The revised album "TIFA Chen Zi Tong (DELUXE)" has just been released, which is a summary and expression of Chen Zi Tong's participation in the "Sister Riding the Wind and Waves 2" program. There are two songs from the show's first stage, "The two re-adapted songs sung on "Sister 2" have a good response, and I would like to say that I will send it out." "Agarwood" is a Chinese style that Chen Zitong likes, and it is also her own original work, and she hopes that everyone will see her ability to create. "ANYTHING YOU WANT" is a happy song, relaxed, happy, catchy. Chen Zitong likes to sing such songs, and she gave the song a nickname of "Little Sweet Song", which is a gift she gave to fans and her debut for 7 years.

The four new songs added to the album continue the album's philosophy of showing itself, especially the Chinese style. In this era of rising national tide and high sense of national identity, national style represents pride and fashion. The Chinese style in Chen Zitong's eyes is not a "hodgepodge", it must be integrated but cannot be added. In the new song "Agarwood", some people once suggested adding traditional instruments such as guzheng. Considering that it might ruin the mood of the song, she dismissed this idea, "It's not necessarily good to add anything."
Chen Zitong has always been interested in Chinese style and R&B music. She believes that the charm of the Chinese style is reflected in the expression, "implicit ancient Style" lyrics plus the traditional "Gongshang Jiao Zhengyu" five tones. The melody itself has its own way of telling, which is different from modern music. "It doesn't have to be a lot of antique instruments or whatever." Chen Zitong said. In Agarwood, she deliberately avoids using overly traditional instrument sounds. "It's mainly about reflecting the Chinese style in terms of the sense of atmosphere and the melody of the lyrics, and the accompaniment sounds like it has feelings, but it's not a traditional Chinese style thing, it just has that atmosphere." She likes the smell of agarwood, which is not irritating, not intense but always surrounds her.

Chen Zitong said that the album is "rainbow color", and a variety of styles are combined. "Most of my own songs are based on my own stories, my own emotions, my attitude towards life, including love, affection, friendship, and the feeling of struggle of life." Someone asked Chen Zitong this question, why the album does not have such a strong label. Any style, any feeling. Chen Zitong said, "Probably most of it is because I like everything myself." "Rap, Chinoiserie, POP, lyricism, rich colors, this is chen zitong's background." The album is called "TIFA Chen Zi Tong", so it is all about me. She said. In the future, Chen Zitong hopes to have the opportunity to compose his own "national style" song with experienced traditional instrument musicians.
The collaboration with Peking Opera veteran actor Wang Peiyu in the "Flowing Song" program is another attempt at "Chinese style". Wang Peiyu sings pop songs and Chen Zitong's R&B are fused in one song. Chen Zitong was encouraged by Wang Peiyu's courageous attempts, and did not flinch even when she sang a strange song for the first time. Chen Zitong said: "I am looking forward to being able to come with her a song that collides with Peking Opera elements and modern music." ”

The transformation of music is something that Chen Zitong has been thinking about recently. "The previous music style is still a little younger, of course, it is not very mature, but maybe the whole person has reached the age of being called a sister after all, and will want to do some transformation."
Image and style, she wants to make some kind of change. In the future, she still wants to stick with R&B, or "something with a little steam wave that slightly returns to the melodic nature of the music tradition."

Participating in "Sister Riding the Wind and Waves 2", Chen Zitong finally gained full of friendship and love. She is not good at interpersonal communication, and her biggest worry before recording is whether she will be "socially afraid" and whether she will be cold when she is with so many sisters in the reality show part. With the heart of "being yourself", Chen Zitong began to record. At first, she was a little nervous, but after getting acquainted, she found that everyone was very friendly and had a topic to talk about, and gradually let go of being intimate with everyone.
From December last year to April this year, Chen Zitong spent several months in "staying up late, rehearsing, and practicing dance", with no rest time. It wasn't until May that I was able to stay at home for a few days to adjust. On the night of the finals, she enjoyed the greatest state of relaxation during the entire recording period. Regardless of the outcome, being able to walk on this stage is already a victory. "I just show everyone a perfect stage, and I don't have too many concerns." In the end, she still has some regrets, and there are too many objective influencing factors on the stage. The experience that the whole show brought her was the most important and the biggest gain was interpersonal communication. Seeing the efforts of the senior sisters in the industry is the driving force for Chen Zitong to inspire himself to move forward. "After participating in "Sister 2", I think variety shows are very interesting, and I also want to try." Chen Zitong thought he had reached a suitable point in time and wanted to do more.

In 2015, he participated in the fourth season of "The Voice of China" and joined Universal Music in 2017, Chen Zitong said: "Music is something that I can't lack in my life, and I don't do music in the future, no matter what I do, I will still play music, and I love to listen to songs." "Chen Zitong likes to listen to music when swimming and driving, and different music represents different emotions." Music has a memory, for example, I now hear a song from before, I think about what happened at that time, it will have meaning, every song, at least the old song is meaningful to me. ”

Chen Zitong likes to sing since he was a child, "When I was a child, I was quite talented in music. When I first started learning the piano, I could pop up any melody I heard. The earliest picture of music bringing her joy in Chen Zitong's memory was in the third grade of primary school, when she first participated in a music competition held by the school. A song "Little Snail" defeated the older brother and sister to get the third place. This was the first time she won an award for her music, which opened her path to music. Slowly, competitions, awards, music gave her confidence a little bit. In high school, she was obsessed with European and American music, and she was more determined to go on pop music. For her, music is needed anytime, anywhere. "I'm very relaxed at home, and I love to listen to some catchy music that can be sung along, even dancing along, and hanging around at home."

In addition to music, Chen Zitong has a lot of imagination about life. She is extremely simple in life, "To be honest, I think it is quite boring, it is very normal to be a very homely person, and I don't like to go out and play." Chen Zitong recently cut her hair short, and she said to change her style and change her mood. "Changing your style is also a change of mood, there will be more different feelings, you changed your hairstyle today, maybe you have other moods, and then there is a song." 」 Change your look and change your mindset. "It's a pleasure to change."
