创作故事 / Story
以为日子还很长,长到忘了会长大。
词和旋律是小学六年级写的。那是第一次感受到什么叫“过去”:纸飞机、没写完的作业、升旗时的号鼓声,都还在眼前,却已经是回忆了。
I wrote the words and melody in sixth grade, the first time I felt what "the past" meant: paper planes, unfinished homework, the bugle and drum at flag-raising, all still close and already memories.
多年后,我在 Berklee Online 的 OMPRD-228《Writer, Engineer, Producer in the Home Studio》里,把它当作课程项目。六周里,它从一段 iPhone 录音,一步步走到 Pro Tools 里的正式录音:进 DAW、加贝斯、改和声、写鼓和器乐 hook,再测试麦克风、换上正式人声。
Years later I used it as my project for Berklee Online's OMPRD-228. Over six weeks it went from an iPhone recording to a Pro Tools tracking session: DAW setup, bass, new harmony, drums and an instrumental hook, mic tests, and finally the real vocal takes.
现在听到的这版是 tracking 阶段的 demo。按课程要求,没有加 EQ、压缩、混响和延迟,所以是干净、没有修饰的原始录音;人声有 AutoTune 修音,也有和声。
This is the tracking-stage demo. As the course required, there is no EQ, compression, reverb or delay, so what you hear is the dry recording, with AutoTune on the vocal and backing vocals added.
以为日子,还很长
长到忘了会,长大
