The legend of rebirth

Chapter 364 Punk's Reflection

The No.11 original song competition has reached the fifth song.

The biggest advantage of Shuanggui tonight is that the two songs are played in succession.So when they put two very different rock music on stage, the contrast is even more dramatic.

Different from the magical psychedelic rock, Double Ghost's second competition song is very direct and simple. Although it is pleasant to the ear, both the melody and the arrangement are much more straightforward.

The song is not long, about 3 minutes.

If this kind of rock music is taken out alone, it may make some audiences feel a little unsatisfactory.But this song is placed after psychedelic rock, as if after eating a big meal, I feel a little tired, and suddenly a porridge and side dishes are presented, the taste is light, and it is comfortable to eat.

So from Ye Luo's point of view, the two songs of Shuanggui tonight can be regarded as a set of combined punches, with completely different styles but complementary.

The response from the audience was also very good, with waves of applause.The music double ghosts' attainments in rock music made all the audience feel sincere admiration.

"Okay." Ding Shaoyang said with a smile, "The second rock song of Lingnan Music Shuangxia, that's it. Director Ye, I, an old teacher, want to test you again. What is the song of the two directors Yu just now?" Style rock?"

Ye Luo rolled his eyes, and the audience laughed again.

In fact, since the show started, Ye Luo hasn't talked much, especially in the last two episodes, when the two ghosts also found the feeling of being a show, his words seemed to be even less.

It's not that Ye Luo has nothing to say, but because he feels that he has five consecutive championships in hand, so he usually talks less, so as not to steal all the limelight.

It's a pity that his age is there, and he is still a student. Ding Shaoyang can only ask him this kind of question, Chen Tianhua or the two ghosts. Old Ding has long been blinded to death.

Therefore, Ye Luo can't do without performance: "The two directors Yu put this song after psychedelic rock, and they are ingenious, making the whole performance very complete.

Director Yu also introduced just now that psychedelic rock, popular in the 60s, is the pinnacle of rock music, or the development of commercial rock music.

The cultural background of psychedelic rock is the 'hippie' movement in the United States.The hippies at that time liked to sit in groups on the beach and parks to chat, play musical instruments, and sing. This kind of gathering was called a "carnival gathering".

When the crowds at the gathering grew, the rock bands began to perform, which was the fertile ground for the birth and growth of psychedelic rock.

But the gathering became more and more frenzied, and finally got out of control. During a performance of Rolling Time, a fan near the stage was murdered in the chaos.This incident led to the termination of the 'hippie' movement in the United States, and the psychedelic rock also fell into a slump.

Rock music in the 60s, represented by psychedelic rock, was gradually controlled by commercialization, and rock music gradually entered a sad situation.For commercial interests, bands and musicians increasingly lack the sensitivity and resistance that rock music should have.

The incident that happened at the band's performance scene also aroused the self-reflection and thinking of musicians and music fans at that time. This kind of reflection deeply affected the rock music of the 70s.

Then in the UK, because of the economic depression, the unemployment rate was very high, and another cultural movement was launched.

This is the 'punk' movement, rock music under the influence of the 'punk' movement, we call it punk rock.

This kind of rock music is a great subversion of the commercial rock music at that time, and it is also a return to the original rock music, advocating the rock triad.

The so-called triads refer to the chords composed of the simplest three tones, without modification at all, and express what they want to say in the most direct, powerful, and naked way. The songs themselves are often very short, Only two to three minutes.

After this kind of rock music spread to the United States, American fans who experienced the pain of the hippie movement and were tired of commercial rock music recognized this music form very much, so soon punk rock became popular in Europe and America.

The second song Director Yu dedicated to you just now is punk rock.Putting punk rock after psychedelic rock, the intention here is to follow the line of rock development history. "

It's rare for Ye Luo to say such a long sentence in one breath on this stage. After finishing speaking, the audience below responded with warm applause.

Ding Shaoyang nodded again and again, and said with a smile: "Director Ye, I think with your eloquence, you might as well stay in school to teach after graduation, and don't come out to make music and compete with us old guys for jobs."

Ye Luo smiled and said nothing.

Chen Tianhua said: "Director Ye was right just now, but since punk rock is mentioned, I think there is a point that can be extended a little bit.

Punk rock, which gave birth to a revolution in the history of rock music, actually leads to another clue in the development of rock music, that is, the so-called 'do-it-yourself' and 'independent' concepts.

