Chapter 23 Let me eat a chicken leg first.(1/2)

"Ah! Senior, it's like this."

Fan Yi did not dare to neglect.

The person who can make Professor Chen Bowen say "abnormal" is definitely not an easy person.

"The company arranged for me to participate in a variety show competition, and I have already entered the semi-finals, but... I encountered some problems."

"The competition format of the semi-finals is to cooperate with guests, and the guest I drew... happens to be my old classmate Yujiao..."

Having said this, Fan Yi twitched the corner of his mouth and glanced at Tong Yujiao.

"Are you from the same company?"

Li Shaojie asked curiously.

"no."

Fan Yi shook his head.

"Simply because of bad luck..."

"Hmm? Isn't that a good thing?"

Li Shaojie was stunned.

"It's great to draw lots in a competition and draw old classmates. It's so familiar and cooperative."

"What kind of cooperation is there..."

Tong Yujiao also curled her lips.

“Our two areas of expertise collided somewhat!!”

"Um?"

"..."

Seeing that Li Shaojie didn't seem to understand, Fan Yi explained.

"I'm good at high notes, and Yujiao is also good at high notes..."

"If we cooperate like this, we will either hide one person's highlights and break our own arms, or we will fight with each other."

"Well, I probably understand."

Li Shaojie nodded.

A song, or a singing performance.

You could even say the whole music.

Layers are the most important point!

The form that develops over time is called musical form.

In classical music, this is how we distinguish categories such as rondo, waltz, capriccio, narrative poem, etc.

To describe it using the structure of popular music, it is the basic form of verse-chorus-verse-chorus.

The spatial form lies in the structural level.

It can be harmony or the overlapping of melodies.

This structure of time and space constitutes the texture of music.

As long as a person opens his mouth to sing, it can only be a single melody.

However, music has evolved, from the monophonic texture of "Gregorian Chant" at the beginning, to modern times, the development of harmony and polyphony, making the music richer in level.

Humming alone may not sound good, but with accompaniment, it sounds better.

If you add some harmonies, it will sound even better.

Precisely because of this, in a song, the relative treble, midrange, and bass areas should be fuller. Songs with a serious proportion of treble and bass will sound uncomfortable.

The span of the vocal range may not be too broad, but the contrast between levels must be achieved.

The chorus and duet between men and women is a typical example.

Due to congenital reasons, when singing duets, most of the time, the male voice is lower than the female voice, with the lower male voice setting off the higher female voice, and the higher female voice lighting up the lower male voice.

Both Fan Yi and Tong Yujiao are singers with very distinctive voices.

The characteristic is that they are all good at treble, and the treble is very penetrating and clear.

In this case, it is difficult to cooperate with each other at all. When singing in chorus and duet, it is like fighting.

The kind that beats you to death.

Especially these two high-pitched players with extremely strong penetrating power.

To sing a chorus is like knocking a dog's brains out.

"Well, I probably know what's going on."

Li Shaojie nodded.

"In your situation, if you want to sing a chorus, you can't take the usual path at all."

If the human voice lacks bass and you want to emphasize the penetrating treble, then you can only start with the music itself.

In this case, there is no other way but to rearrange the music and use bass instruments such as bass, tuba, cello, double bass and other bass instruments to make up for the lack of bass in the arrangement.

If the male and female voices are both very high-pitched, then the balance must be brought back from the instrument, otherwise it will be floaty.

Then the problem comes again.

There are even more problems with the re-arrangement of selected songs.

Do the two people’s voices match what the song wants to express?

If you re-arrange it with a larger proportion of bass...will it still fit the content of the original song?

If you are not careful, you will destroy the original song.

Just like the countless remakes, remixes, or cover and rearranged songs on the Internet, they are often complained by netizens.

This is actually a conflict between the arrangement's ideas and the music's own ideas. If the singer's own unique voice is added to the conflict, this conflict will only become more serious.

Therefore, if the combination of these two people wants to cooperate, the easiest way is...

Customize a song!!

A song dedicated to the unique voices of two people!

"There is no way, you two are so unique, other methods would be more difficult."

Li Shaojie nodded.

"Leave it to me, just be at ease!!"

"Haha! Thank you so much, senior."

Fan Yi felt relieved and smiled.

If it is really tailor-made, then this song is likely to become the mark of the two, and ordinary covers will be difficult to surpass, or even incomparable.

In the entertainment industry, uniqueness is the only memory point. An idol can be a persona, but a singer's persona is the music style.

Music itself exists to make people remember it.

"Then senior, what should we do next? Professor Chen said that we can just listen to you."

"Ah! Next step!"

Li Shaojie scratched his head.

"The next step is to go back and rest. I plan to go to the old man's house to eat braised chicken legs."

"?"

Fan Yi almost choked to death.

"But......."

Tong Yujiao also felt somewhat unreliable.

One moment you are talking about business, the next moment you are eating chicken legs?

Is this the leaping thinking of a talented player?!

"The key is if you can't force it now."

Looking at the two people in a daze, Li Shaojie felt helpless. He spread his hands and pointed at his brain.

"From time to time a melody will pop out of this gada, but the time is uncertain and I can't control it."

"You have to know that when there is no shit, you can't hold it in. At most, you can only make a fart."

"?"

Their expressions gradually became distorted.

Is this the brain circuit of a genius?
