As the program continues.

And nowadays, this program is the most popular program in the world.

There are discussions about this show everywhere.

And several guest teachers have done enough publicity for the city of Harbin and this program during this period.

This is why there is such a high degree of discussion about this program on a global scale.

And each of the players who appeared on the stage was more eye-catching than the last.

Among the players who have appeared now, all those who have successfully advanced can almost instantly gain a large number of fans around the world.

Because each of these players is really amazing.

Whether it's their singing skills or their performance on stage.

This time around, the Voice of the World seems not to have amateur contestants perform on stage, but rather to be particularly powerful and unknown singers.

That's why this global good voice gives people such a big surprise.

This is why, nowadays, everyone discusses so much about this show.

It is because they felt the feeling of digging for gold in the sand while watching the program this time.

And these players are really shining.

Naturally, he can immediately gain a lot of fans around the world.

And the contestants who appeared on the stage also had different styles, some sang high notes, some sang bass, and some specialized in singing love songs.

It can be said that various different styles can be displayed on this program.

No matter what singing style you like, fans and viewers can find the type of singer they like on this show.

It is precisely because of this special comprehensiveness that this program has so many positive reviews around the world.

No matter which country it is in, the praise rate of this program is extremely high.

It can be said that this program has definitely become the most successful program ever held in China.

Almost every episode has received very high ratings around the world.

This current show has also successfully attracted the attention of many people, who want to join this show.

There are more and more brands that want to sponsor this program.

But now, it's already too late for cooperation.

Because the current program has also reached its last few episodes.

Of course, the end here does not mean that the show is about to end, but that the quota for promotion in the current show is almost exhausted.

After all, this is a PK show, so the number of people who can advance to this show is very limited.

Almost all of the guests have fixed promotion quotas.

Now, these quotas have almost been used up.

There are not many contestants left. At this time, the program has indeed come to the end of the promotion round.

After reaching the end of the promotion round, the current audience and guests have all set their sights higher.

Before, maybe in the first episode, every time a contestant appeared, the audience and guests would feel very amazing.

Because they do have a particularly good performance.

It can be said that there has never been such a high-level contestant in any talent show.

But after watching more, both the guests and the audience no longer have that special feeling of surprise.

Even if it is a very high level and extremely powerful player.

In the eyes of today's guests and the audience, it is just good.

There's no way around it, there are just too many great people appearing in this show.

Everyone is a master, so the audience's expectations naturally become higher.

It's just that in this latest episode of the show, even though the players and the audience have such high expectations, there is still one player who gave everyone a particularly amazing feeling.

Because this contestant is not an ordinary singer, he actually became a DJ on the stage.

And the song he performed was also his original song.

DJing is a profession, not a music style.

DJ, the full English name is DiscJockey, which can be translated as disc jockey.

DJ developed with the HIPHOP culture. With the development of DJ now, the meaning has been completely clear. DJ is just a profession, a professional term. The main job is playing discs. It is the abbreviation of DiscJockey, not a music style. Those who are mistakenly called

The music played by the DJ is actually electronic music.

The entire process of a DJ’s work can be called DJing.

DJing ≠ electronic music production.

Electronic music production is not accomplished by turntables and mixing consoles. DJing is when DJs use turntables and mixing consoles to seamlessly splice multiple different pieces of electronic music.

Then DJing means mixing songs or scratching them. Generally, DJs play in nightclubs, bars and other places. DJing refers to the entire working process of a DJ and is not the same as scratching.

Scratching means using your hands to stop or make the disc spin faster, quickly moving to other parts of the music.

Or you can control it with your hands to make the magnetic head slide back and forth on the disc to produce a special sound.

DJing is a bit more about playing CDs.

In fact, the job of a DJ is just to play discs. When he can both play discs and produce music, his profession should be DJ & music producer, which is what we often see as DJ/PRODUCER, which means both DJ and music producer.

Also a music producer.

The contestant here is a DJ and music producer.

The song he performed on the stage this time was also a song he produced.

But this type of song is obviously not something that humans can sing completely on stage.

It must be music produced by this kind of producer, plus electronic music and other effects, before it can be performed.

In fact, this contestant’s song is considered a special song.

This player's stage is also a very special stage.

But since he appears here, it means that several guest teachers recognize this type of musician and perform on the stage.

After all, this contestant produced this song.

But the singing part of the song, as well as the stage performance of the entire song, were all completed by this player.

Naturally, he also has the qualifications to perform on stage.

When he is making music, his identity is a music producer, and when he is DJing, his identity is a DJ.

Making music and DJing are also two different jobs.

DJs are divided into two schools: mixing and scratching. The main job of one group is to continuously mix and mix songs. People often refer to this group as MIX or mixing.

The main job of one group is scratching.

Many professionals will also call the live mixing of songs by DJs through a turntable mixer called MIX, which is actually an abbreviation and is different from the mixing of music production.

So to be more precise, it should be continuousmix, which is the full name.

