● Music experience
In the eyes of others, junior high school is a lonely little girl, but in fact, she is very quiet in the world of music. Like the feeling of listening to music; Also fell in love with singing. When you express yourself with your voice, your inner dreams and desires are released from your own voice. I still remember the first time I stood on the stage, closed my eyes and concentrated on singing, just as natural as at home. There is no tension, only a sense of security. From that day on, I knew that this stage would belong to me one day …
In high school, I joined the choir because I like singing. From then on, I began to learn more about singing skills and music theory, and because of the influence of western music, I became interested in foreign languages. The university chose to minor in the English Department of the University, and began to join music clubs and formed several orchestras. Since then, he began to participate in many inter-school music competitions, almost all of which are often works.
After being concerned by musicians, he also came into contact with the record circle. I keep in touch with one of the music producers, Mr. Chen Jianning. By chance, I met Mr. Chen who was preparing to organize a group. After a simple audition, I joined the train of F.I.R and started the arduous road of music.

● Music experience
I never thought I would fall in love with music. I was interested in Japanese comics in junior high school, but I was determined to become a professional cartoonist at that time. The illustrator (who won the first place in the national western painting ... has published two short cartoons himself &; Illustration) ... while I like painting, I gradually began to like Japanese Kaman soundtrack and Japanese pop music ... cartoon TV soundtrack from famous music groups at that time, such as T.R.F, Globe, Mr.children, Glay, X-Jp and so on. I began to plant the seeds of music madness in my heart. Although it is not entirely pro-Japan, it is a natural Japanese pop culture. ...
* Play notes with your left hand &; He entered high school with a paintbrush in his right hand and joined the guitar club with curiosity about music. Although both of them are artistic creations, auditory music seems to be more shocking than vision, so I gradually put my brush aside and resolutely declined the post of president of the Western Painting Society. Although I feel sorry for my tutor, I don't regret being buried in the world of music (the second year of high school began to sing folk songs, and the pressure of entering a higher school was great, and this singing was more than five years ...) The stage experience accumulated in three years of high school performance also has a great influence on future music creation. Although I haven't started writing a lot, many beautiful melodies have been lingering in my mind.
* Creation period &; The Magic of Tetsuya's Chamber During my three years in Fu Jen Catholic University, I was a repeat student, but in music, I was definitely an advanced placement student ... I accumulated nearly 65,438+000 songs a year. Although immature, I was still shocked at that time. My friend and I set up a music studio and started to semi-formally contact with the music industry ... except for class, eating and sleeping, almost everyone is doing music-related things. I remember the time when the whole Japanese pop music was monopolized by Tetsuya Koike ... (P.S. was moved by his spirit instead of Koike).
Good friends around me advised me to give up music more than once ... but I told them that I wouldn't give up unless I worked as hard as Tetsuya Koike ... I thought I was in high spirits when I said this (but some people thought I was crazy) ... At that time, japanese pop was not widely accepted in China ... Because of my childhood, I always seemed to like Japanese pop music better than western music ... (At that time, listening to Japanese albums seemed to be posted.
* Affinity Rock vs Long Tail Big In the spring of 2000, I accidentally found an album on the record, which changed me a lot ... at dawn. After listening to the whole album, I only have one feeling (how can there be such fantastic music), which completely calmed my mind and was washed again ... (It turns out that rock can also have beautiful melody lines! )
Producer and poet-Long Tail. These three words have been imprinted on my mind ... I heard his attitude towards life from his music ... which further inspired me to create my own music, just like many people have no music without the Beatles ... I opened a broader musical horizon.

● Music experience
* Germination Because my mother is a music teacher and a vocal music teacher, she was deeply influenced by classical music since she was a child. During my college years, I made many music hobbies and started my journey of music creation. He not only participated in the pop music competitions in his school, but also went to the universities in the province and the popular wooden boat folk song competition at that time. Often won numerous awards, today's online singers Wang Leehom and both are defeated. Because the competition insisted on beating the contestants with its own creation, it was favored by many record producers and started the future pop music career.
* Pop music works are famous for competitions. Before I graduated from college, I knew many famous producers in the record industry. After graduating from college and leaving the army, I joined the record company, starting as a small assistant in the production department. After four years, I climbed from assistant, executive producer and production planner to record producer, which should be said to be the fastest growing and thriving new generation producer in the industry. In the days when I became a producer, I worked harder than when I was in college, so I tailored songs for many famous singers and sold countless songs. Such as Jacky Cheung, Andy Lau, Xu Meijing and Xu Ruyun. Because of May's Blue Sky, their works are well-known and promoted to be the best love song creators, and they are also called "Niu Song" by senior producers in the circle.
After becoming a producer, combined with his own creation and exquisite and rigorous requirements in music production, he has produced best-selling songs for singers such as Rene Liu,, S.H.E,,,, and so on. In three years, this has been well received. However, after all, production is a human marriage, and there are still many ideals and ideas that cannot be brought into play. After thinking about it, I decided to stop all my work, dive for a while, spend my savings since I entered the business, build a recording studio, set up a production company, sign my own new people, and stop writing and making songs at the same time, and start taking a step for my musical ideal again.

