At the beginning of a song, we often see four prefixes - singing, writing lyrics, composing, and arranging.

Sometimes the composition and arrangement are the same person, but most of the time is not.

There are also many people who are not very clear about the difference between composing and arranging.

Simple understanding...

Composition is to record a song in the form of words on paper, which is what we commonly call "five-line score".

Arrangement means converting these staves into signals, and through a series of complex ways, it is transformed into the ‘sound’ we can hear.

To put it more complicated?

Take a song as an example———Composition refers to the creator of the main theme of the song; arrangement is to give the creator of the song soundtrack, harmony and other special effects.

Judging from the current trend in the pop music scene, arrangement accounts for a slightly more serious proportion, and good arrangements can even overwhelm the brilliance of singers.

The composition is the part that writes the main melody, and the part that "lyrics" will appear.

The arrangement is mainly based on the whole song, and other instruments and sounds are added (such as drums, guitars, violins, vocals and singing). This process has a great impact on the expressiveness of the song, because the performance of the instrument can supplement and enrich the main melody sung by the singer.

For a song, the composer gives the skeleton, while the arranger gives the flesh and blood.

Although the composer gives rough outlines and style requirements, different arrangers often have differences in their understanding angles, arrangement level and appreciation ability of the work. Many composers only have the grasp and inspiration of the melody, while different arrangers also have different skills in how to reflect this melody.

Therefore, the finished product effects of different arrangers will be very different.

For example, the main theme of "Men Should Be Self-reliant", the arranger may compile it into "Loyalty for the Country". Although the taste is not far apart, the "small difference is a thousand miles away"!

Li Nuo selected the episode "June Rain" of "The Legend of Sword 1".

First of all, it's simple, most of the soundtrack part is piano.

Secondly, isn’t it almost June? It’s a good time.

He bought a lot of arrangement equipment and recording equipment online.

The recording and singing part is basically the common internet celebrity anchor.

As for the arrangement, a computer with ultra-high configuration, speakers, headsets, a MIDI keyboard, a professional sound card, an electronic piano, and professional arrangement software, etc.

A week later, it's complete.

Li Nuo had a test, but at the beginning he was a little restrained, but after using it, it progressed very quickly. Although he still couldn't achieve the level of a professional arranger, he...he has a system.

He doesn't want to become a professional arranger, he just needs to be responsible for the part he sings.

The accompaniment part can be downloaded directly in the system [Mall], and then recorded the song with singing skills. Although this is more expensive than downloading a complete music score.

He spent 50,000 yuan to download the complete arrangement of "June Rain".

The main purpose of buying these things is to deal with Qi Mei, Gao Fei and others, and future doubters.

When a writer suddenly sings, he will inevitably be suspicious.

snort!

Then I will start a live broadcast and write a song for them on the spot. Anyway, the arrangement software is so complicated that non-professionals can't understand it... I will only be unaware of it!

Then sing another song on the spot and you will understand the truth or the falsehood.

In theory, he only needs to download the main melody score and hand it over to a professional arranger, so there will be no potential trouble. But if he wants to the arranger, he may not say anything about the final effect of the person who wrote it for you is completely different from the original one!

Then I was crying without tears.

Of course, there are also some composers whose musical scores are already full, with flesh and skin, and you only need the arranger to polish it. Li Nuo can do it, but since you can download the complete music, why do you have to add to it?

When he becomes famous in the future and has more busy things, he may find a professional arranger like this, but it is not possible now.

He can only buy these equipment to install samples.

Otherwise, how did the accompaniment music part appear in a song that has never appeared before?

Who made it up?

Could it be that it appears out of thin air?

Therefore, Li Nuo could only cover up his ears and steal the bell.

Of course, he is not all fake. Although he is not the kind of top arranger, he can arrange the songs by himself at least!

After fiddling for a week, I recorded ten songs "June Rain" in a row, and Li Nuo finally finalized the most perfect and closest to the original feeling.

Well, it's not the original version, it's my version.

The original time and space "June Rain" is a song written, composed and sung by VACA. It was created in 2001.

In 2005, "June Rain" was selected as one of the interludes of the costume fantasy TV series "Legend of Sword and Fairy", adapted from the domestic stand-alone game of the same name, and was sung by me.

My version of Hu is much easier than the original version.

It's not just copied it as it is. After all, Li Nuo's voice is different from mine. What he values ​​is the artistic conception and taste of the song, which can perfectly compare to the original version, or far exceed the original version.

The songs written and sung by later Internet singers Xinran, who wrote and sung by lyrics, matched the original pure music, such as the most widely circulated songs "Back to the Dream of the Immortals·Millennium Fate·Variation", "First Rain in Lin'an", "Dream Weaving Clouds·Song of Liberation", etc.

After choosing the song that suits the most artistic conception, Li Nuo went to Miaoku Music Network and registered a newcomer account.

"Damn, the ant was actually registered when he went down the mountain?"

"Ants, are registered?"

"Ants go up the mountain...day."

"I don't believe [writer ·Ants Go down the Mountain] You still..., I just said that this can be passed, hum!"

But it hurt me so much that I can make my waist look for!

When Miaoku Music Network releases songs in the background, you can directly publish VIP downloads. Of course, newcomers generally don’t do this, but unfortunately... Li Nuo has his own confidence.

You uploaded the music directly and clicked on VIP to publish.

Meowku can freely choose the length of the audition part, just like a novel, there is always a free word count, no word count is charged?

Li Nuo smiled at this bad taste.

He chose to charge some VIPs at Gao Chao in one minute, from the beginning of the VIP charges, "I didn't give up and I won't leave you."

Humph, you want to hear it, right? Then pay to download it.

Although there are pirated copies in this world, the copyright awareness is still much higher than in the previous life. Moreover, things similar to those published on genuine websites will automatically enter the backend review of the copyright department once published, and the review will be OK in about one to three days.

The music should be faster because you will know if there is this single once you hear it.

He found that the price of downloading newcomer singles ranged from 1 to 3 yuan. For the first time, Li Nuo set a download fee of 2 yuan per song, so he went to the novel "Sword of Fairy" and the Q group to advertise.

———— [Dear readers and friends, the interlude of "The Legend of Sword of Immortality" written, composed, arranged and sung by Ant has been uploaded on Meow Cool. Please enjoy a feast with your ears!]
