We are accustomed to "seeing" the world with our eyes, but we often neglect to "hear" the world with our ears, leaving sound to become a background board for daily life, trivial and uninteresting. However, sound has its own wonders, as long as you are willing to close your eyes and listen with your heart.
The sound can be timed:
At 7 a.m., the mother upstairs would yell at her child to get up and broadcast in English, urging him to study.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, the primary school opposite the community came with the familiar "eye exercises start, close your eyes";
In daily life, there are also many voices that we ignore: on Saturdays and Sundays, the sound of the drum washing machine turning in an orderly manner; The computer has been used for too long, and the buzzing of the heating plate; In the forest after the rain, the "crackling" sound of dew hitting the leaves ......
As long as you are willing to listen carefully, you will find that your sense of hearing is becoming more and more acute, and the world is still this world, but we perceive it with finer granularity. The layering of sound has brought a diverse experience, and the connection with the world has become stronger.
From "completely insensitive".
to "love over time".
The relationship between Zou Di and ** is more like "long-term love".
Her mother had an unfulfilled dream of literary youth, so much so that when Zou Di was 4 years old, her mother sent her to learn the electronic piano. The days of learning the piano are very boring - practicing the fingering of the piano, learning music theory knowledge and grading, just like practicing martial arts, through a large number of repetitive movements to form muscle memory, she admits frankly: "At that time, it was what the teacher said, what I did, and I didn't know what ** was."
But her ** road, to a certain extent, is very smooth, with the first place in the first place admitted to the composition department of Sichuan ** University, under the composer Professor Yang Xinmin, after graduation to Beijing to study and work with the composer Professor Li Haiying, and also began the North Drift career, like most workers, she is in the life of 996 and even 007 day after day, constantly torturing the relationship between her ideals and reality.
Zou Di still takes ** seriously, but he can't find a sense of freedom in creation.
The change came from April 2015, when the long-term overtime made Zou Di's body unbearable. One afternoon, when she went out for a walk, she saw a row of willow trees swaying in the wind, "At that time, I was infected when I looked at them, and I wrote a feeling when I went back, I thought to myself that life is so beautiful, why should I live like this?" ”
Zou Di realized that the perception she got from ** was slowly disappearing, and she began to run into nature often, "As long as it rains, I will go to see those plants, you can feel that the plants will laugh, the dew will dance, and when you are close to nature, you can feel the power of ** and pleasure." ”
In nature, Zou Di used a tape recorder to collect a lot of sounds, and the moment she regained her perception, the world became alive again, and she began to give this gift of sound to more people.
In the summer of 2018, Zou Di began to go into the countryside, collecting the sounds of animals and streams in the countryside on the one hand, and leading the children to experience the world with their ears on the other.
I took 20 children to the forest near the countryside. Everyone talked all the way and didn't get quiet, and when we got to the forest, I said let's try to stop and listen quietly for a minute. At that time, there were many sounds in the forest, including the sound of insects, streams, wind, ......We looked at each other with joy and communicated with our eyes, but neither of us spoke.
Later, when sharing, everyone talked about the magic of nature, when there are many human voices, insects are afraid to make sounds, when we lower the state of the whole person, insects can sense a magnetic field, they will freely make their own sounds. I want children to be able to feel the beauty of the world with their voices and have a more perspective on the world. ”
In addition, Zou Di also began to add the sound recorded in nature to the creation.
This winter, she and Lynk & Co created a "snow ** meeting", Zou Di and several ** friends Erin, Hu Chen, and Ma Xiaofei together to create a song with the sound in the snow and complete the performance in the snow, this form of creation made Zou Di particularly excited.
As a native of Sichuan, she saw snow for the first time at the age of 25, and was moved by the wanton attitude of snowflakes falling, coupled with the energy she has gained in nature over the years, so that she wants to give back to nature in the form of **.
"Don't do those tricks all the time! ”
It's not easy to create a song, you need to determine the tonality in the early stage, the four of them pulled a small group, and threw some suitable ** references in it, Erin said, "What's funny is that we will also throw some negative teaching materials, and we will say that we must not make it like this." ”
After that, how to determine the framework of the song, how to make a song have a beginning and a turn, how to make the sound of the hand disc, vocals, violin, and synthesizer have their own outstanding and harmonious harmony, and the most important thing to consider is how to make the song have a spiritual core and convey a "why not" power - a kind of spiritual temperament that is not afraid of challenges and dares to do different, these are all issues that need to be considered by them.
The creation process of the whole song is a collision of four people, and like Zou Di, the enthusiasm for ** drives the lead singer and songwriter Erin to always pursue change, disgust with routines and stay in the comfort zone for a long time, and want to have a deeper connection with **.
For her, the people who can really do things well are the ones who don't want to repeat themselves and don't follow the template. "We should be asking, why do I have to do this? Can I change something, don't keep repeating myself. ”
In this song, Erin has been adjusting and breaking through when she was writing the lyrics, for example, one of the lyrics was originally "stand in the cold", and then became "stand out in the cold".
This time, Lynk & Co and their group of ** people with the spirit of why not, inspired by the sound of the earth awakening, played a ** meeting in the ice and snow ......
And this is also the "why not" spirit that Lynk & Co wants to advocate, the distance is not far away, as long as you have an unwavering heart that wants to arrive, as well as the courage and strength to constantly break through yourself.
With them, there are also Lynk & Co EM-P family vehicles, whether it is Lynk & Co 06, Lynk & Co 08, Lynk & Co 09, all have excellent performance in the ice and snow, equipped with Lynk & Co EM-P super extended range electric solution, no matter how cold the outside temperature is, the vehicle can start and drive normally and quickly, and the temperature in the car can also rise rapidly in a short time, so that every user can set off at any time and walk on the road to find inspiration and beauty. Behind this is Lynk & Co's unremitting pursuit of excellent quality and continuous strengthening of product strength.
Today is the beginning of spring, we know that winter will always pass, and what matters is what we think about in winter. For Zou Di, in the winter of her life, she realized that she had to rediscover the connection between her voice and herself in nature. For Erin, every breakthrough is a concrete attempt and innovation.
Every challenge makes Zou Di and Erin's connection with ** stronger and stronger, and also makes them willing to give back more energy to the world with the help of **. In fact, only by withstanding the challenges brought by winter can we usher in the recovery of spring, and this is true of nature and life.
I wish you the courage to set off at any time in the spring
