To be exact, it should be called Taiwan Province Province "R&; B godfather of music ",which is more accurate! The godfathers of Taiwanese music should be Bobby Chen, Tayu Lo and Jonathan Lee. These people carry more weight, but not necessarily! Everyone's field has made their own great contribution!
The significance of Tao Zhe lies in bringing R&; Music, the research and development of Jay Chou should be the research and development of Jay Chou; B is not purer than Tao Zhe, but it creates the style of "China Phoenix", which combines the elements of Chinese folk music and brings R &;; B wave has a great influence. ...
In any case, what cannot be erased is that Tao Zhe brought R&; The fact that music came to China!
Call it Taiwan Province Province "R & amp;; B godfather of music "is not too much. "
Tao Zhe, the godfather of new music, has come all the way
First of all, stand out.
1997. He jumped from the background to the stage, from a famous music producer to a singer. He took R&; The first R & in Taiwan Province province, China; Hurricane B. This China boy, who grew up in the United States, made his mark in the music scene of Taiwan Province Province with his leading music production strength at a young age; David, an English boy, has never received any orthodox music education, but with his own talent and music creation, he has promoted the first wave of music in the Chinese music scene and even in Asia. Therefore, people regard him as "the godfather of new music in Chinese music".
Second, make a fist.
1999. After two years in America, he made a comeback with his second album, I'm Fine. He returned to Taiwan Province Province, China, he returned to the Chinese music scene, and he picked up R&; Banner B began to exert its strength and shine in the Chinese music scene. When the operation of the recording industry is slowly moving towards commercialization and the Chinese music scene is slowly moving towards inferiority, he resolutely abandons business and insists on making his own music instead of blindly catering to the market. His persistence in music has never failed to live up to the title of "godfather of music". He continued to consolidate his position in the Chinese music scene and continue to play R&; B wind.
Third, create a classic.
In 2002. Three years of silence. Under the urgent urging of the record company boss and the long-awaited fans, his third album "Black Liu Ding" finally surfaced. Why does orange Liu Ding turn black? Why is this supposed harmonious society full of so many crimes and wars? After listening to this album, you will know the answer. This is a very heavy album of his. The reason why it is heavy is not because the style of the album is all-encompassing, but because it reflects his sense of responsibility to society and his most straightforward worldview. Like the first two albums, the master arranged the song creation and conceptual design of the whole album. After all, he is the godfather of music. No one else can match him in today's Chinese-speaking world, whether in the musicality of the album, the production level or even his own singing skills. I believe that his immortal classics may not be surpassed by others in the next ten or twenty years. If anyone does this, it may only be the "godfather of music" himself.
Fourthly, precipitation fermentation.
In 2003. Signed a contract with EMI, one of the top five record companies in the world, and became the head of EMI Taiwan Province Branch. Along the way, no matter how many bumps and storms, he came out step by step. In the Chinese music scene, he firmly laid a field of his own. Looking back on all his works in the past six years, as the music director of EMI Taiwan Province Branch, he carefully selected some of his representative songs in previous years and released a selected album called "The Road to Music". Fortunately, this album has five new songs (equivalent to half an album) that were not available in the previous album, and also contains some valuable recording materials about his song production.
Delivery room 1 1
The same year. I filmed a music documentary "Delivery Room 1 1" which belongs to myself and my fans, and described and reflected some processes and feelings when I created and produced the album "Black Liu Ding". This should also be the first film in Chinese music to record the music production process and music life.
Soul power
The same year. He, a well-known musician in the music circle, set foot on the stadium of Hong Kong Red Pavilion and gave a concert called "Soul Power". In fact, this is not so much a grand concert as an unprecedented concert. He said: "The concert doesn't need much fancy and stage design, but it must be musical and meaningful." Hong Kong stars attending Soul Power are even more famous, including Jacky Cheung, Eason Chan, Ku Kuiji, twins in the music world, and Sammo Hung, Yang Ziqiong and Carman Lee in the film world, which shows the great influence of this "godfather of music". At the end of the concert, he sang 1993' s song Love is Simple. He said: "I don't remember that I sang well, or that the band (band) was good, or that the voice (voice) was good. Remember that today's atmosphere is full of love. This is what I want everyone to remember. In this world, this is what we need, more love.
Verb (abbreviation of verb) is famous for its popularity.
In 2005. He suddenly threw out an album called Peace and Prosperity. The name is obviously satirizing the restless world, and the "godfather of music" is still preaching what he wants to say "great love". As the "godfather", he is absolutely the best in terms of the gold content and production level of records. Tao Zhe, I'm fine. Black Liu Ding is like this. It always leaves others behind. As usual, this album swept all kinds of awards ceremonies and won numerous laurels. He achieved great success. Perhaps, this album is his most famous album in the mainland. When I just love you, love me or him, Susan's words spread all over the campus and school radio. When I just love you, love me or him, Susan's words spread all over the streets, and I feel a sense of pity. Many people don't know his initial achievements, and few people know his album Black Liu Ding, which I think is a classic. Maybe the black Liu Ding makes me feel tired in hearing or aesthetics. I don't like Taiping Shi Sheng very much, but that doesn't mean that the godfather of music hasn't made progress. As far as musicality is concerned, Thai is not as good as black, but judging from the ideas conveyed by Taiping's songs such as Ghost and Sun Tzu's Art of War, Thai seems to be heavier than black, which is more meaningful through the songs themselves, and the sense of social responsibility is more reflected in Thai. Music doesn't have to be beautiful, lyrics don't have to be poetic, but songs must have care for society and the world. This is probably the "soul of music" that he called "the godfather of music".
