Interview with CASH

Thanks a lot again to Vicky, Ivy and Angelina for doing and arranging the interview.

The full pdf version of this magazine can be downloaded from http://www.cash.org.hk/ .


P.S.: Just a minor clarification that I was encouraged by a friend to send demos to music publishers in Taiwan (rather than being introduced to them).

Thanks very much, Johnny! Happy to know you especially like 不方便的真相!

The CASH video interviews were quite detailed - it was a pleasure to have that opportunity to share some views, although I'm still relatively new in this field.

Last year, I have been having a very low 創作量 due to various other things, but a new song I composed will be released soon. Hope you'll like it!

其實一首歌的創作過程係點架?
作完詞先編曲定係……?

Christopher,唔知你會唔會想自己編曲?
雖然同你合作的編曲都好好,
但係如果自己編曲會唔會更配合?

原諒我問你甘多問題 = =

According to what I know, composition of melody normally happens first, after which it comes to lyrics-writing and then arrangement. Sometimes, especially for Mandarin songs, some writers like to compose melodies based on lyrics that already exist. (I tried that a couple of times too; also, I once wrote both the melody and lyrics of an English song simultaneously, though these have not been published yet.) On the other hand, I heard of cases in which arrangement was available before lyrics writing took place.

I arranged a song of mine published in a non-commercial CD some years ago. I sure agree there are good things about arranging one's own works, but it isn't something I plan to do for the time being. So far, I do like the music arrangement done by other musicians for most of my songs - it's very fortunate that most arrangers with whom I had the chance to cooperate were highly professional and attentive to details :)

你终於找到新地方繼續寫BLOG...太好了
其實我之前係你個舊BLOG問過條問題,好可惜你個BLOG關閉左....
條問題係:

我知一首流行曲的結構多數係verse->chrous->verse->chrous->chrous
但係我又成日聽到其他人話流行曲的曲式多數係ABAB,ABACA,ABA,AABB 等等
可否解釋一下,或者可以用你既歌做例子都可以...年度之歌,搜神記,披星戴月etc 並希望可以用中文解釋,因為本人英文很差

浪費了你的時間,真的不好意思,但呢條問題真的諗左好耐都諗唔通

多謝你作的《一絲不掛》!
繼續聽……

Christopher, I just watched your interview on CASH Flow. Congratulations and thanks for the encouragement. I'm a signed songwriter but haven't been published yet. My styles are all over the place now and I really admire how your songs are consistent yet different.

If you have time, please give me some feedback.

Thank you for your kind words, Jony. I like the songs you wrote, which are pleasant to listen to! Also glad to notice many of your songs are of Christian themes. Keep composing! I look forward to hearing more of your new songs in future.
