Chapter 87 Non-mainstream music, hall-level bands

PS: Please vote for recommendations! Please vote for recommendations!

In the recording room, the sound of the piano swept randomly.

Six or seven young people dressed in black jackets, big iron chains, and small vests with unique personalities held guitars and played solo to each other. They all seemed very happy and would write down the musical scores when they were having fun. It was very lively.

Wu Xiaozu looked at Qiu Litao, who was calm and composed in front of him, with a shocked expression. At this moment, Qiu Litao, who was not astonishing in appearance, had an unfathomable aura, and matched with his greasy shoulder-length hair, he had a unique style.

The scene suddenly changed in the next second.

"Brother Zu, do you want to join us - ROCK!"

Qiu Litao's middle and ring fingers of both hands are clasped together, thumb up, index finger and little finger, making a classic 521 shape, shaking constantly as if suffering from Parkinson's disease. At first glance, he is a rock drummer, and the rhythm he plays is: moving

The next time this is done, the next time you move, the next time you start with the right eight beats.

"Many people are very fond of the torture-style rock music you created before, such as "Garbage Dump" and "Advanced Animals"!" Qiu Litao praised with a grin.

Wu Xiaozu smiled slightly, maintaining the aura of Yuan Ting and Yue Zhi.

Zhi!

Taking a quick look at what he said, he is worthy of being a director. He is more enlightened than ordinary people! Thinking about it, he glanced at the people sitting on the chairs and eating at Hu Saihai... How to compare? Young people need to exercise!

"Brother Zu, your underground music is very popular in the Hong Kong underground music circle!" Qiu Litao added.

Underground music scene?

Staring at Qiu Litao, who was making ROCK gestures towards the recording studio with an excited look on his face, Wu Xiaozu's smile was frozen, he was so happy...it hurt!

Make B-level movies, sing and go to the underground music circle——

Wu Xiaozu wanted to kick Qiu Litao away, but unfortunately, Wu Xiaozu was so distracted that Qiu Litao led him astray.

If Wu Xiaozu had known that Qiu Litao's lover used terms such as: "Help a director who plays underground music with music!" I wonder if Wu Xiaozu would have killed this provocateur!

Looking at the young musicians holding guitars and playing wildly in the video studio, Wu Xiaozu felt that Luo Dayou, Huang Zhan, and Lu Guanting were actually more suitable for him——

What a genius wants to be a part of the underground music scene! Who wouldn’t want to be a part of the underground music scene if given the chance?

"Didn't I ask Yuan Zai to help me play the piano for the soundtrack of "The Butcher on a Rainy Night" last time? This time Yuan Zai took the initiative to invite the band to help with the composition. It must be no problem."

He pointed at a gentle boy wearing glasses in the recording room, and vowed, "Brother Zu, don't look at Yuan Zai and his band. They are not well-known in the rock circle, but in fact they are not weak. Paul, Hei Zai

Their guitars and yip's jazz drums are both very strong. They recently released a new album with a lot of different styles... That album is called... very nice!" After calling for a long time, Qiu Litao didn't call it out, so he could only vaguely mention it.

Wu Xiaozu knew this young man named Liu Zhiyuan, who looked gentle and elegant.

When the two pieces of "The Butcher on a Rainy Night" needed accompaniment, Qiu Litao asked friends from the band to help. Among them was Liu Zhiyuan.

The cool guitar solo in the middle of "Advanced Animals" was written by Liu Zhiyuan.

Looking around, in the video studio, a dark-faced boy with a middle-parted hairstyle is holding a guitar, showing off his piano skills with his hands like flowers. Opposite him, another long-faced man with wild shawl hair is hunched over.

, the hands seemed to be electrocuted, and the two of them were "playing the piano" back and forth.

Behind them, a pouty boy with permed and curly hair was playing drums for the two of them, and everyone else was laughing and singing along. The whole scene seemed extremely lively.

Seeing them having a great time, Wu Xiaozu brushed away the boredom brought about by "underground music" and began to appreciate their performance. The band could easily create excellent soundtracks and interludes while "playing".

This fast-paced "demo" is suitable for "The Birth of a Prefix".



"Hei Zai, Paul, YIP, Qiang Zai, Curly Hair, Aji!"

When Liu Zhiyuan saw Wu Xiaozu and Qiu Litao walking in, he put down his guitar with a smile and helped introduce him, "This is Brother Zu! Like us, he is in the underground music circle. "Advanced Animals" and "Garbage Dump" are his works..."

Well……

Wu Xiaozu glanced at Liu Zhiyuan and felt that his identity in the underground music circle had been solidified by these gangsters, and they stepped on him a few times in the end.

"Huang Jiaju." Huang Jiaju is really dark!

