When Hou Xian met Jay Chou ... At first glance, Hou Xian's music was really a bit like Jay Chou's style, but after careful study, you will find that there are still many differences between the two. Jay Chou promoted the new trend of pop music, and also made R&; B, the musical style of Hip-Hop and Rap is integrated, which is very important for China pop music. Hou Xian's music is more traditional and classical, with a very authentic China style. In terms of genre, he also combined western music with national music and gradually created his own unique strings. In Hou Xian's own words: "Music is like a species. My music originated from Jay, but this is only the beginning of evolution ... I am following an era, not a person. " Being good at learning from others is also the source of inspiration for Hou Xian's music creation. ◎ Antique, the first string, jumped from head to head, like the arrival of ten naughty children, which took a whole hundred days. In one hundred days, the spirit of PLAY music, which meets the East and the West, has gradually brewed and grown in the carving of time and the cheers of fans. Lyrics, arrangement, production, producer ....., every link is like a secret chef; The recording studio is Hou Xian's kitchen; I hope the last meal will be a delicious meal that will intoxicate my ears. I hope that Hou Xian's daily efforts will be combined into full marks in music. The album "Antique" has special significance and also represents the formation of Hou Xian's musical style. At the same time, it also conveys many brand-new string concepts. Let's learn from Hou Xian's self-introduction. Why is it named ancient style? Hou Xian said: "I hope my music is like a delicate antique carved by time, because only works of art like antiques can surpass fashion! Become something more tasteful and popular. " Hou Xian will use his accumulated time to precipitate and carve out pop music that everyone likes to collect. "Palace carving r &;; What kind of idea is "B"? Hou Xian said: Gongdiao singing belongs to the essence of his own culture, that is, a musical tendency in ancient rhythm, which is different from R &;; B There are many similarities between the majors commonly used in music styles. In addition, the drawl and transliteration of the ancient palace tune "Yiya" are different from those of western R&; The transliteration skills in B are also surprisingly identical. So the two can be very smoothly integrated. With the addition of Gongdiao, the tune of Blue and White has a stronger flavor, with local oriental color, without losing its popular charm. Palace Model and R&; The combination of B-type pop elements can make the nation transcend tradition, make fashion return to the nation, and deduce something with its own unique style. How to understand the word "postmodern"? Hou Xian said: Postmodernism is a feeling, and everyone has his own understanding. For me, it is one of the understandings of postmodern chords to use Gongdiao to be popular, to use classicality to reflect modernity and to use antiquity to describe the present. What are the deductive features of this album? Hou Xian said: according to the classification of songs, the tunes of the whole album are basically singing in Gongdiao style, which is more traditional and with a little R&; B's transliteration technique is the biggest reason why Chinese and western styles can be perfectly integrated in songs. It is also your greatest feature. How is the music structure of this album arranged? Hou Xian said: This album has various themes, such as ancient times, modern times, Renaissance, fantasy and realism. I have made many attempts, and the style is also Gongdiao R &;; Mainly based on B, it combines hip-hop, rap, pop, electronic and other musical techniques, hoping to bring you a rich musical experience. ◎ Interpreting the Legend of Chord Sound: The Combination of China's Classical Literature and Pop Music The Romance of the West Chamber quotes the famous novel The Romance of the West Chamber, and describes a poetic and picturesque youth love in its own way, with Gongdiao tunes and R &;; The seed of love,/kloc-a scholar who met a young lady in the West Chamber 0/2 years ago, and those who came back from the West Chamber after 12 years to dono. 1 are all empty. The emotional lines that embody the modern meaning, and this feeling of using the past as a metaphor for the present, may be Hou Xian's postmodern music style, easily accepted court-style pop melody and intoxicating artistic conception. Let the Romance of the West Chamber become the model of Hou Xian Palace R&; Representative works of B music. " Bridge, originally a plot fragment in the movie, adopts flashback structure. The ancient song Moonlight on the Spring River with the feeling of old records at the beginning has turned into a naughty R&. The walls, classrooms and first love of childhood have gradually emerged, and then the rhythm of R&B pop music sets off romantic childhood scenes one by one: the romantic encounter between grandparents, the old movie played by my father, the nagging of my mother, and a pipa in the middle. "Bridge" evokes a bridge buried in everyone's childhood for many years. Xiaobai Xiaobai was originally a cute little white dog in Crayon Shinchan, and later became everyone's favorite nickname. Cut to the chase, the voice of "Lala" brings out the pure and refined artistic conception of "Xiaobai". Simple major, simple rhythm and simple lyrics in small white tone will make you catchy with comfortable rhythm in less than half a minute. "Xiao Bai" expresses the unique