The concept of jiege remix is ​​to mix two songs and play the music in an uninterrupted way so that people can continue dancing without being left in the cold. Speaking of it, jiege is a kind of remix, allowing each song to be connected in series.

It is better for the music to sound like one song as much as possible, so the overallity of the song must be paid attention to. The song must be truly mixed together to be a technical performance.

Starting from the "Saturday Night Fever" of Disco Fever in the 1970s, to the rock music of the 1980s, the soul blues of Motown, and the house whirlwind of the late 1980s, the American Hip-Hop black wave, and the Rave culture of the early 1990s

, until the end of the century, all kinds of electronic dance music changed endlessly, and DJ's work and skills were constantly innovating.

At this time, the "DJ" officially moved from behind the scenes to the front desk, responsible for selecting suitable music from various types of music to play for the guests.

After experiencing such a generational change, DJ culture not only has not declined, but has become more and more respected and favored by the world, so more and more people are involved in the DJ industry.

There is no other reason. Traditional record players can produce a scratch effect (Scratch) and are less likely to skip beats. You can clearly see how many scratches are left to play. If you want to keep repeating a certain sentence or beat in the lyrics (two record players must play the same song).

Songs, cue points, etc. are easy to recognize, which are all things that CD Player cannot do.

Anyone who has watched the World DJ Competition tape will know that there are contestants who jump on top of the record player and use "that place" instead of their hands to perform DJ skills.

Of course, the CD Player is not without its advantages. For example, when the speed is increased, the sound quality can be set to remain unchanged (traditional record players will become sharper when the speed is accelerated, and sometimes even male voices will become female voices).

The basic structure of electronic dance music - the concept of loop.

Almost all electronic dance music has a certain structure and rules. No matter how complex and changeable it is, there is a certain structure to follow.

If it is electronic dance music with drum sounds, you can follow the drum beats to understand the operation of the basic structure of electronic dance music.

Just like writing, a piece of music is an article, and the article is composed of words, sentences, and paragraphs; the same is true for electronic dance music: one beat is equal to one word, eight words (beats) are one sentence, four

A sentence is a paragraph (that is, 4x8=32 beats). We call such a paragraph a "loop".

Then the cycle repeats itself one after another.

OK, it is very easy to identify; but if it is a breakbeat or an interlude without drum beats, it is not so easy to identify, but it is still based on the basic pattern of every four eight beats as a paragraph.

If you have a basic understanding, it won't be so difficult to be a DJ.

BPM BPM is the abbreviation of "Beat Per Minute", which is the unit of beats per minute.

The simplest concept is that the drum makes a total of several sounds during a one-minute period, and the unit of this number is BPM.

For example, if a house dance song has a drum beat 124 times in one minute, then the song is 124 BPM.

As for the calculation method of BPM, you can use a watch or stopwatch to calculate it, and count the drum beats slowly manually; you can also use some BPM calculation machine or synthesizer, such as the Pioneer DJM-500 mixing console.

It has a built-in BPM metronome, and Casio also has a G\'mix series of watches with BPM calculation functions.

The search for memory points (cue points) is the basis of DJ skills. If a DJ wants to DJ on site and mix songs, he must mark the memory points through software and connect at this point.

There is no DJ who does not look for memory points before mixing, unless it is a DJ who does not record well, then that is another matter.

Pitch literally means the control of pitch, but in fact the change in pitch is caused by the change in the rotation speed of the record player.

When the DJ is beating the beat, he needs to control the speed of the upcoming track so that the music coming out of the left and right tracks are exactly the same in terms of beat speed and BPM. Only in this way can the two songs be seamlessly mixed together.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Pitch is a device on the record player that controls the rotation speed of the record player to adjust the BPM of the song.

The sound attenuation control slider on Mixer; that is, a slider that can be moved up and down or left and right according to the track.

There is a scale display next to this slider, which indicates the volume played when the position is moved. The DJ uses the fader to control the volume of the left track or the right track.

As for crossfader, it controls the volume of all audio tracks (channels) at once.

The performance of this player can be said to be very good.

At least the guests on the stage will feel more comfortable.

Because the music produced by this player is indeed quite powerful.

You must know that on this stage, except for Lin Xia, no one has performed as a DJ.

This player's stage is also particularly special among all the players.

Because even though he was on the stage, he also sang part of the song.

But the singing part is very small.

Most of the time, you can only see him busy with the special instruments on the stage, and the audience doesn't even know what he is busy with.

All I know is that the last song that came out really sounds very nice and very rhythmic.

As for Lin Xia, as well as several other guests, after listening to the entire song, they also knew that the DJ performing on the stage was definitely not a simple person.

This player has very good basic skills in production.

Moreover, although this contestant's singing on the stage was only a few lines, it was only part of the chorus.

But this contestant’s singing skills can also be called a professional singer.

Therefore, this player may be able to produce many hit electronic songs in the future.

Naturally, this player was successfully promoted.

After this player is promoted, the next players who will appear are basically traditional players and do not have any special styles.

However, this time with the advancement of this DJ player.

On the Internet, there seems to be a lot of doubts about this player's promotion and the judgment of several guests.
