Two 30-year-old young people in Xi 'an formed a Shaanxi dialect rap band. In the team song "Qin Shihuang's Accent", we sang: Our name is Blackhead, which translates as "Blackhead". What is "Cremo"? If we can't answer it in eleven seconds, it will be "the sun will set".

Noun explanation: "Sa" should be "(sá)", and Shaanxi people call the head "sá", which is the painted face in Qin opera.

Dialect song: Answer the first question first/What do you mean by "Kerry rub"/If you can't answer it in eleven seconds, it will be "The sun will set".

A charming song has been quite popular on the Internet recently. Xi netizens happily gave it to friends all over the world, and it was highly sought after for a period of time. Rape Shaanxi culture with relaxed and humorous Shaanxi dialect sounds kind and fun. Two 30-year-old Xi boys playing rock and roll sang the life of "old Shaanxi" in this novel and different way, changed the image of "rustic" in Shaanxi dialect and carried forward the accent of "the ancestor of Qin Shihuang".

An "indigenous" band

Blackhead is the name of this band, and the Chinese translation is also mixed with the characteristics of Shaanxi dialect. It is called "Hessa" and pronounced twice. Shaanxi people call the head "Sa", and "Black Sa" is the "net" character in Shaanxi opera, that is, the painted face. However, the members of "Heisa" band are not scary-looking painted faces, but two quite gentle young people, namely "Night Knight" and "Hornet", who are called Cao Shi and Wang respectively in real life.

Cao Shi and Wang are the "aborigines" of Xi. They all study engineering. Now one is a teacher in a university in Xi 'an, and the other is a family sound engineer. They all like rock and roll very much and have been making music together for seven or eight years. In 2003, by chance, they wrote an online song "Practice to Death in Japan" in Shaanxi dialect, which became an unexpected hit. It's just that they processed the sound at that time, and some friends around them didn't recognize it.

Most people may think that people who play rock and roll are cynical, but Cao Shi and Wang Dazhi are not. They think that criticism is only a small part of expressing life with songs, and more is to show reality, reflection, love and praise. Since 2005, they have created more than ten songs sung in Shaanxi dialect, which have incorporated rich musical elements such as blues, opera, jazz, rock and roll, electronic music and so on. Cao Shi, who is also a guitarist, cooperated with keyboard player Wang to complete the production links of songwriting, arrangement and post-recording processing.

Change the appearance of "rustic"

Of course, Cao Shi and Wang were not the founders of Shaanxi dialect singing. In fact, Northwest Wind and The Journey to the West, which were popular many years ago, are all like this, but it also leaves us with an inertia feeling that Shaanxi dialect is very rustic. The creation of "Hazare" embodies the unique personality of "old Shaanxi", humor, boldness and even unknown gentleness, as well as the charming culture of Shaanxi that has changed the face of "rustic". Netizens commented that after listening to their works, you will find that Shaanxi dialect is so beautiful and charming that you can't get tired of listening to it, so that you can't help giving it to your friends immediately.

In the team song "Qin Shihuang's Accent" of the "Black Sa" band, the "Shaanxi Dialect Band 8 Test" was humorously tested; "Shaanxi Cuisine" praised dozens of tempting food and cultural snacks, which made people think. "I love the land of Sanqin, nurture me and give me endless fun" in "Broken City Play"; Get up before the chicken shows the pressure of urban life in a self-deprecating way, which is true and sharp; The happy life of a rambling high school student is also quite realistic, seemingly ridiculous, but in fact it directly hurts the disadvantages of exam-oriented education; Paranoid love song is a pure love song, "I want to hold your hand and walk with me in the village", which is gentle and melancholy. Someone listened and asked, is this sung by the "cold and stubborn" Shaanxi people?

Netizen meteor shower said that the display of language charm is not restricted by dialects. Shaanxi dialect is also beautiful when accompanied by the right music. This, "Hazare" proved to us.

A cultural form

Shaanxi dialect was the official language when Cao Shi and Wang spoke about Qin Shihuang. Think about what a magnificent feeling it is. Sun Lixin, a researcher and dialectologist at the Institute of Culture of Shaanxi Academy of Social Sciences, said that Shaanxi dialect has always been the basic dialect of Putonghua from the Han Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty. Due to the unique position of Shaanxi in the history of Zhou, Qin, Han and Tang Dynasties, the historical position of Shaanxi (Guanzhong) dialect was established, and its radiation area was extremely extensive, and Xinjiang, Gansu, Shanxi, Jinnan and other local dialects were greatly influenced by it. In recent years, academic circles have attached great importance to the study of Shaanxi dialect.

Sun Lixin believes that singing and spreading culture in dialects with the color of intangible cultural heritage is a cultural form worthy of recognition. The promotion of Putonghua in the country does not mean the elimination of dialects. Learning and using dialects represents cultural diversity. Mr. Yan Xuemin, a librarian of the Xi Literature and History Museum and an expert in drama and Shaanxi Opera, said that although he had never heard of the dialect singing of the "Black Sa" band, this form was very popular. "Heisa" is sought after on the Internet, which is proof.

Shaanxi dialect is not only vivid in real life, but also widely used in drama and sketch art in recent years. "Xi An Tiger Family" is a hit, and "My God" in "Legend of Wulin" is even more popular all over the country, and there are many famous artists who are good at dialects in Shaanxi. Cao Shi and Wang combined rock and roll with Shaanxi dialect this time, which is really interesting and meaningful. They are not satisfied. They are writing dialect songs with strong Shaanxi cultural characteristics. Yulang.com, China reporter Jing Junmin
