Album introduction

Green days

In 1951, Che Guevara embarked on a motorcycle and embarked on a long march across the five South American countries. What he saw and heard along the way finally became the most regretful revolutionary hero of the 20th century. In 2006, Huang also stepped on his sukeda and launched a warm but not so heroic tour around the island, which officially set off Huang's road of music revolution. After returning to Taipei, Huang began to prepare for his first album. Although he was also angry and dissatisfied with the real world, after all, the bloody revolution was too far away and difficult, writing songs and singing were just as easy for him. The song of the same name "green days" on the album is about the depression and indignation of the soldiers, "the shoes shine on your feet, the plum blossom on your shoulders shine, and the green camouflage camouflages perfectly, which can't cover the dirty psychology. Is it true that if I bite my teeth and survive this period, I can become a so-called man? You must be able to feel the same way if you have baked your shoes with a lighter, but in fact, the feeling of "having to" is everywhere. For the poor students whose parents have to aspire to higher education, and for the new social people who have to stay up late to work overtime for a meager salary, don't you all live "green days"?

In green days, there are bitterness and sweetness, just like Che Guevara's journey, there are many relaxed and happy episodes. In Huang's music world, love songs are the most important component, because he always believes that "love" is the driving force to change the world. From the opening little love song "dalada", love sprouted, "I thought everything was regular until I met you. I become nervous, I become unreasonable, is this love? When the break-up time comes, the violent reaction may be inevitable, and even doubt the meaning of "being." your leaving, your scarf, tighten me up, remind me whether I should exist, exist in your nonexistent existence? When I dream back in the middle of the night, my mood rises and falls. I hear the sad "25 years old" and "will you still appear in my dream and accompany me through countless long nights? I want to be your good friend. I want to ask if you are satisfied. You are the only dream of this cruel life. 」

Have you ever found that Huang's lyrics are always flat and straightforward, which are not poetic at all, but with natural and fluent melody, they are incomparably compatible, without any traces of artificiality, and they are freely hummed and catchy, which is the unique charm of Huang's works. The whole album is produced by Huang Xiaozhen. Although the music arrangement is based on the wooden guitar, the unique and smooth chords and the mixing of electronic feel are not so-called campus folk songs at all. You can vaguely feel Huang Xiaozhen's experimental music that you haven't seen for a long time. If you have to explain, I think it can be regarded as the new acoustic style that has attracted much attention in recent years! In the singing part, the former natural volume baby also came to sing across the knife. In "25 years old" and "being friends", her ever-changing voice and expression brought the best performance to these two songs. The cooperation between the three of them took place as early as this spring. That is to say, everyone first knew Huang's work "Shangri La", but this time Huang sang the song as the creator himself, which was different from the sad feeling of a doll. Huang's singing was actually much warmer. "I thought that if I did it seriously, I could realize my dream. I thought that if I wrote a good song, I could lift my head when I walked, I think I can become a hero by motorcycle travel. Now I lose my impulse. "Instead of worrying and despondent, it's better to embrace hope and strive to pursue one's own dream," I sing, you listen, all the wind is calm and the waves are still, the root of G chord soothes the fragile heart You hold the kitten, blue eyes no longer melancholy, Shangri La where, let's go to find. 」

My high school classmates

Bid farewell to the "Green Day" and enter the society, Huang Yu chose a slightly different way. He decided to support himself with his love of music. No nine to five, no fixed income, he observes, he feels, he creates, he sings, the second album "my high school classmates" is just about all kinds of aspects of young people who have just entered the society, of course, about love, about family, about self doubt, and the hesitation in the face of life. Huang always uses his easy words, with smooth and moving melody, which shows the same confusion in our hearts.

A holiday

For a long time, there has not been such a fresh combination, breaking the shell, a yellow "egg yolk" shining. This is the most exciting and most anticipated cross-border combination of this year - Huang Li x Dan Bao, two creative talents in the field of folk music and hip-hop, who have taken a step out from their respective fields of success. How to knead the meaningful and fashionable rhythm of fresh folk music? At last year's roof Music Festival, Huang Yu invited his long cherished hip-hop little brother egg castle as a special guest. The cooperation of two songs has made the fans crazy. After the event, the follow-up inquiries are even more enthusiastic. This year, Huang Yu decided to invite Dan Bao to perform on the same stage again. This time, there are more than two songs, but a wonderful cooperation between the two sets. There are yolks in the eggs, and eggs in the yolks. In addition to the integration of their past works, they also jointly created a new song "take a holiday". This is a story that happens to us at any time, even to ourselves. Young people from far away come to Taipei to work hard, repeating the same life day after day, saying that they cherish hope, but they don't know whether that hope can be realized? So do you want to have a date so easily or even a little casually? Let's hold hands without sharing secrets and singing babalaba ~ just relax and even indulge to take a vacation and travel with me with your imagination.

Huang's light and cheerful melody, connected with the smooth and witty rap of the egg castle, said that although it was a little helpless in life, her body jumped up unconsciously.

EP also included the classic song "young people keep worrying" of egg castle. As the last roof Music Festival continued to reverberate, they decided to recreate the atmosphere of the day and complete the song by synchronous recording. Compared with the original hip-hop version, the wooden guitar version rearranged by Huang Yu makes the young people's worries more endless and sad.

Even in the era of mix and match, the cross-border cooperation between Huang Yu and Danpu is still amazing. It's super pleasant to hear. It's worth listening to whether it's live or recorded. Follow the music of egg yolk, let yourself have a good "holiday"!