As we all know, rock music is a music form that emphasizes "personality" exceptionally, but before punk rock, this "personality" was usually expressed through a kind of "spokesperson"--rock stars, and the commercialization wave in the 70s was more reinforces this.

Punk rock is not satisfied with this form of spokesperson.

What punk rock advocates is to abolish the monopoly of the stars' right to speak.Let all those who love music 'do it yourself' to create music and express themselves; let everyone really 'independently' engage in music.Instead of letting tradition, authority or big companies become the fetters of both music and self-development.

With the rise of punk rock, or the awakening of this kind of independent music thinking, the individualism and individual creation in rock music have entered a new height from here.And it laid the foundation for the success of the non-mainstream movement in the 90s -- 'non-mainstream' music became 'mainstream'.

Well, I think that the holding and popular broadcast of our original good songs column will bring positive significance to the Chinese music scene, which is equivalent to the significance of punk rock to rock music.

The focus of our domestic pop music production in the past few years was singers, not songs.I can also tell the truth that at that time the songs themselves could not be sold for money, and record companies mainly relied on singers to make money.

But now, with the rise of Director Ye, the situation is different. The soil for original music is becoming fertile, and fans' enthusiasm and loyalty to original music is increasing day by day.

Countless of us who love music, whether they are music lovers, music practitioners, or students of music colleges, after entering the new century, your best era is coming.

Since the beginning of the original good song mentor competition, everyone has seen that my grades are relatively poor.I do commercial music, and my poor grades mean that everyone's pursuit of musical personality has broken through the shackles of routine and templated commercial music.

For me, this is both comforting and a sense of crisis.

Listening to Director Yu's punk rock song today, I was deeply moved..."

When Chen Tianhua said this, he seemed to suddenly think of something, and said to the on-site director: "It seems that what I said is too long, right?"

What responded to Chen Tianhua was not the director's answer, but a burst of warm applause from the audience.

Ye Luo was also applauding, Chen Tianhua's words came out of his heart, and they carried a lot of weight.

After Ye Luo and Chen Tianhua finished their introduction and comments, 10 minutes passed.

Ding Shaoyang looked at the time and said: "Everyone, I'm sorry. Our mentors have more talk than each other today. You may not be able to catch up with dinner tonight. Mentors, let's hurry up."

Yu Zuo said: "I didn't expect that the graffiti works of our brothers would cause Director Chen to think so deeply, which made us flattered. Well, all the works of our brothers are on it tonight. Next, we should Is it Director Chen's second work?"

"That's right." Chen Tianhua nodded.

Chen Tianhua's second work is better than his first.

It is still in the category of pop rock, commercialized music teaching materials, the quality is extremely high, but after experiencing the psychedelic and punk duo of the two ghosts, Chen Tianhua obviously lost half in the realm of rock.

Although after the song ended, the audience's response was still very enthusiastic, but Chen Tianhua's face sank like water.

Ye Luo could tell that Chen Tianhua was reflecting.

Judging from the few songs that have ended tonight, the two ghosts showed their understanding of rock music and their superb rock skills, while Ding Shaoyang showed his firm and open rock attitude.

As for Chen Tianhua, he didn't show anything, he was just making commercial music as usual.Although the song is very beautiful, but in terms of realm, it has lost.

If Chen Tianhua didn't mention this kind of inferiority, Ye Luo and Ding Shaoyang wouldn't say it either. Maybe the audience just drifted away in a daze. In the end, it's not certain whether the results of the three will be good or bad.

But Chen Tianhua did not hide this point, but admitted it frankly.

This kind of courage to completely abandon his reputation as No.1 in the world for more than ten years, and publicly criticize him, made Ye Luo admire him very much.

But after thinking about it, Ye Luo was relieved again.It is precisely because of Chen Tianhua's character and tenacity that he was able to surpass Ding Shaoyang more than ten years ago and secure the No.1 throne in the world.

While Ye Luo was thinking about these issues, Ding Shaoyang's second work on the stage was almost finished.

For this song, Ding Shaoyang invited his rock ace, Zhen Zhi, after the first day of domestic rock.

The song she brought made Ye Luo feel very interesting.

This is a mountain rock song, a rock music form that combines the string sound in country music with the musical structure and lyric style of rhythm and blues music.Also very exciting.

Unknowingly, the seven competing songs on the stage were finished, and immediately, the last competing song of this show, which is also Ye Luo's second rock work in this program, will be on stage soon.
