Chapter 165： album recording

... After the premiere of The Princess Diaries, Anne Hathaway was in the middle of a busy publicity campaign.

The most surprising thing is that a reporter came to interview Katherine Bell. From the name alone, you can tell that they are all from the Bell family, and Anne Hathaway mentioned before that Catherine Bell is indeed Evan Bell's mother. In terms of the degree of repercussions, there are currently only four works by Katherine Bell in public, three by Gu Luobei and one by Anne Hathaway. And neither of these two can be called top artists. Although they are both new favorites of the media recently, this does not mean anything, and they are not enough to make designers famous. Therefore, when a reporter comes to the door, it is called an accident.

But the reporter did not write news, but out of curiosity. Catherine Bell's four known works all show the talent of design, as well as the meticulous tailoring, and the most important thing is the accurate grasp of the temperament - of course, because the two models are close to her. . But the reporter still hopes to have a contact with Catherine-Bell.

Teddy Bell has some experience in the position of an agent, and many famous designers also have agents to handle affairs, so he naturally shoulders the diplomatic work of Catherine Bell. Teddy Bell knew that this opportunity was very rare, and it was not necessary to publicize Katherine Bell's name, but it was definitely a good start to enter the industry. So accompanied by Teddy Bell, Catherine Bell accepted an interview with the reporter.

After the interview, Katherine Bell's preparations for the design studio accelerated.

While Katherine Bell was busy, Gu Luobei, who was busy with graduation matters, was not idle. The day after the premiere of "The Princess Diaries" in July, Gu Luobei entered the recording studio and started Record the album. In fact, it is an album recording. At present, the recording of the four songs "Just a Dream", "Broad Ocean and Sky", "Final" and "Crazy World" have been completed, and the rest is only the homework of six songs. To be precise, it is the preparation of half an album.

Gu Luobei was planning to go to the UK after recording the album, to travel and to watch the grand occasion of the talent show. I have watched a lot of talent shows in the past life, because it is the easiest way for grassroots to realize their music dreams. Although he never said it, he always wanted to participate, but unfortunately he was not able to achieve it in the end. This time, the "pop idol", the originator of the talent show, was born in the hands of Gu Luobei. It would be a pity not to visit him.

This time, when I entered the recording studio, the situation was much better, but Gu Luobei was in a hurry by himself, especially the recording of the song "Tonight Tonight" was always worse.

Gu Luobei knew that his qualifications in the recording studio were too nèn, and he had no experience in dealing with these issues.

Sitting in front of the audio console, Gu Luobei was dazed by the chorus part of "Tonight Tonight". He always felt that the expected effect was not achieved and the appeal was not strong enough, but he couldn't find the reason. It was the arrangement problem. Or the use of instruments. At this time, experience is extremely valuable, even if Gu Luobei is reborn, even if Gu Luobei is talented again, if you don't understand it, you don't understand it.

At this moment, the doorbell of the recording studio rang suddenly. This time, Gu Luobei still came to the high-end recording studio that was specially used for renting goods. After all, he did not own his own recording studio. Although the recording cost here is higher, it is more expensive because of the convenience of use and the recording effect is not good. Say.

Since it is a recording studio for rental goods, it is inevitable that there will be times when it needs to be disturbed. For example, when the rental time is up, the users inside still don’t come out. Another example is that the takeaway has arrived, etc. Therefore, there is a doorbell at the entrance of each recording studio, and no sound can be heard outside, only the recording studio with excellent sound insulation effect. Can only be heard inside.

"Who is it?" Gu Luobei murmured, if Teddy Bell came in, he wouldn't say hello, and just walked in lightly: Eden-Hudson, that iceberg, came and sat twice, both like ghosts floated in.

When he opened the door and saw the baby face, Gu Luobei was really surprised, "Badelt, what are you doing here?" Standing outside the door of the recording studio was Teacher Qiméng in Gu Luobei's recording studio, Klau S-Badeert. After the last recording of the single, Klaus-Badleter joined the team of his mentor Hans-Zimmer on the score for "Pearl Harbor", and the two hadn't seen each other for a long time.

Klaus-Badelt's round baby face always has a grin on his face, and it's easy to overlook the fact that he is over 30 years old. "Come and see your recording progress." Klaus-1 Badert has the rigor of a German. Gu Luobei will answer whatever he asks, and he doesn't mean to joke at all. However, from the smile on his face, he can still see his kindness.

