Young people with light music will not encounter lonely rock music

"Forget it...it's settled..."

It was obviously supposed to be good news, but Kita's tone was very sad.

"In order to get this result, Kita really paid a lot..."

Still, the end result was good.

If he couldn't participate in band activities in the future, Kita wouldn't be happy even if he kept the 600 million.

"This mere 600 million is just our starting point, and we will never stop here." Kotobuki assured, patting his chest.

"Really... We don't just form a band to make money, don't always talk about money." Itachi Hongxia began to reflect.

"It's only 600 million... Only a big dog like Guang can say such a thing." Yamada Ryo gave a complicated look.

"But... I originally wanted to buy a kimono of my own, like when we all went to worship together before, but now this idea has been scrapped."

Kimonos are very expensive, and Kita only rents one to wear during festivals.

Girls are always irresistible to beautiful clothes.

"Don't any of our family members have any opinions?" Kita asked unwillingly.

Although this is very unethical, I hope everyone can encounter the same thing as me...

"My sister will help me keep the secret!" Yiji Hongxia shouted to Yiji Xingge in a high-pitched tone.

But Yidi Zhixingge just remained silent, glanced over and nodded.

"Haha... My family doesn't know how much I earn." Yamada Ryo said proudly.

"Mom and dad said they would leave this money for me to use for my wedding..." Goto Ichiri's cheeks turned red and he whispered softly.

"Hey... Xiaoyili's parents are really open-minded."

"My words..." Kotobuki Hikaru just started, but was immediately interrupted.

"Okay, Kotobuki-kun, there's no need to say anything else. Your answer will stimulate us." Itachi Hongxia said sternly.

"Anyway, Guang's family is not bad at this..." Yamada Ryo said.

"Well...I'm not I didn't..."

Kotobuki Mitsuru wanted to deny it, but the words of denial were stuck in his throat and he couldn't say it out anyway.

Lies are always difficult to tell to friends.

"Ahem." Qin Chuiguang coughed awkwardly for a while, then said seriously.

"Everyone... regarding this work, I have already written the song."

"Kotobuki-san changed the subject too obviously!"

Although the girls said this, they still talked about business, so they kept their mouths shut and waited silently for Kotobuki Hikari's next move.

"What do you mean I changed the subject... We came to the livehouse today. Isn't the reason why we came to the livehouse in the first place because I proposed to listen to the music I wrote?" Kotobuki said helplessly.

"After all, this was something I was supposed to do yesterday... but it was postponed because of Kita."

"Eh..." Kita looked embarrassed, recalling yesterday in embarrassment.

what......

It seems that everyone had agreed to come and listen to Kotobuki Hikaru's music from the beginning.

It's just that because of his family's affairs, he settled his own affairs first.

"I'm looking forward to Kotobuki-san's music. Please let me read it carefully!"

The girl clasped her hands together and prayed in a devout prayer-like posture.

"Ha..." Kotobuki let out a long sigh.

"Anyway, if you think these two songs are acceptable, you can start composing the lyrics first."

Kotobuki Mitsuru took out his mobile phone, opened the audio player, and played the completed and compressed song.

Chapter 271 You are my heroine

The moment the piano light clicked on the play button.

As if the air had solidified, there was a silence in the livehouse. The girls even forgot to breathe, and just focused on looking at the mobile phones placed in the center of the table.

The next moment, a crisp piano sound sounded in the air.

The melody and chords themselves are not complex, but they are extremely pleasant to listen to.

"Ah...it's the sound of the piano..."

Just a few notes sounded, and gentle smiles appeared on the girls' cheeks.

It is extremely rare for a rock band to have a piano in the music they perform...

After the piano melody ended, the sound of strings sounded immediately afterwards.

Such music couldn't help but make the girls play the first song written by Kotobuki Hikaru.

The style is of course completely different from that, completely between the two ends of the spectrum.

However, after everyone's impression, it was the first time for Kotobuki Hikaru to write a piece that intertwined piano and strings.

As a keyboardist and former pianist, he is naturally most familiar with the use of piano and string instruments.

Therefore, perhaps this kind of music is the type of music that Kotobuki is best at.

After the intro, the song finally has a gradual drum beat and a bass sound that is so subtle that it is difficult to detect.

Compared with the high-profile piano and strings, it seems as if all other elements pale in comparison.

Even in order to make the sound of the piano more prominent, cymbals are used to play the rhythm most of the time.

The gentle melody is like a girl's whispering confession, the first ray of sunshine cast by the pure sky, and the wind blowing in your ears when we walk together on the beach.

"No...guitar?"

Two minutes have passed. For an ordinary song, half the length has passed, but the sound of the guitar is still not heard from the song.

"How could the music written by Kotobuki-kun not have a guitar..." Itachi Hongxia was also a little confused.

Because Kotobuki is the keyboardist of the band, the music he wrote has a lot of piano and string elements, which makes perfect sense.

But he is also a guitarist, and there is also the guitar hero Ichiri Goto in the band.

Therefore, in the songs he wrote in the past, he would definitely use a high-profile guitar as the protagonist, giving Goto a chance to express himself.

However, when the girls were confused, the song finally reached its climax.

As if it was a warning, there was a rapid drumbeat, and the next moment, like a sudden explosion, intense guitar chords suddenly replaced it, replacing the piano tone and becoming the protagonist of the entire song.

