Without further ado, let's start today's Doctor's Review.
Wang Ether's new single "Big Time", the advertising song of the League of Legends mobile game. I have the impression that league of legends advertising songs are very passionate, with some soaring high-pitched singing segments. This time the gameplay is really good, the back-shooting guitar plus the strong rhythm of Electro Swing, the taste is witty and humorous.
The level is also good, the vocals and orchestration are layer by layer, the structural increase is very smooth, I have not heard much trace of advertising songs, Han Xingzhou and Zhou Fujian can also make such a no commercial shadow of the arrangement and composition, it seems that the money is in place, the housekeeping skills are taken out.
Shooter cooperated with Babe's new single "The Most Scummy Male Lead", after this song was released, Babe was scolded miserably, and the comments were all sprayed on him.
To be fair, the song is very well-sung and sings enough, and it does create a bit of a scumbag atmosphere. I like this accompaniment, that is, pure drum beat plus Bassline, and it is even more noisy if Bassline can be more open. However, such a strong rhythm greatly complements the rhythm group, which is also an advantage.
Shooter's personal Versase and singing section are very noisy, his own timbre is very characteristic, thin and sharp, singing is also good, giving a very close to Bassline Sing Rap.
But Babe's part is really not my feeling, his Sing Rap is really out of tune and out of tune, in such an unadorned arrangement and mix, I think his voice and a little melody are very difficult to listen to.
Ma Siwei's new single "Pulled", Most of Ma Siwei's songs in the past two years have been crossed by reviews, and this song is a response. But this song is still pulling, the big white voice has been looping "you baby pulled", I don't feel any brainwashing.
But his words in the Verse section are well written, a kind of "Who Care?" The attitude, arrogant and natural, with Ma Siwei's coffee position, is indeed entitled not to care about any evaluation. But I still want to hear the studio version of the song, and I hope it's not as much as the live version.
Double Face cooperated with Lee Canaan's new single "Your Name", this song is really uncomfortable to hear, its own arrangement and orchestration is a very clean acoustic guitar tone, and the chords have a strong sense of pop, which has the clean juvenile feeling of "Your Name".
As a result, this Auto-Tune is really too inferior, the first half of the composition of eighty percent of the length is the pop singing segment, there is no Sing Rap, add Auto-Tune even if it is, the degree is so fierce, completely do not feel the pop should be melodious, smooth and the atmosphere of this song should have relaxed. The degree of effect of the second half is still within my acceptance range.
GM Immortal "Agni Flames", this song is a tribute to the firefighters and warriors. Not to mention the content, let's say that this arrangement and control is really good. The traditional Chinese instrumental music used in this song is really quite a lot, what pipa, guzheng, and na, you can call the name of the use, but it is not a pile.
One is that there are not many parts of modern music, but there is a Trap rhythm type, and the loudness in the later stages is also pressed by the orchestrator, just with a basic rhythm of Flow; the second is that the author can control the musical mood of each paragraph very well.
Soft place is the kite and pipa cooperation, Hook is to highlight the na, the musical mood will have a main instrument to reflect, as a Chinese style Trap arrangement, this accompaniment application is still quite extensive.
Xiao Qinglong's new EP "4:30PM", this EP has three songs, and each song probably listens to a prelude to know what it is like. They are all melodic instruments with a strong sense of atmosphere, with strong directivity, and have relatively large limitations on human voices. And the little green dragon jumped out of the frame brought by the orchestration, but this is not a good thing.
I think none of the three songs are properly accompanied by the harnessing, the application of the triplet is too much, the Flow conversion is also very jerky, the Flow control and vocal emotion that match the atmosphere are not given, and the things are formatted and mismatched, which is not interesting.
ICE's new single "Too Cool" is the first single for the new album Romance 3. Things are quite European and American, but there is no breakthrough. Stable and not high BPM, Future timbre orchestration, melody without a full-bodied pure atmosphere, vocal tape point R&B singing.
These things are more common in the works of some female singers, ICE is also quite appropriate, through the mix to highlight the vocal characteristics, more sandy, more grainy, but also more clear, but also has a certain sense of technology effect, than the Bad Street Auto-Tune has more ideas.
Mustafa's first solo album "The Lights", originally listened to the first song and thought it would be a non-distinctive, more standard Auto-Tune sub-forced song album, and later found that this album really used a lot of distinctive things, especially in the African drums and rhythm is very brilliant.
Vocals are like that, but I like the arrangement of most of the songs, the arrangement is really shaking, "Lost in Tokyo" is a Bass dance song, "Mamacita" plays reggae rhythms, "Magic Summer Nights" plays african drums, and "Medusa" plays flamenco guitar.
People who listen to songs less, listen to this album you can't shake. And the vocals can give a melody that fits the arrangement, even if each song is Auto-Tune, it will not feel homogeneous or boring after listening.
Double Stick's new single "You Deserve to Be Single", or a life lyric, like a vernacular talk to you about his life ideas, or the familiar Hanger Lang Dang's Beijing accent of Flow.
Nothing has changed, but it's just cozy, and I also prefer the jazz sampling of this song, which has a bit of a New Orleans flavor. Although it is not a song with more difficulty and more artistry, it is an effect.