Gu Luobei was stunned for a while, let the door open and let Claus-Badelt walk into the recording studio, "How did you know I was here. I mean, why did you come to see my recording progress? .

"It's Claire, he said that your recording is not going very well, so let me have time to come over and take a look." Klaus-Baddlet sat down in front of the sound console habitually, and the music scores were scattered randomly on the table. The messy sheet music is painted on it, which is the embodiment of the confusion of thoughts.

Gu Luobei suddenly realized, "Oh, come on, the release of this album has been signed to Warner Records, and Claire-Days is very attentive. Gu Luobei has only started recording less than a week ago. Claire-Days It came back and forth three times.

"Exactly, since you are here, you have to help me with the answer." Gu Luobei sat down happily immediately, he was confident, but not the kind of **** who was so arrogant. There is a specialization in the field of surgery. Of course, Gu Luobei has something he doesn't understand. If he doesn't understand, he has to ask. Therefore, the arrival of Klaus-Badelt not only did not make Gu Luobei feel shy, but instead felt the refreshment of a long drought. "Listen, I always feel dissatisfied with the chorus part of this song, and it doesn't meet my requirements."

Gu Luobei couldn't wait to play the recorded soundtrack of "Tonight Tonight", like a student asking for advice from a teacher.

Klaus-Badleter did not refuse, but he was confident in the studio. The main song part of the song has not been played, and as soon as Badert is finished, Klaus pressed the pause button, "In this part, you don't think that the sound of the drum set is extracted, and simply using the strings of the electric guitar will make the rhythm more cheerful and cut in. During the chorus, the contrast in the sound of the instruments can easily create a sense of presence." Gu Luobei didn't answer immediately, holding his chin and frowning and thinking, "You mean, the background music is simplified here to highlight the contrast of the music."

"Yes, the rhythm of the lyrics here is so fast, it's all under your control, you can make a **** and play it freely according to the atmosphere of the scene. The simplest electric guitar strings are used as the background sound, you can control Rhythm." Klaus-Badleter is worthy of being a professional in the studio, and quickly grasped the core context of the song.

Klaus-Badelt saw that Gu Luobei was still thinking, but he already had a sense of identity in his eyes. Now he was more digesting this arrangement method, and then played the song. The song cuts into the chorus with only two sentences, and Klaus starts laughing as soon as Badert is at work. This strict German has always seldom smiled at work. In the last recording, Gu Luobei and Klaus-Badelt had a lot of disputes during the recording process. I don't want to, but now he actually laughed, which interrupted Gu Luobei's thinking.

"The thing you're worrying about recently is that the chorus isn't as appealing as expected." Gu Luobei couldn't help but nodded after Claus-Badleter's words. The expert's ears were really extraordinary. It seemed that Gu Luobei Bei Zai's arranging and learning in the recording studio have only just begun." "You only need to increase the sound of the electric guitar to create a god. By the way, if you add bass, the effect will be even better. "You know that the bass is in charge of the bass part, right?" Claus-Badelt paused the music again and looked at Gu Luobei seriously.

In the recording studio, being able to master the angle and use of various instruments is a compulsory course for becoming an excellent arranger and creator. Obviously, Gu Luobei's understanding of bass is too skinny.

"If you use electric bass or synthetic bass, this deep sound will add to the modernity of the song, not only has the effect of integrating modern jazz, but also can create a **** to control the rhythm silently, which is to grasp the heartbeat of the audience. An important part of the rhythm."

Hearing these words Gu Luobei suddenly thought of a sentence "Bass and drums are the rhythm controllers in the band, that's the reason, right?" Of course Gu Luobei has always said this sentence. Yes, but it is not his specialty after all, and his understanding is still too superficial to be used flexibly.

"Yes, if you can create a god, you can also create a **** and try to re-arrange the verse with an electric bass. I think the effect will be better than the pure electric guitar strings." Klaus-Badelt thought of just now The key point mentioned can't help but add that "using the bass as a prelude makes the emotional cut in the band more natural when playing."

"Wow, why don't we try it now?" Gu Luobei was eager to try it out, his eyes twinkling brightly. This is the radiance of love for music, which made Klaus-Badelt smile. "By the way, you should have time, right? Don't tell me, you really came here to sit and leave immediately." The latter sentence was obviously a joke by Gu Luobei.

But Klaus-Badelt just smiled and shrugged. He didn't respond to Gu Luobei's ridicule, but said, "Then hurry up, I don't have much time left."
