Chinese traditional songs

on the adventures of the group in Japan and offended fans

"Lena and Julia loved to talk in an interview that Vanya Shapovalova had such a conviction: the Japanese are crazy about porn films, let's say so, extremely young looking actresses. And this allegedly also played a role in the crazy success of the group, which at one time sold albums in Japan more than Madonna and The Beatles. The Japanese, as well as the Koreans with the Chinese, seemed very innocent, at least during the times of our promotion and Asian concerts. However, the rocky Japanese interpretation, after which Tatu lost the Japanese market, happened precisely because no one knew the culture and tradition. The girls (then also quite a girl) went to the direction of Vanya from the live broadcast of the most popular talk show, and the Japanese were terribly insulted. Well, not accepted by them. And they were offended not at the level of people from this talk show or host this show, but just all the Japanese fan base found such an act with disrespect, although in the morning the police blocked Tokyo Streets so that the group could get out of the hotel. And from the next morning, for a long time, the fans practically refused to buy the TATU discs. Managers of Label Universal were shocked. Therefore, when we arrived in Japan in 2005 to promote the second album, "Dangerous and Moving", everyone had one mantra: "We have to revoke the love of Japan." It seems to me that on that trip we all became a little Japanese, polite, punctual - do not find fault! I even learned to give and take a visit to Japanese - to stretch it with two hands with a small bowl of my head. In general, the Japanese fans "Tattoo" are wonderful! For the sake of justice I must say that I saw erotic fan manga with tatoes. But at concerts, the Japanese are not always emotional. May just stand and listen, without any dancing or just some movements and gestures. It seems to me that an artist is not easy to perform before such an externally discreet public. "

Pop musician Alexey Goman

about Asian fans, their manga portraits and love of the Chinese to Russian patriotic anthem

"I myself never had in China, and the love of the Chinese to my songs me, to be honest, surprising. But it is. I often write Chinese fans in Facebook and on the forum - through the Google translator they translate and send their messages. On twitter under my photos and posts, often a big correspondence in hieroglyphs. A few more than a few times, my manga portraits sent. And somehow I found a very funny roller on Youtyuba - Vitas's performance and mine mounted as if we sing together, although we never sang on the same scene. But Vitas in China is very popular - and I see them, too, also like me, so we were so compatible. There are many video with my performances and subtitles in Chinese. I, of course, in childhood, films about Kung Fu loved, but was not interested in especially Asian culture. It is funny that I like me so much, I basic songs are mostly about Russia. Maybe the fact is that such a Soviet retromb reminds them the general communist past. "

about work on the continuation of "Cheburashka" with the Japanese

"The continuation of" Cheburashka "Japanese director Makoto Nakamura filmed with Korean animators. And we were responsible for the whole creative part - script, animal, music, record actors. For several years we worked on correspondence, the Japanese team came to Moscow, and we went to Korea to the studio. It was so comfortable to work with them, as it rarely happens to. The Japanese is incredibly thorough and attentive to the details of the wizard. If you have been in Japan, you probably noticed that there is no literally nor the centimeter of the unclean land. There, even the urn is almost nowhere, but no one throws the garbage. The only thing that slowed our work is Japanese courtesy. At first, I wrote to me very long letters, in which I first went with careful and polite explanations, and then please change something. Then I asked them to write me easier, immediately in the case to speed up the work. They agreed, and everything went faster. Japanese colleagues were extremely attentive to me. They brought me all sorts of graceful touching things, including those decorated with Cheburashka. Recently, I was traveling to Japan - immediately led to dinner into a chic restaurant in a skyscraper. If I were a girl, I would think that I was careful for me - so they were miles. At their request, I watched everything in the spirit of Kachanova. The cartoon events unfold in the old provincial city, in which there is a zoo and climbing circus. We have painted the lake - it turned out a very cozy town, in which I would have been not a bit to live a little. Animation was a puppet, as in Kachanov's films, it was important to the Japanese that the cartoon would be like that if it were filmed at the same time, in Soviet times. Sometimes they had to adjust them a little, explain what we could not have. For example, initially in the script was the scene in which the Circus Director invites the girl to the restaurant. And then marries at all. In Japan, the age of consent is 13 years old, upon reaching his girl can do voluntarily sex, and nothing will happen to anyone. But, of course, in the film "In the Spirit of Kachanova", such a story could not be, and we left the director from the girl, and the gene and Cheburashka are friends with her completely innocent. "

about success in China and the fact that you should not sharpen this attention

"Accurate answer, why Vitas is so popular in China, probably no (in the official Chinese fan club singer consists of a million people, and in one of the Shanghai parks there is even his statue. - Approx. ed.) - Just, as always, worked the combination of his voice and bright appearance. The breakthrough happened in 2007 - there were a lot of television projects and the first big concerts, since then a convincing presence in the PRC began, and the first album was released, which in 10 days was Platinum, is even an ordinary event at all for China. There are in principle few foreign performers, and Vitasa was lucky in this regard, in such a classical pop genre he has almost no competition.

