When Feng Xiaoyue releases an album, many people should sigh, "Finally!"
Although he is best known as an actor, he has occasionally crossed over with Wei Ruxuan in recent years. , Sunset Speed and i mean us and other singers and bands have cooperated, participating in lyrics, music, singing and guitar performance, and the name of "Crazy Guitarist" has become more and more famous.
Feng Xiaoyue, who is inseparable from the music industry, released his first solo album "Qi" last year, officially meeting everyone as a musician. This year, he started a solo tour and contributed a number of dazzling stage performances in the variety show "Warrior 4". Although he was stuck in 18th place and failed to form a group, more people have recognized "Musician Phoenix". Xiaoyue" charm.
In an exclusive interview with a reporter from the Yangcheng Evening News, Feng Xiaoyue described this transformation as a return: "I was playing in a band before making movies, and now it's more like returning to a familiar world. My music is all personal creation. I hope everyone can get to know me from another angle through music. "Music has always been Feng Xiaoyue's private treasure, and now I finally share it with everyone. This decision requires opportunity and courage. In this exclusive interview, Feng Xiaoyue starts with his first guitar. As a result, the romantic, spontaneous and free man gradually emerged in front of everyone.
Return
"I played guitar five or six hours a day in high school"
The interview started with "When did you become interested in music?" Feng Xiaoyue subconsciously gave an answer: "There seems to be no need for a reason to fall in love with music." When he was a child, There was no TV at home, but a cassette recorder. Most of her parents' cassettes were Western classic rock music such as The Beatles. Feng Xiaoyue listened to it over and over again. When she was seven or eight years old, she used her comb as a microphone and sang and danced along with the songs. She turned around and found her parents hiding in the corridor and secretly observing her. A little shy but a little enjoying, this is how I completed my musical enlightenment.
Feng Xiaoyue picked up the first guitar in his life. The guitar was sitting next to a community garbage collection bin, a little damaged but still making sound. Feng Xiaoyue's father took him to find a neighbor's guitarist for help. After repairing it, the guitar became an indispensable part of Feng Xiaoyue's life.
"My parents were also observing whether I really liked the guitar at that time. I played here and there every day and continued to practice, and my mother would also send me to music classes. When they felt that I was good at playing, they gave me "I bought my first acoustic guitar." Then it snowballed. He joined the school's guitar club, formed a band with his friends, performed, composed, recorded, and pressed his own CDs... "My life throughout high school. I was very close to the band. I wanted to play the guitar every morning, and I often practiced after school. It was a golden and wonderful time.”
Many rock stars are Feng Xiaoyue. idol, which subtly influences his aesthetics and ideas. For example, I grew up listening to the Beatles, "They gave me a deep memory of being a band, and I felt that music must be presented in the form of a band." Another example is David Bowie . Feng Xiaoyue watched his live performance in Europe when he was 14 years old. When he grew up, he was even more moved by David Bowie’s infinite creativity: “He saw himself as a As a multimedia artist, everyone is best known for his music, but he also acts, draws, and designs... He lives a very colorful life, which is a state that I yearn for very much." The British band Muse made him realize it. On the charm of the stage: "Their performance was very unrestrained and free. I remember seeing the lead singer Matthew Bemilla singing on the stage, and I felt like I would do something like this one day. "
Self-help
"You can't control the world, but you can change yourself"
For Feng Xiaoyue, who is so addicted to music, being an actor is the variable in life. Feng Xiaoyue's participation in the movie "Mongolia" at the age of 21 was regarded as one of the turning points in his life. After that, he became active in the public as an actor.Acting is a job he loves, but music is related to the soul. Because it was too precious, I kept hesitating.
The opportunity that made Feng Xiaoyue decide to make an album sounds a bit philosophical. "A lot has happened in the past few years. It seems that everyone doesn't know where the focus of life should be. We live in a world overloaded with information. As soon as we turn on our mobile phones, we will fake the beauty. But I don't want to fall into such negative emotions. "I can't control the world, but at least I can change myself." He tries to find meaning in a turbulent world, and music is the anchor. "Making music is a breakthrough for me." Things in the comfort zone will definitely be painful, but now that I have made this decision, I can face it."
For Feng Xiaoyue, "Qi" is first and foremost a "self-help" album. He used this album to climb out of the quagmire of negative emotions and use music to feel "alive". During the three-year production period, he thought a lot and found some answers. "For example, when I look back at my teenage years, why are teenagers so gloomy and so prone to emo? I now understand that during adolescence, many things are dying in our hearts. But this is how growth is. Only when something is lost can there be something new. "I really want to commemorate this event."
