Make a comeback 525 professional perspective

In the Amoeba music store, the meeting with fans of Glory to Death is not only difficult to scream and scream, but in fact, it is more of the "communication" of music. This is a very wonderful thing. When a band The members learned that the music they produced resonated with many people, and even became the backbone of many people. There are more than one young "girl" like Sally, which makes the band feel indescribable.

"Essence" **** pillar, isn't this a term that should appear on top singers like Michael Jackson, The Beatles, and Bob Dylan? How many people fall in love with rock because of the Beatles, and how many people because of the Beatles Michael Jackson was "fascinated" by music, and how many people understood the power of the spirit of "Essence" because of Bob Dylan...

But now, some people feel satisfied, resonated, and feel the power of the pillar because of the glory to the death music. This is undoubtedly the biggest affirmation of the musicians, which also shows that the direction of the glory to the death has been working is correct. !

In fact, the time spent in Amoeba music this morning was not long, less than two hours in total, but it was a brand new experience for the band members. When the car left Telegraph Street, the entire carriage was It looks very lively.

"Wow, did you see that turbulent'tide' of people just now? I wonder if the entire university is flooding Telegraph Street." Pedro muttered excitedly, his face filled with indissipation. The red'tide'.

"If Cal is only six hundred people." Fujin said Shi Shiran next to him, which immediately made Pedro depressed.

Hugo ignored the two of them, took out the band's album from his pocket, and then asked Samora who was driving, "Where did you put the pile of vinyl records I just bought?"

"In the first row of seats." As soon as Samora took the job today, Henry was directly pushed to the driver's position, but it can be seen that he quickly entered the working state, and everything was done quickly.

"Did you buy our album?" Neal looked at the album in Hugo's hands and said in surprise.

Hugo stood up and saw a brown paper bag on the first row of seats. It contained all the treasures he had just purchased. He took it and sat down again, "Yes." , Buy one as a souvenir. What, is it weird?"

"No," Neal smiled mysteriously and shook his head, and then took out an album from his pocket, "I bought one too." Originally Neil was worried, only he bought one. This behavior seemed too strange, so it was concealed, but he didn't expect that Hugo actually bought it, and it immediately made him feel that he had found a soulmate.

Seeing Hugo and Neil smiling sneakily there, Alfonso, who was sitting behind, also laughed, "I bought one too."

"And me." Pedro didn't know when he heard the conversation here, and he also said.

When Hugo looked back at Fujin, his calm eyes clearly told Hugo the answer: He also bought one. Sure enough, he is a partner of a band, and Dajia is so heart-warming, which makes everyone laugh.

Ignoring the noisy noises behind, Henry got busy in the passenger seat. He took out a list and pondered it carefully.

Samora’s “sex” character is a self-acquaintance. Although he is not familiar with Henry, he has also heard Hugo say before. In the future, he has many jobs that require cooperation with Henry, so he has a little attention. , Took the initiative to ask, "What are you researching?" Without Henry’s answer, Samora was not discouraged or worried about embarrassment, glanced at Henry’s list, and then said in surprise, "These are all professional List of music magazines?"

Henry raised his eyebrows slightly, "Do you know this?" He looked a little surprised. Humli originally thought that Samora was just an assistant that Hugo brought over to handle chores. After all, there is a big difference between an assistant and a manager. The manager is responsible for the communication between the agent and the artist, but he did not expect that Samora was obviously Much more capable than he thought.

"There are a lot of them at home." Samora smiled, her honest smile easily impressed.

"If you want to read these magazines in the future, Hugo will have a lot of them, so you don't have to buy them anymore. Reading magazines and newspapers is one of our jobs." Henry still lay in the passenger seat as if he had no bones. Here, even if the noise of the band members behind has no effect on him, it is rare for him to talk to Samora. It seems that Henry also realized that if Samora could take on more work, it would save him a lot of things.

Samora didn't have this kind of consciousness, and laughed haha, "I just read magazines. My taste in music is not very consistent with those of music critics."

"Normal, music critics are also humans." The views of music critics themselves have their own aesthetic inclination, but they are more professional, so true senior music lovers will have their own opinions, which are consistent with music critics. Or inconsistencies are quite normal.