However, I never attached to some region, did not think with these categories - they just learned about Chinese success, and this seemed to be such an exotic, because it was so much to write so much. But also concerts and concerts in Japan, and in Korea, just the Chinese market is the largest, massive and active.

The main thing here is not to adapt and not lose your face. Quickly quickly, Vitas appeared several Chinese songs, in 2008, but there are few of them - only five, and they are not always performed at solo concerts; The basis is always his own songs that he performs as the author and composer. This is the most correct path of the artist - the basis of the repertoire must be the face of the artist, although we have songs and on Japanese, and on Korean. Of course, the East is an extremely important, interesting and promising market, but it is better to be in the east, and in the West, and at home - the world has not yet been in this sense of borders.

Today, in the category # EM_AI, we will return to the topic "Popular young groups from Asia", but this time there will be no teams in it. We will look at several teams from Korea and China, this will allow us to understand and evaluate whether the music develops in these countries how these public groups are open, and what the situation in general is there.

Popular groups Korea

Let's start first from Korea, since there are more information about her young performers. Yes, and the musical market is well developed.

The first group that we consider today will N.flying. This is a young group formed in 2013. What is it noteworthy? First, the genre style of execution - rock, pop rock, rap rock, alternative rock. Already on this description, you might think that this group will be similar to Linkin Park or Limp Bizkit. But this team has a strong influence of pop culture of the musical market. And this collective is a label project, so they are still "performing" the whims of the creator. What also puts the imprint on the work of the group - in fact, it is an idol, and the music has a bright color of the pop genre. But such a problem concerns most of their market: Popular young groups from Asia are most often created as projects of any labels, and it is the labels that contribute to the rapid takeoff of the teams.

But back to n.flying. Secondly, the group began its popularity to gain, if it is surprising, but in Japan. From 2013 to 2015, the team issued releases and gave concerts mainly for the Japanese public, and in 2015 the group released her debut album on the Korean scene. However, this option promotion is quite frequent. Why was such a step? Perhaps, in view of the fact that in Japan, the rock music market is being developed stronger, and the popularity on it is guaranteed popularity in Korea. But let's say for sure: n.flying is an ambitious and rather interesting group.

One of the best singles n.flying - Lonely:

Next Let's consider a lightweight indian duet lalasweet.. This is a female duet formed in 2013. We seemed interesting to the manner of filing their music and the ease that you feel after listening. The genre in which they work is pop rock. As in the situation with the group above, they had an influence environment. But looking at the video from their concert, we especially liked the atmosphere, which gives something jazz, chamber and warm. Quite interesting representatives of the Korean scene.

We listen to Lalasweet on Yandex.Music:

By the way, maybe you ask: why did Eatmusic chose exactly these groups? After all, popular young groups from Asia appear almost constantly, and you have been stylistically chosen such different teams! But we will reply: why not? There are many groups, you can consider anyone. But these groups in contrast look more interesting, showing that the Korea has teams of different directions and with different energy.

Popular groups of China

As it turned out, it was quite difficult to find young Chinese groups. Since we do not know Chinese language, in English (we are generally silent about the Russian language) is not easy to find. But still we coped with the task. As one day it was said, in China, the protest directions of rock music are more developed, which is associated with some rejection of power to rock music.

In our field of view, Taiwanese team 比茲卡西 Bizcashi.. The fact that this is noteworthy, so it is the fact that we have a maiden duet that performs songs in the post-rock genre (although after listening it is a feeling that it is rather post-pop). At the moment they released one EP in 2015, immediately after official education. What they hooked us, so it is a genre in which they play. And also vocals: he is very pleasant, calm, it seems that it is created specifically for such music. Since in China as a whole, they love post-directions, there are quite a few groups of such a segment.

We look at the live performance Bizcashi:

On this today we will focus on watching young groups from Asia. Next time we will try to find new teams from China, as well as look at other countries - Singapore and Thailand.
