I finally learned from an American friend that Cocteau is a bird, and twin means twins.
What is Cocteau? This problem is unknown due to language barriers. It is generally an uncommon bird. Yu
Cocteau twin of Scotland has a Chinese name today-double-born bird. In this way, I realized something, and now I think of it.
Come, isn't it just like a rare bird singing, the song of the band's lead singer, arbeth Fraser?
Cocteau twin was founded in early 1980s. It is a band of two male and one female, and occasionally saved as a band of two.
In. From the compilation point of view, this is an extremely simple band, a guitar, a bass, and a female voice. This
The full content of the band. However, in terms of the auditory effect, you can never imagine it as a compilation, or even a pure
Guitar band. In the 4ad Chinese album, there is such a line: Cocteau twin is a low-key string kaishanzu, "good at use
Orchestra techniques create a gloomy melody ". As a result, the dual-born birds use a string. In fact, the band is stacked
Is a bit like the background of the string, it is built up with a guitar. The band's guitar player, Robin garthrie, has a large number
Noise, latency, Echo, deformation, electric piano bow and other techniques, he uses the studio effect, to create a multi-layer overlapping music environment. Later
Enya also uses similar techniques, instead of guitar, to use beautiful things such as organ and voice.
What else can I do if I can't express the sound that the lead singer of the twins rarely plays? Without such a tone
It does not exist. However, the actual situation is just like this. In the face of the unparalleled voice of Ms. Fraser, words are powerless.
So I can only talk about anything else. Let alone listen to your ears.
From 1982 to 1996, there were 9 dual-born birds, respectively garlands, not including replays and selections.
(1982), head over heels (1983), treasure (1984), the pink oparque
(1985), victorialand (1986), blue bell knoll (1988), heavenor las
Vegas (1990), four-calendar cafe (1993), and milk & kisses (1996 ). Generally speaking
These works are completely divided into three stages in style: one or two of them are post-punk, which follows the techniques of a lot of punk music.
From treasure to heaven or Las Vegas is the second stage. A pair of alive birds stand out as a unique music.
And gradually became brighter. Since 1991, the band left 4 AD and switched to Capitol. The music became brighter.
Closed bands gradually become open.
Let's go back to 1982.
The most important thing in 1982 was the transformation of punk music. A rebellion that once aimed at impact and simplicity
Happy, now we are beginning to step in the profound direction. The jam was dissolved, and Joy Divison became a new order public fantasy company.
(PLI) began to become nice, and some enchanting bands, such as the ghost alliance, Cultural Club, and soft cell emerged. This time
A record named Garland appeared on the market. The author is a strange name, Cocteau twin.
No member portraits, no lyrics, only three names are printed on the cover pages, and no one knows them.
The music of garlands attracted the attention of rigorous fans and soon rose to the second place in the UK standalone list. It is houpeng
Ke was definitely different from the post-punk. Simply put, it is very isolated. Garlands is characterized by its thick black paste
. Guitar uses two kinds of sounds: the low dark noise of the noisy and fluctuating background effect and the sharp long-beam in the background.
But all the machines are on. Fraser sends
The slogan that has never been used again in future songs. In the dark background, this sound is illusory, desolate, and very
Obviously, garlands is a non-human space.
A year later, the twins again showed up with head over heels. The block noise of the noise column weakens the new back
The scene is like the line of the machine tone, the impact of metal, the sliding car walking at night, the echo of the basket, Fraser's voice
Later. Often, guitar uses electronic noise and lost phoneme to pull out a Music Melody.
For example, the guitar is more like an industrial pipe string, but it has no sound .)
To the final song, it is not like a chord, but as if it is left, and the drum machine is always in front of the cold, hitting the dark
. From this dark background, the girl's half-person and half-fairy singing song is just a bit strange and cool.
Treasure has never heard of it, so I dare not talk about it. Three years later, movie and changed as soon as it was opened. Shoushouqu "lazy
Calm ", the virtual imitation Orchestra, the cold blow of sax, there is only a slide in the workshop to move around at night. Next we will find that
Birds have already flown out of the workshop, and of course they have not yet flown out of the machine era. Music is no longer chaotic and clean, and music is refreshed with a number of melody lines.
They are different from each other.
The moon & the melodies is still mechanical without noise. The feature of the whole song set is that almost all songs
The same section is used to continuously form long sentences. Fraser gently, low, and continuously sings them,
With the beautiful high to the extreme, but it is light to the extreme of the false sound, while talking to myself, while making a fog, the recording is like this
It's the end of an empty Victoria. Maybe this is a country built in the air.
Blue Bell knoll begins to become a reality, which is quite different from the previous soft voice. To learn more
The beautiful movie arbeth Fraser is the best start. In many songs such as the title song, Fraser has a long time to drag
The sound is broken into several segments, and the wonderful thing is the beautiful echo of the shadows. The low-definition chorus lags behind the music and the super-pulling main.
A sharp contrast between audio. At last, Gigi showed a sound like Gigi. In some places, the noise also turned back, but it became
The dazzling appearance of Xiangjia's amazing Fraser. To be honest, I can't talk about anything other than beauty. The blue bell rings and the Blue Bell Rings
May all lovers in the world hear this beautiful album.
The bright twin birds flew to heavenor Las Vegas in 1990. This is a bit like a Victoria Land.
Square, even more continuous, longer, and more beautiful longle sentences, also composed of a model or repeated melody, machine Ring
This is also the combination of environment, singing is a combination of the characteristics of the first two records. The stream and the stream are graceful and smooth,
The noise and singing of the fly, the color and light of the fly, and the night walk of the slide are far away. "Machine hours
", This judgment can summarize every page, but it is the most appropriate.
From here, the twins flew away from his birthplace, 4ad, to find a bigger nest, no matter who it chooses, this time it wants
Closer to the world. Sure enough, starting from four-calendar cafe to milk & kisses
Guitar, drum like a drum, singing like a song, but it is really beautiful, so you still don't close the praise to praise-this proud God bird
It is still the most beautiful bird that proudly views the hundred birds. What impressed me the most, in 14 years
The double-born birds made the Momo album, but they did not show their faces at once. They even did not show their names in a few albums.
In the creation and production column, only Cocteau twin is written. Don't worry about it. As long as you focus on the music itself, this is not the most
Good attitude?
So today, I still don't know any lyrics sung by the twins. Despite regret, it also carries
Fortunately, maybe this is the best outcome. It's better than foreigners who are proficient in English. Cocteau twin sounds like a real phantom.
Is there anything better than listening to a bird's voice?
......
When a person cannot learn so much nutrition from his life experiences, those great works of art will be the best camp.
Supplement.
The music you don't like is not necessarily looked down on.
The so-called practice is to turn yourself (the whole person is good, just the spirit is good) to a black and cold isolated world
The place was depressed for many days, and then suddenly I understood everything one day ...... (To put it bluntly, it's just a cool)
