For any rock band, the appeal of live performances is very important, because for a rock band, live performances are the most direct way of performing the hard power of the band. In a lively scene, pitch and rhythm are actually the most basic factors. Doing well in these links can only be regarded as satisfactory. Uncertain factors such as emotional release, live infection, audience drive, and live performance are the factors that determine whether the scene can be The key links are called "fine" colors, and these links are precisely the best links to show the absolute strength of the band.
In the field of music, idol singers have always been a link that cannot be ignored. In fact, it does not mean that idol singers have no strength. The most important thing is the company's packaging positioning. Of course, most of the reasons are because these singers are insufficient. But on the whole, idol singers occupy The trump card of the market is the image, popular elements and topics. On the contrary, the strength is the last part. Even idol singers are required to choose their counterparts at the performance site. The most important thing is that they are worried that their live performances are prone to ugly. Sufficient ability to control the scene.
At this point, South Korea, which is located in the east of Asia, is the most obvious. They are well-known for producing idol singers around the world, especially in the form of combinations that try to conceal the hard power problems of singers. Generally speaking, Korean record companies are keen to select Choose one or two talented candidates, and then pair them with candidates who are outstanding in appearance, dance, or eloquence, but lack strength, and combine them into a group, and then achieve the goal of launching records and winning the audience's love. The "combination" itself is actually a manifestation of uneven strength.
Therefore, the ability of Korean singers to lip-synch is even considered to be one of the essential elements of idol singers. Their live performances can be criticized, and there will often be tragedies that 'reveal' once they sing the scene. It cannot be said that this is wrong or not worth promoting. This is also a form of singers. Super boys, backstreet boys, and Justin Bieber justhn have also appeared in Europe and America. ) And a series of idol singers like entertainers launched by Disney, which are part of the music market.
However, among the idol singers, there are very few bands or bands but they have not been able to make a name for themselves. The idol bands that are "swinging" under the name of "rock" are really only Joe. The Nas brothers (jmhers) can be regarded as winning a lot of attention. This idol band launched by Disney walks the music scene with pop rock and has achieved certain results, but in the end it quickly declined.
Idol rock bands, or idol bands, are basically a form that is difficult to maintain.
This is because the live performance ability of a rock band is a very important part, even surpassing the power of the album itself. Since the rise of rock and roll in the 1950s, there have been many bands relying on countless live performances to pull fans. The'fans' listened to and enjoyed the scene, and then they gave up on the band, which boosted the album sales. For a rock band, live performance is more important than anything else. Without live performance, it is neither rock nor band.
The live performance of the rock band is not only performing the song, but also performing the spirit. The lead singer's ability to control the song and the release of emotions and the rendering of emotions, the response of the band members to the audience, and the performance. Excitement and momentum, and even the mistakes made on the spot, are all part of the live performance. This is also the charm of the live performance. All these factors constitute the irreplaceable attraction of a rock band.
This is why Roger requested that he must watch the live performance of Glory To Death, and it is also the reason why Roger agreed to meet Glory To Death after reading the newspaper and listening to Henry. Because this is a band that has come out of countless performances. They are a band that has experienced all kinds of live performances. Such a band that relies on touring to attract the attention of fans and media themes, indeed It was to make Roger interested.
The band did not disappoint Roger.
Glory to death's live performance is impressive. Several members are performance-oriented, and Hugo, who is the lead singer, is also very special. In fact, Hugo's voice is not the typical rock-smoke voice at present. The mellow voice is full of warm and gentle sunshine, and it sounds more suitable for singing jazz or soul. Maybe the blues are also good. However, the band's music itself is very suitable for Hugo's overall feeling. It can be felt that Hugo's whole person has been integrated into the melody. Although Hugo's use of voice is a bit jerky and unprofessional, it can be used in the song. His emotions are presented in a way that belongs to him, and the infectious power that rushes to the face on the spot is very shocking.
Roger couldn't help but think of Henry's joke just now, let Hugo be the producer of the band's album, but now it seems that it is not necessarily a joke. Hugo's mastery of the band's style, as well as the soul he injected into the band, can be clearly marked. For a rock band, the producer who knows the band best can give full play to the strength of the band.
