Origin:
In April p>21, Sodagreen was composed of lead singer Qingfeng, bassist Xinyi and the first guitarist, and drummer Xiaowei was the senior of Xinyi Zhengda Swimming Team. After listening to Qingfeng's demo, he decided to join. The first time I participated in the competition was the Golden Spine Award in May 21. Sodagreen won the best popularity award with the only composition song "Peep" that she practiced. Because of this competition, Sodagreen was tapped by the judges and participated in the recording of the compilation of the corner music "Young Country" at that time. The songs included were "Peep".
He changed guitarists for the third and fourth time in succession. In 22, Sodagreen fought Jin Xuan again and won four awards, namely "Champion of Orchestra Group", "Champion of Creative Group", "Best Lyrics" and "Best Composition". In March, 23, two guitarists, A Fu and Jia Kai, who were also classmates of Cheng Da University, joined Sodagreen, and with the participation of Gong, a keyboard player and viola player, the Sodagreen League members were officially finalized. In July of the same year, Sodagreen participated in the performance of ocean music festival "Heat Wave Rock", which was favored by producer Lin Yuzhe. In 24, he signed as an artist of Lin Yuzhe Music Club. So far, he has released three singles, held several large-scale concerts last year, and performed in cooperation with Chen Shanni and Chen Qizhen. At the same time, he also won the grand prize of the jury at the 24 Ocean Music Festival.
In September this year, the first album of the same name, Sodagreen, was released, which excited fans for a long time. Sodagreen's music is as refreshing and touching as a sudden sip of cold soda water on a hot summer day, which is why fans are eager and willing to wait. Good music doesn't need too many redundant words, just listen attentively and open your ears, and it will be clear naturally.
◎Pop music Sodagreen has been a military band for 8 years.
A group of people sat down with great fanfare. There are six members in Sodagreen, most of whom are newly graduated from university and just admitted to graduate school. Visiting them is more like a teacher asking questions in class. After throwing out a question, there will always be a short period of awkward silence without knowing who to answer, followed by pushing each other.
Emergence
Most of the members of Sodagreen are students from the National Chengchi University. Drummer Serena, bassist Xinyi and lead singer Qingfeng formed a group when they were in the middle school attached to it, and all of them were admitted to the National Chengchi University by coincidence. After several league members changes, the electric guitarist Ah Kai and guitarist Ah Fu joined in one after another, and finally the violinist A Gong who joined the group last year completed the current lineup. The reason why Sodagreen is called Sodagreen is that the strange name doesn't have any deep meaning. It's simply because the members think "soda" is very suitable to describe their music, while the lead singer Qingfeng likes green, so the name "Sodagreen" is angry.
Sodagreen, who won the grand prize of the jury in this year's Ocean Music Season, was lucky to be invited by the famous producer Lin Yuzhe on the spot, and had the opportunity to enter the record market and release a single record. "Lin Yuzhe went backstage to find us and handed me his business card." Qingfeng said: "I was scared silly on the spot and immediately ran to say to other members:' ㄟ! He is Lin Yuzhe!' I didn't expect their reaction to be:' Ah? Who is Lin Yuzhe?'
In fact, before Lin Yong-zhe, many discerning musicians had approached Sodagreen for the possibility of releasing films, but they all ended in vain. "Because some of them want to change us; Some just want to receive a certain feature in our music, and we can't accept it. " Xinyi said: "But Lin Yong-zhe accepts our advantages and disadvantages at the same time, and does not try to change us, but let our advantages be carried forward."
can't be classified
Sodagreen's music is hard to define. It's a bit like British rock, but not completely. This may be related to the six members' different enlightenment and tastes in music. Drummer Serena's father is a priest and grew up listening to church music. Ah Kai's music enlightenment was introduced to led zeppelin by a senior university student. A Gong began to learn piano at the age of 4, and was deeply influenced by classical music. After being in junior high school, Qingfeng received Mandarin pop records left by her sister and began to listen to Faye Wong's Sky. Xinyi likes Japanese rock music; Head Ah Fu went to the folk song restaurant to sing in high school, but when he said that his first album was Back Street Boys, he was immediately bombarded by the members: "Thanks for your words!" "You are so humiliated!" Under the impact of such diverse music preferences and styles, Sodagreen's music style can't be classified. Even if their musical tastes are different, everyone will abandon their prejudices when creating an arrangement, and only discuss: Is this thing good or not? Do you like each other?
Six people picked up musical instruments and arrayed themselves to take pictures in the bustling Ximending, which was indeed a very ostentatious act, causing many people to stop and watch. A male student timidly picked up the camera and asked me, "Can I take pictures?" I asked curiously, "Do you know who they are?" The male student said, "Of course, they are Sodagreen! I like their songs very much. "
This is Sodagreen's third CD, three new songs "Believe In Music"" I Don't Care "and" Spider Sky ",which were recorded on July 24th, 24. The Stage also two Music Video in it, so it can also be called AVCD.
Some people say that the live performance in Sodagreen is better than the recording studio. In fact, the live recording is a rather severe test. The recording studio can make mistakes again, but there is only one chance for the live performance. Of course, with modern recording technology, it is possible to repair the mistakes of the performance that day. However, in the post-production of this record, Sodagreen didn't have any repetition or repetition at all, and the producer just tried his best to capture the atmosphere of the live performance that day.
Because I believe in the magic of music and the charm of Sodagreen's live performance, I believe that music should not be faked. So, that's it, let forever become forever, a beautiful and vivid record. Sodagreen was very rock and roll that day, which was very different from the previous two singles "Audio-visual and Illusion in the Air" and "Flying Fish".
This new band, which is full of imagination and can't clearly define its genre, bravely challenges its own limits with a precocious attitude and skills that are rare among young bands in Taiwan Province, and has rocked with breathless explosive power, but still maintains its original gorgeous aesthetic feeling. This is Sodagreen, which will always bring unexpected surprises.
