Entertainment: The microphones are here, why is everyone so silent?
Chapter 60: A fusion of four styles?! It's not Ye Chen's fault he can't become popula
Upon seeing this message, Ma Boyuan's heart skipped a beat!
After being insulted by "Rakshasa Mirage".
Will this new song become another one that gets him criticized and attacked?!
If that were to happen, the sky would fall!
"Ye Chen has released a new song... Why don't you come listen and see if you can get some insightful commentary?"
Ma Boyuan wants to bring Zhang Rui on board; it's better than him being the only one being criticized!
"What's the song title?" Zhang Rui exhaled a long plume of smoke.
"Let me see... Hmm... Nocturne," Ma Boyuan consoled himself. "It's probably another love song."
"The song title is so corny?" Zhang Rui shook his head and chuckled. "I knew Ye Chen was stuck in his ways, unable to break free from the confines of love songs."
"It probably means something like a song played at night, and love songs are the most played at night." Ma Boyuan also thought the song title was corny.
As he spoke, he tapped his finger on the screen.
The sound was like a crackling noise from a radio station.
The melody of "Nocturne" began.
Guitar, drums, bass, piano... all playing at the same time!
Zhang Rui, who had been wearing a playful expression just a second ago, suddenly froze!
The prelude has a beautiful melody, yet it also has a strong classical feel!
"This, this innovative tactic... it's a killer prelude?!"
Ma Boyuan and Zhang Rui were both stunned!
In their understanding!
Even the biggest stars in the world could never create a melody like "Nocturne"!
Ye Chen's arrangement skills and imagination are unparalleled!
In just twenty-four seconds of the prelude, they completely changed their understanding of Ye Chen!
Despite still refusing to admit it!
But the shock they felt was simply unstoppable!
"No! This is absolutely impossible!" Zhang Rui clenched his fists and gritted his teeth!
Then, Ye Chen's fluent rapping voice rang out, completely shattering his last bit of anger!
"A swarm of bloodthirsty ants, attracted by carrion~"
I gaze at the lonely landscape with a blank expression.
"Without you, love and hate have become distinct."
"Without you, what else is there to care about..."
Ye Chen's voice rang out, and the two of them felt a chill run down their spines!
Ye Chen perfectly combined rap with Chopin's piano music!
The two looked at each other, both seeing astonishment in each other's eyes!
How could the quality of this piece be so incomprehensibly high?!
They were completely stunned by the prelude to "Nocturne"!
……
Listening to Flowers Island.
Chen Feng was completely captivated by the arrangement of "Nocturne," his heart filled with endless amazement!
Rap music didn't appeal to him much; he was more amazed by Ye Chen's arrangement.
Xu Hong, on the other hand, swayed to the melody.
My mind is filled with amazement at this rap replay!
Jiang Mengting couldn't help but chuckle: "I say, how many times have you all listened to this song? Why are you still so excited?!"
"You don't understand music, and you don't understand this 'Nocturne' either." Xu Hong opened his eyes and continued to hum and wave his arms.
"Of course I don't understand, but Ye Chen's song is really good!"
Jiang Mengting nodded and added, "Of course, if you can tell me what's so great about this song, I'd be happy to learn."
"This song hasn't even been released yet, but I've already listened to it on repeat dozens of times. I never get tired of it!"
"Actually, I'm quite curious too, why is this song so surprisingly good and easy to listen to again and again!"
"Sure, Professor Chen Feng is very knowledgeable. Would you like to give a presentation to President Jiang first?" Xu Hong asked.
Chen Feng nodded.
"The intro to this song is incredibly catchy!" He held up one finger. "Of all the music, Professor Ye Chen is the only one who can combine classical and pop music so perfectly!"
He looked at Jiang Mengting's questioning eyes and asked, "You might not understand what the combination of classical and popular music means?"
"It's like coating a block of ice with breadcrumbs and then frying it in oil. The breadcrumbs need to be golden and crispy, while the ice in the center needs to be soft and delicious, achieving a reasonable balance."
Zhao Ling was dumbfounded: "Is it that difficult?! How did Ye Chen manage to do it?"
"If I knew how he did it, would I even need to come here to learn?" Chen Feng said helplessly. "I can only say that Ye Chen's talent is truly terrifying!"
"Yes, Brother Chen is truly a top-tier talent!" Xu Hong chimed in. "President Jiang, do you know how many instruments Brother Chen used in the first twenty-four seconds of 'Nocturne'?"
Jiang Mengting shook her head blankly.
"Seven! A whole seven!" Xu Hong exclaimed excitedly, pointing with his fingers. "What does it mean to use seven instruments in just over twenty seconds?!"
"Seven types? What does that mean?" Jiang Mengting asked, puzzled.
"Most songs only have one or two intros. If someone can use three, we have to call them a genius!" Chen Feng explained.
"But Teacher Ye Chen used seven of them!"
Chen Feng was filled with mixed emotions: "The key is that he perfectly blended these seven instruments together! When you listened, did you feel any abruptness in the melody?"
Jiang Mengting instantly understood: "Hey! I never thought it was unsuitable; to me, it sounds perfect!"
"Yes, that's what makes Teacher Ye Chen so amazing! He perfectly controls the scale with absolute pitch!" Chen Feng couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.
He became more and more excited as he spoke, his whole body radiant: "But what follows is the most amazing part of this 'Nocturne'!"
"I won't go into detail about President Jiang; Director Xu knows! There are different styles of music, like folk, jazz, rock, R&B..."
"I won't say what you mean..." Jiang Mengting said indignantly.
"I've listened to so many songs, I have some understanding of musical styles. A song might have one style, two at most, and three are extremely rare!"
Chen Feng nodded: "Because it's difficult to make more than three types compatible."
"However! In 'Nocturne,' Professor Ye Chen has incorporated at least four different styles!"
Chen Feng became increasingly excited as he spoke: "Classical music, rock, rap, R&B... these form a complex yet harmonious arrangement structure!"
"These combinations and arrangements create melodies that are sad, depressing, and poignant, yet also warm, sunny, and captivating."
"Furthermore, after a detailed analysis, I discovered that this song has a whopping ten sub-structures!"
Xu Hong was completely dumbfounded!
"Ten small structures?! That's three times more than other songs?!"
Xu Hong was completely unaware that the details in "Nocturne" were so outrageous!
"Calling Brother Chen a monster is an understatement!" Xu Hong rubbed his head with both hands. "What kind of good person is so heartless and insane?!"
Jiang Mengting, who was initially at a loss, saw Xu Hong's devastating reaction.
My heart was shaken!
Ye Chen completely overwhelmed her music director with her song "Nocturne"!
"Wow, this song is amazing!" Jiang Mengting's head was buzzing!
"Wrong! It's not amazing! It's terrifying! It's horrifying!" Xu Hong corrected. "Teacher Chen Feng only talked about the arrangement; have you thought about the lyrics?"
Jiang Mengting gaped, astonished, and exclaimed, "There's a meaning to lyrics?!"
"Brother Chen used a lot of imagery, metaphors, and parallelism in his lyrics! And they have a very cinematic feel to them!"
Xu Hong was both smug and envious to the point of collapse: "In my eyes, it's a flawless masterpiece! This 'Nocturne' is simply impeccable!"
Jiang Mengting was stunned, as if struck by lightning!
Their own music director praised Ye Chen's song to the skies!
So, if "Nocturne" doesn't become a hit, then the fault isn't Ye Chen's, but the entire music industry's?!
