Xie’s music is divided into several stages

. The first stage of his debut - 2000. The music at this stage pays more attention to the market. Although the songs have excellent melodies, the songs in the album have a commercial flavor. Nicholas Tse's own style is obviously restricted by the publisher, and the genres are mostly popular. Rock and traditional Hong Kong-style love songs, I think the two Mandarin albums are relatively high-quality saliva songs. During this period, Xie himself composed the most. Every year, he released 5-15 self-composed works, but he has not started making an album yet. Producer

The second stage was from 01 to 2003, the peak period of Xie's music. During this period, Xie had a fairy-like production team, including xjapan guitarist, Shiina Ringo's drummer, and the 100-person string orchestra of the Philharmonic Orchestra. The ensemble, and most importantly, Wang Shuangjun, all participated in the recording of the album, and the style is no longer restricted to alternative rock. The four albums released in the past three years (Jade Butterfly Century Prophecy Me Second Life) all have explosive, complex and avant-garde The arrangement, but the melody is far less catchy than the previous albums. Some of the songs have a sense of familiarity with Radiohead Shiina Ringo and the like, integrating electronic music and orchestral music into rock. The albums of this period are just about the level of arrangement and production. I think it is one of the highest levels in China. The most important thing is that the producers of every album starting from the Jade Butterfly album in 2001-03 were Nicholas Tse and Wang Shuangjun. In an interview, Xie said that starting from the Jade Butterfly album, the music production was completely under his control. I have been fighting against the Emperor before

In the third stage, from 2004 to 2009, Xie's music began to decline and began to develop into film and television. In 2004, the album began to lose the complicated arrangements and arrangements at its peak. The music and harmonies have been simplified a lot, and it is obvious that I no longer put 100% of my energy into making music. Although there are still many songs with excellent melodies, the decline in arrangement has resulted in songs that are good to listen to but not as stunning as they were at their peak. In 2005 The One Inch Closer album is Nicholas Tse's last album with his own style (the producer is still himself). In the same year, the Mandarin album was released and sold well, but it did not have Nicholas Tse's style

Fourth Stage 13 Years - Now Xie has not released an album since 2009. He has occasionally released a few singles since 2013. During this period, he collaborated with Chen Zilong to create music. Chen Zilong’s arrangement level is average, so the works are not amazing either. They are better. The arrangement is a re-arrangement of Nicholas Rhapsody from The Voice (adapted by William Castle). Now Xie still maintains the music composition of releasing one or two singles every year, although his level has never returned due to the production team. It was at its peak between 2001 and 2003, but as a fan, I still hope to hear more music from Lao Xie.
