Profile < Graduated from Shanghai Conservatory of Music and Paris Higher Normal Conservatory of Music, a new film music composer.

Zheng Weiying's music style is unique. He is good at combining electronics with environmental music and integrating it into classical music to create.

The composer is good at combining the elements of oriental sounds with western techniques, and the melody language is full of elegant and tactful beauty of oriental women. The style of music is classical and not archaic. The choice of timbre is broad and bold, and it covers a wide range. It is good at creating the artistic conception of songs with strong images through sound materials, with a strong sense of pictures, which brings fresh audition revolution to the audience.

The composer's works have an excellent sense of space. While traditional musical instruments are widely used, the electronic soundtrack involved makes the works more concrete. For example, songs such as Mohai, Wind and Fallen Leaves Temple fully express their love for the change of Feng Shui and nature. Piano and strings in the music lead to a gripping, low-key and charming theme, accompanied by chaotic and dreamy electronic sound and bold technique, which produces a unique poetry and tension.

Zheng Weiying's music is inseparable from literature. Music is still in a penetrating quiet temperament, gradually fluctuating between classicism and avant-garde, literature and music, image and abstraction, loss and hope, darkness and light. The cooperation with the poet Wu Boju hit it off, and the music works he created rendered the artistic conception of poetry accurately and deeply. For example, the melody and soundtrack of "Narcissus" create a quiet, elegant and psychedelic scene, which will be baked and dyed with the lyrics written in anthropomorphic ways, so that the image of "Narcissus" in the lyrics is completely integrated with the song environment, thus revealing pure but sad feelings.

Composers are deeply attached to Buddhism and often think about the ethereal traditional Buddhist culture. Even through bold and avant-garde practices, such as clockwork and chime, the abstract rational concept is embodied, thus leading the audience to explore their understanding of life and death and history.

Music is still gradually ups and downs in the penetrating quiet temperament, in the west and the east; Hell and Buddhism; Classical and avant-garde; Literature and music; Figurative and abstract; Loss and hope; The collision between darkness and light.

The music of the album "Mohai" is dominated by piano and stringed instruments, which exudes a classical atmosphere, but the occasional addition of environmental sound sources and even noise materials makes the music feel unfashionable and unique in aesthetic feeling.

album introduction

"Mohai" is an album that explains reincarnation with a psychedelic artistic conception. The music in the album is like a scene in a dream, and the dreams are smoothly connected with each other. Listening to this album is as mysterious as traveling through a dream at night.

The album is divided into two parts. The first part, from Narcissus to Fallen Leaves Temple, all have a blue color, which seems to depict the goodness of heaven, man and Asura among the six ways.

In the first three passages, Narcissus, as the opening, depicts a fresh and elegant artistic conception, tells a love story full of dreamland in a faint bitterness, and is calm and slightly sad. After walking through "Mohai", the music played by strings ended with disharmony in the second half and entered "Piano Rain". It's as if the dream has gone through the dark sea, and then it started to drizzle and some lights appeared. The dream has returned to the world, which reminds people of a sad love. The wind, which followed, began with a peaceful and peaceful atmosphere, but made the dream move towards restlessness. It was better to lead people on a mental journey full of fluctuations than to experience the grassland scenery all the way. In this kind of anxiety, we heard the peaceful bell, and here we came to the "Fallen Leaves Temple", which was clean and far-reaching, which was the feeling that this artistic conception gave us.

from then on, we experienced Six Roads. The song "Six Roads" is placed in the middle of eleven songs, which just explains the cycle between the upper and lower three roads, and it has to be said that it is a wonderful idea. The sound of wind-up in the music makes us feel that time is twisting, as if the whole mind and even the whole body are twisted, like passing through a thin seam, and then we begin to enter the second half of this night's dream.

In the lower part, from Dust Star to Marriage, most of the styles are strong and thick, with the feeling of ghosts and evil, all of which give people a strong "red". This depicts the scene among the three evils of "beast, evil ghost and hell".

After crossing the "The six great divisions in the wheel of karma", people's bodies and thoughts are shattered into dust in an instant, just like experiencing stardust fragments in the universe. This is the region that Dust Star led us into. After crossing this zone, we began to hear the footsteps of ghosts from far and near, and slowly came to a strange but noble dance. At this dance, a penetrating voice sounded, and the singing of "Sexy" revealed the feeling of depravity in enchanting charm. "The Copper Circle" is an abyss of depravity. In the sound full of steel, people feel the flame heat beating like lava. Finally, in the intense red, we walked out of the terrible hell and embarked on the road of Marriage with a sad color.

