Chapter Five Hundred and Twenty One: Dream Dragon? Or the Age of the Republic?

Hotel, 2:00 pm.

After the song "Complicated" put an end to this TV debut, the recording of "THE TONIGHT SHOW" ended.

The band returned to the hotel without closing.

What was the live response of this song?

Well... I can only say it's OK.

Maybe the style of this song is different from the previous style of the non-closing band, or maybe the lyrical rock is not suitable for this era.

Even though this song was sold for 16 million copies in Ye Weiyang's previous life.

But after the band sang today, the response from the audience on site could only be said to be very ordinary.

The lyrics are well written, but everyone is obviously not interested in the song.

Although the aesthetics of the 300 audiences on site cannot represent all North American people.

But this not very good reaction also cast some haze in Ye Weiyang's heart.

He felt it was necessary to readjust the direction of his song selection.

Perhaps, songs that are too "old" may no longer be suitable for this world.

After all, the music scene in this world has been developing, and it has been 2023. Some European and American music that was popular in 2000 in the past may not be popular now.

After all, the preferences of the post-80s generation's music listening are very different from those of the post-00s generation...

Although Ye Weiyang himself is a post-90s generation between the post-80s and post-00s generations, he can also understand the gap in musical aesthetics.

After returning to the hotel, Ye Weiyang started planning the route of the band English first-level specialty for the non-closed band again.

Rock and roll must continue to stick to it.

But you need to think about how to shake and which ones to shake.

However, before he could think for a long time, he was interrupted by Eason from Warner, an agent with the same name as Eason Chan, the famous singer of Ye Weiyang in his previous life.

This Ethan was recently arranged by Warner to the band's work team.

After all, the band's record contracts outside Asia are signed for Warner, so they naturally need to arrange an agent to be responsible for the communication of the team.

The work Ethan is responsible for is also related to the album.

After he gathered all the members of the Breaking Band, he began to report on Warner's arrangements for the Breaking Band next time, under Liu Yunqing's sidelines.

"The band's first English album can be recorded at any time. Warner has specially set up a professional music production team for you. He has produced albums for many of the group's kings before. Professionalism is impeccable."

"After the evaluation of the group, this song "Complicated" was finally selected to go online without preheating. The group is not optimistic about the results of this single, but after the single is released, it will also be put into marketing and promotion."

"Now your main focus should be on the preparations for the first official album."

"Ye, you said last time that the album's songs were ready, so would you give me a copy of lyrics and music scores? I will submit them to the company for reporting. If there is no problem, we will start recording."

Facing Ethan's inquiring gaze, Ye Weiyang smiled awkwardly.

If it were before today, he might nodded with certainty and handed over the song he had chosen before to Ethan.

But today at the scene of "Tonight Show", after "Complicated" was a bit cold, Ye Weiyang had to reconsider whether the previous song selection was suitable.

"Ethan, I still have some small problems that I haven't solved. Let's do this. I'll give you a song in a week, and then we'll prepare to record the album. How about it?"

"Of course there is no problem." Ethan shrugged and agreed.

The songs of the band that are open are written by Ye Weiyang. It is normal for him to write them when he will finish the album and when will the album be recorded.

Warner couldn't force Ye Weiyang to write the song quickly, and in the end he had to follow Ye Weiyang's rhythm.

"Then I'll wait for your arrangement."

.....

In the bathroom.

Ye Weiyang stood under the rain shower head, letting the hot water hit his cheek, and while enjoying a comfortable hot bath, he was thinking seriously.

How to do the new album and how to do it.

This album is very important to the non-closing band, which almost determines whether the European and American development of the non-closing band will be successful in the future.

Not to mention that he also signed a bet agreement with Warner.

He must ensure that this album can be recognized and accepted by the current European and American music scene, and it must be sold well.

Then, there are actually not many choices for him.

There are only a few bands that are closer to the current trends in the European and American music scenes in 10 to 20 years before.

Menglong, Cool Play, Republican times, and a Lincoln band that has been prosperous.

If you relax the conditions to pop bands, you can also add Magic Red and One Direction (one-way).

Let’s relax a little more, just focus on the combination, not limited to the music style, there are also the popular Smoke Ghost Group with electronic music and Vicetone (sub-sound group).

Of course, Ye Weiyang eliminated this combination that was already unrelated to rock and roll without much hesitation from the selection list.

But the pop band's words made him hesitate a little.

In fact, One Direction songs are also a good choice.

One Direction is a British men's pop band founded in 2010. It can be said that it became popular throughout the European and American music scene from 2010 to 2015.

Become the favorite band for most young girls under the age of 20!

To put it this way, it has the same flavor as Justin Bieber's sudden appearance back then.

It is known as the favorite band of European and American teenagers.

Their popular rock music such as "What Makes You Beautiful", "Kiss You", "Live While We're Young" can also conquer a group of teenagers.

The band is still very young, and if you choose to start from the direction of pop music, One Direction's style is good.

But after thinking about it, Ye Weiyang still felt that the band was not that "popular".

Whether it is in China or the English singles they posted before, they are not as good as One Direction.

How to describe the song of One Direction...

It is not wrong to call them European and American TFboys...

It has reached the top in China and has written so many popular and connotative music.

"Welcome To The Black Parade" was also released in Europe and the United States, which can be hailed as an emotional rock hymn.

If the band is going back to do the idol style now, it would be a bit too unacceptable.

So in the end, after thinking about it, there is only one way to fit in front of the non-closing band.

That is the style of European and American independent rock music from the Republican era and Menglong, Lincoln!

They have many excellent songs, both pop and rock, which can be loved by rock fans and accepted by mainstream pop fans.

"Natural"

"Dream"

"Something Just Like This"