"Hi! My name is Huang Jiaqiang..."

"Huang Haozhong!" Da Changfa and Qiu Litao stood together, like two brothers. Unfortunately, he later abandoned Qiu Litao and changed to short hair. Only Qiu Litao was left standing in the wind and rain with his long hair...

Everyone nodded simply and clearly as a greeting.

Beyond band: Huang Jiaku, Huang Xiazhong, Huang Jiaqiang, Ye Shirong and Liu Zhiyuan. Yes, at the moment, beyond is an unknown member. The other two are from the High Beer Machine Band, which is considered a branch band of beyond.

Beyond is not yet well-known at the moment, and they have not really established themselves in the rock music circle. They will have to wait until next year to start creating pop rock music, and then they will really make their mark on the world.

In fact, the city of Hong Kong Island does not have much breeding ground for rock music. Otherwise, BEYOND would not have gone to RB to develop music. Even at their peak, they could not compare with the real top singers.

But this cannot deny that their music is classic, and they have indeed influenced a generation. It’s just that most of this generation choose to buy pirated cassettes to support it!

The "hardcover edition" costs 10-20 yuan a piece, and the "regular edition" costs 5-8 yuan a piece.

Wu Xiaozu bought hundreds of cassettes back then, thinking that he supported BEYOND.

In fact, piracy is not really supported...

Wu Xiaozu didn't wait for these "non-mainstream music circle musicians" to talk to him about music, so he pulled them to start talking about movies.

He directly chose to ignore the electric guitar handed over by Qiu Litao.

Wu Xiaozu knows his own level. With his folk guitar level in "Guitar Self-Study in Three Months", it is better not to show off in front of other people's rock guitar skills. It is easy to lose the label of "underground music circle".

This is as interesting as playing the drums and a rock drummer talking about jazz techniques in front of a jazz drummer... In later generations, a certain rock star got his face blackened at a music festival!

If your rock music is better than other people's jazz music, no one will sympathize with you even if you die.

Therefore, Wu Xiaozu talked about movies in an understated manner without blushing or beating in the heart. His own strengths are flying in the wind!



"When the character Huang Agou appeared in the first scene, I needed a BGM that was fast-paced but ridiculous."

Wu Xiaozu sat on the floor of the recording studio with everyone, spinning a drumstick in his hand, "The seven people who just appeared in my movie represent the seven emotions of happiness, anger, worry, sadness and fear. I think you can

Help each of them design a unique BGM..."

He casually threw the drumstick to Ye Shirong, looked around at everyone, and said with a smile, "Although talking about money is tacky, the music needs tackiness to make us breathe. I will pay you the price of the soundtrack according to the market price."

Several people looked at each other and showed a smile.

There are high-minded musicians and down-to-earth musicians who play music. Some people insist on the so-called purity, while some people can work hard towards their dreams. Which one is right or wrong?

BEYOND had just raised their own money to release a low-quality cassette tape of Chapter 1, and held a concert with more musicians than the real audience.

The reason why they guest starred in "The Story of a Pretty Girl" is not only to help Qiu Litao, a good friend, but also to make money for a living. If you don't find a way to make money while playing music, you may really starve to death!

As the saying goes, a breach of integrity is a small matter, but starving to death is a big deal!

Wu Xiaozu paid them to score music, so there was no reason to refuse!

BEYOND has become a totem for many people in later generations, and Wu Xiaozu also likes it very much. But this does not prevent him from now squeezing...bah...supporting their music dreams!

"500 yuan for an interlude! I'll choose 10 first!"

Wu Xiaozu took out 1,000 yuan and handed it to Liu Zhiyuan, showing a friendly smile, "I will come to check and accept it within three days. This thousand yuan will be used for your food expenses..."

The self-financed, inferior cassette "Goodbye Ideal" only cost tens of thousands of yuan from production to distribution. Is Wu Xiaozu's 5,000 yuan considered a huge sum of money?

The five members of the future rock band Beyond are paid the same as Wu Jinyu. It’s so cheap...

"The more people laugh at a dream, the more valuable it is to realize!"

Before leaving the house, Wu Xiaozu turned around and said to BEYOND, "I believe you can create good music. You can come to the editing room to watch "The Birth of a Prefix" at any time."

Huang Jiaju's eyes lit up.

I instantly felt like I was understood!

"Do you think Director Wu also makes movies to make music?"

Ye Shirong whispered, "What he said has a unique rock and roll spirit! The more a dream is ridiculed, the more valuable it is to realize it. It's great..."

A group of young people who were in the underground music circle and dreamed of climbing up the ladder no longer had any worries, and each one of them started to create a movie interlude with great enthusiasm!

If you have money, spend it freely!
