When Su Siyu finished listening to "Against the Scales" again.
For a moment she was unsure how to describe this song.
Sounds good?
That's for sure.
Whether it was the rhythm, harmony, arrangement, or even the lyrics which was what she was most worried about.
In her opinion, this song has reached a level that is almost impeccable.
Although the overall quality is not as breathtaking as "Nocturne".
But it’s exactly as the song title “Reverse Scale” says.
From the first sight of it.
I have already caught a glimpse of a soul roaring with all its might inside the mosquito larvae.
But the above is not what surprised Su Siyu the most.
What Su Siyu didn't expect the most was that Lu Chen could match such a fierce melody with such inspiring lyrics! The strong contrast made the whole song full of amazing talent! If "Nocturne" is to sing sadness to the extreme.
The strong contrast brought by the song "Reverse Scale" not only makes people stunned, but also triggers strong resonance! This is a work of true genius!
Su Siyu took a deep breath and murmured for a moment: "It turns out that rap can also express attitudes without using any swear words, don't you think so, Sister Qiu?"
Shen Mengqiu also stared at the lyrics on her phone, and nodded hesitantly: "Yes, the lyrics of this song are really... powerless. I mean, as artists, we are too good at beating this guy!
The songs I write are not only hard to sing, but they are also hard to write! I can’t stand it!”
The two looked at each other.
A question popped up in my mind at the same time.
This is the first song.
What should the following song be like?
Thirteen songs could definitely make up an album! So, will this be a "hit song"?
"Isn't the tone too high, Siyu?!"
If you stand in the audience's perspective.
Everyone wants to hear the next song to be better than this one.
But it seems that Lu Chen doesn’t think so.
Be the first to speak and strike first! ?
Well, it was done!
At least this song "Against the Scales" has enough strength to respond to all the recent controversies of those jumping clowns.
As soon as he opened his mouth, he was giving a ruthless blow to all those who doubted him! Su Siyu did not comment upon hearing this.
Sit in the chair and continue to remain calm and restrained.
Then he picked up the headphones and listened to Lu Chen's voice again.
While listening, I waited for the second song to come.
Now, there are 24 minutes and 23 seconds left until the second song.
…
Zhang Xiansheng’s live broadcast room.
When "Inverse Scale" is looped three times.
Zhang Xiansheng reluctantly pressed the pause button.
He looked at the associate professor at the Central Conservatory of Music who was on the microphone next to him, Wang Min, who was actually his mentor.
Just now when it was playing in a loop.
Wang Min took a lot of notes. He is a typical academic.
"Professor Wang, how about you tell us about this song?"
Wang Min is the protagonist of today’s live broadcast room!
A real big shot invited by Zhang Xiansheng!
Wang Min nodded: "To be honest, I was quite shocked. I really didn't expect that Lu Chen's first song would express his attitude so clearly.
It’s not just a simple response to doubts. The key is that as a non-rapper, he actually wrote a song that really made me feel that this is the kind of Chinese rap that I want.”
“It’s like a language major suddenly explained the Goldbach conjecture!”
"Yes! Xiansheng's metaphor is very appropriate! It really feels like that!"
…
Comment area: [Hahaha! Brother Zhang has been a professional supporting actor for thirty years! ]
【You know what, this metaphor is quite interesting. 】
【Welcome to the cross-dimensional attack from non-professional students! 】
…
"Then let me tell you a little bit about my feelings about this song. Can you tell me from a professional perspective why this song is so good?"
Wang Min said as he picked up his notes.
The live broadcast room has unknowingly reached over 80,000 people! It is the most popular in the same field in real time!
Wang Min: "Why is Lu Chen's song "Reverse Scale" so powerful and impressive?
In addition to lyrics and melody, there are two major aspects.
In fact, in terms of details, I think his use of musical instruments has maintained a consistently excellent level!
First of all, the arrangement of this song boldly combines rock and symphony to create a unique and shocking musical atmosphere.
In the prelude, the strong drum beats sound like thunder, laying the foundation for the passionate rhythm of the whole song.
It instantly grabs the audience's attention and makes people sway to the rhythm.
You can see this from Xiansheng's movements and expressions just now."
Zhang Xiansheng smiled awkwardly: "I'm sorry, I just can't help myself."
Wang Min: “In addition, the use of string music is also a highlight of the song.
A large number of classical string concertos add majestic momentum to the song.
Especially in the chorus, the melody of the strings echoes with Lu Chen's singing, further strengthening the theme and emotional expression of the song, making one feel like being in a fierce battle, full of power.
He even seemed to have added some electronic synthesizer instruments.
For example, the electronic synthesized violin solo in the ending section is very pleasant to listen to, bringing a certain sense of modernity and technology to the song, perfectly combining traditional and modern musical elements.
In terms of percussion instruments, the use of bass drum and snare drum is even more outstanding.
The bass drum provides deep and powerful rhythmic support, making the foundation of the entire music more solid; the snare drum is added at the appropriate time to enhance the rhythm changes and impact, further promoting the emotional development of the song.
Overall, the perfect combination of various instruments in this song brings us an auditory feast."
Wang Min sighed.
Wang Xiansheng immediately applauded.
As expected of a professor.
The amount of knowledge he revealed in this opening statement instantly killed him, a doctoral student.
Wang Xiansheng was not unable to say this.
But he couldn't summarize it so clearly in just three times.
“The last part is the lyrics.
The imagery is brilliantly created.
For example, the "reverse scale" itself symbolizes the untouchable bottom line and dignity hidden deep in one's heart.
"Muddy road" symbolizes the ups and downs of fate, etc.
The lyrics fully demonstrate the attitude that Lu Chen wants to express.
