Chapter 377: Chapter 356: Changing Affection_1

Two days later, on the 25th, Sun Yaohuo entered the recording studio to officially record “Ten Years”.

Of course, the recording studio belonged to the company.

Starlight started as a music company, and although it also produces films now, its music equipment remains top-notch.

An outsider may think that all recording studios are somewhat similar, but they are actually very different.

For instance, matters like room reverb configuration, sound insulation setup, and sound absorption setting etc.

The better the recording studio, the more its details are carefully considered, even including the size of the room, which is also strictly planned.

We ordinary folks, when recording songs with singing software, often feel an abysmal difference between us and professional singers.

And when we use apps like Everyone’s Singer, we get the feeling that the boys and girls in there are not only good looking but also sing well…

But it’s not always that exaggerated.

The versions of songs released by singers are all produced in recording studios.

Some mediocre singers basically only become proficient with sound cards, and even in live performances, they are just a little superior to the most skillful singers found in karaoke bars.

A person with a decent singing ability can show good results after being meticulously worked on by a professional sound engineer in a recording studio.

In fact, they may not even need to be autotuned.

The recording studio is such a magical place.

Of course, this only applies to average singers.

An excellent singer is indeed incomparable to an ordinary person.

You can think of whoever you want, as this is quite subjective.

However, no matter how good the recording studio is, if the singer does not have enough skills, they won’t be chosen by Lin Yuan.

The reason Sun Yaohuo is trusted by Lin Yuan is the proficiency of his skills. freewebnσvel.cøm

Today, as soon as Sun Yaohuo started recording, Lin Yuan was taken aback.

“If these two words did not tremble, I would not have realized that I’m in pain, saying it out loud is nothing more than a break-up…”

Breath, pitch, language sensitivity, and emotion are all criteria for evaluating singing skills.

If there were a grading scale for singing skills, with 100 being the maximum score, Lin Yuan would have given Sun Yaohuo a 75.

In comparison, Jiang Kui would score at least 80.

But today, the singing skills that Sun Yaohuo demonstrated have exceeded 80.

He has improved!

Lin Yuan is 100% certain that during this lengthy period in which he has not been working with Sun Yaohuo, Sun Yaohuo must have been quietly putting in hard work; otherwise, Sun Yaohuo could never have made such great progress.

Without a certain amount of effort, such a remarkable improvement would not be possible.

If you don’t have a specific concept of improvement in singing skills, you can listen to the level of singing at the early stage of Zhang Jie’s career and compare it with his performance at later live events…

After a few takes, it felt pretty smooth.

The recording engineer said: “This song doesn’t have high requirements for vocal range or singing skills. The phrase ‘Why not when leaving’ in the lyrics requires a major sixth interval change in resonance location. You just treated it too evenly.”

Sun Yaohuo just nodded.

The main points of this song are intonation, detailing, and emotional transition. He has basically mastered it in a few days of practice.

He looked at Lin Yuan: “Do you have any suggestions, junior?”

Lin Yuan usually likes giving suggestions, but he seems to not have interrupted his performance today.

After some consideration, Lin Yuan said: “Sincerity.”

Sun Yaohuo could get reminders about technical aspects from the recording studio, and he was professional enough, but the understanding of the emotion had to come from the singer himself.

Sincerity…

Taken aback, Sun Yaohuo paused for a moment, then nodded and said, “I’ll try.”

Soon enough, a new round of recording started.

Sun Yaohuo slightly closed his eyes, tilted his head slightly lower with his right hand covering the headset, and his slightly husky voice rang out, “If these two words did not tremble, I wouldn’t realize I’m in pain…”

The recording engineer was stunned. The atmosphere suddenly became somewhat melancholy.

However, Lin Yuan’s eyes lit up just the slightest.

“If there are no hopes for tomorrow, holding hands is like touring…”

There was a hint of bitterness in Sun Yaohuo’s voice.

The song is a typical love song, but it reminded him of the conversation he had with his junior a few days ago.

He was ready to give up on music, but his junior urged him to persist.

Would he keep on singing without his junior’s insistence?

Sun Yaohuo didn’t know.

He just found himself somewhat upset and reluctant.

The woman in the lyrics reminded him of what music meant to him.

“If a hug cannot last, why not enjoy and shed tears while leaving…”

All emotions seemed to be embedded in the lyrics.

Sun Yaohuo’s voice wasn’t loud but had an endearing power at this moment:

“Ten years ago, I didn’t know you, you weren’t mine, we were still next to a stranger, walking past a street that gradually became familiar, ten years later, we were friends…”

Sun Yaohuo’s eyes turned red.

He didn’t know whether he was moved by the cliché love story from the lyrics, or whether the sadness stemmed from his imagination of giving up music a few days ago and what he might face ten years later.

“Only after years of being friends with you, did I realize that my tears are not for you alone, but also for others.”

In the end, the man misses the woman.

Sun Yaohuo sang while feeling lost. Uncontrollably, tears began to stream down his face.

When he snapped out of it, he suddenly saw that the staff in the monitor room were giving him a thumbs up.

“That’s it.”

Lin Yuan nodded at him with a smile.

Sun Yaohuo quietly clenched his fists and forced a grin.

Is this the sincerity?

There is no need for him to go through a decade-long love affair for one song. No singer can achieve this.

If they do, things could take a turn.

The so-called sincerity is merely letting their emotions be conveyed through the music.

The woman can be taken as a symbol in the face of these emotions, which can be a woman, or anything else –

As long as it is something you can’t bear to leave yet can’t resign to holding onto.

What Sun Yaohuo thought was the music, he didn’t know that this expression of emotion resembled a phenomenon in performance called transference.

For example, when an actor needs to perform a crying scene, if they can’t cry, they can mobilize their emotions by thinking about something sad.

And Lin Yuan’s intention is to locate the emotional fulcrum for Sun Yaohuo.

But Lin Yuan couldn’t tell him straight out.

If he did, simply by telling Sun Yaohuo to think of something sad would seem too forced.

This kind of guidance on emotions should be natural.

As the facts proved, Sun Yaohuo is emotional, and having rich emotions is actually a good thing for singers, actors, and many other fields of art.

Lin Yuan can genuinely praise:

Among all their collaborations to date, “Ten Years” is the most perfect work that Sun Yaohuo has ever recorded.

Only when you touch your own heart, can you touch your audience’s.