by chance, I was lucky enough to appreciate the painting by Mr. Ma Zelin, a famous French Chinese artist. Suddenly, I found that this painting happened to perfectly explain the concept of this Mohai, from pure to strong red and blue, with a dreamy reflection of sea color, which reflected the emotional conflict in the opposition like Tai Chi. I took the liberty to ask Mr. Ma Zelin to authorize us to use the painting as the cover on the spot. I didn't expect him to readily agree on the spot, and here we thank him again.

track introduction

1. "Narcissus" song: Zheng Weiying's lyrics: Wu Boju's singing: Zheng Weiying

The fresh air is permeated with light sweetness, and the afternoon sunshine throws the shadow of Banbang into the yard, and a narcissus stands quietly at the foot of the stone brick wall. On windless days, she is so quiet, and the dark green stems grow gradually, like the blood under a girl's tender skin. She watched the sunshine grow and gradually grew into a deja vu woman in my mind. The lyrics and songs are permeated with a fresh and elegant temperament, pure and beautiful, and the faint sadness contains beautiful expectations.

2. Mohai

The introduction of violin solo is full of singing, like an aria. After the prelude, groups of themes began to enter from bass to treble, which gradually enriched the music. However, the violin, which runs through from the first two tones to the vibrato afterwards, fluctuates and is uneasy like waves. Black night, black sea, the restless and inescapable heart, like a tight violin, floats feebly in despair like a boat.

3. "Piano Rain" Song: Zheng Weiying Ci: Li Fuhong Singing: Jacky Jiang

The patter of rain, the fuzzy windows, the hazy sky, the people in the wet street lamp house are looking through the glass windows, watching the gorgeous night lights and the people on the road in the street, with cool loneliness, familiar feeling and familiar melody

4. "Wind". The dreamy forest is full of sunshine in the darkness, which makes people feel mysterious. With the theme reappearing, we found our way back to the grassland. The music here is walking and seems to be traveling with the audience.

5.

The ringing chimes of "Fallen Leaves Temple" sounded, and the big yard full of rehmannia leaves was ethereal and clean. When I closed my eyes, I even seemed to vaguely hear the sound of chanting, which meant a lot of meditation. After the introduction, the prelude of the piano appears, and the descending harmony is like yellow leaves falling, falling and beautiful. After that, the theme of the violin finally appeared, with beautiful melody, such as a flowing stream, fresh and pure, washing away all the noise and lead.

6. Six Ways

The so-called six ways: Heaven, Ashura, Humanity, Animal, Hungry Ghost and Hell. Six paths of reincarnation, life and death, come and go. The mysterious, chaotic and slightly evil beginning seems to mean the bottom of the Six Roads. With the progress of music, the harsh sound of clockwork breaks the normal extension of time and space, which seems to change and more like reincarnation. Out of the nightmare, whether to light up? Or is it reincarnation to the dream of the night again and continue the dream-like journey? The song "Six Roads" is arranged at the end. Try to press the button of "Cycle Play" and feel the dream of reincarnation.

7. Dust and Stars

Flying out of the sky from the aurora, the broken piano sounds seem to take us into the vast universe. Hundreds of billions of stars have their own forms and their own light, and in extreme disorder, they have their own orbits and laws. They are messy like dust all over the sky, but they seem to be neat and uniform. In this unfamiliar dimension, big and small, static and flowing seem to have no absolute meaning. Don't try to grasp the absolute meaning inside, let your thoughts drift with the dust!

8.

After a long and lonely introduction, the bass entered a slow and sad tango. This is a tango dance with great character and rich plot. It reveals noble temperament in the elegant and soothing atmosphere of cello and wind music, and it is not difficult to remind people of the noble vampire aristocrat in medieval castles.

9. "Sexy" Song: Zheng Weiying Ci: Wu Boju Singing: Hai Rong Tian Tian

What is sexy? Transparent costume or naked body? I wander around in the colorful nights. Sexy women are night elves, and the most beautiful sexiness is often the blood permeating the wound. Sexy is the blurred eyes in alcohol, and sexy is the confused and restless heart

1. The Copper Circle

begins with psychedelic electronic music, with heavy and slightly dull percussion music, which almost runs through the whole song. This is a song with a clear sense of rhythm. Percussion is full of metal, which makes people live in a world of steel and metal. Red steel flowers and golden red copper splash and jump in this world, and together with psychedelic electronic music, they bring people into a metal fantasy world.

11. Getting Married

The feminine theme is played by the flute, which is full of talk and accompanied by the crisp and fragmentary guzheng, which makes the wonderful theme full of oriental feeling. With the addition of percussion instruments, especially cymbals, the background of music gradually changed, as if it were marching. The bride embroidered with a golden phoenix wedding dress, sedan chair, has a long line of flutes depicting the temperament and mood of the bride in the sedan chair, which is delicate, classical and happy
