The three common music styles of slow rock
HIP-HOP: BPM is about 90-110 beats, the music is very simple, but the sense of rhythm is very strong, Hip-Hop from the auditory and rap music is almost the same, just inside the "bits and pieces" more, such as mixing skills, beat changes, and so on. The lyrics aren't too restrictive. Lyrics don't have a lot of limitations. A lot of things can be expressed in it. There are some similarities with rock, mostly writing about life, such as criticism, catharsis, awakening, etc. Hip-Hop songs bring people a kind of psychological openness and **** song.
HOUSE: BPM in 130 or so, 4/4 beat rhythm, a beat of a drum, electronic music in the most easy for people to accept the tune. house and hip-hop is a completely different kind of music. house belongs to the electronica class (that is, electronic class), the house of the music style is very much, and some house music into a very obvious jazz and fusion music. Some house music incorporates elements of jazz and funk. The melody of house is not as beautiful as classical music, the rhythm is not as strong as hip-hop, r&b, and generally more monotonous. house brings people the enjoyment of the biggest still lies in the kind of feeling it brings to you - a little bit of psychedelia, but also has a light sense of dynamics, listen to the mood after the special pleasure, relaxation. I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that, but I'm going to be able to do it.
R&B: Started in the United States at the beginning of this century, the rhythm is strong, can be regarded as "black pop music". R&B is very much about self-emotion and originality or improvisation. This kind of music has a very obvious special style, that is, the use of similar Chinese folk singing mountain song "a call and response" form, like the beginning to give a person a kind of tension, crying, helpless feeling, and then it will be like in the comfort, relieve your pain. When listening to blues music, you will find that they all seem to follow the same pattern. The reason for this is that blues music is often played to a standard tune called 12 Bar Blues.
Why did slow rock become popular?
The music is avant-garde and rebellious, and the style caters to the local music culture and modern-day mentality;
Fashionable, exciting, moody, and atmospheric;
Suitable for recreational groups.
Note: The slow-rock bar
is the former discotheque ah.
It's just that society is developing, new things are constantly increasing, the previous disco rhythm is relatively fast, the current dance music slowed down the rhythm, but the drums are more shocking, there is a strong sense of impact. It's called "slow rock".
The so-called "bar" is where people can drink and relax.
The emergence of the slow shake bar
The end of the last century ~ the beginning of this century, in Guangzhou, Shanghai and other economically developed places, some white-collar workers gradually no longer like to those overly noisy disco, and in the overly quiet traditional bar can not boldly vent work in the depressing. The shrewd operators began to change the business model, so, between the bar and the traditional bar slow shake bar came into being, and quickly became popular nationwide, has become one of the most fashionable entertainment.
The concept of the slow-rock bar
"Slow-rock bar" is a new concept of the bar, which effectively combines trendy music and bar culture. White-collar workers in the city are under great pressure and need an elegant and not boring way to relax at night, and the usual bars are too noisy and noisy, which is not suitable for them. Slow-rock music has a little psychedelic, gorgeous, rhythmic, can encourage everyone to let go of their arms, with the relaxed and cheerful music "slow shake" body, lively and not too much, is a kind of moderate intensity of relaxation. This is what slow rock music is all about.
The characteristics of the slow-rock bar
It is different from the quiet music bar, because it has a distinctive character; it is not a passionate DISCO Square, because its rhythm is relatively moderate; it is not a performance bar, because it has an ambiguous mood and CLUB-style communication. The rhythm of the music in a slow-rock bar is very close to the human heartbeat, and when your heart vibrates with the music and your whole body starts to sway with the rhythm of the music, you will experience a feeling of being integrated into the music. If you can not only listen to the music, but feel that the music is flowing naturally with your heartbeat, it will be an extremely relaxing and evocative realm.
The three elements of a slow-rock bar
One, acoustics and stylish music
Two, branded drinks and passionate barmaids;
Three, ambiguous environments and moderate indulgence.
Don't want the gaudiness of the performance bar, don't want the emptiness after the crazy disco, then try to follow the music and slowly shake it
The status quo of the slow rock bar
Currently, the slow rock bar can be roughly divided into three major categories:
The first one is a typical slow-rock bar, where the music and the whole bar blend together, and the guests can dance near the seats;
The second one is a small stage (pool) with a small pool, and a small stage (pool) with a small pool. is to set up a small stage (pool) and with performance, lead dance category. Guests can drink and enjoy, but also at any time to participate in a variety of activities;
The third for the seating area and the dance area are independent of each other interactive mode, is a static in the movement, the movement can be static. Guests can dance at any time, but also quietly on the sidelines drinking and chatting.
