Chapter 36 About Dreams
They left the restaurant together, and now on the side of the road, everyone first called a taxi for Daikoku Moji, Kawashima Mika and Utoku Keiko.

At the wine table just now, Akiyama Kazuki also had a few conversations with Utoku Keiko. The sister's temper made Akiyama Kazuki couldn't help but associate it with Itai Izumi.

The voice is as soft as the voice, and there is a feeling of being in peace without fighting or grabbing. It is even quieter than Banjingquan. Akiyama Kazuki has at least seen Banjingquan playful, and this person is really as indifferent as a chrysanthemum.

After seeing off a few ladies, Akashi Masao and Matsumoto Takahiro felt that it was not enough, so they took Oda Tetsuro and Uesugi Noboru to go to Kabukicho for another stall.

Oda Tetsuro couldn't help but had to follow the two of them to another place again, but Uesugi Noboru politely declined the invitation, and Akashi Masao and the others didn't mind, knowing that his character was like this.

Only Akiyama Kazuki and Shangshan Sheng were left standing by the side of the street, and fell silent for a while.

"I actually admire Akiyama-kun." Uesugi Noboru, with long hair, suddenly said.

"Eh?" Kazuki Akiyama, who was about to break the dull atmosphere, was a little surprised when he heard Noboru Uesugi speak.

Standing on the side of the empty street, Noboru Uesugi breathed out, "Akiyama-kun can insist on singing the songs he wants, without considering the market or the company's strategy."

Kazuki Akiyama's ears were a little red when he said this, not because he insisted, but because he didn't have too many choices at the time, and it was also a problem that newcomers didn't have to think about transformation.

"Why did Uesugi-san say that?" Kazuki Akiyama didn't understand why Noboru Uesugi would sigh like this. Could it be that the song he is singing now is not what he wants?
Wearing a black jacket, Noboru Uesugi raised his head, looking cool, "The current WANDS is more like an idol group to me, all singles are for the sake of selling.

What does Akiyama-kun think about music and business? "

Hearing Uesugi Noboru's question, Akiyama Kazuki finally knew where he was struggling. This was a collision between ideals and reality.

Kazuki Akiyama himself can't say well about this issue, "In my opinion, music is first and foremost to be shared. Of course, I hope that more people will hear the song I created, and I also hope to have more likes and get more people. Approved."

After hearing Akiyama Kazuki's answer, Uesugi Noboru smiled and did not comment.

"I don't know what style Uesugi-san's ideal music is?" Kazuki Akiyama knew that Noboru Uesugi's understanding of music was different from his own, but he still couldn't help asking the question in his heart.

"Grunge rock." Noboru Uesugi stopped kicking the stones on the side of the road, turned his head and looked at Kazuki Akiyama and said seriously.

"Grunge rock?" Unexpectedly, the music style that Noboru Uesugi wanted to do most was grunge rock. Kazuki Akiyama didn't know much about this style, except that it was a mixture of hardcore punk and heavy metal.

But obviously this style is far from the current J-pop and pop rock of Being, and grunge rock has almost no audience in RB at this time.

It is almost impossible for Nagato Taiko's businessman nature to agree with Noboru Uesugi's transformation demands.

Instead of doing J-pop, which can make money almost as long as you release songs, and go for grunge rock that no one cares about, it is impossible for any for-profit record production company to make such a choice.

"My favorite musician is Kurt, the frontman of Nirvana, who has been doing grunge since day one.

Wandering the streets, sleeping in bridge holes, fishing for small fish in the river to satisfy his hunger, none of these could make him give up his grunge.

Grunge is his religion, I'm not as good as him. "

After finishing speaking, Uesugi Noboru sighed, a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes.

For Uesugi Noboru's self-doubt, Akiyama Kazuki can't give any advice, and even compared with Uesugi Noboru, he can't be regarded as a pure musician.

"Go back, I should go too." After speaking, Uesugi Noboru waved his hands and turned to leave, putting his hands in the pockets of his black jacket, his long hair blown by the wind, like a traveler wandering far away.

Looking at the back of Uesugi's departure, Akiyama Kazuki admires those pure people who are not lost in the feasting and feasting, and always stick to the dream in their hearts. They have a pure heart.

But it is not suitable for him, he has no lofty ideals, and he has no dreams that need to compromise with reality.

He just wants to stand on a high place to appreciate its unique style in this era, leave a trace of his own existence, and finally live an unfettered life with someone to accompany him, so far he has no regrets.

in dreams and hopes

ゆい中へ我は消えて

in glory

ok ta no sa

I'm drifting away

at present ni あ る
reality in front of you

Now it's cold day after day

but indifferently for several days
I wo あしらってく
laugh at me

In Tokyo, the "Metropolis", not everyone is qualified to talk about ideals.

Kazuki Akiyama came to the recording studio of Being headquarters today to ask Tetsuro Oda for help. When he had dinner together last time, he mentioned to himself about the next single.

At that time, I also talked about some of the troubles I encountered in the song selection, and Oda Tetsuro said that we can discuss it together.

It's not that Kazuki Akiyama came here specially today, and wanted him to refer to him for himself.

When I came to the recording studio, Oda Tetsuro was already waiting there,
"Oda-san has troubled you this time." As he spoke, Akiyama Kazuki had already handed the lyrics and music of two songs to Oda Tetsuro.

Oda Tetsuro took the manuscript paper, "I also want to see which two songs Akiyama-kun has prepared for his next single, and I'm sure it won't disappoint."

After speaking, Tetsuro Oda began to carefully read the lyrics and music of the two songs. After a few minutes, Tetsuro Oda closed his eyes after reading the lyrics and music.

Opening his eyes again, Oda Tetsuro said with some emotion, "Akiyama-kun is indeed a genius, both songs are excellent, more than enough for the main single."

Especially the song "Until the End of the World" is very to my taste.

I am a little embarrassed to be praised by Oda Tetsuro. He also knows the two songs he "created" by himself, and they are indeed very good.

"Until the End of the World" is a typical rock music, which is in the same strain as Oda Tetsuro's style of music. With the addition of lyrics written by Kazuki Akiyama, the concept of the whole song is sublimated, and it sounds exciting.

And the song "Encounter" is also a typical J-pop and RB pop music. The lyrics express the eternal theme of love, which is also very in line with the current mainstream style.

It is really because I am not sure which song to choose as the title song of the next single, so Kazuki Akiyama asked Oda Tetsuro to help me with the details. Based on Oda Tetsuro's many years of music experience, he must be able to give a very insightful opinion. Opinion.

Oda Tetsuro thought for a while, raised his head and suggested, "Why don't you sing it all over and listen to it."

"Hey, should I sing it all? That's fine." Kazuki Akiyama thought it would be good to sing it all, and see how it works.

Speaking of which, Kazuki Akiyama has already walked into the recording studio. Although there are not as many top-level professional equipment as the other places, it is still enough for audition.

Outside, Tetsuro Oda was already sitting at the workbench, putting on his monitor headphones.
