OfTheArtists 第一翻唱: 『浪費/調色盤』解說!
這裡跟大家快速回顧一下我的第一首翻唱:
在聽完 『我是歌手』徐佳瑩 翻唱的版本之後,我決定選了這首歌曲。她的演出真的很真誠,溫暖,並有一個很好的故事性 。 她的表演最終被她的前輩們選為那晚的冠軍(投票者包括唱將李玟)。
另一方面,原唱林宥嘉的唱風有一股男子漢般的失落感。你可以清楚地體會他沮喪卻苦苦帶著笑容的態度!
然而,LaLa(徐佳瑩)的風格像是一位少女回憶過去的遭遇。她以甜美的口氣詮釋了這首歌的前半段,而用強大歌喉,無所畏懼地將歌曲帶入情緒高潮。
聽過不同版本之後,我決定在YouTube頻道上翻唱這首歌。而將這首歌加入精緻的 『調色盤』 (Lala 的另一首歌)融合在一起,便是再好不過的開始。
在鋼琴的驅動下,『色調盤』這首歌具有輕盈的感覺,與舞蹈相似。同時也是美麗和寒冷的結合。
回頭看,我確實有很多技術上限制。很多時候我不得不把麥拉近拉遠來避免蘋果麥的破音。如果靠太近,麥也會產生水滴般的雜音。另一項須克服障礙是鋼琴聲的模糊性!當我從遠處錄音時,麥克風會收到背景中的嘶聲,使我必須採用Garage Band 過濾掉所有額外的噪音 。 總之,可改進的空間還很多。
繁忙之中,我得到朋友,Alex 的幫忙。他演奏了這首歌小提琴部分。他速度極快又精準,我希望我的歌聲也可以一樣的準確。
這是我第一次寫我對音樂翻唱的探討。回過頭來,我第一個翻唱的 『浪費/ 調色盤』已經是一年前的事了。我真的很高興。在今年的9月份,它也獲得了近乎700多個觀看。我會繼續做音樂和努力改進。

English Version:
Here's to quickly recap my first music cover:
I recorded the song after hearing Lala Hsu's version on "I'm a Singer," a famous Chinese singing program. Her interpretation was really sincere, warm and packed with a nice narrative arc— she ended up being crowned the winner by her peers that night (including the great Co-Co Lee).
Yoga Lin's style, on the other hand, has a sense of hopelessness to it. You can clearly grasp his manly yet despondent attitude, while Lala's style was more like she was reminiscing about a past encounter. She started the song in a sweet tone, but eventually shifted toward a powerful ballad. Her fearlessness drove the song to an emotional climax.
After hearing both versions, I decided to cover this song on my YouTube channel, and what better way to start off the channel than mixing LaLa and Yoga's interpretations with another great song of LaLa— "Color Palette." Driven by piano, "Color Palette" has a sense of lightness to it, similar to dancing. It’s also beautiful and chilling at the same time.
Looking back, I did have many technical limitations. Having used a simple Apple earbuds to record, I had to constantly pull back to avoid the mic being blown out. I also had to reduce the amount of ticking noise if I got too close. Another obstacle I had to overcome was the blurriness of the piano sounds! When you record from too far away, the mic absorbs all the hisses in the background; I had to rely on garage band to filter out all the additional noises— there was still a lot of room for improvement.
One support that I got was from my friend, Alex, who played the violin accompaniment of this music cover. He was super fast and precise to the point that I wished my singing could be as exact, too.
There you have it! This is a slightly more in-depth exploration of my first music cover. Before I realized it, my first cover 'Wasted/Color Palette' was already dated a year ago. I'm really glad that it's gotten around 700 views as of September. I'll continue to make music and improve.

OfTheArtists頻道悄悄邁入了一年半!
眨眼間,我已經在一年多前建立的YouTube Channel 發表了十個音樂影片!想起之前是因為被很多朋友的勇氣和才華感動才決定建立自己的音樂平臺。
如今還是跟當初的夢想是一樣的:創造一個空間可以跟大家分享及創作/玩音樂。
在幾首哼哼唱唱之中,我也能與網路歌手Rosemary, 小提琴家Alex, Leta, 和與我一起打拼的鋼琴家Yi-Yin一起合作。最初發的『浪費|調色盤』如今已漸漸的邁入700個觀看,而總頻道觀看數超過了3,500!雖然比起很多當紅平臺還是很微不足道,但想起大家肯抽空收看已經心存感激。在有朋友,家人的鼓勵之下,在途中也成長了不多。今年也繼續加油!放棄很容易,繼續會更難,但我相信途中是值得的。如果可以留下幾首讓人想起我的歌也不賴。
下一首(預計九月底)我會再次跟動聲樂器的Yi-Yin合作,用男聲詮釋2017 美女與野獸的片尾曲『How Does a Moment Last Forever』。Let's tune in :)
