Make a comeback 428 take the initiative

After the five members of the Glory to the Dead band finished their performance, they didn't get Roger's comment. They saw Roger turn around and chat with Henry. The members exchanged their eyes with each other. But they weren't looking at Roger's "great", but they confirmed each other's performance just now.

In fact, there are still some omissions in the performance of the two songs, especially when Hugo sang "Second Chance (, because he didn't have enough vocalization, he was on the verge of breaking the sound several times, so he abruptly pulled it. return. Since Hugo has not received professional vocal training, although he pulled it back, his throat is very uncomfortable now, and the other members are more or less cautious and nervous.

Therefore, at this moment, everyone is ‘changing’ sights and voluntarily acknowledging their mistakes just now. After going back today, they are bound to practice the discussion again. If there is a chance to stand on a larger stage in the future, and the tension is definitely stronger than today, then the preparation and adjustment of the band is very important.

At the same time, Henry also opened the ‘door’ to Roger to negotiate terms, "First, Hugo is an actor, and his schedule can only be arranged after coordination."

Roger was a little surprised that Henry actually talked about these delicate and peripheral things first, but he didn't mind, and nodded directly, "This is inevitable." If you find a balance between the work of singers and actors, this is for Hugo. Very important, and also very important to EMI Records.

Hugo, who was standing next to him, had a headache again, because if Henry became the band’s music manager, Henry would have to communicate with Joseph about his work schedule. But Joseph is in such a busy situation now. It seems that Hugo is looking for An assistant is imminent.

"Second, the band's album producer must be determined by us." Henry said very loosely, but his eyes were staring at Roger motionlessly. Obviously, he would not give in to this request.

Roger did not answer immediately. Instead, he slightly reduced his pupils and looked at Henry. He realized that the first request was not as simple as it was literally. The hidden meaning behind it was that the band also had the itinerary for the band. The right to decide, even if the record company requires it, the band has the right to refute, and both parties can still bargain. Then, in connection with the second requirement, Henry's real idea is to let the band have enough autonomy to make the brand of EMI Records on the band as weak as possible.

In fact, this requirement is not unexpected, most rock bands like to join independent record companies, because this can preserve the band's own style to the greatest extent. EMI also knows this, so when joining EMI rock bands, most of them will be assigned to the following independent labels, such as the radio commander. The head office does not pay attention to it, but even if they have the strength, they can still find a way out. They Will try not to interfere with the style of the band.

But despite that, Roger did not intend to interfere with the style of Glory To Death, because the characteristic of Glory To Death is the most precious. If EMI is obliterated, then there is no need to sign; however, Roger did not intend to let Henry succeed so easily, he still had to take out the shelf of EMI records.

"No, it's impossible." Roger vetoed it directly. "There are so many producers, it is impossible for you to pick them casually. You are not beaten.

Henry was not in a hurry, still Shi Shiran looked at Roger, he was obviously waiting for Roger to follow. Roger paused, and then twitched his mouth. He knew Henry was a difficult one. His satisfaction with glory to death must have been seen by Henry, but the initiative is still in his own hands. It depends on how much he is willing to make concessions for glory to death.

"Do you have a suitable candidate? Tell me what level I can listen to." Roger asked tentatively about sex. Now that Henry brought up this topic today, he was obviously prepared.

Henry seemed to be embarrassed and raised his eyebrows, "George Martin (."

Roger chuckled, "Sure enough, I have a good eye." These two producers are veterans of EMI Records. George is hailed as the fifth Beatles and the band's most trusted album producer; and Norman once worked as a recording engineer for the Beatles album, and later became an album producer for the Pink Floyd band. He is definitely one of the top players in the industry.

Although Roger didn't say yes or no words, but he vaguely talked about it in this way, it was actually a kind of negation. With the status of a newcomer to the death of glory, it is difficult to use such a powerful character as EMI Records.

"Then... Hugo Lancaster." Henry seemed to give up helplessly, and clicked on the innocent Hugo standing beside him.

