Last summer, Peach's "Summer of the Band" ignited a band boom. At the beginning of this year, Mango Station did not want to show weakness and launched "Our Band".
This show has been broadcast for several weeks, but I believe there are still many people who have not seen it at all.
Unlike "Le Xia", which directly plays the band, the positioning of "Our Band" is more focused on the group band, which is a bit of a cultivation class.
Select producers – members form their own – leaving the strongest band behind, highlighting a process from zero to one.
At the beginning of the broadcast, various ACE (band cores, producers) appeared, competing for ten limited band producer places.
That's two weeks.
Originally, as a niche theme, the band's attraction to passers-by was not too big, coupled with the music variety shows at the beginning of the year, one after another, in the face of a crowd of deer market, the rhythm of the two weeks that had not yet entered the performance was obviously too procrastinating.
As a result, the ratings of this show have been tepid, and the most out-of-the-loop topic in the first episode of the first episode is the castration of the lyrics of the "Singer" next door.
I have to say that this lyric has been changed to a strong desire to survive, and the words that were originally a little ambiguous have become literary and artistic styles in minutes.
"Literary master".
Hu Mengzhou's song with changed lyrics should be regarded as the best response in the entire ACE selection, and there are already 1.35 billion online broadcasts before the show.
At the beginning of the first issue, Ella said that as the first candidate to appear, she must be very strong, so that the skin of the people behind it is tightened a little.
Then Hu Mengzhou, who had his own boastful group, appeared.
The musicians at the bottom praised the audience and friends with a confused face.
The overall appearance is barely good, but it is not exaggerated to this extent, right?
Ami also couldn't help but search for it, and found that Hu Mengzhou had also participated in "The Voice of China" before this show, and won the turn of the three mentors with a unique voice, and successfully entered the Yu Chengqing team.
At that time, he was still a gym electronic boy,
...... Sorry I really appreciate it and bothered.
And then the music goes along, Ami os: This electronic music player went to the wrong show, right?
Hu Meng opened his mouth on Monday, emmm... It seems to be not bad.
After the interlude stage showmanship... true! fragrant!
Is that tapping on the pads! It's knocking on my heart!
In five minutes I want this little brother to do all of his past works!
An independent musician with rich experience in international music festivals and stages, he has cooperated with the master Alan Walker.
He also played on the same stage with Mr. Xie (Nicholas Tse),
Hu Mengzhou did take a complete and stunning work + stage to sample the candidates behind, and successfully obtained the first band ACE qualification.
The selection of teammates is simply a large confession scene.
Mr. Xie couldn't help but laugh when he saw it.
Adhering to the principle that his teammates must be "good-looking", Xiao Hu chose Li Changgeng, the lead singer from the trainee, among several candidates, and formed the "Beijing Cold" band with two other drummers and bass players.
Although "Our Band" started broadcasting, Hu Mengzhou's fan number still rose by tens of thousands overnight, which is the player with the most fans after the first program.
After two weeks of teaming up, the show finally entered its first performance in the third week.
As the most anticipated group of bands of the three band unlimited company bosses, this time Hu Mengzhou's "Beijing Cold" is completely solidified, cool.
All kinds of dazzling sound effects came pouring in, and the lyrics were just a few words back and forth. I thought it was going to end so decently, but I didn't expect that Li Changgeng suddenly flew a few legendary black voices.
...... It will not be evaluated, anyway, the expression of the audience is like this ↓
I didn't like that the number of votes rose like a rocket, and finally stopped at 97 votes.
Remember that if you collect 100 votes against it, you will immediately terminate the performance.
The voting results after the performance surprised the musicians, Deng Ziqi and Xiao Jingteng both exploded, but the audience voted only 399 votes, the whole field bottom, straight to the reorganization seats.
Alas, the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment.
In fact, this result is not difficult to predict, and the reason for the bottom is very simple.
First, the selection of songs is divorced from the taste of the masses
In the preliminary preparation, compared with other teams, "Beijing Cold" was quite smooth.