Joker's new single "Gotham Villain", the Joker's song is still quite strong, as a technical song that rhymes on the Show Flow show, and unexpectedly sets up musical roles.
The Joker compares himself to gotham's clown, not only the same name, but also the clown's personality in the arrangement, elegant and sinister, and the clown's Flow tone shows the side of Zhang's madness and evil charm. Just look at the song itself, but combined with this musical role, it is a different feeling.
The single of Pikett's "Chang'an Youth", the arrangement mood is particularly in line with the content expression. The Hook section highlights the drums as much as possible, and the timbre selection is extremely penetrating.
The melody section is even more simple and rough, and a distorted overload guitar Riff is manic from beginning to end. In the Rap Verse section, the guitar scene is weakened, a little electronic sound is added, and the strength of the drums is highlighted, creating a very simple and direct sense of irritability.
This song is also more special for the mix of vocals, you can hear a little bit of Auto-Tune, but the preset control is better, the sound will not be too distorted and shaky, and can also form a certain cooperation with the guitar Riff, will not make Auto-Tune appear very abrupt in the original drum beats, this texture is very unique.
Huang Zitao's new single "Ceo of China", a very standard Trap, using a rumba flavor of Loop, but also quite elegant, the rhythm is 808Trap Beat, triplet application.
There is nothing wrong with it and there is no feature, but Huang Zitao's voice has been deliberately sanding his throat, and the pronunciation position is very high, which is a bit deliberate, making me a little shaken.
Liu Shanxin's new single "Grandpa", this lyrical song is very suitable for Liu Shanxin, and his Rap itself is soft, with a clear division but not the kind of softness that is depressed. Coupled with his own lyrics and writing skills, writing this kind of lyrical song is both literary and artistic, and can make everyone feel his emotional expression very clearly.
Kung Fu Fat's new single "Triumph", a Trap work with the number as the main Loop. As I said in my previous review, I don't like to use the number as a Loop song in large pages, because the number is too rogue. But this song is OK, one is that the melody is more turbulent, not too high-pitched; the other is that the kung fu fat Rap Tone has strength and can hold this number.
Wang Qiming's new single "No Longer There", a work with a relatively heavy sense of popularity. The song was sung in Rapper of the Week, and I think the studio version is better than the live version, with higher reverberation and delay to the vocals, a sense of emptiness and desolation, and a lot of content for the whole song. At the same time, it can also cover up the unevenness of some vocal effects, as well as the flaws of Wang Qiming's own singing skills.
For a new generation team, the first album "Chinese Rap Legend", it is still commendable to have a full-length album with comprehensive style, good basic skills and standard driving.
I basically listened to the whole album, there is nothing too surprising, it is mainly based on 808 music, all kinds of Types are more common, and they are also more liked by young people.
The basic skills of the four people are not bad, and they have a relatively mature understanding of each style and a standard control. Of course, this album also has more humorous and witty works such as "Extraordinary Brother" and "Chinese Rap Legend", which is still worth listening to.
Big Silly new single "Stupid Woman", the melody of this song is still quite popular, although the performance mood does not have that feeling. But the arrangement is really messy, and the audio tracks are piled up a lot.
My first reaction after listening to this song is that modern music production technology is really good. In the Hook part of the pure singing, I couldn't hear the silly timbre at all, and the effect and trimming were full. On this mix, after listening to it, I feel that I can also do it.
That's when I suddenly thought of the phrase: less is more. Because I do "Dr. Music Review" every week, so I still hear more songs, I really give advice to musicians, of course, including producers, don't always think that there are effects to pile up into a song.
This is the same as cooking, it used to be difficult for a smart woman to cook without rice, and now it is a variety of top ingredients, depending on how you match. If you put all the good ingredients together and stir-fry a dish, and the result is that you are skewering each other, do you think it will be delicious?
Teacher Tang cooperated with screwdriver and Xuan Lang's new single "You Don't Understand!" The Hook of this song is really so funny, holding the voice of a duck, a dialect, very funny, and very magical and brainwashed.
I listened to it and nodded along with it. This song is very good as a Trap, the magic brainwashing also has a fried point, and the cooperation of several people has its own characteristics, the layers are full, shake and fried.
Wang Haoxuan's boy band FIVE X's single "Final Start Restart", a typical boy band song, dance music accompaniment on rap, plus a chorus of "inexplicably want to soar high can not go up can only rely on falsetone". Anyway, I don't have a good feeling about this kind of boy band song, plus this accompaniment choice is a bit Bounce, more or less a bit of earth.
Mercy's new single "Tonghui River Freestyle", a BoomBap single composition. The song is so handsome, Mercy has been picking at other people's Flow, but no one has said that he is not, because his Flow is too dick, too smooth, too smooth to switch, without any blunt changes, but every sentence is not the same.
I don't like V.O.B BoomBap because his strength is a bit too heavy, not smooth enough, Flow is also relatively monotonous, Mercy's BoomBap Flow can definitely be at the top of the rap circle in Chinese.
Among the above songs, which one is your favorite, you are welcome to communicate in the comment area.