Roger looked at Henry quite unexpectedly, but Henry didn’t look like he was joking. He couldn’t help turning his head to look at Hugo. Although Henry mentioned it just now, Roger didn’t think that Hugo could have This ability is responsible for the production of the entire album. So Roger turned his attention to Hugo, and at the same time heard Henry say, "What do you think? Let Hugo be the album producer?"

Hugo feels inexplicable at this time. Although he is the main creator of the band before and now, because the band has never produced an album, Hugo has no experience as a producer at all.

The task of an album producer is not so simple. It is a very important role in the entire recording industry. The work content covers the arrangement of the recording project, training and guiding singers, organizing and scheduling production budgets and resources, supervising the recording process, Perform'mixing' and mastering post-production, select and arrange tracks, determine the style of the album, and even participate in the creation. To put it simply, the album producer is actually the director of the movie. Unlike the film producer, the work of raising investment funds is not part of the album producer's responsibilities.

Therefore, music producers not only need to have professional knowledge, but also need to have a keen ‘insight’ to market changes. Of course, this is also the reason why Henry hopes to'hand over' the producer to Hugo, because producers often formulate the album style according to market changes, but this is exactly what the band does not need. The band hopes to be based on their own Style to make albums.

Hugo suddenly felt the pressure on his shoulders. The album producer is a position that Hugo has never touched before. This is not a job that can be done only by courage, but also requires professional knowledge. Hugo is a halfway man. Hugo's "'men' layman" is still unavoidable, and for a while, Hugo did not react.

However, the other four band members changed their sights. Fokkin nodded first, followed by Pedro and Alfonso, and finally Neil. In fact, at present, the soul of the whole band is established by Hugo, and Hugo's ability to control the whole band is unmatched. Therefore, it is not surprising that the band members reached a consensus.

"No problem." Neil opened the mouth to answer instead of Hugo, making Hugo a bit of a stunned, "You know, we are not professionals, but Hugo's professionalism is not inferior to others, and Hugo The knowledge of our band is absolutely unmatched by others."

When Hugo heard Neal's words, he pondered carefully: Can I be qualified for this job? He took it with the courage of the moment, of course, there is no problem, but when he is really involved in album production, the lack of professional knowledge will soon reveal his shortcomings. Although he wants to be the band's album producer, for now, he is still not strong enough. Hugo is a self-aware person, he knows his strengths, and of course he will not avoid his weaknesses.

So Hugo raised his head, "I agree with Neal, but I don’t know much about the professional knowledge of the recording studio, so if there is a producer to assist me and we can complete the album production together, then I have this confidence."

"Hugo has the right to decide." Henry added that this is actually the result he expected and the result he pursued. EMI, as a top record company, has their professional producers to help. This is more pros and cons for the band, but the decision must be in the hands of the band. This is also Henry's promise.

Roger looked at Henry and didn't answer immediately, but thought about it. The issue of the album producer, although Roger also agreed that he could not change the glorious style, but let Hugo be the album producer, which far exceeded expectations. The Beatles were in their later stages. In fact, John Lennon and Paul McCartney also served as producers. Many rock bands are also like this, because their members are talented and powerful, but glorious. To death is just a rookie, this is a very risky move. Roger must be cautious.

After thinking about it~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Roger did not directly agree, but looked up at Henry, "Are there any other conditions?"

Henry chuckled, "The main issues have already been raised, and the others are just details, not important." Although he said so, Roger did not relax his vigilance. Sure enough, Henry seemed to follow him. Feel free to say, "The band must hold 25% of the performance rights."

Copyright, it seems that the previous questions are actually just appetizers. This is Henry’s core goal, but he described it as "unimportant details." Roger slightly closed his fingers and was about to answer. I heard Neil standing next to him and said, "All the songs our band performs are composed by Hugo. The lyrics and songs are all. The copyright is currently in Hugo's hands." In fact, the band also has Neil and Fu. Songs composed by Jin et al., but the quality of these songs is slightly inferior, so there is no registered copyright for the time being.

Neil’s words immediately changed the expressions of Henry and Roger. Henry was stunned, and then "showed" a lazy smile; and even though there was no change in his expression, Roger was still smiling. But there was a touch of depth in his eyes, obviously falling into'excited' thinking.
