Without further ado, let’s start today’s “Doctoral Music Review”.
GALI's new single " Shanghai Love Talk ", a Shanghainese "love song" Rap. The arrangement of this song sounds like a love song, with romantic and gentle synthesizer sounds and a little bit of clear pop guitar chords.
is arranged with a love song atmosphere, but the object of this love story is actually "Shanghai". It is a work that expresses pride and love for hometown. The work is relatively standardized, but the concept is relatively novel, and the very life-like scenes can indeed make the audience clearly feel the scenery and unique charm of Shanghai.
"Lonely Noodle Shop" EP was completed by five people including Fan Hui, GALI, Jiang Yunsheng, Li Jiage, Liu Sijian, and has five singles of the same name. There are three pop songs and two HipHop songs in total. In fact, after listening to five songs, you can clearly find that the expression form of Rap does have a disadvantage in emotional expression.
This album is about five people interpreting the loneliness in their hearts. GALI and Jiang Yunsheng both adopted relatively calm expressions. When the content is vague and the artist wants to use images and references or things to express loneliness, such a calm and light sadness is indeed not attractive enough.
On the contrary, the other three can all captivate the listener with beautiful timbres and melodic compositions. I personally prefer the retro song, which has a little bit of electronic elements and is not very dance floor-like, but some dreamy electronic sounds also have a good interpretation of the lonely atmosphere.
Lazy’s new single "Cure EMO Psychology". In the past year, there have been many Chinese rap fans. This song has set a new limit, and it is not ordinary unpleasant.
Punk Although the chords are very simple and the singing skills are not very particular, this is a rogue band, and the composition is still popular. It's just such a big white voice, without any ups and downs in the arias, it has nothing to do with pop, and it doesn't have the rebellious spirit of punk. The only highlight of this song is that the riff selection is okay, it’s a bit wasted.
Zhihuobang's new single "Dagger". Today's music arrangements are becoming more and more complex, but they all ignore the most important rhythm. This song is my favorite, it is drum beat + bass + loop, and it is close to the rap mood through timbre selection.
does not need anything too complicated, and the atmosphere is there. The most important thing is that Groove is sufficient. The content is bragging, and this kind of arrangement is most suitable for showing off Flow technology and accent.
Gem new EP, "MoreThan: Respect·III". One rock arrangement and two Chinese style arrangements. To be honest, they are not very good.
rock + Boombap arranges "Young Dou Wei". The arrangement is pretty good. I like the distortion of the guitar very much. But the song as a whole is too stable. The old uncle's flow, accent, and drum rhythm set, the whole song just flows smoothly, but it really doesn't have the explosive power to match the riff.
As for the two songs "Jiang Xue" and "Ashes of Time", they both chose more ethereal and melodious orchestrations and melodies in the instrumental part, but old man 's control is a little heavier. "Western Poison" is okay, but "Jiang Xue" is really a bit too much.
Blow's new single "MISUNDERSTOOD", the principle of "there is no woman in the heart, the god of nature draws the sword" still applies to this song.
Although flow has never been Blow's strong point, this song is a little bit "chanting", but the level is just on the edge of my acceptance level: it has a little rhythm, and it also expresses my own voice well. It can be regarded as a balance of both. The melody section is also still beautiful.
However, the nature and focus of this song also determines that it is not at the full level of Blow. The lyrics are still a bit rusty, but it is better than simple and clear.However, he does not seem to have any direct response to the relationship between men and women that everyone is concerned about.
Shouzi’s new single “Sister”, Shouzi’s recently released new single MV is quite funny and fun, this song is a playful little love song.
Afro drum beats, very bright and warm guitar chords, the whole song is filled with various rhythm groups, and the rhythm orchestration is very full. The passionate rhythm is intoxicating, and it can be regarded as making up for the lack of singing skills to a certain extent, making everyone pay more attention. Concentrate on the swing.
Although the performance is not as good as the previous one, the MV is well shot, awkward and funny. Facing a beautiful woman is like an awkward dance. It is a high-quality male courtship behavior in human beings. The result is an erotic dream in the end. It is recommended to listen to this song in conjunction with the MV. Song.
Henan rap god "Truth or Dare", the Henan god's recent single style has not changed much, but it is still obvious. The arrangement is cleaner, just a simple trap rhythm section, broken Hihat, some piano melody, and the vocal melody creation follows the orchestration.