Nowadays, the pop music market is full of novel and gorgeous words and packaging. Although it is full of N-generation creativity, it sometimes lacks in-depth exploration and reflection on connotation. F.I.R thinks that music should have deeper meaning and inspiration, and should have the care of joining the WTO, enter people's hearts and produce * * * songs. F.I.R strongly believes that music should not just be a popular package, but should convey the spirit of "carrying the Tao with music" through the flow of notes, melodies and words, reminding listeners that "hope" has always existed in troubled times, so that listeners can find that kind of inspiration and power in their own music.
Who's F.I.R
In 2004, a TV idol drama "Gambling Fish" created many amazing market phenomena. Gambling on Fish, with its super-high viewing record, has made a group of new generation artists with record-breaking dramas make a strong appearance, forming a market storm with strong discussion. In the record market, Betta's TV soundtrack is based on the high-quality planning concept, making full use of newcomers to create high sales, and it has topped the Billboard in Taiwan Province Province in one fell swoop, among which the theme song Lydia, which is widely loved by fans, is undoubtedly the biggest help.

In addition to winning the top search list of Chimo website, ringtone download 1, the ranking results of major radio stations are also very high. KTV's click rate is the second in the till list; At the same time, the discussion on the Internet has spread to high schools and colleges, and all kinds of situations are unprecedented in the pop music market in Taiwan Province Province. Everyone is asking: Who is Roosevelt?
The music of F.I.R finally started to sound under the strong expectation of the market and fans.
> > music > > F.I.R
In F.I.R.'s album of the same name, almost all ten songs were composed by F.I.R., and the whole album has a strong concept and complete concept expression. The whole album is clear-cut and full of tension from the marketability of melody, the richness of arrangement to the connotation of lyrics. The rock songs in the album are very eye-catching, which are expressed through different elements or arrangement forms. Fly away with me is full of vitality and gorgeous rock music style, and Lydia's lyric rock music style has classical and gorgeous baroque music style, showing the general style of F.I.R "Light" brings out a smooth and powerful modern rock atmosphere with punk rhythm; Revolution is based on the new metal style popular in western music, adding oriental music elements (guzheng and erhu), perfectly blending Chinese and western music and showing a new rock atmosphere; "Your Smile" is the most expressive single in the album, which combines the rock and dance rhythm with the unique sweet artistic conception of melody and lyrics.
The lyric songs in the F.I.R album also have a special flavor, and the lyric folk songs of "Song of a Wanderer" in the middle plate present a vast atmosphere; "Paradise in the Back" takes world music as its concept, sets sail from "Scottish bagpipes", brings out a broad vision of imagination, and then lays out this lyrical masterpiece with refined melody and touching feelings with piano and strings; Our Love is the most popular temperament love song in the album. "You make me want to fall in love" is out of the sad tone of general love songs. Based on the popular concept of Grand Song in Japan, the piano and strings bring out gorgeous jazz style, and the voice shows the switch between true and false sounds with perfect ups and downs. It is the most difficult song in the whole album and will surely become the most beautiful love song in 2004. "Tarot Card" adopts the unique reverse beat rhythm of reggae style in the Caribbean, which highlights the dramatic charm of the song itself and is full of exotic mystery with Fay's best casual singing.
From group organization to creation to record release, this is the beginning of F.I.R' s pursuit of dreams. In the current pop music environment, creating music is a hard road, and no one can predict the result, but as their song says:
In the new century, we should put aside the past.
For better or worse, put it down.
The road to dreams is not as simple as imagined.
I want to be braver.
fly away
No matter how difficult the future is.
I can still feel my heartbeat.
There's nothing I'm afraid of
In the music of F.I.R, we set out together, flew together, and searched together for the post-paradise that belongs to this generation.