Slow rock bar audio-visual (lighting and sound) style
Lighting effects LED, fiber optic, etc. for the background of the basic light, computer lights, color changing lights, and part of the computer effect lights for the main light, color bright but not shine, gorgeous but not exaggerated, with slow rock music style rhythm synchronization settings.
Slow rock bar sound reproduction requirements are high, and there is a unique style to meet the auditory characteristics of consumer groups. High and low frequency band levels are clear and distinct, the sound amplification is uniform, the middle and high is not harsh, warm and soft. Low frequency elasticity and fullness, sinking and moderate strength.
Slow rock bar regional division
Singing wine region: this is a static in the "dynamic" area, music in this area should allow guests to sit and drink listening to music is a pleasure, this area of the sound requirements are durable (not noise, not annoying, not boring), music rhythm and sound pressure can attract guests to drink and dance! The music rhythm and sound pressure can attract drinking guests to have the impulse to dance.
Dancing area: into the dance area guests need to be an auditory and tactile enjoyment, the main sound amplification is concentrated in this area, so the sound requirements of this area need to fully meet the style of slow rock, and close to the needs of DISCO. Electronic HUOSE music sound reinforcement sound effect should be thick, elastic, strong rhythm, layered. In the operation of a special requirement, the sound reinforcement can be transformed into DISCO style, low-frequency frequency and sound pressure change, so that the sound to achieve ferocious, hard and full strength of the DISCO style requirements.
Slow rock bar sound pressure requirements
Usually 7:00 ~ 9:00, the music rhythm is relatively slow, is a leisurely background sound reinforcement, sound pressure between 85dB ~ 95dB.
After 9 o'clock, the number of guests began to increase, the rhythm of the music is accelerated and constantly changing styles, the sound pressure is between 98dB~108dB.
Sound reinforcement in the slow rock bar is a uniform type, the maximum average sound pressure level is not less than (110) dB, the maximum sound pressure level of a single point is not less than (116) dB,
Sound field unevenness is not greater than ± (6) dB. (Medium-frequency 1000Hz-6300Hz low-frequency 100Hz)
1, the production of the Chill out with its objective Chill out has its own objective necessity, but for our country's situation, it has not yet developed to the point where
it is indispensable.
Club bar culture is only in its infancy, and most people are looking for a drink
Leisure, relaxation, out to see beautiful women, and other purposes. The real is like music in order to listen to music to go to the bar
People are very few, in our country chill out there is no existence of commercial value and consumption reasons. We are not like foreign bars
, which are private music spaces for those who like to be quiet and avoid the noise. We don't have that
and we don't have that reason to let these things that don't make economic sense take over an otherwise small crowd of bar goers
. The average bar owner will not do this, thinking of the high rent burden and staff salaries, thinking of their own still
need to ensure their own earning profit, so they will not be the end of the matter, engaged in these no residual value of the useless. Objective passivity also becomes the reason why this kind of music can not exist.
2, the so-called slow rock, just cheat people's business front,
This and a part of people's eagerness to make quick profits psychological esteem also has a certain relationship, outside the popularity of the concept of what slow rock
idea, began to play the theory of the slow rock constraints on consumers, so that consumers to buy is not the concept of a single, anyway, the money
to the hands of the real, bragging about it! The first thing you need to do is to get your hands on some of the most popular music in the world, and you'll be able to do it in a way that's easy for you to understand and understand. That's really a failure of slow rock. I have the same confusion as Mr. Wang Hai, progressive is really like this, why is it different from what I have heard, not only the concept is different, but also the accelerated beat and speed make me understand more and more about progressive. Are we getting old or is the world moving too fast to keep up.
3, we subjectively categorize slow rock as very broad.
