Chapter 105

Remember the name is not on the market, and even the lyrics of Empire State of mind have not been decided. This is another feel it still song. Song Ya feels so happy for the first time.

After the sixth Apocalypse song, he was more excited.

First of all, the song is very short, only less than three minutes. Secondly, the style is very similar to his first single ifeelitcoming. The voice, singing method and even lyrics of the two original singers are similar. Song Ya believes that once this song is sung, no one will say that he is "changeable in style".

Moreover, it is not difficult to adapt. The lyrics mentioned the birth of the youngest daughter, as long as it was changed into the child of sister Connie or implied that her girlfriend Mila could.

The most difficult thing is that this song has the content of devoting to the cause of equal rights. It is very suitable for the current situation, and it is also perfectly in line with its own personal settings. It is worthy of the Apocalypse when listening to the speech of Reverend Ellison.

One night, he changed the lyrics and filled in the music. He rushed to the recording studio to look for delay. "I have a new idea. It also needs a new composite. Time is pressing. The sooner we finish it, the better."

"Another one? Wow, aplus, you're a genius... "

Delay took the score and played it roughly with the electronic organ. "Wait, wait, wait, it's not right..." He stopped in the middle of the play. How could the accompaniment be a bit like the Beatles‘ PleaseMr.Postman ’？

“WHAT？” Song Ya was stunned.

"Wait a minute, al. Get a Beatle from a PleaseMr.Postman Come on Cried delay.

Al borrowed the record from Da A. sure enough, the accompaniment of the two songs was similar, only the traditional instruments used by the Beatles, while song Ya used a lot of polyphony, but the composite part could not be reflected in Song Ya's cursory music score. So delay played again and again and found out the similarities between the two songs.

Tianqi hanging pit Laozi? Song Ya feels that he is now trapped. Fortunately, there are only two people in the recording room, namely, delay and al. If the song is heard again after the release of the song, it will be terrible to have the plagiarized pot on his back.

"It's OK. It's normal. You know, sometimes you heard a song when you were a child or accidentally, and his melody was Into your subconscious or dream, Freud's theory Well, I don't really know. Maybe he said that. Years later, when you wrote songs, you took it as your own idea. That happens from time to time, right? Al. " Delay was cunningly smoothing his boss's cheek.

"Yes." "And it's not the Beatles' original song, it's a cover song for us black people," Al said He took out another record, the marvelettes album, the title of the album PleaseMr.Postman From 1960, "big a asked me to bring it with me."

"Well, what shall I do? I need this song, and I've written all my words, just to catch up with this wave of equal rights. " Song Ya can only accept it, but he doesn't accept the setting of the Apocalypse plug-in meeting pit, so it's too difficult for the transgressor to do it.

"You're going to have a new polyphonic accompaniment, right?" Asked delay.

"Yes."

"That's simple. It can be regarded as sampling. Hip hop music sampling past songs is a common thing. It's no problem. We just need to get PleaseMr.Postman The copyright owner of the song agrees, or purchase the right to sample the music. " "It shouldn't be expensive. It's from the sixties, after all, and it's been covered many times."

"Well, let's buy it. We'll fix the copyright issue as soon as possible."

Song Yachang breathed a sigh of relief. He really avoided a big thunder. No, he thought of the Empire State of mind that had not yet been taken out. He quickly asked Dilai to help identify the score. It was really another pit. This song also sampled the love on two way street of the moments, a song from the 1970s.

"Buy it! Buy it! You have to buy the right to sample both songs Song Ya orders.

"Er..." Delay scratched his head. "A + record is running out of money." He handed over a purchase list, which was a list of equipment updates made by Andrew and Henry, who were going to work. The two latest 486 computers were equipped with Windows operating system, some MIDI software, and a lot of professional software and hardware related to audio processing, which could not be obtained for $30000 or 50000.

Song ya just remembered that Sony Columbia didn't settle the income of ifeelitcom. The last time a + copyright and investment management company lent a + record $200000, the company still didn't receive any money. After a few months, the money would burn out. In fact, it really cost more than 200000 yuan. If song Ya didn't use his cash income to offset his "propaganda expenses" to black DJs in several major cities.

"Then you can make an inquiry and fix the cost of sampling right and equipment investment. I will ask song a Sheng to make a new budget."

Song Ya's own liquidity is not much, "anyway, I will use the expected income of a + records on ifeelitcom to mortgage with the bank.""OK." Delay went to work, learned that one song copyright in MJ's ATV copyright library, the other in the hands of EMI.

Song Ya didn't want to have any trouble, let him go through the normal business process, a total of 150000 yuan, won the right to sample two songs.

Song a Sheng used part of the expected income of a + records on ifeelitcoming to lend $1 million to the first bank of New Jersey. This time, he was not affected by any legislators. He was just trying to lower the interest rate of his family. It seems that the small bank is not doing well. He attaches great importance to song ya, a high-quality customer with excellent collateral.

After relieving their worries, Andrew, Henry and Marotta also rented a house in Chicago and formally came to work on a + records. The software and hardware equipment were also purchased. They were the latest and best goods. They spent a total of $50000 to get new toys. Andrew and Henry couldn't wait to install and debug them.

Song Ya entered the familiar rhythm of going to school, recording songs and going home.

A few days later, the equipment was debugged.

"You see..." Andrew pointed to the screen. "I just need to adjust the track in this software..." He adjusted the mouse slightly, "and then The device connected to the computer emits a new tone, "that's it."

"Good." Dilai looked at Song Ya excitedly, "so you don't have to rely on musicians to record synthetic music. You can save a lot of money."

"Good, good, keep trying." Boss song encouraged his employees to say a few words, not to mention money, but to hire these two people and related equipment investment, the time cost saved is worth the money.

At this time Hayden came in, and feiji's business had been settled. He asked a colleague of William Morris in Los Angeles to buy her agent's contract, and then asked the other party to transfer her temporary agency in Chicago to himself.

With him came another woman, Fergie Dana, her sister, is also her guardian.

This young woman who had been in Hollywood and played some small roles was not smart enough in the negotiation. Song Ya felt that it was better to let feiji come by herself.

Last time, when feiji was chased by the A, she heard her name called out and ran into her body immediately. Then she caught the handle of the harassment and illegal imprisonment of big a and his younger brother. After finding out that big a really had nothing to do with herself, she decisively sent away the police officers and called her temporary agent in Chicago by the way. A set of operation is really flowing.

And in front of this silly white sweet I don't know why the big dye vat in Hollywood didn't make her smarter, but she didn't cheat. Hayden, the agent, would not help her. Song Yale was so.

"You know, I'm spending most of my time in New York, or all over the country, and the studios are empty."

"You see, I've invested a lot of money in the studio, new computers, new equipment, all new."

"Fergie is very embarrassed at this age. Her voice is very high, but she is still childish. Now, there are lots of white girls who sing adult Lyric. Everyone is a genius who has been around since childhood. The competition is too fierce."

"I know Fergie is a child star, but what happened to the Americana child stars In fact, I also gambled on her

"No, I won't promise to be a specialist, and I'm not going to sign her for five years Let her sing harmony or something in my songs

"Her children's contract ended the year before last, didn't she?"

"Of course, I won't be stingy about the cost of training singers."

Finally, Dana "won" a new singer contract for feiji, with a contract fee of $50000 for every three years. Meanwhile, a + records will be responsible for feiji's tuition fees in Chicago, dance classes and training fees for vocal music learning.

After seeing Dana off, song Ya finds out some rubbish music that others have put into a + record in her desk, and laughs secretly, "this stupid woman doesn't understand the tricks of the record company, Jie Jie Jie..."
