夜幕降临的时候,整个公寓好似一个空瓶,我能感受到黑夜的悄然挪动,宛如墨汁般,在空间中逐步渗透于每一个房间、每一个角落,随后带走了虚无缥缈的一种空洞感,唯有寂静还在房间中游荡。
The apartment somehow was like an empty bottle, and when the night fell, I could see the movement of the nightfall. The darkness was as if the ink started to fill in every space of the apartment, room to room, corner to corner, and finally, it took away the emptiness, and left the silence all around the house.
彼时,我能感受到有那么一种情感正在涌现,是如此地强烈,将我的记忆一一融入。黑夜吞噬的房间中,这一强烈的情感在我心中定格,仿佛我深呼一口气,并摒住了呼吸,万籁俱寂,只有我的心跳砰砰作响。窗外,月光的照耀下,正逐渐明朗,衬托出房间中窗帘的剪影。躺在床上,望着微风轻轻推动窗帘的影子,我顺手拿起口琴,跟着感觉,让那强烈的情感化为一个个音符,吹出心之曲。
At that moment, somehow I felt a strong emotion, so strong that the emotion began to link with my memories as if I took a deep breath and then hold it. In the pitch black house, I hold the emotion for a while, not a sound was heard, but the pounding of my heart. Outside the window, it was getting clear and clear, and the moon cut out a silhouette of the curtain. Lying in bed, I saw the shadow of the curtain was moved as a gentle breeze pushed it. Then, I found a note that represented the feeling I'd been holding. I followed this with notes that compliment this feeling and reached for my harmonica to let the emotion out.
MI(3)、SOL(5)、LA(6)、SI(7)通常是我常用的音符,通过超吹和压音,呈现不同的音调,时而悠扬,时而犹如小提琴般的颤音,时而又在两者音符中来回吹奏,黑暗中,蓝调的感觉尤为明显。以往我的口琴均为独奏,这一次,我邀请了一位朋友Susan,作为吉他爱好者的她,共同演绎重现电影《八月迷情》的那段经典主题曲“Moondance”。我们不仅期望让歌曲还原度更高,也期望加入我们自己的慢摇和蓝调特色,于是乎,运用勾弦、推弦、滑音、颤音、移琴、提音等手法,不断的互相配合找到了合适的律动,让旋律有一种柔柔的弹性,又带有一丝抒情与慰藉之感。
MI(3), SOL(5), LA(6), and SI(7) were the music notes I usually play. By overbending, I played these notes with different musical tones, sometimes it was melodic, sometimes it was a vibrato like a violin, and sometimes I played the tune back and forth between the two notes. In the darkness of the room, the blues was pretty obvious. Usually, I played the harmonica SOLO. But this time, I invited my friend Susan, who is a guitar lover, to recreate the classic theme song "Moondance" from the movie "August Rush". We tried to remake the song more original-like as well as expected to put our own style in it, including slow-wave and blues.
在尝试了很久之后,终于完成,录下了我们满意的版本。随后,通过R星旗下的著名游戏《荒野大镖客2》,我以西部的场景让这首歌更为生动,模仿电影的拍摄视角,剪辑完成了这首“Moondance”的MV。接下来,让我们一起来欣赏下吧,期望你们喜欢。
Having been tried many many times, we finally found the perfect match with our musical instruments via various skills including pull-off, bending, slide, vibrato, switch holes, blow and draw, etc. And now the final version was completed and recorded. Then, with the help of the Red Dead Redemption II, a famous video game by Rockstar, I created the music video with the scenes of the WEST in the shooting perspective of the movie. And this "Moondance" had the melody with a soft elastic with a trace of emotion and the feeling of comfort. Let's enjoy it and hope you like it.

我以为音乐和绘画有着一丝共性,作为艺术的一部分,两者又有着彼此的联系,都能唤醒你内心深处的情感。听觉,让你能感受优美的旋律,而视觉,则让你去感知色彩斑斓的绘画。当音乐和绘画互相触碰的时候,共鸣之情油然而生,这或许就是艺术吧。
Music and painting are alike, I thought. As both parts of the ART, somehow they connected with each other, which invokes feelings in the deep of your heart. The melody offers an ability to hear while the drawing gives a capacity to see. As the music and the painting collides, the expression of emotion could boost your feelings. And that was ART, I guess.
