Chris Edwards quickly scanned the track names, but they were all ordinary titles.
Like Forever, Wood, Man in the dangerous.
"what's this?"
-These are songs I made while thinking of someone.
"who? "Surely you're a girlfriend?"
-Don't say anything terrible. One of them is a song I made while thinking of you.
"Oh, Shit. So what should I do? "Can I give you some feedback?"
-no.
Han Si-on's next request was strange.
-I wish I could let the people who inspired me hear that song.
"Who is the owner of inspiration?"
-You'll understand when you hear it, right? It should be fun like that.
"What if I get it wrong?"
-I made the wrong song.
It was a statement that conveyed strong confidence and confidence.
Chris Edwards said that Asians are shy, but Han Sion is a bit different.
Well, if you have that much talent, it's strange that you're shy.
In the end, Chris Edward nodded with deep curiosity.
"okay. Hang up. "I need to listen to the song."
-wait for a sec. I still have something left to say.
"Let's do that when I can properly find the owners of the song."
I hung up the phone and tried to put on my work headset, but then stopped.
Judging from the use of the words 'master of inspiration', it is highly likely that this is a song in which the emotional area is more important than the technical aspect.
I turned on the desktop connected to the speaker and checked the track information.
The length of each track was not that long.
The shortest one is 58 seconds.
The longest is 1 minute and 21 seconds.
Although it is said that the length of modern music is becoming shorter, it is still too short to be considered a complete song.
By that time, the desktop had finished booting.
Chris Edwards had a strange expression while listening to the first track,
I knew it as soon as I heard it.
'… … This is my song.'
I think it would be more appropriate to think of it as the source of the song rather than the song.
Because I'm frantically wondering what kind of song I'll make with this source.
But I didn't know why I felt this way.
It's clear that the song was written just for him, and he's bursting with inspiration.
In the end, Chris Edwards gave up his worries and moved on to track 2.
Track 2. Wood.
After listening for about 30 seconds, Chris Edwards made a shocked face.
'This was hit by Lucid Bean himself!'
There is no doubt that this song was composed and performed by Lucid Bean, a leading figure in punk music.
Otherwise, there would be no way for Lucid Bean's unique soul funk to be present to this extent.
However, Chris Edwards owns all of Lucid Bean's albums.
Unless Hansion hacked Lucid Bean's computer, this is a song composed by Hansion.
But there was a strange part.
Lucid Bean was a singer-songwriter famous for using his own face as the cover art of his albums.
He once said in an interview that he wanted to show aging faces and aging music together.
Rather than being a rock star who burned hot for a moment, I want to be remembered as a musician who faded away with time.
So, for the latest album, the cover art featured a brightly smiling face of a man in his late 50s.
The album name was also <50th>.
Here's where the strange part occurred.
Chris Edwards has clearly heard Lucid Bean's latest music and seen the latest cover art.
I can't even remember the last time I played an album he released when he was young.
Nevertheless, listening to the song
I don't exactly remember the cover art from my vague memory, but the image is like that.
This phenomenon was the same in track 3.
'Jankos Greenwood.'
While listening to track 3,
But this time too, it is a young face.
Even though I don't know what Jankos Greenwood's younger days were like.
"… … ."
After listening to all eight tracks, Chris Edward immediately called Hansion.
-how is it?
"Am I the first one?"
-that's right.
"The others are Lucid Bean, Jankos Greenwood, Moskos, Eric Scott, Roots Robbie and Mary Jones. The last one is a bit confusing. Donald McGirth?"
-answer. But why were you confused about the last one?
"I can't remember my younger days."
-Oh, that's right. There is almost no difference in McGus' music between when he was young and now. What a great guy. He's the god of the blues.
Through Han Zion's words, Chris Edward confirmed that his guess was correct.
Han Sion expressed the young days of big names in the music world with deep roots.
how? why? For what purpose?
There were so many things I wanted to ask, but I couldn't decide where to start.
In the end, Chris Edwards decided to get more hints.
"How can I deliver it to you?"
-Just listen naturally. Instead, I need a childish story.
"What?"
-A young musician says he became you in a dream. So, as soon as I woke up from my dream, I recorded what I was playing excitedly in the dream, but I was unable to compose any more than this.
"What do you want in the end?"
-I want you to make a song using this source.
"Is that what you call it?"
-I will arrange and sing the Korean version. Tell them to do their own version of the native language. You can delegate it to HR.
"So co-composing?"
-of course.
"What, are you planning to conquer the world with music?"
-With this? No way. I'm just selling some memories. Except for Roots Robbie, they are all stars from the past, right?
"What are you talking about. "Jankos Greenwood's latest album is No. 1 on Billboard."
-It's not album 200. Isn't it #1 on the jazz charts?
Chris Edwards was so dumbfounded that he laughed.
Even though the jazz chart is a minor chart that falls short of the Hot 100 or Album 200, it is still a major chart.
Si On Han sees it too easily.
What's even more absurd is that this attitude isn't strange.
-Don't take it too seriously, but convey it lightly.
But Chris Edwards never took it lightly.
Perhaps some of these songs could have been nominated for the Grammy Awards.
Those were good songs.
It may vary depending on how the musicians handle this source.
'Wait, then me?'
How should I approach the song
The source material is clear, but the degree of freedom in production is too high.
First, you have to decide on the genre, and then select and place the instruments again.
It might not be sampling, but it had to go through a retake process.
At that moment, Chris Edwards got goosebumps.
I realized the meaning of the 8 tracks created by Hansion.
"Could this be the inspiration of your youth?"
-Oh, right.
It is said that soccer players think this way when they reach their mid-30s.
Now I understand what soccer is, but my body doesn't follow me.
I wish I had known this when I was younger.
The same goes for musicians.
Although immature in his rookie days, he is hot.
I don't know how to make proper music or control my inspiration.
It just moves forward with a hot flame that burns like the sun.
However, the heat does not last forever and eventually cools down.
That's why older musicians miss the burning inspiration.
Now I know what music is, but the inspiration is gone.
If only I could regain the passion of my youth, I would be able to create amazing songs.
However, an adult who had become skilled at everything could not imitate the boy's fresh and clumsy courage.
But now.
Si On Han was trying to share it.
"… … "How is this possible?"
-Because I listened to and learned their music.
"So what about my track? What am I? "Is this what other people think my childhood felt like?"
-no. I wrote it with a future feel, telling you to grow up.
"future?"
-If you like it, use it without worrying about this or that.
Yes, what Si On Han said is correct.
If good music is created, you should use it.
There is no need to dismantle it through the logic of reason.
I'm sure the musicians who received this song will soon make the same decision as me.
After making that decision, Chris Edward became playful.
"But... These people are huge stars and rich people. "Wouldn't it be too hard for me to deliver this song?"
-okay?
"I will have to travel all over the country, how will I compensate for this?"
-hmm. Why not call Alex? Instead, the first track is Digging.
"what? hey!"
In the end, Chris Edwards was unable to even get his money's worth and promised to make it happen.
It was true that Si On Han's request was an unreasonable request.
But not now.
Chris Edwards was working on a project with HBO, which was to film a kind of documentary.
In the form of a conversation between the current generation of musicians and musicians of previous generations.
So, it is not difficult to meet those who have been requested by Han Si-on.
But what was a little strange was that this project with HBO was secret.
I only told Han Si-on that I had to return to the United States for a project, but did not reveal what it was.
'I think I definitely know.'
But then Chris Edward shook his head.
It doesn't matter anyway.
What is important is the result that this music will produce.
It started at Han Shi-on's request, but his own heart began to pound.
Chris Edward stood up and checked the schedule, his eyes shining.
Two days later, I meet Jankos Greenwood.
How would a living pop jazz master listen to Han Si-on's music?
Will he also reminisce about his younger days?

Choi Se-hee, who has Drop Out as her main base and sells three months and a hundred days as a sub, was feeling conflicting feelings these days.
First of all, I feel so good.
Because Drop Out's single
Music that gave me goosebumps as soon as I heard it.
A music video that goes perfectly with the song.
Dropout is the God-given idol who can pull it off.
It is a perfect trinity.
So it felt really good.
Especially since NOP fans who were talking about being out of business are now shutting up.
But at the same time, I felt bad.
This was because Sedalbaekil was eliminated from Coming Up Next.
Of course, the people at the table accepted Take Scene's victory as a foregone conclusion.
Because there was a ton of evidence that Takesin was preparing for his debut.
So being eliminated itself was not a bad thing.
What made Choi Se-hee feel really bad was that the next three months disappeared.
As soon as Coming Up Next ends, you can't find it in any articles, media, or content.
He even disappeared from the indie scene, where he was active for about two weeks.
'This is a hundred percent.'
It was beyond Choi Dae-ho's eyes.
I don't know what happened.
So Choi Se-hee was eagerly waiting for 18:00 today.
Because it is the day that the Han Sion episode of
When I first saw the teaser video, I was shocked, but I also felt fortunate.
Just because you appear in the hottest YouTube content doesn't mean that your future activities are completely blocked.
furthermore… … .
'Considering the nature of the program, it means that they will ask sensitive questions without hesitation.'
There may be clues to guess what kind of situation Han Si-on and Sedal Baek-il were in.
As time passed, the clock showed 18:00.
The video was released.
