Louis had just finished performing a piece of electronic music with a very catchy melody, which brought the atmosphere of the performance to a higher level again.
The size of the audience no longer looked like an ordinary road show, but rather resembled a small live house.
The connection between the songs was very tight. Jiang Yuan chatted with Paul for a few words and then came on again to accompany Arimura Haruka.
The pleasant sound of the piano combined with Arimura Haruka's singing voice once again won a round of applause from the audience.
The performances of several consecutive songs have different styles, and the connection keeps the audience fresh.
After Haruka Arimura's performance, it was Kim Junho's turn to perform.
Looking at the lively crowd around him gave Jin Junhao a great sense of security, and he felt that the possibility of surviving the next round was greatly increased.
This time, Jin Junhao's performance repertoire was prepared in advance after knowing the road show city in advance.
I specially asked the company's producer to complete the production of the new song before departure, which is also in the electronic style of EDM.
Especially after Louis' performance greatly aroused the emotion of the scene, it greatly increased Kim Junho's confidence.
After setting up the microphone stand, Jin Junhao began to perform.
It starts with a melodic rap, and then leads to a toxic chorus, accompanied by a sensory-stimulating synthesizer accompaniment.
Even though the song was sung in Korean, many audience members jumped up during the chorus.
After finishing the singing, Jin Junhao was very satisfied with his performance.
After Jin Junhao's performance, Louis and others all turned their attention to Jiang Yuan.
Although we have often rehearsed together in the past few days, we still know nothing about Jiang Yuan's song selection.
However, after listening to the demo of the collaboration song given by Jiang Yuan, Louis and Paul both believed that the song Jiang Yuan performed should not be inferior to these two songs.
At this time, the keyboard synthesizer that Jiang Yuan had been using just now was moved and set up in front of him.
After adjusting the position of the microphone, Jiang Yuan announced, "Next, a new song, "Faded" for everyone!"
Yes, this is the song Jiang Yuan is preparing to perform on the streets of Amsterdam to restore his reputation as the prince of electronic music.
How popular is this song? This song brought Alan Walker to the top of his career. The song became popular all over the world and he was called the leader by fans. He even entered the ranks of the top 100 DJs in the world.
Such an achievement can be described as terrifying.
Seeing Jiang Yuan place his hands on the keys of the keyboard, the whole audience was looking forward to the start of the performance.
The street lights in the square have been turned on, and a crimson afterglow hangs on the horizon, reflecting on Jiang Yuanyue's white fringed coat.
At the juncture of day and night, Jiang Yuan's slender fingers pressed the black and white keys.
The bright sound of the piano echoed through the speakers, announcing the official start of the performance.
The sweet and ethereal piano melody, combined with Jiang Yuan's excellent playing skills, instantly silenced the scene and staged a wave of preludes.
Louis and others sat on the seats on either side of Jiang Yuan, and couldn't help but start playing the beat to the prelude.
While Jiang Yuan was playing, he leaned slightly closer to the microphone and started singing along with the intro.
"You were the shadow to my light.
Did you feel us?Another start.
(You are a shadow in the light of my life, can we feel each other? Or is it a new starting point.)"
Singing soulfully, Jiang Yuan maintained the female key of the original song.
The superposition of buffs and the activation of limited skills made Jiang Yuan's voice ethereal and pure, as if coming from the valley, instantly astonishing the audience.
Even Lewis and others on both sides were no exception.
There was just one thought in everyone's mind. Fortunately, Jiang Yuan was arranged to be the last one to appear.
Jin Junhao also thought of an ancient Chinese idiom at this time, which is called throwing bricks to attract jade.
Even if it's the same style of electronic music, it's easy to tell when singing that ur aim is out of sight.
Wanna see us…….Alight!
(Your figure gradually blurs, lest our target be lost in the field of vision.
I just hope we can...still shine!)"
The audience's exclamation did not interrupt Jiang Yuan's rhythm, and he was already immersed in his performance.
The ethereal singing made the audience enjoy it even more.
Many spectators had already put their hands on their chests at this moment, their faces full of intoxication.
Sun Tao was also amazed by this scene.