Myself, I listen to some ambient world beat, etc. that I could categorize as slow, slow beat stuff, but that's just me being subjective. Also like me, most listeners who lack knowledge of music prefer to categorize things they don't know within something new, and it just so happens that slow rock is a new generation thing that people are just starting to get familiar with and understand. If you don't know something, you classify it as slow rock, and it's so much easier, and so many uninformed musical questions are solved. As long as it doesn't exceed 130 beats, it's all slow rock. Of course this is closely and inseparably related to our subjective limitations, the reason why mankind is still evolving, the reason why music is still in development, and the reason why there are so many things that people don't understand, things that are not clear, things that are mysterious to mankind. Often, can not be theoretically or scientifically explained, can make a judgment only conjecture, imagination.
4, there is no better listening
This is also the reality of our common problems, music is a profound problem, but the reality of the society's restlessness so that people can not have more time to listen to the quiet heart, imagine, do not have the time to be quiet at home to listen to the music, and expect to come out to play the mood to listen to the slow beat of the relaxation of the music well. I am not a stick to kill a boat of people, I believe that the real heart of the people will still choose their favorite music to listen to, really listen to, that part of the people, called the real love of music. This part of the people aside, the more part of the people can not be guaranteed, so downtemp can only be suitable for a few people to listen to things, and there is no more reason to popularize it.
5, cultural level is not an excuse
Many people think that what I said above is for the so-called "decent readers" of music, in fact, not, this kind of music is not divided into noble practice high and low. Just chill out needs you to have more sincerity and calmness, after you are tired, you need a kind of gentle music to ease the inner restlessness and anxiety. Moreover, modern people like fast food, they like to be busy, they are afraid of loneliness, and they choose to escape. How can they be kind and fiery inside like this.
I remember balala said one thing, he said in the past in Ojai, the people who can really understand the music are those who dance to the sweat of the folk brothers, only they can really understand the music. That's right, they were the only ones who really understood the joy of the dancers, they felt excited when they heard the music and they weren't pretentious. Because they truly appreciate the power of music to bring them joy.
Bingo!!!!
Whether it is the folk brother or not, senior intellectuals or not, we have not thought, and we really intercommunicate with the heart is a kind of sincere power, do not say that the slow rock you do not understand, because it is not with a sincere heart, of course, do not understand. This is very important.
6. The objective environment does not allow.
Except for the reasons I mentioned in the first point, another reason is that we do not have a place to listen to music. Abroad, the general chill out room is in everyone tired of playing in the rest place, similar to the lounge and other places, but look at our status quo, the bar too much intense competition, the original not much of the market share divided into a negative number, the bar people are not satiated, often looking at the sky to collect, and who has the leisure to invest in these more no one to go to the lounge it, even if the meal is not enough to eat, but also care about so much. Much, also really a little too that bar. !!!!!! Nanjing many bars is indeed immature, and Shanghai Beijing and so on compared to the gap, the market cake is so big, and really can not be wronged those who are struggling to run their own dream bosses. Based on this, I also think that slow rock is not likely to have any significant development in Nanjing, to wait for the market to start accepting and enjoying this form of music, I'm afraid I have to wait a few more years. At least you have to have enough to eat before you can think about ****productivism ah, otherwise it will not be a utopia.
6. Most people have a wait-and-see attitude towards avant-garde music
The avant-garde music I'm referring to here is very broad, and includes music that is familiar to us Chinese, as well as music that we are unfamiliar with, and which can be called avant-garde music. Because we are exposed to, understand the music information is too little, there are objective reasons for this, but the massive influx of Hong Kong and Taiwan songs popular also shows that it is not the people do not accept, and understand the really too little. Listening to less, can not buy, listen to some of the mouth songs every day, will inevitably sigh, "Alas, there is nothing to listen to," so continue, can only do into the bottom of the frog, only to see the sky.
In the lament that there is nothing to listen to, can only helplessly lament their own understanding of things too little, know too little information, but, in addition to lament or lament, the reality has not changed in any way, we have always been so lamented down, always unable to shake the reality of the tragedy.
This is also the sadness of not being able to surpass others.
A few years ago, Tang Dynasty's album was banned because it sang a song "Internationale" and gave a ban, and when the album came out, it was alive and hard to delete the song "Internationale", hyping Jian's "Eggs under the Red Flag" because the name is not respectful and delayed the publication and distribution. Even the big names are like this, you can say like you and me like a little ant people can expect us to do anything, empty talk also.
The above is a small summary of my opinion, although it is far from it, but because the current situation is so bad, it is inevitable that I have to make a few more complaints. In a nutshell, some music can't catch fire even if you like it. Utopia !!!!!!!
