Flying over the bubble era

Chapter 26 026. The other half
The next evening, Yoshida Miwa went to his work place to wait for him.

Iwahashi Shin came out of the store after work and saw Yoshida Mi and greeted the two at a glance.The colleague who came out with him quietly looked at the two of them with inquiring eyes.Neither of the two cared.

The two entered a small coffee shop one after the other, separated by a distance. After ordering, Yoshida Miwa said, "Now let's talk about the band yesterday, Shen Yi-sang."

"It's basically the same as I told you on the phone."

"That's it," Yoshida Miwa went straight to the point, "where are we going to form a band and rehearse for it? Next Monday—"

"Next Monday," Iwahashi Shin said, "Isn't there nearly four days until then?"

In this time, I have to form a band and pass the LIVEHOUSE audition to perform...

"How is this possible." Yoshida Miwa sighed, "Shinichi-san, although I also want to get a decent performance opportunity, I should also consider the actual situation."

"How do you know if you haven't even done it." Iwahashi Shinichi said, "I'm not just saying it casually or being impulsive, but I really thought about it, and I should try to form a band for you."

"How do you say that?" Yoshida Miwa looked at him.Even if it wasn't for this kind of rushing to the shelves, in her heart, she didn't show much enthusiasm for forming a band.

"After visiting so many LIVEHOUSEs recently, I have a deep sense of how popular the band is now. Now the fact is that if you play in the form of a band, you must have a lot more opportunities than you can alone."

"Besides, the trend of the underground music circle is also closely related to the future trend of the music scene." Iwahashi Shinichi recalled the music history and magazines he had read, "The unprecedented popularity of GroupSounds was originally due to the spontaneous formation of young people at that time. It was the band that caught the attention of the record companies."

After that, a slew of GroupSounds bands got the chance to sign and jumped to the front of the stage.

Just like when the Bamboo Clan was in the Walker Paradise, the scouts went there to find new talent. Now, when amateur bands have replaced the Bamboo Clan to occupy the Walker Paradise, underground bands are flourishing, and the scouts are This new trend will never be missed.

Iwahashi Shinichi looked at Yoshida Miwa, "So, this is a possibility to try based on the current reality. This interview opportunity is just an introduction. If you have no prejudice against the band …”

"Certainly no prejudice against the band."

"So……"

"But, Shinichi-san." Yoshida Miwa interrupted him, "I'm very picky about the members I work with. When I was in Hokkaido, I was invited by my classmates in middle school to join a band and perform in a local club. But , that team experience was quite unpleasant."

"Oh?"

"The concept is not compatible, and there are some places where you can't give in no matter what." Yoshida Miwa said, "The band is a place where personalities collide with each other, but at the same time they have to tolerate each other. Therefore, if you want to get along for a long time, relying on a good relationship will not work. of."

"You mean," Iwahashi Shinichi understood quickly, "respect each other among teammates?"

In other words, everyone should have two brushes each, but they should also properly restrain the light, and show their respective abilities, but respect each other.If it's just a good relationship and you can eat and drink together, that's obviously not enough.

"That's pretty much what it means." Yoshida Miwa looked at him, "It may not be too difficult to form a band, but it's not a little troublesome to gather such teammates."

"So, this time, I just want to try this possibility first." Iwahashi Shinichi was unmoved, took out a tape from his pocket and handed it to her, "Look at it."

Yoshida Miwa took it over, and there was a rental shop logo on the cover of the tape.

It’s a bit stingy to be stingy, but as an agent, my income hasn’t increased a bit, but I’ve been subsidizing a lot of money. If I didn’t have a serious job, now I’m afraid I’ll have to grow grass and vegetables in flower pots. After eating, the record is even more reluctant to buy.

Having said that, in the 80s, the most important reason why the record market declined so much was the appearance of record rental stores.After borrowing the record from the rental store, rip it.You can listen to music without paying, so why pay for it?

In addition, the large number of music programs on TV is also one of the reasons for dispelling the audience's desire to buy.You can hear it on TV, and by the way, take a tape recorder to rip it, why do you have to pay for it?

"Rebecca (レベッカ)?" Yoshida Miwa took a closer look, "A band?"

"It seems to be a band that only debuted in the mainstream last year." Iwahashi Shinichi asked, "Do Mi and San know?"

Yoshida Miwa shook her head, "I haven't paid much attention."

"If that's the case, you might as well take this tape back and listen to it later, it's very mature and full of style music." Iwahashi Shinichi introduced, "Of course, the main purpose is not to ask you to recommend music, but to ask you to understand their composition."

Rebecca is made up of female lead singer NOKKO and three other male musicians.

"Female lead singer?" Yoshida Miwa turned the tape over and over again.

"It's not very common for a female vocalist to match a male musician, isn't it?" Iwahashi Shinichi said, "But in fact, after understanding, male musicians are responsible for most of the creation, or it can be said that it was previously hidden in The black clothes behind the scenes appeared in front of the stage in this form."

Yoshida Miwa raised a little interest, "So?"

"The female singer's form is very common, but when it comes to female lead singers, it's suddenly a lot more unusual, right?" Iwahashi Shinichi explained, "In this way, it is easy to have the characteristics that distinguish it from ordinary singers."

If it is Yoshida Miwa who is active as a solo singer, then she is just an ordinary girl who can sing well.If it was Yoshida Miwa, the female lead singer of the band, she would jump out of the original circle and gain more attention.

"That's why I thought if I could form a band for you." Iwahashi Shin said, "There is no doubt that the lead singer is you, me, playing the keyboard is no problem, and I can write tracks, so there will be half a band. The band. Don't you like me?"

"Of course I like you." Yoshida Miwa did not hesitate.But he didn't forget the key question, "What about the other half? What should I do?"

Iwahashi Shinichi smiled, "Borrow half of them from elsewhere first, let's go to the show and see, and then we'll find them slowly. As for the band, it's not uncommon for members to change a few times."

"Shinichi-san," Yoshida Miwa couldn't help laughing, "you are really a genius."

"The scale of the performance is 250 people." Yanqiao Shinichi said, "How can I miss such a good opportunity."

　The name of the band is phoenix legend
