Chapter 371 Preparations for the Spring Festival Gala! ~Yue(1/3)
Chapter 371 Preparations for the Spring Festival Gala! (Please subscribe~monthly ticket!)
They just went on a trip. After making some plans, they went out.
Since I didn’t know where to go, I just ran around and caught up with me wherever I could.
I went around in a big circle like this, walking through the streets and alleys everywhere I passed, looking for folk art.
Go to various museums to see the cultural relics, culture, and national characteristics of various places up close.
After returning home, Li Shaojie was bursting with inspiration.
The creation soon began.
The creative process is not slow at all.
In this creation, Li Shaojie wanted to try another new breakthrough.
The choice of the direction of the harmony is very clichéd and ridiculously clichéd.
The basics can no longer be basic.
4536.
Moreover, the melody is written entirely in pentatonic scale.
As for the orchestration, it is naturally folk music.
It belongs to the hard routine and bus template of the Chinese style "mass-produced garbage songs".
How simple is this idea?
It's like you want to equip your home with a computer.
Even people who don’t know much about computers know that if you want to play computer games, you need a host + monitor + mouse + keyboard.
Yes, this is a simple routine that even novices can use.
In other words, this kind of routine is the one that Li Shaojie, who pursues change, despises the most.
However, this time, Li Shaojie chose this routine.
The reason is simple.
Try to make extraordinary details on simple things, and use things that are commonly seen on the street in new ways!
Li Shaojie began to write the phrases of the verse.
To tell a story, in the phrase of the verse, it is necessary to repeat a "single note" to reduce the changes, increase the focus, and make the verse part lighter.
Like a bowl of calm water.
The chorus needs to be in strong contrast with the main song, but in order not to affect the progression of the emotion and not appear abrupt, this contrast must be based on the arrangement habits between sounds.
Unlike the repetition of single notes in the verse to deepen your memory, if you want the chorus to be exciting, you have to play with it a little more.
You can become more flexible in the jumps between sounds.
It was as if a drop of ink dropped into the calm water and then slowly fainted.
In this way, the overall structure will become very neat.
The simple idea, on the contrary, has the feeling of "heavy sword without edge, great skill but no workmanship".
Remove all the bells and whistles that will affect your listening experience!!
Although, Li Shaojie is a person who pursues skills.
But technique does not mean being fancy, nor does technique mean pursuing different forms.
Because one essence must be remembered.
Any technique must serve the artistic conception and content of the song.
Rather than pursuing skills for the sake of skills.
The truly whimsical technique is the icing on the cake, a touch of magnificence in the splendor.
Instead of thinking about where the mess is, let alone forcing it in without caring.
In music writing, foreshadowing, and contrast.
It is also very important.
The second layer that can add color to the music is the rhythm.
If you want to highlight the melodiousness of Chinese storytelling, the rhythm cannot be steady, but it must not be weird either.
Therefore, here are some tips for making a backhand in a simple and neat rhythm.
It starts with a weak beat and ends with a weak beat.
Tell the truth.
In Chinese-style music, if the main beat is up and down, and then paired with eighth notes + drums, my dear, it will be a bad song.
The rhythm is unchanging, monotonous, and conventional, and it's very easy to split the lyrics in an uncomfortable way.
Such as this rhythm.
"Ta-ta-ta! Ta-ta-ta! Ta-ta-ta-ta! Ta-ta-ta!"
Good guy, the whole board belongs to you.
"Shu Laibao" has a three-three-seven sentence pattern, and I also want to make it more "elegant" and "Chinese style" popular.
If you are not disgusted, who is?
There is nothing wrong with a red cotton-padded jacket and green long johns.
There is nothing wrong with wearing a suit and leather shoes.
But if you sit on the kang and still wear a suit and leather shoes and shiny leather shoes, you will more or less look like a high-quality human male.
And if you want to wear a red cotton jacket, green long johns, and cotton slippers in a serious business negotiation, you must be a little sick.

You have to pay attention to the occasion.
The same goes for the matching of rhythm and melody.
Rhythm is very important for changes in melody texture.
The next thing to pay attention to is the chords.
Although it is still a basic routine 4536251
But the routines and chords are not scary, and anyone who doesn’t change them will be embarrassed.
If a chord doesn't change and is used from beginning to end, if you don't feel disgusted, who would?
Therefore, in order to create emotional propulsion and contrast, the chords of the verse and chorus must change!!
This is the hard-core gap between the big guys and the weak.
It's like the college entrance examination essay questions are all the same, but every year you can get high-scoring essays, and you can also get low-scoring essays every year.
As for the details of the arrangement, the matching of instruments, the balance of loudness, and the embellishment of colors
It's even more complicated.
Every detail must be polished and polished.
Many times, some people will think that when comparing two songs, why is there such a big gap?
In fact, the difference may be just a few details.
The composition details are a little off, the chord details are a little off, the rhythm details are a little off, the orchestration is a little off, the loudness can be adjusted casually, and the colors are a little off.
The overall gap has naturally widened.
It's like playing an online game.
In every piece of equipment and every crafting method, you are only a little bit lower than the master.
It seems to be acceptable, and there's nothing wrong with it.
But when it comes to accumulated attributes, it's really a difference of hundreds of millions of points.
The same goes for composing music.
"After the rain, the sky is blue**!"
After finishing all the work, Li Shaojie typed three words in the file name of the work.
"Blue and White Porcelain"!
After Li Shaojie finished finishing the work, he began to make preparations.
The performance design of the entire program still needs to be rethought.
Take out your phone and open a list in your address book.
1M, a dance club like the Red Room.
