Title: If you're not drinkin' then you're not playin', if you are not drunk, you will not come back.
? Of the two new songs from Lu Han’s mini album Imagination, I prefer “Night Journey Say It” more. Probably because I often drive long distances, when I saw the introduction of this song, "Refreshing highway feel with zero burden", it fell into my heart before I heard it. Road music is songs that don’t make you feel tired while driving. They are suitable for “taking you on a ride”. They have tunes and timbres that make people feel comfortable and happy, and songs that make people feel refreshed but not “high”. Rhythm. There are still few specially created road music in China, but there are gradually more and more songs that can be classified into this category. Lu Han's "Night Journey Say It" will become a new favorite on the driving music list. It has currently replaced "You were the last high" as my favorite.
?The rhythm of "Night Journey Say It" is relatively fresh, the chorus and harmony are more prominent, and it sounds bright and relaxed. The synthesizer simulation is used skillfully and seasonally, and the rhythm is regular but not dull, with ups and downs. Apart from the lack of sexy female vocals and the lack of money drug bitch wine in the lyrics, this song has a West Coast style tune. When you first listen to "Night Journey Say It", you will definitely be amazed by Lu Han's tone, which is floating but not floating, as if you are in the scene, like being in the setting sun and cool night breeze in summertime. "Night Journey Say It" is very particular about the coordination of rhythm and melody. Most of the skills of the three parties of lyrics, music and singing are probably used in mediating the rhythm. Luhan, JING, Beau and A-Dee use their own Professionals work together to create an interesting song with a progressive rhythm.
With the rise of electronic music creation and the integration of various music genres, Contemporary Ramp; B covers a very wide range. "Night Journey Say It" still follows certain rhythm characteristics. It is Ramp; B, and it is also like a slow rock song. Both rhythm characteristics are moderate in speed and stable in frequency. In conjunction with the vocals and melody, the rhythm of this song gradually develops from nothing to strong, from weak to strong. The first section is accompanied by a pseudo-bell sample, starting directly with the human voice, and the rhythm relies on Lu Han's singing to find the beat accent; the second section adds water drop rhythm, and still uses Lu Han's singing to find the strong and weak beats; in the third section, the bass appears to drive the beat , the melody is strengthened; in the climax of the fourth section, harmony and finger-snap rhythm are added. The second loop of Extended is different on this basis. In addition to the small jumps in the rhythm and drum beats, uninterrupted harmony, and a tambourine section. I particularly like the elegant remix at the end of the two lines, "The feeling I want is to let the world go" and "There are no more secrets", which has a bit of an academic flavor. The thought in creating this song can be compared with "White City". Although the team is different, the taste is the same. This is the temperament of Lushi Music.
? Some people have commented that Lu Han’s pronunciation of flow is too clear. In singing this song, he has to deal with the stress and despondency relationship between syllables, the relationship between each syllable and the accompaniment, and breath control. On the other hand, Lu Han’s control over songs has reached a new level. Compared with rhythm music, writing lyrics for rhythm music is much more difficult. For a well-conceived song, the rhyme combination of the words, the syllables of the music, the rhythm and the singing must not be separated. Each of the lyrics of Lu Han's songs has its own highlights. This is the result of the lyricists, including Lu Han, carefully considering each syllable. I have never been strict about the balance between words and music, and words to convey meaning. No wonder Beau said that there was a lot of "blood sweat and tears" during the working process. He, A-Dee, JING and Lu Han must have had in-depth communication, and each of them gave up some of their own ideas and preferences to make this song sound. Just right, add one point to get more, subtract one point to get less.
Especially for these guys from the hometown of Funk, it must be very hard for them to endure a lot of Funk elements and not be able to squander it wantonly.
? Too many songs express the insignificance of individuals against the backdrop of the city. Lu Han’s song uses the modern city as his background. The lyrics are as broad as the style and tone of the music. When listening to his songs, the city's bright neon lights, bustling and noisy, and even silence and coldness are not irrelevant to me, but complement me. In "Love in a Fallen City", the fall of the city and the displacement of millions of people are used to complete a marriage. The winter in the city, the distance of the Pacific Ocean, and the alternation of day and night are all songs that come to fulfill him. The song "Night Journey Say It" reminds me of LA, the City of Angels. When the sunset over the Pacific Ocean dyes the city skyline orange, go to the Sunset Strip and meet the handsome blond guy waiting for a chance to perform, and the street singer who has recorded a few songs. , have a drink together, and another drink. If you're not drinkin' then you're not playin', if you are not drunk, you will not come back. When the night is quiet, drive all the way on the Pacific Coast Highway to enjoy the wind. "Once you start accelerating, don't look back."
? Imagination, Night Journey, a touch of fantasy-colored imagination. The city is a huge nest, with countless parasitic beasts coming and going like a tide, passing each other, both boring and indifferent. Countless people, countless times, long to escape the curse of bondage and go to any place with abundant sunshine and joyful land where music and singing are everywhere. In the end, I opened a can of lonely beer, went to the roof of a building, and listened to the whistling draft. Between life and being alive, there is a lack of courage and imagination. If you don't move, life will be a flower that blooms to full bloom. If your heart is moved, then blow the distant wind and go to where the wind comes.
