Yi people's works

Call of the Wild —— [Made by Yi People I]

In 2000, the first album "Made by Yi People" with the theme of courtship caused quite a shock in the music world. This is a wild and intense album. The Yi people have created perfect harmony, just like the voice from nature, which can penetrate people's souls and purify people's hearts.

Real songs are emotional, externalizing the joys and sorrows of life, not created out of thin air. The works created by the Yi people reflect their spirituality and talent for music. These works are simple and beautiful, unique to folk songs and have many voices. Songs are different from pentatonic styles, which often change tones at will, and at the same time pay enough attention to rhythm; Their music follows its own mysterious laws, allowing emotions that can only be brewed between Liangshan mountains and rivers. Of course, the most wonderful thing is the beauty of melancholy meditation in slow songs, refusing to be hysterical, copying and grandstanding, and refusing to rashly advance to the tonic of the song; Fast songs are full of primitive joy and worship of nature, without any trace of urban chaos.

The works in "Made by Yi People I" are full of popular temperament in melody, lyrics and singing, which shows that the founder Habu has found the best creative point. Knowing that mountains and tigers are full of electronic sounds, the lyrics have strange melodies, proverbs are satirical and the perspective is novel; "I want you" is unscrupulously tuned, but it is very pleasant and highly audible. Qubihabu's chanting aria is intertwined with A Mu's treble, which has a distinct personality. The Beggar's sad and beautiful feelings are still audible, with regular structure and rich levels, and its singing is close to the ideal state. Others, such as "Let me in", are typical fast songs with Yi flavor. "Too late" is also a popular song with great potential, and its artistic conception is very beautiful; Ancient vulture, storm? Lightning? Nosu is a mythical work, modern avant-garde, breaking through the limitations of similar works in the past, and the lyrics are very particular; Even "Homesickness Song", a seemingly ordinary work in the album, has no worldly affectation and simplicity, which makes people feel shocked.

Flying Dreams —— [Made by Yi People II]

200 1 September, in the golden autumn of harvest, II made by Yi people was presented to the world in a fresh style. Judging from the mental journey of the Yi people, their career is on the right track during this period and they are full of beautiful expectations for the future. So the main color of the whole album is full of romantic idealism.

The title song of the album-"Little Three in Caotang" is a story with illusory color, full of longing for pure and simple life and love. Between the mountains and the dense forest, there is a simple thatched cottage, and there is a virtuous, beautiful and loyal hostess who lives a primitive and simple life. What a charming and beautiful picture! "After the rainbow, the sky became bluer, and I walked into the beautiful thatched cottage in the mountains." "Dream, don't want to wake up, because it's too beautiful to wake up." If this is an ideal dream, then "Goddess of Beauty" is directly born out of a strange dream of Habu, with mumbling lyrics, strange and beautiful music and psychedelic colors.

Dreams are a mysterious world for Yi people. It is a tunnel that leads the Yi people to cross the time-space barrier and lead to the past and future. For thousands of years, Yi people have used dreams to predict the future and divine good or bad luck. The closer to the original village, the more accurate this instinct is. This almost special function is hidden in the vast majority of Yi people. At the same time, in a city alienated by commercial materials, dreams are often a quiet spiritual harbor. Jumping bonfires, mellow spirit and beautiful love songs are all elements of building a dream spiritual home, and they have also become the embodiment of creation.

Their musical style in this period is jumping, with a feeling of freewheeling and beautiful sincerity. As Habu said, "As long as we can think about it for one day, our style will change constantly. If one day, people say that a song was written by Yi people, it means that we have stopped and it is difficult to make new breakthroughs and progress.

Infinite love-[Mom]

June, 5438+October, 2003 10, the affectionate "Made by Yi People III" came out. Up to now, the Yi people have kept the record of releasing a new album every year for three consecutive years, which is rare in the original music in the domestic music circle. What's more worth mentioning is that the sales of all three albums are not bad.

The title song "Mom" of this album touched the hearts of all wanderers with the warmth of maternal love. This song instantly spread all over the country, becoming the song with the highest on-demand rate at that time, and still tops the list of on-demand songs on Mother's Day every year. Imagine that we are running in a busy world. Who doesn't want to enjoy family happiness with her mother at home? But for the sake of distant dreams and not to disappoint her, we must temporarily give up our family and stay away from home, and her mother will always be the bright light in the wandering night. The eternal theme, unique expression and beautiful melody touched the most sensitive nerves of listeners and caused the widespread spread of songs.

In artistic creation, it is sometimes difficult to achieve positive results on purpose, and sometimes casual inspiration becomes immortal works. "Mom" is a good work that was inadvertently created. At a small party, Habu picked up his guitar and hummed at will. My friend thought it was very interesting, so he recorded it and filled in the lyrics. The arrangement of "Mom" is also elegant, with only three harpsichords, a tambourine and a sand hammer. The image of mother in MTV MTV MTV is played by Haber and Harry's mother. The beautiful and kind image is real and touching. "I am old, people are old" has been mentioned many times by Yi people, and this song is dedicated to all mothers in the world. But the emotional source of his creation is his mother's infinite love for them. Whether they succeed or fail, whether they are poor or rich, their mothers are silently supporting them. Therefore, after success, in their leisure time, their mother is the person they are most concerned about and the home of their affection.