It can be said that Hugo independent as a singer is actually worrying. He has enough strength, but still needs to be polished. He has enough aura, but it still needs time; but as a band as a whole, Hugo does Exerting 200% of his energy, his live performances are not only impactful, but also infectious, and even more provocative. The most important thing is to bring the integrity of the band's performance to a higher level. This level is also It is the ultimate that a top lead singer can do.
In fact, signing a rock band is not a rare event for Roger. In recent years, rock and roll, which is considered to be dead end, has fully recovered, allowing people to re-see the scene of rock and roll 30 years ago, and even the media can't wait to believe that, Nirvana will lead rock into the second "Beatles" era.
Therefore, there will be rock bands appearing every other way, and the degree of development of underground rock in the United States has made countless music agents coveted, as if it were a huge gold mine. However, the current overall trend is too serious. The similarity of the band's style has formed a routine, and the technical innovation of the band's various instruments has also reached a bottleneck. Under such circumstances, no band can reach the height of Nirvana. , Which also makes rock and roll begin to'tide' to a certain extent.
Of course, if you choose a band with an adventurous and adventurous style to create a production, the risk to be taken is very serious. Imagine starting a keyboard player in the band, and Roger will shudder. It is estimated that music critics and loyal fans. 'Everything will be mad and chaotic'; and the band actually weakened the role of the guitar, and even simplified the chords, so the "rock and roll is dead" comment can already be foreseen in advance.
But Roger knew that success would not be possible without a breakthrough. This is the pulse of the times, and as the middle and high-level record companies, it can be more or less foreseeable. Now major record companies are brewing this opportunity. , As long as you grasp the opportunity of breakthrough, you can succeed in one fell swoop. But how can this timing be so easy to grasp? The senior record companies should be watching each other and trying to figure out each other; more importantly, who should grasp the timing?
In love, only the right time, the right place, and the right person can be perfect; why not make a breakthrough in the music world? Timing, style, and band are all indispensable.
Roger has been observing the rookie band since the beginning of the year. He has also assigned countless discerning music agents in several rock and roll towns, but unfortunately he has not been able to find a suitable target. Today, when I saw Glory To Death, Roger did not expect much. After all, the media reports exaggerated the possibility of "sex" is too great, but Glory To Death performed two songs on the spot, but he was easily persuaded. With Roger, Roger, who has been in the industry for more than 20 years, feels a little overwhelmed.
The band's creative ability, performance ability, and cooperation ability are all excellent. If the band is given some time to tour, they will grow to the point that makes people look forward to it; in addition, from the perspective of the record company, the band members also have packaging. The five members have their own characteristics, and Hugo, as the lead singer, is constantly talking about sex. It can be said that the band has won at the starting point.
Roger couldn't help but recall that in the past year, the media had reported on Hugo's musical talent several times. In fact, he never believed it. Even if a record company wanted to release an album for Hugo before the Golden Globes, Roger He sneered, thinking that this was just a media hype. But now it seems that Hugo is absolutely real. The five major record companies are too cautious. Hugo's actor status has made them look away from the old world.
If you can sign Glory to Death and Hugo, then EMI's American strategy can open a gap, and Hugo's actor status has become a breakthrough. Of course, the most important thing is that Roger is full of confidence in the potential of this band. He can even feel his heartbeat. The last time he felt this way, Roger clearly remembered that he had just entered the industry. When the Beatles ~www.mtlnovel.com~ defeated four powerful competitors, and in the United States, the first to sign the glory to death, including Hugo, Roger can even see the competitor's face with astonishment. Thinking of this, Roger couldn't help but constricted the corners of the outline of his mouth, did not vent his emotions, and then adjusted his breathing lightly, turning his head to look at Henry sitting next to him, "So , What are your plans for the band?"
In Roger's view, Henry is a glorious agent, so when he asked Henry this question, he was asking Henry's attitude. He expressed a positive meaning, and then it was Henry's move.
But Henry didn't seem to hear it, and he was still immersed in the aftermath of the band's just-ending performance, as if the aroma of musical notes could be smelled in the air. Roger knew that Henry was vying for the initiative, and he was not in a hurry, so he watched Henry quietly. After about three seconds, Henry took a deep breath, and then sighed, "It's a beautiful performance. , Isn't it?"
In response, Roger smiled, "It's worth a report from the New York Times."
