot pot without butter, old BJ shabu-shabu has no pork, and Chinese style, basically there is no such two sounds.
But "Fireworks Are Cold" not only appeared.

also appeared in large numbers.

This is simply deviant behavior, but everyone's first impression is: this is Chinese style!
"." The assistant was a little stupid.

Comparing the Chinese style is also a style that the domestic music circle has explored for a long time, and it has a distinctive style and is also very popular.Therefore, there are also many people who want to add something else to the Chinese style and find a new way to shine.

The results of it?
The result is that these songs are all classified as "pop music with Chinese elements added", and they are not called Chinese style at all.

"Listening to youth ushering in laughter envy many people

The annals of history are too ruthless to be gentle and unwilling to write.
Fireworks are easy to get cold, and personnel are easy to separate

And you're asking, am I serious."

The singing continued softly, but the assistant could only murmur at this moment: "It seems that Han Sheng's operation directly broke the foundation."

"Break the ground? This belongs to quitting directly!"

Lu Shaoshun pointed to his ear, and motioned: "Listen carefully, have you been listening for a while, and haven't you noticed another even more outrageous behavior?"

More outrageous behavior?
"Just wait until I hear it."

The assistant immediately quieted down, and continued to listen to the singing in his ears: "Who is waiting for you after thousands of years of love?

And Qing Shi can't be true to Wei Shu Luoyang City
If you are following, past life

Follow the red dust, follow my wandering life"

The lyrics are extremely beautiful, follow the world of mortals, follow me wandering all my life. Oh no, the lyrics should not be the point, because the lyrics are written much better than many Chinese style songs, so it should be something else.

What is it, and what are the key elements of Chinese style.
Apart from the melody and lyrics, there are only musical instruments?

"Yes, instruments!"

Lu Shaoshun seemed to be overwhelmed with excitement, and said loudly: "The key point of Chinese style is to cultivate the feeling through Chinese musical instruments."

"As for the song "Fireworks Are Cold", there is not a single Chinese musical instrument!"

Yes, none of it.

The three main musical instruments: guitar, piano, and drums are all foreign, not Chinese.

If you want to talk about the guitar, everyone comes here to express coolness, but here it is used to express solemnity; when it comes to piano, it is generally played with elegant rhythms, and here it is used to express calmness.

Even the drum kit used to make the rhythm is not a typical Chinese style rhythm.

But all these disharmony and complete deviant, in the end they formed the most Chinese style tonality, the most Chinese style texture, and did not use any Chinese musical instruments.

What is this called?
This is called playing through it directly!
emmm, indeed, just kidding, the album of Yuanshikong Milk Tea is called "Cross-Era", and it really has the ambition to cross-generations - it is rare for a singer to be popular for ten years and maintain highs.

But for a certain milk tea, it’s not ten years, it’s more than ten years, and even if he releases an album, please hurry up and reach more than 20.
"And, and more!"

The more Lu Shaoshun talked, the more excited he became, and even sighed: "The chords here are also very unusual. For example, the word "de" in the sentence "Mottled City Gate" actually uses Bm7, which should not appear in this phrase. chord, and then transition to an E7 chord, which is a taboo for "Chinese style" style music composition, but, but"

However, it breaks all definitions.

Unreasonable.

A song that is "not Chinese at all", but no one dares to say that it is "not Chinese".

"The fate takes root, we

Fate takes root, we
Jialan Temple listens to the sound of rain and looks forward to eternity"

The song "Fireworks Get Cold" was released at 12 o'clock, and the music reviews from professional judges seemed to be more, faster, and more exciting than normal, but there was no real content at all.

Everything, it seems, is in full praise:

But why not boast?
If a song can maintain the good-sounding element, it will definitely be popular in the market for a while, no matter how vulgar it is.

But if the lyrics are very good and can bring more pictures to people, it will be appreciated by the industry.

But if it is this song, it not only satisfies the above two points, but also completely challenges the foundation of one thing.To give an inappropriate example: Everyone makes peaches, and Han Sheng also made a cell that looks like a peach, but under a microscope, the cell looks like an orange.

Looking again, the color inside is pink composed of colorful colors.

On another look, it smells like peaches, but it's actually another chemical ingredient.
In short, it is outrageous!

But despite all of this, it's impossible to say that this stuff isn't a peach, because it really is, even more peach than other peaches.

"It's amazing, this song is simply impossible to use a normal musical structure."

"Han Sheng, I think this song alone proves that he has fully understood the music, although I thought it was okay when I was in "The Hills."

"I understand why Han Sheng hasn't released an album for a long time, because once it is released, it will be Wang Zha."

So what more is there to say?
Music critics don't know how to explain Han Sheng's song, because they can't analyze it.

This song is destined to continue to be sung in three, five, ten, or even longer years.And these people can only do the same thing as ordinary music fans.

That is to leave a message under the scarf of "Han Sheng Studio":

"When will Han Sheng's new album be released?"

"When will Han Sheng's new album be released?"

"When will Han Sheng's new album be released?"