After listening to the demo, and then listening to Jiang Yuan's scene where all the buffs were fully activated, Sun Tao came to the conclusion that in the demo, Jiang Yuan really just sang casually.
Now with this ethereal live sound, Sun Tao instantly felt that it sounded several notches better than the demo.
After Jiang Yuan said "Alight!", entering the chorus of the song, the changes in the accompaniment also made Sun Tao open his eyes.
Under the sunset, Jiang Yuan adjusted the knobs on the keyboard, outputting different tones and playing the pre-recorded audio tracks.
The superimposition of dynamic synthetic sounds and drum beats keeps the song ethereal while adding a dynamic feel to electronic music.
"Where are you now?
(Where are you now?)"
Jiang Yuan's singing still maintains the ethereal spirit it had at the beginning.
"Where are you now?"
"Where are you now?"
The same question is repeated three times in a row, but it is a stack of emotions, and it plays the role of a key word in the entire song and stirs up emotions.
“Was it all in my fantasy?
(Is everything just my fantasy?)"
The doubts in the self-questioning and answering, combined with the timbre of the electronic synthesizer, add to the dreamy feeling in the song.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Where are you now?
Were you only imaginary?
(Are you just a fantasy?)"
Jiang Yuan sang while his hands continued to operate on the keyboard.
Sun Tao, who had listened to the demo, already knew the follow-up direction of the song, and couldn't help but look forward to it.
On the accompaniment, the sound effect of a drop has the feeling of bursting the bubble of dreams and touching reality.
"Where are you now?"
The same question was sung again, accompanied by drum beats, more intense and bright synthetic sounds, guitar and other musical instruments.
This change in the song instantly caused the scene to explode.
While the exclamations of "wow" erupted, the audience's bodies began to move to the rhythm unconsciously.
"I knew it!" Paul also stood up and waved his hands vigorously, very excited that he had guessed this high point.
“Atlantis!
Under the sea~Under the sea!
(Atlantis! Submerged in the ocean!)"
Feeling the change in the atmosphere of the scene, Jiang Yuan just raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
But neither the singing nor the movements of the hands were affected, and he was as steady as a helmsman sailing on the sea.
"Where are you now?
Another dream, the monster is running wild inside of me.
(Another dream, wild monsters galloping deep inside my heart.)"
Jiang Yuan's singing remained calm, and in this blurred boundary between day and night, the audience in the square was already jumping to the rhythm of the song.
Even the passers-by were stopped in their tracks without realizing it, thinking that the performer at this moment would be a famous DJ from their country.
"I'm faded,I'm faded
so lost I'm faded…
(I have lost my direction, I am haggard...)"
The repeatedly sung lyrics still maintain an ethereal and dreamy quality.
Throughout the song, Jiang Yuan's singing seems to be integrated with the entire work, maintaining a fixed rhythm as one of many timbres.
But with the accompaniment, it still made the audience jump and twist their heads.
After the chorus ends, there is no interlude and it goes directly to the second verse of the song.
"The shallow waters never met, what I needed.
I'm letting go.A deeper dive.
(Those mirror flowers and moonlight, I have never seen them but I long for them so much)
Just let nature take its course and sink to the bottom of the sea.)”
The singing in the second section, while still maintaining an ethereal quality, gained some strength.
But for the audience, this is more like a break.
While sighing at the beauty of the notes, he looked intently at Jiang Yuan who was controlling the keyboard, looking forward to the chorus coming again.
"Eternal silence of the sea.I 'm breathing.
Alive!
(Endless silence dives into the sea,
I am breathing and still alive!)”
Jiang Yuan's singing is superimposed on the accompaniment, giving it a floating and flowing feeling.
Paired with the eloquent narrative, it seems to be telling a slightly confusing story, creating a dream-like atmosphere at the scene.
"Where are you now?"
As this line was sung, many of the audience members began to get ready, feeling eager to try it out.
However, at this time, the song did not directly enter the chorus, but instead entered the brodge section.
“Under the bright, but faded lights.
You set my heart on fire. Where are you now?......
(The light is bright, but gradually dims.
You ignited the fire in my heart, but where are you?)"
The bridge of a song is another melody that is different from the verse and chorus. Generally speaking, it plays a role in sublimating the mood of the song.
