Calyx's review of "Journey of Fragrance"
Seeking the endless river of soul, fragrance can also be ice
Contemporary Cool The fragrant footsteps
The true nature of Feng Yan's singing seems to be the true nature of life, the true nature of the sincere writing of the eternal theme of the soul's destiny.
Is that kind of sentimental vomiting an echo of the unique social journey and spiritual journey of those born in the 1970s, or is it the sway of the independent creative spirit of the individual era in the 21st century? These words of concern were all drowned out by his works and singing itself. What we get are his songs, those songs that come from the emotional melodies of a pure heart and sing the poetry of love, nature, and urban life. Their lyrics are like the poems of Holderlin, a spiritual coordinate poem in the process of German modernization. And its music carries the creator's breath itself, like an action, an expression, like the sigh of our life that keeps pace with the times but seems to always experience loneliness.
Is his singing more of a lonely sigh, a candlelight in the dark night, or a bright field? The delicate and annoying fragrance emanates from the quiet and lonely soul, while the strange changes in tone will evoke the excitement and madness of the quiet heart.
The works of Feng Yan, an independent musician who combines lyrics, composition, playing and singing, directly go to various scenes of contemporary life, including streets and bars, factories and schools, and various stages in large, medium and small cities. , becoming another fresh scene for contemporary independent folk original performances.
Urban folk songs: drawing nourishment from Irish folk songs and old-fashioned pop songs
Folk songs have long been followed in Europe, America and Taiwan, such as Bob Dylan in the United States in the 1960s. Hu Defu, the father of Taiwan's folk songs, has a meaning that transcends music, is full of social cohesion, and is a monument to the cultural evolution of free civil society.
Feng Yan is a simple singer and creator who walks tenaciously step by step according to his own temperament, inner laws and the logic of life. After graduating from a normal college with a music major, he worked as a teacher for half a year, and then came to Beijing to pursue his career. He first wrote lyrics, but they were rejected by the composer as being too personal and not commercial enough. So he composed music for these lyrics himself, but they were not accepted by the singer for the same reason, so he played and sang it himself. Everything was natural. He took on all the responsibility from arranging to producing, and he tenaciously embarked on the path of independent creation. So just like that, without a helper from commercial music, he became a contemporary independent original musician. The first album "Come to Me" released in 2005 had the influence of Irish folk songs. Old-fashioned pop songs such as campus ballads also became his fateful nourishment due to his early influence.
Creation is a natural thing
Speaking of creation, Feng Yan said: "Actually, I don't have that many ideas. I don't even think about creating or writing songs.
“There are stories behind these songs. Many of the scenes expressed in the lyrics of "Fragrant Journey" have been experienced by me personally or dreamed of, and they are also my motivations for wandering around. ”
“Creation is self-expression, without considering commercial things; the first thing I think of is that the work is music.
"In the future, we may gradually shift from an introverted style to absorbing spiritual nutrients from the outside living space, so that the works will have more impact of the times and personality."
The audience's appreciation for him The song always gets a great response when performed live. Simple, cordial, profound, and psychedelic, in addition to the powerful tremors of large-scale productions, people's hearts today also need the longer-lasting tremors of humanistic nourishment.
Fans' reaction to his songs is that they are different from the existing pop music scene. They are suddenly transported to another world, another realm, like the return of home and nostalgia. They are full of aftertaste and make people fall in love with them. The innocent heart in the song is like a real fruit core, telling the listener to have a variety and a taste after reading it with his ears.
In addition to music, his essays convey the paradoxical or vivid feeling of life. Some of Feng Yan's songs are themselves pragmatic humanistic works, such as "Shadow", "Laughing", "No More", and "Going to the Distance". Xuanyuan seems to express the emotions and spiritual light and shadow of people of an era. "The Last Subway" and "Passing Through" reflect a specific event, a narrative of urban life and emotional journey.
Northern, born in the 1970s and raised in the 1990s, established an independent path and direction, and developed art from life. In the innovation and transformation of the times and society, how do we adapt to the soul, settle the soul, dock emotions, and let time and space set sail? Those who look back on time, look forward to life, and faithfully follow the life of the times, walk on the noisy land and highways, and also walk on the eternal emotions and souls, just like the song "Fragrant Journey", holding hands with nature, crowds, and The natural desire and eternal meditation of the love of the human heart:
I will walk through the fields, through the villages
Through the hills full of flowers
I will meet you in the vast sea of ??people
I will hold your hand and walk through the busy streets
I will travel through time and space, through impermanence
The fragrance that flows through life.