The song selection was unanimously approved, and Hu Mengzhou was full of confidence.
As a result, the music director of the program team poured a basin of cold water ↓ during the mid-term inspection
A complete electronic music, the melody is not difficult to listen to, but the electric sound is full of sense, there are too many elements, not suitable for band performance.
The band of Zheng Luoyu of the Music Healing Department also mentioned this popular taste issue during the discussion.
The keyboardist casually played a blues, and the lead singer sister complained mercilessly: vulgar!
The keyboardist immediately said that we all know the custom, but in line with the market, then what can you do~
The melody is customary, and their band still adds a lot of innovative and easy-to-accept elements, such as the sound bricks of the healing department and the small animals hanging on the instruments...
He is currently the first in the game in minutes.
Second, ACE is too conceited
After the fall of "Xi Ti", Hu Mengzhou posted a long article on the social platform saying that the road of original music is difficult, but he will continue to stick to it.
Brother, don't think so, the reason why you like to mention one is not just because the original track is not popular and unpleasant, but your current style is not suitable for the band market.
Such a work is completely fine to be an independent musician, but it is not very suitable to be a band, too much force will only backfire, and 97 votes of "dislike" is a warning.
The adaptation of the other band's double pipa folk minor "Exploring the Clear Water River" is not a mainstream work, but the song adaptation is just right, and it integrates the style they want without too many elements.
The band's ACE circle 9 represents ↓
I want to be able to keep everyone alive before I can do what I love together.
Hu Mengzhou: There is connotation to.
Third, there are big contradictions within the band
After the music director opened his head and felt that the arrangement was inappropriate, the band members followed suit, and they were right! Arrangement is not good! We really don't have room to play!
So I gently contacted the captain and said, you can't do it, we want to rearrange the music.
The captain remotely refused, before you did not say, now I do not change.
The drummer and bass were combined to make a demo overnight to impress the captain, but it was rejected again.
The drummer brother did not hesitate to say that this song is really not suitable for drumming.
Hu Mengzhou sent out a soul torture question: Then do you have a better solution?
Drummer: No.
Hu Mengzhou: Then you will listen to me.
Then the drummer brother smiled and went on strike.
Regardless of the wording issue, Ami felt that the way it was handled was acceptable.
The most taboo thing in brainstorming is to simply refute and overturn without proposing a better plan.
You think his arrangement is not good, you take the demo that you have done overnight to the captain to explain the facts and prove that I am better than you, more suitable for the band and on the stage than you.
Strikes are one of the most useless and uninteresting ways to deal with them.
But it cannot be said that the communication method between Hu Mengzhou and the team members can be more gentle, and several dialogues of the adapted song make Hu Mengzhou be sprayed by the bullet screen to his mother. As a captain, in addition to being responsible for the work, you must also be responsible for the team members.
Other bands have done a good job of that.
The wake-up service of the captain next door Leaf, leading the team to eat hot pot, and singing K made the cohesion of the whole band increase several levels.
Their lead singer Wang Beiche also said that playing with the band is playing with feelings.
After the start of the performance, many solo stage people who are not particularly eye-catching have completed the transformation of 1+1=3 after forming a band, and many bands are per capita ACE.
It's a bit difficult for a band like Hu Mengzhou's Beijing Leng to subtract in reverse and not change and want to continue.
After Hu Mengzhou expressed his insistence on self on Weibo, the lead singer wrote a small essay to support it, and the drummer said that it was really not my style, and it was obvious that the concept of the band members was completely different, and there had been too many differences.
If Hu Mengzhou is still reluctant to change slightly in the later stages, it may also be a good thing to reorganize musicians according to the rules.
But I still hope that Hu Mengzhou can understand that what he is doing now is a band. Since you want to go on the show to engage in a band, you need to make trade-offs, and it is not far from the electric sound.
While feeling that the audience does not understand, it is not advisable to rely on the audience to win more attention.