This song is obviously no exception.
After singing a short section, Jiang Yuan approached another microphone standing nearby.
"Another dream..."
This is a microphone with special effects, which gives Jiang Yuan's voice a strong sense of electricity.
But with the ever-increasing accompaniment, this processing is obviously very appropriate.
The dreamy electric sound and the gradually increasing accompaniment all involve the audience's emotions.
After climbing to the extreme, Jiang Yuan instantly returned to the original microphone, and at the same time, his hand movements were also rapidly operating on the keyboard.
"Where are you now?Atlantis.
Under the sea….”
The song that suddenly breaks away from the effects device has a sense of déjà vu, like a silver bottle bursting out of water.
Coupled with the pounding drum beats and powerful synthesizer sound effects.
The sublimation effect of the song's bridge was achieved, instantly turning the scene into carnival mode, and it was much more exciting than the first chorus.
Lewis and others also got excited on both sides of Jiang Yuan.
"I'm faded..."
Jiang Yuan continued to sing, and the scene turned into a large-scale disco scene.
The ray of sunset on the horizon has completely set, and the neon lights in the night are also flashing.
In this atmosphere, Jiang Yuan completed the performance of the entire song.
"So lost I'm faded."
As the last line was sung, the performance came to an end.
A three-and-a-half-minute song completely conquered the audience.
This caused the audience present who didn't know much about Jiang Yuan or had a rough impression of Jiang Yuan to completely wash away the labels in their minds.
The soprano singer was instantly forgotten. This performance, which can be called a divine song of electronic music, is considered by many to be as good as some of the top local DJs.
I never expected to see such a performance in this square.
After the end of the song slowed down, bursts of vigorous applause erupted from the venue.
Even Louis and others are no exception.
For an unreleased song to achieve such an effect live is purely due to the song's charm.
Many onlookers even started to boldly whistle at Jiang Yuan to express his love.
But in the end, it turned into an "encore" sound.
From dusk to dark, it is not too early.
But for the audience who had just experienced the carnival, it was obvious that they had not heard enough.
Faced with such a battle, Jiang Yuan and others also hesitated.
Finally, we discussed it together and decided to perform another song each.
The competition songs for this feature film have been recorded, and the next step is to simply enjoy the performance.
Singing only one song, for everyone present, it really felt like they had just opened their voices and warmed up.
After Jiang Yuan and others expressed their willingness to continue singing, there was a burst of cheers at the venue.
Jiang Yuan and Shang Yan'er took the lead and sang "We don't talk anymore" together.
By the way, I didn’t forget to promote this song that is currently on the charts to the audience.
Then Lewis and others also gave their own performances one after another.
The performance lasted for more than an hour, which was as good as some 90-minute concerts.
This time the performance ended, and the audience bid farewell to Jiang Yuan and others with satisfaction.
After the performance ended, Jiang Yuan and others drove back to their residence.
However, this time the performance in the center of Amsterdam caused a lot of controversy than the program team imagined.
That night, fragmented live video was posted to the local Internet.
There were even specific media reports on the recording of "World Song Wars" in Amsterdam.
Fortunately, before the program team left, they specifically asked the audience not to post the video of the first round of performances, so it was not exposed too thoroughly by Reuters.
However, the audio source that should be online on the next day must continue to be online.
Fortunately, after the popularity of the last episode of "Opera 2", the program team has gained a lot of experience in dealing with it, so they are not too worried.
After the performance, everyone slept deeply the next morning.
Jiang Yuan didn't wake up naturally until after ten o'clock.
There was only one day left in Amsterdam, so I walked out of the house with a cup of coffee and admired the view of the lake.
Jiang Yuan is thinking about what he can do on the last day today.
At the same time, the program team is preparing to broadcast the edited performance video to the professional jury for scoring.
At the same time, the live version of the music source playlist is also ready and ready to be pushed on the local Global Music.
While Jiang Yuan was thinking about the itinerary, Zhang Qing appeared with his assistant.
"If nothing else happens, we won't be able to return to China for the time being tomorrow." Zhang Qing spoke, interrupting Jiang Yuan's train of thought.
When Jiang Yuan heard this, he blinked, somewhat surprised.
