黑暗迷宮...的延續

我在很多年以前,(1993,17年了)寫過一首歌,
由貝斯手洪志祥先生填詞後,取名"黑暗迷宮".
且收錄於"黃火"首張演唱會專輯裏.
當時的那個團,其實在北馬稍有名氣,
後來又得馬來西亞本地唱片公司簽下,發過一張合輯.
發完合輯完成宣傳工作後,
洪志祥以個人原因離隊,
雖得許天佑加入替代貝斯手,
樂團因失去才子洪志祥而創作減量.
那段時間,樂團只能創作出"城市判官", "叛軍",
"西域", "音"等零散作品.
只可惜,樂團成員不夠堅持,最終解散.

樂團解散之後,我一直沒放棄組團的決心.
另組了一個新團,"WhiteNoise".
後來在某個偶然之下,WhiteNoise決定改編"黑暗迷宮",
重新填詞改名"Masa"(前WhiteNoise經理人名字).

這就是"黑暗迷宮"的延續.
此曲送給不在上舞台的洪志祥先生

Everyday I See The Light We Pray

Eveyday I see the light we pray


Everynight I hear the sound we play


Everynote we hit remains


Everyword we sing be great

Video Editing

いつもライブをやる時、友人たちがビデオを撮ってくれる。
でも、最大の問題は皆が別々のビデオカメラを使っている。
プロの24p、普通の30p、FlipHD、あるいは携帯電話15fps...

これらのビデオの編集は、フォーマットを統一するのが非常に
大きなプロブレムだ。特定のでは、Flipだけのコーデックは
フォーマットを変換しないと、Adobe Premiereを使用することができないし、
非常に長い時間がかかる。

もう一つの問題は、ビデオカメラのマイクだけなので、その音はすごく酷い。
理想的には、PAのマイクで録って、次にビデオの同期。

だけど、俺らはホントに友人がサポートしてくれるから、
撮影もしてくれるから感謝感謝!!!

この曲は今年の年明けライブでやった一曲、"レジェンド"。


每次演出,一些朋友都會幫我們拍Video,
可是,最大的問題是,每個人都使用不一樣的Camcorder.
有專業24p,傻瓜30p,FlipHD,甚至也有手機15fps...

剪接這一些各種不同格式的影片是非常大的工程.
尤其Flip是使用Adobe Premiere所不懂得codec,
單是格式轉換就得花很長的時間.

另一個問題是,單靠Camcorder上的Mic收音的話,音效是非常差的.
最理想的是由PA收音,再與影片同步處理.

不過,我們還是很感謝來支持的朋友,
也非常感激為我們拍影片的朋友們!!!

這是今年live的其中一首歌曲,「Legend」.

WhiteNoise blog kickoff!

Like everyone else, I have always wanted to start a blog.
But though beside work, the time that I spend on my own facebook, myspace, mixi, and all other social network sites has taken away all my time. Plus, I did not have a topic I would be interested to write about. Recently the band that I am in has finished recorded our first EP and had a great show during the New Year of 2010, on January 2nd. We start putting up online promotion on myspace account, facebook pages and posted songs demo on soundclick, thus prompted me to want to write a blog on my band, the band that has my passion in music, "WhiteNoise".

WhiteNoise is a band base in San Francisco, with Sayzar on rap, Yumi on vocal, Woei on guitar, Yosuke on bass and Showgo on the drums. We consider our sound as a blend of Hip-Hop and Hard Rock rythm. Yosuke who is also the band leader came from a background of Hip-Hop bassist, has very good sense of groove and lays outstanding bass line over Showgo's splendid drums foundation. Sayzar who writes incredible lyrics always able to come up with something that spice up the music.