"Are you considering which magazines to find to write reviews for the band?" Samora caught the point at once.

In fact, the reason why large-scale record companies are rich in resources, music reviews is one of them. When a new singer appears, there is no comment from any music critics. This is a very bad thing. The difference between a large record company and an independent record company lies in the huge difference in the resources of music critics and media they can contact. . To give a simple example, if "Rolling Stone" recommends the cover of a magazine, then it is obvious that the singer's attention is to take the rocket. As for the performance after the attention, it depends on the level of the album to see the truth.

Henry nodded, and shook his head again, "Yes, no, in fact, these magazine music reviews will be written, it's just a matter of time." There is EMI Records as the backstage, and Henry, a senior agent in charge, is honored to death. The band doesn’t have to worry about exposure at all. “What I am thinking about now is which magazines will publish the first batch of music reviews.”

"I don't know if these can be controlled!" Samora looked very surprised. He thought all the press releases were contacted in one go, and then sent out in one go.

Henry smiled, "These controls are necessary before the band gains a wide range of attention, and after the band has achieved a certain degree of success, it doesn't matter." Henry is obviously interested in teaching Samora-in order to share his work. So I went on to say, “Because we have no control over the content of the magazine’s music reviews, they say good is good, and say bad is not good. This is their profession, and we have no way..."

"But, aren't there any more familiar music critics?" Samora interrupted Henry and said quizzically. Music critics are also humans. In addition to their professionalism, they must be separated from each other and personal preferences. It is impossible to write music reviews like robots to be 100% neutral, just relatively neutral. What's more, in the entertainment industry, there is no absolute neutrality that does not involve any interests. There is always only relative neutrality.

"It doesn't work for them." Henry pointed to the band members who were laughing behind him. The glorious first album. He hoped that these critics would use an objective eye to evaluate it, praise it or criticize it. This is just the beginning. He believes that the band has the ability to withstand the feedback from reality.

"Leave aside the music critics, but each magazine also has different attributes. Rolling Stone is more conservative and more popular, but it has the greatest influence; "Rotation" is very "sexual", and is very important for alternative rock. They are also very supportive, but they have already praised the band once during the band’s tour, and their first statement is definitely not enough;'q Magazine' has unique influence in the UK and they also attach the most importance to rock and roll, but It's the faraway Atlantic Ocean..." Henry counted them one by one. These magazines have enough influence, but the first batch of music reviews of the band cannot be selected only by influence. Some have strong appeal in a narrow field. The comprehensive media of some non-professional music magazines cannot be ignored. This is a very important but also very cumbersome project.

Samora listened to Henry's lazily speaking. This was the real eye-opener. Unlike the perspective of fans in observing various magazines, the attention of professionals to magazines is obviously different.

The simplest example is "Rolling Stone." Although it is said that "Rolling Stone" is currently the highest-selling and most influential magazine in the United States and even the world, there are even many fans who worship the "Rolling Stone" magazine and regard it as the Bible, but In the eyes of professionals, the band Glory To Death is not suitable for "Rolling Stones". This is not a question of whether "Rolling Stones" is willing to promote Glory to Death, but that there is simply a'sexual' incompatibility between the two of them. The problem, even if "Rolling Stone" wants to invite Glory to Death on the cover, it is estimated that Henry and EMI will hesitate.

Although Samora has a deep and even professional understanding of music~www.readwn.com~, he has always observed from the perspective of fans, so at this time Henry told him a whole new world. He only I can listen ignorantly, but I can't say a word of response. But for Samora, it was a moment of enthusiasm for him. It was the first time that he had come into contact with the profile of music in such a real and profound way. This also convinced Samora that this job would be extremely brilliant. .

Glory to Death simply ended the publicity work on the first day of the album’s release, but the excitement of the entire American music industry has just begun, because just today, Glory to Death, a unique and shocking band, has truly entered the music. In the market, music critics, professional magazines, and veteran song fans have all cast their sights on: Did this band that traveled across the U.S. road tour originally made a gimmick or is it real?

And those media who pay attention to Hugo's actor status will naturally not miss the excitement: what is the strength of the band that owns Hugo? Is this serious or is it ‘sexual’?

All of this has been continuously heated and brewed under the hot topic of "Schindler's List".