simple state of mind of "Xiao Bai" in pure love with a tone almost like a child. Xiao Bai's image is exactly the same. In the arrangement, with the popular rhythm, rap and colorful guitar, the complicated arrangement is made into a simple feeling, which sounds simple, but it is not. Truancy is the first time in the music industry with truancy as its theme. At the beginning of Tang poetry recitation in a private school, I heard a bookworm beating the rhythm, and then the teacher's harsh reprimand came out. However, the rhythm of tapping rang again, and a solo of "Sheng" instrument was brought into the naughty hip-hop rhythm style and tapped freely. The classics are mixed with rebellion, which shows the true thoughts of new human beings. In a truant tone, he made a naughty "revision" of Tang poetry and Song poetry in his book. The word "truant" in the lyrics is actually an extremely bookish person who refuses to be bound by the feudal teaching system but pursues his own music. In ancient times, extremely bookish refers to people who specifically endorsed others and read books for others. The word "extremely bookish" breaks the embarrassing burden of "reading for others" under today's exam-oriented education system. It is a brave song to criticize the defects of modern education with an ancient background. In addition, the whole song has a strong Gongdiao color in singing and arrangement. Suddenly, a tap dance music with Scottish violin and applause added a special feeling of children's interest to the music. Popular words such as "only love Martians" and "Martians" spread from the Internet, and also became the classic narration in Stephen Chow's shaolin soccer, referring to a guy who knows nothing. In Love Only Martians, lovelorn young people prefer to find simple Martians rather than face the complicated love entanglements of the earth. It is a "new love song" full of youthful frivolous romantic fantasies. The combination of light rock melodies full of Scottish style and electronic style, coupled with unpretentious singing, shows the helplessness of young people after falling in love. In arrangement, the smooth concerto of violin and Jinghu brought fresh and refined special effects. Soft-paced rap highlights the psychological state of teenagers' troubles and is easy to arouse everyone's voices. The combination of classical tradition and alien science fiction is unforgettable. As it happens, the abbreviation of Tokyo love story is also called "East Love". If you listen carefully, you will know that this East Love is not another East Love. "Oriental Love" describes an "oriental love story", which describes a romantic and beautiful episode in which an ancient couple secretly flirted with poetry riddles and were finally bound by feudal ethics, and the young lady married someone else, and the two were heartbroken and separated. The palace at first was full of high and low notes. Is Goldbach's famous mathematical conjecture related to popular songs? In this song, the two are endowed with a wonderful connection. The feelings of two people plus one person are complicated and confused, even if the master guesses for a lifetime, there is no result. Goldbach conjecture made a classical R&; B's bold attempt. This song begins with a piece of18th century western classical piano music, followed by a strong R&; B rhythm, even joined the swing style at the climax, and made a new attempt. Piano and guitar concertos jumped out at the door and the end, accompanied by the singing of China traditional opera, which filled the whole song with the spark of bold collision between East and West. "To Anna" is a melodious Russian organ, which reminds people of "Night on the outskirts of Moscow", and then China flute weaves a beautiful exotic love. In the lyrics, two people live far apart and can only express their thoughts through letters. Beijing on one side and Moscow on the other. Different cultural backgrounds have the same yearning. The whole piece is wearing an organ and playing a flute, which constitutes an ancient or foreign love song and is the biggest highlight of To Anna. Kicking the Pavilion, from the mysterious opening to the outbreak of the jumping hip-hop rhythm, is accompanied by the drum singing of Beijing Opera, which conveys the decisive spirit and national integrity of newborn calves who are not afraid of tigers with dramatic plots. It belongs to the songs with brilliant auditory effects in the album, the climax part of the Hua Dan cavity harmony of the national quintessence Beijing Opera, and the combination of true and false sounds, and draws the sword at the beginning. By knocking at the door and making moves, the whole music plot is rendered full of tension. Generally speaking, the songs have a strong post-modern music atmosphere, which makes people curious. The imaginative lyrics convey the momentum of "awesome afterlife". More importantly, this year marks the 60th anniversary of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression's victory. It goes without saying whose pavilion Hou Xian is kicking. Nine times out of ten, the sixth sense intuition of lovers is accurate and strong when they are in love and when they break up. This is a love song about the gray mentality of parting, from the scene description of parting to the comparison of meeting and parting at the beginning of climax, with some lazy singing methods, R &;; B-style melody vividly shows the memories of lovelorn love and the pain between two people. From the beginning to the climax, "happy sadness" is the biggest highlight. References:
