Hou Xian's introduction

1997 came into contact with original music and began to accumulate a lot of original and stage performance experience. During my college years, I initiated and organized B2B Harmony Group, HBH Youth Quartet and Short Circuit Band (as drummers), and won the title of Top Ten Singers in Guangxi University Campus for three consecutive years.

From 1999, I began to contact MIDI arrangement and began to create a large number of original songs.

In 2000, her original single "Grey Rose" won the top ten songs of the year in Guangxi's pioneer list of lyrics, and won the most popular newcomer award of the year. Gray Ross won the record for five weeks in a row.

On June 5438+065438+ 10, 2000, HBH won the second place in the first "Vibrant Greentown" Youth Idol Competition, which was the only group in the audience to participate with its own original dance single.

Since April, 20001year, Guangxi Cable TV has been a special music guest.

In June, 20001,he won the first prize of Guangxi University Original Song Competition.

200 1 After graduating from college, I went to Guangzhou to engage in editing and producing advertising music, independently controlling the post-production effects of film and television music, and accumulated rich production experience.

In 2004, she participated in the China Star Competition in Guangzhou and won the second place in Guangdong Province.

At the end of 2004, the original single "Bridge Section" hit the pioneer list in Guangxi and won the championship for six weeks in a row.

At the end of 2004, the stage name was officially named Hou Xian.

In 2005, he came to Beijing to develop and became a signing artist of Dongsheng International Media. (Muhuo culture is responsible for publicity and promotion)

Hou Xian has a very self-centered musical concept and creative ability. The first album "Guwan" is defined as a full-creation album, which is called full-creation because all the songs of the whole album, from lyrics and songs to later arrangement and production, are arranged by Hou Xian alone. After skilled running-in with senior audio engineers in Taiwan Province Province, it was built with all its strength.

& ltBR & gt

& ltBR & gt "ancient": ancient style.

& ltBR & gt

& ltBR & gt implies that the whole album style is inherited in the bones? What is the value of revealing secrets? Yo, leftovers? What's wrong with the box? What's wrong with it?

& ltBR & gt

& ltBR & gt [Play]: Play with fashion

& ltBR & gt

& ltBR & gt is to use the most popular R &；; B, Hip-Hop, rap, Pop, electronic and other musical techniques "play"! PLAY-play gongdiao r&; B The concept of music freely runs through every note of Gu Wan.

& ltBR & gt

& ltBR & gt When Hou Xian meets Jay Chou.

& ltBR & gt

& ltBR & gt At first glance, Hou Xian's music is really a bit like Jay Chou's style, but after careful study, you will find that there are still many differences between the two. Jay Chou promoted the new trend of pop music, and also made R&; B, the musical style of Hip-Hop and Rap is integrated, which is very important for China pop music. Hou Xian's music is more traditional and classical, with a very authentic China style. In terms of genre, he also combined western music with national music and gradually created his own unique strings. In Hou Xian's own words: "Music is like a species. My music originated from Jay, but this is only the beginning of evolution ... I am following an era, not a person. " Being good at learning from others is also the source of inspiration for Hou Xian's music creation.

& ltBR & gt

& ltBR & gt The First String of Ancient Bay

& ltBR & gt

& ltBR & gt The ancient drama jumped from beginning to end, like the arrival of ten naughty children, for a whole hundred days. In one hundred days, the spirit of PLAY music, which meets the East and the West, has gradually brewed and grown in the carving of time and the cheers of fans. Lyrics, arrangement, production, producer ....., every link is like a secret chef; The recording studio is Hou Xian's kitchen; I hope the last meal will be a delicious meal that will intoxicate my ears. I hope that Hou Xian's daily efforts will be combined into full marks in music.

& ltBR & gt

& ltBR & gt This album called Ancient Night has a special meaning and also represents the formation of Hou Xian's musical style. At the same time, it also conveys many brand-new string concepts. Let's learn from Hou Xian's self-introduction.

Why is & ltBR & gt named "Guwan"?

& ltBR & gt

& ltBR & gt Hou Xian said, "I hope my music is like a delicate antique carved by time, because only works of art like antiques can surpass fashion! Become something more tasteful and popular. " Hou Xian will use his accumulated time to precipitate and carve out pop music that everyone likes to collect.

& ltBR & gt

& ltBr &； gt "Palace Carving R&; What kind of idea is "B"?

& ltBR & gt

& ltBR &； gt String Theory: Gongdiao singing is something in the bones of its own culture, that is, a musical trend in ancient rhythm, which is different from R&; B There are many similarities between the majors commonly used in music styles. In addition, the drawl and transliteration of the ancient palace tune "Yiya" are different from those of western R&; The transliteration skills in B are also surprisingly identical. So the two can be very smoothly integrated. With the addition of Gongdiao, the tune of Blue and White has a stronger flavor, with local oriental color, without losing its popular charm. Palace Model and R&; The combination of B-type pop elements can make the nation transcend tradition, make fashion return to the nation, and deduce something with its own unique style.

& ltBR & gt How to understand the word "postmodern"?

& ltBR & gt

& ltBR & gt Hou Xian said: Postmodernism is a feeling, and everyone has his own understanding. For me, it is one of the understandings of postmodern chords to use Gongdiao to be popular, to use classicality to reflect modernity and to use antiquity to describe the present.

& ltBR & gt

What are the deductive features of this album & ltBR & gt?

& ltBR & gt

& ltBR& gt Hou Xian said: According to the classification of songs, the tunes of the whole album are basically singing in Gongdiao style, which is more traditional with a little R&; B's transliteration technique is the biggest reason why Chinese and western styles can be perfectly integrated in songs. It is also your greatest feature.

& ltBR & gt

How is the music structure of this album & ltBR & gt arranged?

& ltBR & gt

& ltBR & gt Xian said: This album has various themes, such as ancient times, modernity, Renaissance, fantasy and realism. I have made many attempts, and the style is also Gongdiao R &；; Mainly based on B, it combines hip-hop, rap, pop, electronic and other musical techniques, hoping to bring you a rich musical experience.

& ltBR & gt◎ Interpreting the Legend of Chord Sound: The Combination of China Classical Literature and Pop Music

& ltBR & gt

& ltBR & gt The West Chamber

& ltBR & gt quoted the famous novel "The West Chamber", and in the way I understand it, used Gongdiao and R&; The seed of love,/kloc-a scholar who met a young lady in the West Chamber 0/2 years ago, and those who came back from the West Chamber after 12 years to dono. 1 are all empty. The emotional lines that embody the modern meaning, and this feeling of using the past as a metaphor for the present, may be Hou Xian's postmodern music style, easily accepted court-style pop melody and intoxicating artistic conception. Let the Romance of the West Chamber become the model of Hou Xian Palace R&; Represents a musical work.

& ltBR & gt

& ltBR & gt bridge section

& ltBR & gt originally intended to be a bridge segment in the movie, using flashback structure, the ancient song "Moonlit Night on the Spring River" with the feeling of old records at the beginning became a naughty R&, and the walls, classrooms and first love of childhood gradually emerged, followed by the rhythm of R & ampb pop music, which set off romantic childhood scenes one by one: the romantic encounter between grandparents, the old movie played by my father, and the cordial nagging of my mother. Bridge evokes a bridge buried in everyone's childhood for many years.

& ltBR & gt

& ltBR & gt Xiaobai

& ltBR & gt Xiaobai, originally a cute little white dog in Crayon Shinchan, later became everyone's favorite nickname. Cut to the chase, the voice of "Lala" brings out the pure and refined artistic conception of "Xiaobai". Small white key, simple major, simple rhythm and simple lyrics will make you catchy with comfortable rhythm in less than half a minute. "Little White" expresses the unique simple state of mind of "Little White" in pure love with a tone almost like a child. Xiao Bai's image is exactly the same. In the arrangement, with the popular rhythm, rap and colorful guitar, the complicated arrangement is made into a simple feeling, which sounds simple, but it is not.

& ltBR & gt

& ltBR & gt truant, extremely bookish.

& ltBR & gt This truant-themed song is the first in the music world. At the beginning of a private school's reading of Tang poetry, I heard the voice of a bookboy playing rhythm, and then the teacher's severe reprimand came out. However, the rhythm of beating sounded again, and a solo of "Sheng" instrument was brought into the naughty hip-hop rhythm style, singing lightly and freely, and the classics were mixed with rebellion, which showed the true thoughts of new human beings incisively and vividly. In a truant tone, he made a naughty "revision" of Tang poetry and Song poetry in his book. The word "truant" in the lyrics is actually an extremely bookish person who refuses to be bound by the feudal teaching system but pursues his own music. In ancient times, extremely bookish refers to people who specifically endorsed others and read books for others. The word "extremely bookish" breaks the embarrassing burden of "reading for others" under today's exam-oriented education system. It is a brave song to criticize the defects of modern education with an ancient background. In addition, the whole song has a strong Gongdiao color in singing and arrangement. Suddenly, a tap dance music with Scottish violin and applause added a special feeling of children's interest to the music.

& ltBR & gt

& ltBR & gt only loves Martians.

& ltBR & gt The popular word "Martians" spread from the Internet and became a classic narration in Stephen Chow's shaolin soccer. Vulgarity refers to a guy who knows nothing, but only Martians are in love. The lovelorn young people would rather find simple Martians than face the complicated love entanglements of the earth. It is a "new love song" of youthful frivolous romantic fantasy. The combination of light rock melodies full of Scottish style and electronic style, coupled with unpretentious singing, shows the helplessness of young people after falling in love. In arrangement, the smooth concerto of violin and Jinghu brought fresh and refined special effects. Soft-paced rap highlights the psychological state of teenagers' troubles and is easy to arouse everyone's voices. The combination of classical tradition and alien science fiction is unforgettable.

& ltBR & gt

& ltBR & gt Love in the East

& ltBR & gt Coincidentally, the abbreviation of "Tokyo Love Story" is also called "Dong Ai". When you listen carefully, you will know that this love is not that love. "Love in the East" describes "the love story in the East". It describes an ancient couple who secretly conveyed their feelings by riddles. Finally, they were bound by feudal ethics, and the young lady married someone else. They were heartbroken and separated. At the beginning, the palace was full of high and low notes, and the whole song was written.

& ltBR & gt

& ltBR & gt Goldbach conjecture

& ltBR & gt Is there any connection between the famous mathematical conjecture and popular songs? In this song, the two are endowed with a wonderful connection. The feelings of two people plus one person are complicated and confused, even if the master guesses for a lifetime, there is no result. Goldbach conjecture made a classical R&; B's bold attempt. This song begins with a piece of18th century western classical piano music, followed by a strong R&; B rhythm, even adding ng style at the climax, made a new attempt. Piano and guitar concertos jumped out at the door and the end, and with the singing of traditional Chinese opera, the whole song was full of sparks of bold collision between East and West.

& ltBR & gt

& ltBR & gt To Anna.

& ltBR & gt A melodious Russian organ plays slowly, which reminds people of Night in the Outskirts of Moscow, and then China's flute weaves a beautiful exotic love. In the lyrics, two people live far apart and can only express their thoughts through letters. Beijing on one side and Moscow on the other. Different cultural backgrounds have the same yearning. The whole piece is wearing an organ and playing a flute, which constitutes an ancient or foreign love song and is the biggest highlight of To Anna.

& ltBR & gt

& ltBR & gt Kicking Hall

& ltBR & gt From the mysterious opening to the bursting of the jumping hip-hop rhythm, coupled with the drum singing of Peking Opera in the middle, Kicking the Pavilion conveys the decisive spirit and national integrity of a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers with dramatic plots, which belongs to the songs with brilliant auditory effects in the album, and the quintessential Peking Opera deducts the harmony of Hua Dan cavity, while the climax part of the combination of true and false sounds, from the beginning of drawing the sword and kicking the door to the imaginative lyrics, conveys "the afterlife" More importantly, this year marks the 60th anniversary of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression's victory. It goes without saying whose pavilion Hou Xian is kicking.

& ltBR & gt

& ltBR & gt Nine times out of ten.

& ltBR & gt When in love and when breaking up, the lover's sixth sense intuition is accurate and strong in all likelihood. This is a love song about the gray mentality of parting, from the scene description of parting to the comparison of meeting and parting at the beginning of climax, with some lazy singing methods, R &；; B-style melody vividly covers up the memories of lovelorn love and the pain between two people. From the beginning to the climax, "happy sadness" is the biggest highlight.