I saw it.

Pursuit of perfection-[see]

After two years of precipitation, the fourth album made by Yi people has finally come out grandly with people's warm expectation. If the first album made by Yi people is a wild country folk song; The second album progressive rock is different; The third album is simple and simple; The fourth album is full of images, pursuing aestheticism in style and paying more attention to the beauty of melody. Every album has a lot of remarkable points, and several works are vital and can be handed down many years later. Wild-avant-garde-simplicity-aesthetics not only reflects the changing track of Yi people's manufacturing style, but also reflects their mental journey.

In the past two years, the Yi people's enthusiasm for music and understanding of life have been increasing day by day, and they have been looking for their ideal musical state. The new album with "Beautiful Girl" as the title song gives a strong answer to this. The understanding and interpretation of different people's emotions in different times has never stopped, and art forms around this theme have emerged one after another. The song "Beautiful Girl" is full of the most sincere feelings created by the Yi people, and it has written a series of sad chapters, which is undoubtedly a beautiful flower that interprets the eternal theme from a new perspective. It sounds not only vulgar, but also very resistant to listening and not easy to do. We can clearly feel the truest, most primitive sincerity and simplicity from the depths of our hearts from the songs created by the Yi people. The arrangement of music has been greatly improved. The music style is magnificent, with the shock of king's demeanor, but it is also euphemistic and lyrical. Coupled with Ma Touqin's exotic customs, it appropriately expresses the suffocating desolation and sadness. Yi people inherited the original harmony advantage in singing, and gave full play to the harmony advantage in new songs.

It can be said that the fourth album is a milestone in the development of Yi music creation. Every song in the album is a beautiful painting, which not only gives people a shock in hearing, but also gives people visual enjoyment. For example, "Seeing" depicts a peaceful, harmonious and beautiful human beauty with a dove flying and children playing freely. There are pictures in the song, and there are songs in the picture, which complement each other and are beautiful. On the one hand, this is the aesthetic artistic orientation pursued by Yi people's manufacturing, and it is also a new creative realm; On the other hand, it is related to Habu's artistic background. In painting, he expresses the feelings and artistic conception of the creator with the help of pictures and colors.

True art must pay attention to the changes of the world and the real society and reflect the main theme of the times. This is the quality that all responsible art creators must possess, and it is also the key to endowing art with vitality. Different from the previous three albums, the new album is closer to and pays more attention to social existence. In addition to beautiful works such as Beautiful Girl, A Niu and Love Song, which interpret the emotional world with a peaceful mind, Seeing plays an important role in this album, which can be interpreted as a public service song aimed at begging for peace and protecting a beautiful home. Baby in the Mountain reflects the yearning and dreams of children in poor mountainous areas, and is in line with their spirit of caring for and helping out-of-school children to go to school. In July, 2003, during the Torch Festival, they went to Ninglang Yi Autonomous County, Yunnan Province to give a benefit performance, and donated 6.5438+0.3 million yuan to set up a "Yi People Made Hope Primary School" in the local area. CCTV-3 "Love World" program group tracked this all the way. Now they are also long-term donors of the annual "anonymous scholarship", and together with their friends, they support 90 students in Yunnan minority areas every year. If the sense of return runs through the creation of Yi people, it is a return of social responsibility.

There are some striking highlights in the new album. First of all, the Yi people have added a new member-Mu Nai. He has a unique voice, which is emotional, transparent and infectious, and it is easy to drive the listener's emotions. Coupled with the original bel canto, it can be said that it is the icing on the cake for the Yi people. Secondly, Zheng Jun, a famous musician, is the producer of this album, so he feels the rock passion and strong sense of rhythm from Zheng Jun music in the new album, and these diversified factors are bound to make the music made by the Yi people blossom in this waiting season.

return

After four years' careful construction, Yi people made an album called "Return", which is a veritable return, and our favorite Scorpio group Yi people made it back.

The elements used in the album design are all oil paintings reflecting the life of the Yi people. All the oil paintings were painted by Habu, a member of Yi manufacturing group. Four of the songs were joined by Qu Biao, a famous folk singer and national first-class actor.

This time, the Yi people put aside their wild posture, complicated skills and harmony. This time, they want to return to the sunny sky in the south, the fresh and humid air in their hometown, and the cradle of pastoral and love songs in their memories.

This is an unusual road to return. The times are rushing to the future in the crowd. And a sensitive mind can't follow the fashion that gets old in an instant. Who should the singer sing to? What should I sing? Obviously, the Yi people have found their own answers. They found their way with simple, smooth and affectionate songs. In a fashionable city, this is obviously an unusual gesture and an unusual return trip. ?

Maybe none of this matters. The important thing is that at that time, we just forgot the hustle and bustle of today. Yi people should have the courage to say: all our wasted youth is left in these melodies.