The biggest highlight of this song is the very smooth melody. Such pure Sing Rap EMO songs are not very popular now, but Henan God is still persisting. Facts have proved that the talent is indeed there.
Ariou's new single "Breaking Dawn" opens with a smooth and delicate electric piano riff. The melody creation is also very suitable for this riff, and it is full of warmth.
This song is full of vigor and vitality. It is essentially a melodious melody suitable for waving hands. It is controlled in the way of Sing Rap, and the rhythm is quite varied. The only shortcoming is the Auto-Tune preset. The "inductance" is really too much, the vocals are a bit fragmented, and there is no "moisture" that the arrangement should have.
Xiao Ai 's new single "Mo Nai He", like the previous EP, has very distinct national characteristics, especially in terms of melody creation.
The duration of this song is quite well controlled. In fact, the melody creation of the entire song is relatively monotonous, and the content output of the Verse is only to the point where it is clicked. It does not go into too much depth. If you make too many supplements on Hook, you will lose it. Psychedelic and brainwashing effects.
Pissy Xiao Li's new single "Awards". This song is quite popular. It is a simple trap rhythm group. It gives a very high-pitched wind instrument timbre, and the vocals express emotions along with it. It is similar to the timbre of flute , and the tone of the passages is more humorous. .
In fact, because the studio version was mastered in post-production, the emotional expression is somewhat weakened. This song is more suitable for live performances. It has sections that show off technique and some sections that shake. For a trap single, it is a comparison The comprehensive technical display is also more in line with today's little girls' understanding of handsomeness.
Yang Hesu new single "From That Day", Yang Hesu is still somewhat good at singing pop songs, at least in the upper reaches of Chinese rappers, and better than most KTV players. Although it is also a set of chords and there is no creativity in the composition, it is still listenable and the melody is a very standard pop thing.
The addition of a little rock element is also suitable for Yang and Su's more explosive performance style. Some parts have a bit of an angry sound, but I always feel that it's not quite right. Maybe this is what everyone says: "There's no technique, it's all emotion."
Feibao, RebelMan, MADPROLE, Deeway, O Ji, Clock J, SoulHan released the song "MIC PASS". This song has a homophonic sound, and the baton is passed on from generation to generation of HipHop musicians in Guangzhou.
In fact, as a Cypher song, people rarely choose a BoomBap Beat, but for such content, other arrangements feel less serious.
This is not a work that shows skills. Everyone feels like it was more than ten years ago, and they are all in the exploratory stage, a bit clumsy, but sincere.For such songs, Guangzhou listeners will surely resonate more. Both musicians and listeners are working hard for HipHop in this land.
GAI's new single "Tianming", regardless of the significance of this song, but among GAI's mainstream songs in the past year or two, this song is not considered to be of the highest level. The melody composition of the hook part is somewhat "tactful" and lacks the domineering and publicity that a police character should have.
In addition, there are some traditional Chinese musical instruments that are "discordantly inserted" in the main song, and the whole song seems a bit messy, but it is not as good as some of his advertising songs in reflecting the character image.
Shouheng collaborated with SASIOVERLXRD on the new single "1234567". To be honest, I never thought that these two people could get together. When Shou Heng controls Trap music, there are always many shadows of his past techniques, which is a bit stiff.
In this dark, tough and brainwashing Trap work, Shou Heng is still showing flow and reasoning. In comparison, SASI's lyrics are meaningless, but they are a lot more natural. Everyone's understanding of Trap is different, but Shouheng's control is not outstanding to me.
KT Yang Juntao's new single "I'm Not Happy" is a work by a fellow fan. The advantages and disadvantages of this song are relatively obvious. The advantage is that the composition is popular enough, and KT's performance is also very emotional. It is full of enthusiasm and vitality. It fits the content of the song and can bring a great atmosphere to the audience. force. The shortcoming of
is that the arrangement lacks a popular taste. It is mainly rhythm guitar, lacks a lead guitar, has a little lead guitar passage, and has a heavy overdriven tone. Furthermore, KT doesn’t sing very much in punk, nor is he very popular, and his accent is a rather silly white voice.
Zhihuobang's new single "True To The Crew". To be honest, this song is not well controlled. The arrangement of this song is a special mixed 808 with some country elements. Especially the wind instrument loop, the tone is particularly empty and flying.
But except for Hook, the other sections are a bit over-exerted, emphasizing their own rap accent and flow style. Although they have their own characteristics, they don't match the arrangement of this song, and there is no sense of flying at all.