Even the sound of the strings was completely suppressed, and only the sound of the guitar played.

Even the solo part is done with guitar.

after a long time...

In the silence of the boys and girls, accompanied by the gentle piano and string music, the song ended.

"..."

After it was all over, no one said a word.

Everyone just looked at each other, and several eyes intertwined and collided with each other. The girls looking at each other seemed to be waiting for someone to express their opinion first.

clap... clap...

Goto Kazari suddenly clapped his hands.

Applause broke the silence, and the others also reacted at this moment, and continued to applaud along with Goto Ichiri.

"So...so awesome!" Goto Ichiri's eyes were filled with stars.

Goto Kazuri, who has never been willing to stand out and always subconsciously follow the crowd no matter what, was the first to say something positive after listening to Kotobuki Hikaru's song.

"This song is really nice!" Kita also confirmed. "Although I don't know how to compose music at all... But even if no one needs to sing this piece, just listening to it makes me feel very beautiful. The piano and string parts are so great, it's like listening to a concert."

"I give this piece 94 points, and give the remaining six points to Hikaru alone." Yamada Ryo was stunned for a while, and then gave a thumbs up.

"But...it's really...not like Kotobuki-kun's music, but I think it's very reasonable for Kotobuki-kun to write such a song." Itichi Hongxia said with some annoyance.

They are obviously contradictory words, but I don't know where the contradiction lies.

"Why...is there anything strange?"

The compliments were ignored by Kotobuki Hikari, and instead he began to question Ichichi Hongka.

"No, no, no...it's not weird!" Yi Jizhi Hongxia quickly waved her hand to deny it. "Of course I also think this is a very powerful song...but it feels a little different from the songs Kotobuki-kun has written before."

"Huh?" Qinbuki tilted his head and looked over doubtfully.

"Because, this song feels like... Kotobuki-kun, the keyboard player, is the protagonist almost the whole time... The sudden change is a bit abrupt."

Kotobuki Hikari was stunned for a moment and blinked blankly.

"In the past... when I was composing music, I did consider the stage effect when everyone performs together. However, the music I made this time was probably used in the animation, which means that I don't need to consider the scene of the live performance. , just put all your mind into the music.”

Kotobuki Hikaru continued to speak with a serious face. "So, I'm sorry, everyone, this is completely the result of my willfulness. If I feel it doesn't work, I will rewrite it."

“No, no, no—I didn’t think it was impossible!”

Yijizhi Hongxia clasped her hands together in guilt.

"It's more than that...this song, rather than being the result of Hikaru's willfulness, is...the result of Hikaru trying to express himself." Yamada Ryo said sharply.

Ryo Yamada, who is also a composer, also understands Kotobuki Mitsuru's thoughts.

"As a songwriter, I can understand...the songs I write also include private parts and use a lot of bass."

The next moment, the band's bassist let out a long sigh and smiled somewhat self-deprecatingly. "But every time the audience couldn't hear it...occasionally they would ask stupid things like 'Why does your guitar have no sound?'"

"Ryo...at least when you're on stage, you should stand in front so the audience can see you." Itachi Hikaru patted Yamada Ryo's shoulder to comfort her.

"But... I'm quite curious as to why it suddenly became like this."

Yamada Ryo changed the subject, put his hands on the table, squinted his eyes slightly, looked at Kotobuki Mitsuru sitting opposite him and asked.

"Ha..." Kotobuki Mitsuru sighed.

This matter should indeed be told to everyone.

"Actually, two days ago, I went to the animation company alone and met Mr. Sawano."

"Eh...when? Why didn't we know?!"

The girls looked at each other with confusion on their faces, even Goto Kazuri had a puzzled expression.

"Originally, I was very ambitious, thinking that I could easily get Mr. Sawano's approval with the music I wrote, and then give everyone a surprise, but... as expected, I still hit a wall."

It is still very shameful to say such a scandal in front of everyone.

It was completely a plot where I went to the boss to show off with confidence and then got slapped in the face.

"Although I hit a wall, I also learned that when composing music, I should abandon all worries and work solely on writing music...so I have gained something."

"It's so shameless..." Ryo Yamada just spoke, but Ijichi Hongka glared at him, and then he turned his gaze aside and remained silent.

"However, I watched Sawano's recording session and listened to the music he composed for this animation..."

"Eh?! Is there such a good thing?"

The girls all showed surprised expressions.

This kind of legendary recording scene in the industry is definitely not easy to see.

"That's right... I should say, he is worthy of being a genius? The music written by Mr. Sawano can no longer be described simply as awesome. It is like an insurmountable peak. At that time, I even wrote I don’t even have the confidence to produce music of the same quality.”

Kotobuki Hikaru sighed, with a lonely look on his face.

It's not that he has a glassy heart and will become cynical and complain about injustices when he is hit a little bit.

However, no matter who you are, after pushing hard all the way and encountering almost no obstacles until now, and suddenly encountering an existence that beats you in all directions, you will inevitably feel disappointed.

However, it is natural to lose, and whether you can regenerate the courage to face the peak is the most important thing.

"So, I want to try my best. Even if I can't surpass the song written by Mr. Sawano, if what I write can make him nod, get his approval, and even make him a little surprised, then I can be satisfied too.”

After all the words in my heart were spoken, the burden on my heart suddenly lightened.