Combined with the previous release background of "Besieged on All Sides".
This song "Against the Scales" undoubtedly has the same effect.
In fact, during this period, including me, I have also noticed what some people say.
I just want to say.
In today's society.
We are all too eager to see someone become famous at a young age;
At the same time, I am too fond of it and am eager to give people the next conclusion.
This is obviously debatable.
Okay, let’s continue to focus on the song itself.
In short, the lyrics of this song are very easy to resonate with.
Including me.
I wonder which phrase you like? "
In the comment section, netizens immediately gave their favorite lyrics.
[That must be this sentence: Fight back with all your strength to make a sound, so that they will be quiet and unbelievable! ]
[I'm talking about self-esteem. It may look ridiculous, but at least it supports me and tries not to let me fall! I fucking love this sentence! ]
【Me too!】
【+1! 】
…
Off screen.
Out of the need for recognition.
I knew that there would definitely be comments about the anchors Dilireba and Yang Mi on the Internet.
Sure enough, as soon as I opened Douyin, I saw Zhang Xiansheng.
After listening to the professor's comments.
I don't think this song is getting better and better.
"No wonder, he was able to explain so many things in such a short time. It would be strange if it didn't sound good. Sister Mi, which line of the lyrics do you like?"
"It's okay... But the lyrics don't contain any curse words, and they're so powerful! Tsk tsk tsk, is this guy's lyric writing ability so abnormal?"
"Sister Mi, you really reminded me. I used to pay more attention to the melody and not much to the lyrics. But for this song, I feel the lyrics are better than the melody!"
"Yeah, you and I have the same idea!"
As they talked, they continued to listen to Professor Wang.
…
Wang Min looked at the comments section and nodded: "What everyone said is indeed the essence of the lyrics of this song!
Very powerful words.
So back to the rhyming technique.
In fact, the rhyme of the lyrics of this song is very exquisite and natural. It not only achieves the single rhyme and double rhyme, double rhyme within words, etc. of ordinary rap singers.
The rhythmic harmony is also achieved through the choice of words in the sentence, giving the lyrics a smooth rhythm when sung.
This is what Xiansheng has always been telling everyone.
Lu Chen has a very personal rap style: rapping with melody and breaks.
Let’s look at it now.
This style of segmenting words may really become a unique label for Lu Chen in the field of rap and fast songs.
To sum up, that’s it.
This is a good song with a deep theme, profound lyrics, and a certain philosophy and enlightenment.
To a certain extent, I think this song can provide some direction and ideas for domestic rap.
It's not just the arrangement, flow, or lyrics.
All of these have broken our originally rigid impression of rap during this period.
At least this song tells us in the most direct way that domestic rap does not need to promote violence, materialism, or use relatively vulgar words to express emotions.
As long as your level is high enough, you can also create very authentic American rap.
Even this violent musical style can produce such inspiring lyrics.
This is what I think is the biggest meaning of this song to me! What do you think? "
…
【Cool!!!】
[As expected of a professor, he hits the nail on the head and every word is brilliant! ]
[Yes, this is the part that really makes me go crazy in this song!!! There is not a single swear word in the whole song, but the emotions and attitude are full throughout! Lu Chen TNND is really a genius! ]
[I say this song can open a new chapter in Chinese rap! Do you agree? ! ]
[No problem! ]
【Absolutely support! 】
[This is a mess! ]
…
Looking at the commotion in the live broadcast room.
Some people in the circle came to Douyin to see the response to the new song.
They were all in the dark, smacking their lips in silence.
Even professors from the Central Conservatory of Music said so.
No matter what, the value is still there.
…
“Gah! Gah! Gah!”
Hagou, who was also in a diving state, felt a burning sensation on his face.
This song is good.
He admitted it! But it opened a new chapter for domestic rap.
This is pure nonsense.
It’s not like they haven’t written songs like this before.
They also have works with more attitude and more hardcore.
It’s just that he is not as famous as Lu Chen, so he didn’t cause any response.
These fans really know how to brag!
It's embarrassing.
But having said that.
This song really slaps the rappers in the face.
It's a bit too pure...
From the perspective of a rapper.
Ha Gou had to admit that this song was better than he expected.
But that’s all.
"Hey! If I could cover this song, maybe I could do it!"
Hagou suddenly felt that he was good again! How about trying this song? Back on the stage?
…
And just when a group of people were talking big.
In the live broadcast room, Wang Min suddenly coughed and changed the subject:
“The above is my praise for this song.
But next, I would like to talk about this song, and what I think are its shortcomings or regrets..."
Wang Min's attitude changed 180 degrees.
The more than 80,000 viewers in the live broadcast room were stunned on the spot.
What? Such a perfect song, but it still has flaws? There are still regrets?!
Don't worry, I won't write every song in great detail to waste your money.
The first song needs to create an atmosphere and pave the way for the rest.
So write in more detail.
The plot of Thirteen Songs will, without a doubt, elevate the protagonist to a higher dimension.
We are all old book lovers and we can tell this at a glance.
After thirteen songs, the subsequent plot will be linked one after another, and there is so much to write about.
So I had a hard time making a choice.
Actually, I really don’t like writing and releasing songs or singing.
This is my first time writing a song for entertainment.
It's a headache to see fans' reactions when listening to the songs.
I personally prefer to write interesting and bloody plots.
I used to write more about these, as well as daily life.
But there is no way, the protagonist has to pretend to be cool. If he doesn’t act cool, some things he writes will not be convincing.
Therefore, the plot of Thirteen Songs must be there.
I adjusted my mentality today and I feel much better. Thank you all for your concern. I am grateful! (End of this chapter)
