Today, he is going to record a demo of a new song.
Of course, judging from the current equipment of Guofengtang, there are still some modern instruments that need to be supplemented. As an ancient style studio, the most important thing here is classical instruments.
Suona, guzheng, flute, and flute are all available here.
But there are relatively few modern musical instruments.
Chen Ming planned to ask Zhou Yike to make a list and purchase a batch of these missing musical instruments.
At this moment, in the recording room.
Everyone in Guofengtang was watching Chen Ming busy in a corner of the room.
"Brother Chen, are you planning to record a song?"
One of them asked excitedly.
Chen Ming nodded and said with a smile: "Today is just a demo of the song, not a formal recording. Our studio still lacks some instruments, so we can't officially record the song."
Hearing this, everyone became excited: "Brother Chen, do you need a chorus?"
This is Chen Ming’s new song!
Now every time Chen Ming releases a new song, it will cause a huge sensation in the music world. Even if he is given a chorus, it is an honor.
Chen Ming thought for a moment: "I don't need chorus, but I need a few people to play the instruments. Does anyone know the drums, piano and guitar?"
Originally, Chen Ming planned to record song demos using only guitar.
But seeing how active everyone is, Chen Ming can satisfy everyone's sense of participation.
just!
Drums, piano and guitar are the only three modern instruments in the studio.
As soon as he finished speaking,
Everyone raised their hands.
Chen Ming was not surprised at all. If you want to be a qualified artist, you definitely need to be able to play a lot of musical instruments, which is a bonus during the selection process.
Chen Ming randomly named three people, and the ones he named walked out happily.
The three of them sat down next to Chen Ming.
There is only one microphone in front of Chen Ming.
"You guys take a look at the score first, and we'll start recording for the first time in half an hour."
Half an hour later, Chen Ming asked again.
The three of them nodded in unison.
Chen Ming took a deep breath. Within half an hour, he opened his voice so that he could sing at his best.
"No problem, let's get started."
Because they were recording a song demo, the pressure on the three young artists was not particularly great.
First there was the sound of the piano.
The sound of the piano rose melodiously, echoing in the recording room. Immediately afterwards, there was the sound of the drums, accompanied by the sound of the piano, which made people intoxicated.
Judging from the prelude, this is a very typical Japanese warm-wind song.
Amidst the melodious melody, a hazy but real scene seemed to appear before my eyes. In the summer wind and under the morning sun, an older man walked out of the station.
This feeling is completely different from the summer déjà vu of "Daoxiang".
"Daoxiang" is more like a memory of summer life in the countryside when I was a child;
And this song "The Wind Rises" is a memory of the entire life.
Return at that time,
Things are different and people are different!
You have returned to your hometown again, and you are no longer the young and energetic young man.
◤Stop and go along the way
Follow the traces of youth drifting
The moment before stepping out of the station
I was a little hesitant◢
The young man who has been away for half his life is now back following the path of his memory.
The visual sense is really strong!
The moment Chen Ming spoke, everyone imagined such a scene.
It’s still a familiar station;
It’s still a familiar scenery.
Even the wind in my hometown is the same as in my memory.
The timidity of returning home outweighs the joy of returning home.
Maybe, people who are no longer young are worried, are the people from the past still there? Are the things from the past still there?
Chen Ming's voice is very soft, even softer than when he sings love songs, but it is this indifferent singing that makes people feel a sense of sadness that is pretending to be indifferent.
The singing continued slowly.
◤Can’t help but laugh at this cowardice of being close to home.
Still unavoidable
And the sky in Nagano
Still so warm
The wind blew once upon a time◢
The longer I stay away from my hometown, the more I want to go back.
When the day comes to go back, you will feel a little scared. You may not even be able to tell what you are afraid of, but when you step on the soil of your hometown, you have the urge to turn around and leave.
In my mind, memories from the past are flooding.
Suddenly, you understand what you are afraid of. You are afraid that this place will no longer be what you remember.
The former houses may have been demolished, the former streets may have been repaired, and the former streams may have dried up...
There are so many possibilities that make you feel timid and afraid of this place.
So, at a certain moment, you suddenly don’t want to go back.
You want to turn around and get on the train you came on, but you find that the train has started slowly and is traveling towards the unknown distance.
For a moment, you thought of the scene when you were leaving on the train.
You are on the train, full of longing for your future life and motivation to fight. But outside the train are your parents, or maybe your first love, waving and telling you to take care of yourself and come back soon.
But once you leave, half your life will be gone!
For a moment, everyone in the recording room had sore eyes.
After being away for half a life, when you come back, many people and many things will change.
◤I first knew this world once upon a time
Lingering in all kinds of ways
Looking at the horizon seems to be in front of my eyes
I am also willing to go through fire and water to do it again◢
When I was young, I was full of ambition and full of curiosity and thirst for knowledge about everything. I only had one idea in my heart, which was to travel across mountains and seas and cross mountains.
Behind you is the familiar hometown you grew up in, filled with a pleasant atmosphere.
In front of you is the distance you have always longed for.
Many people say that ideals are more than poetry and distance, but for most people, their ideals are simpler and more pure, only the distance.
◤Now walking through this world
Lingering in all kinds of ways
Over the years, different faces
Unprepared to break into your smile◢
On the way far away,
You will meet different people and different things.
Some people are nice to you and make you feel grateful; some people teach you that people's hearts are hard to guess and you need to learn how to be careful.
The more people you meet, the more you will think back to your hometown.
over there,
You don't need to quarrel with others or live in hardship every day.
An emotion that you thought you would never feel before appears in your heart, and you feel a little homesick.
I miss all the things over there!
If you are lucky, you will also remember a familiar face smiling at you and saying: "Remember to come back early."
It is at this moment that you really want to go back and see your hometown, see yourself when you were a child, and see the person you were when you were a child.
Suddenly, everyone in the recording room thought of the title of this song: "The Wind Rises".
At first glance, they didn't understand why they chose this song title.
yes!
When are the past events most easily recalled?
There is only one answer: only the wind can blow up the past and open up the memories in the memory chest.
because,
When the wind blows, you will think of stopping and taking a rest.