Feng Xiaoyue said that until now, he is still experiencing the process of loss and gain: "I still keep searching for the meaning of life, and I have different experiences." Emotions. This thing never stops, and music can help me digest these emotions. What the album "Seven" wants to say is the cycle and transformation of life. We accept new things into life and let go of growth. I have been hurt and kept moving forward. This album is made for myself first. If it has the ability to infect more listeners, then I will be very happy. "
romantic
"The greatest spirit of music is tolerance. "The song in the
album that means the most to Feng Xiaoyue is the Hokkien song "Windmill" written by Wu Bai . At that time, the demo and arrangement of the song had been completed. In his imagination, this should be a song full of "manly romance", and Wu Bai was simply the spokesperson for this temperament. Coincidentally, Feng Xiaoyue appeared in the rock opera "Road to Success" written, directed and performed by Wu Bai, so it was natural for him to invite him to sing. "I described a scene to Teacher Wu Bai in the email: I saw a person running forward hard, but staying in the same place; but he could see the light in front of him, he longed to be loved, and he also longed to love. He immediately You understand what I mean, and I used the very appropriate metaphor of a windmill."
Although they grew up in different eras and have very different styles, there is a feeling of sympathy between Wu Bai and Feng Xiaoyue. The topic of the interview turned to the stage play "The Road to Success": "You may need to think about it when watching this play, but I knew what he wanted to say as soon as I read the script. The story takes place in the future world, and the protagonist is a The guitarist who has been staying at home is afraid of the outside world, but he was kicked out of his house due to a fire and was forced to face the world. I have always regarded music and guitar as treasures, but I have never shown them to everyone. In the end, this drama seems to be a microcosm of my life." Talking about Wu Bai in his eyes, he said: "He is just as everyone imagined, a very real and flesh-and-blood creator with an eternal innocence. As a new musician, I am really honored to have such cooperation with teacher Wu Bai. "
Not only Wu Bai, "Qi" brings together Han Likang, Chen Junhao, Chen Jianqi, Mayday Martha, Sunset Speed Guoguo, Hongli, Li Gedi, etc. Gold medal lineup. "Qi" is not overwhelmed by their styles, Feng Xiaoyue's temperament runs throughout. Speaking of the biggest gain from making this album, Feng Xiaoyue said: "I first learned that the greatest spirit of music is tolerance. Only by tolerating your own imperfections can you have the opportunity to let other people's opinions enter your world. These Musicians helped me break through my own blind spots, and I may have brought some sparks of excitement to them. I'm very happy that this album can become what it is now.It has been a year since the album was released, and I have started to perform live performances one after another, which makes me feel that this album is down to earth. I feel that I have done a very worthwhile thing, and the spiritual value brought by the creation itself can make us very rich inside. "
Contrast
"Happy to share the side of me wearing small cloth shoes"
Feng Xiaoyue's love for creation and cherishment of the spiritual world, part of which comes from his family environment. His father is a British violin street performer, His mother is mime artist Sun Lizui. Feng Xiaoyue was born in England and lived in France for a period of time during his childhood. Later, his mother sent him to primary school near Dujiangyan, Sichuan, and he also went to the Shaolin Temple to learn kung fu. Moments from life: “The local street performer culture is very popular. My father and his band perform every day and earn enough money to eat and pay the rent. Sometimes after we finish singing in this cafe, we go to the cafe next door to eat. For him, the real joy is making music. I have a very deep impression of this period. "
The album "Qi" showed Feng Xiaoyue's rock soul and delicate introspection. In the variety show "Warrior 4", he can almost be described as "naive". In any case, he and "Tiny Times" are as frosty as ice. The mixed-race prince Wong Ming is definitely far away. This contrast surprised the audience, so they regarded him as a "treasure boy". For him, this is just an unexpected gain: "Being an actor is a job for me. , I have always lacked interest in turning myself into an idol. I'm glad that I have a few characters that are deeply rooted in people's hearts, but after filming, I still go back to myself. You all saw me wearing little cloth shoes in "Breakthrough 4", and I'm very happy to be able to share this side of my life. "
asked Feng Xiaoyue to describe his personality. He said, "I am living more and more clearly." He loves to drink tea. Recently, he is obsessed with "instruments that are not so lethal" such as Guqin and Nanyin Pipa. They sound very Old school, but if you talk carefully, you can feel that he is trying his best to make himself a better person. As the father of an eight-year-old child, he thinks a lot about the identity of "father"-digesting the pain of his original family. , to give his son the soundest growing environment, “I hope to pass on the good things my father gave me, and the bad things must stop in my generation. But people are imperfect, and my son will definitely have negative energy that he needs to digest. But as a father, I will pay special attention to try to avoid causing harm to him."
Another life issue is "what can I do for society." Feng Xiaoyue thought very clearly: "Now I may be able to give We provide some entertainment and emotional value, but it is not yet in a state where we can do something for society. I hope that when I am fifty or sixty years old, I can really start to give something back to society. This is a big goal in my life right now. But I am still figuring out what I can do specifically. In the meantime, all I can do is slowly accumulate works so that everyone can feel the changes in life from my works.
