Chapter 113: Ultraman Song

Ultraman's soundtrack is truly amazing.
Perhaps Tsuburaya has one or another problem, but in his attitude towards the works, he absolutely did not perfuse the audience.
Even the new generation being vilified by others is not entirely undesirable.
When it comes to the soundtrack of Tsuburaya, five iconic composers have to be mentioned.
The five are Toru Fuyuki, Tatsumi Yano, Toshihiko Sahashi, Kenji Kawai and Takao Konishi.
There are many composers who have worked with Tsuburaya, but these five are the most representative.
Fuyuki Toru is a symbol of Showa Oku, and is known as the "Father of Ultraman Music" in Neon. He is responsible for the production of many Showa "Ultraman" works and Gauss' partial music.
Yano Tatsumi may be the most well-known of these four, and is responsible for the production of a series of Heisei's music such as Tiga Dina. Tiga’s TV theme song "Takemehigher" is composed by him.
Toshihiko Sahashi represents the post-Heisei era. He not only produced Pawat, Gaia, Mambius, and Super Eight theatrical version of music, but also produced a number of Kamen Rider music, including Sora. From this one.
Konishi Takao is the "Queen" composer of the late Tsuburaya, and the new generation from Ultraman Galactic to Ultraman Uub is all made by him.
As for Kenji Kawai, the business is too wide. Although he has also done special music, the number is not as many as the top four. The main masterpieces are the theater version of Nexus, Gyder and Cyro.
He also participated in the music of Kamen Rider Build.
The composing level of these five people is not good for Meng Lang as a music idiot. Anyway, he thinks Ultraman's music is pretty good.
But these five people are not the first generation of music composition, the first generation of music composition is in charge of Miyauchi Kunirou.
This is a special photo music who has been forgotten by many Austrian fans!
"Godzilla", "Ultra Q", "Ultraman (First Generation, "Ultraman Jonias" all have his participation in the production.
Among Miyauchi Kunirou’s songs, the most well-known is the theme song "Ultraman's Song" from the opening of the original Ultraman.
without any exaggeration……
This song has influenced a generation!
Although the song is classic, it is definitely not possible to copy it as it is.
In the first generation of music production, Meng Lang gave it to the music team that had previously produced theme songs for many animation works.
The strength of this team is very strong!
But being strong does not mean that you can make music that satisfies Party A. For example, now, Meng Lang is dissatisfied with the theme song they made, so he personally hummed a section of "Ultraman Song"!
After Meng Lang hummed the basic tune, Li Tianming, the musician in charge of the composition, picked up his notes and played it on the piano.
After playing, he seemed to be inspired, and ignored Meng Lang on the side, and entered into a working state without anyone else.
Meng Lang didn't urge him either. After making sure that he would not be able to get the finished product for a while, he turned and left silently.
Three days later, Li Tianming submitted a demo of lyrics and music to him.
Meng Lang listened for a while and found that the version of this piece was very different from the version he hummed, like a magical revision after re-arranging the song of "Ultraman".
The genre is more burning and enthusiastic, if the version he hummed is like a girl whispering, then in this version it becomes a macho roar!
The words are also filled in:
In this starry universe
What kind of miracle is there?
UItraman!
Explore the miracle of this starry sky
Kingdom of Light, Hero of the Universe
Strengthen the guardian faith in the heart
coming! Our Ultraman!
Fight! Even with scars!
(For this blue planet)
Guard, the peace of the universe!
(Stagger your hands into a cross)
Burn life, just for this moment
In this sunset
Oh~UItraman!
The hero of light is here~! !
The effect of the demo was almost broken. After listening, Meng Lang satisfactorily paid the balance and asked Wang Kui to find a good singer to sing.
Although the title of the song is still called Ultraman Song, this version of Ultraman Song has completely changed its appearance.
Abandoning the full "Showa" masculine atmosphere of the original version, it is converted into a tune that is more in line with the positioning of the current era, which sounds good.
Of course, the original "Song of Ultraman" can't be wasted, it can be made into a neon version of the theme song!
If the neon kids think this song is old-fashioned, it doesn't matter, just give it to TBS.
Just say that the neon version of "Ultraman's Song" is produced by TBS and has nothing to do with PD.
Arranged properly!
In addition to the theme song, there are also ending songs, interludes and other music to be produced.
But this part of the requirements is much lower, at least not as time-consuming and laborious as the theme song.
The first generation of music was being produced intensively, and the leather case and model set were not idle.
Monster leather case is a big project!
There are currently five types of monster holsters on the market, namely, the cosmic monster Bermuda, the cosmic ninja Baltan, the transparent monster Nelonga, the underwater ape man, and the strange plant Green Mons.
There are more than 30 types of monster holsters that have not yet appeared!
This is a very scary number!
Even if the holster model group maintains the high workload of 996, the production progress of the holster still cannot keep up with the filming schedule of the crew.
As a last resort, the crew had to temporarily suspend work after the first five episodes were filmed, waiting for the leather case production team to provide new leather cases.
The holster being made is the sea beast Guthra holster, which is an undersea monster that looks like a "fat-headed fish". The prototype is Bida in Chapter 26 of "Alter Q".
Speaking of, most of the original monster prototypes came from "Alt Q".
This is the problem!
In the first generation of Tsuburaya, the leather case of the "Alter Q" in the warehouse can be changed and used. As for Meng Lang, he didn't shoot the Alter Q, and there was no ready-made leather case available. Every monster had to make a new leather case. The design, modification, and production process could not keep up with the shooting progress.
"Mr. Meng, how about we change the shape of the holster that we played earlier to make do with it?"
Seeing that this was too slow, Wang Kui couldn't help proposing.
Meng Lang was silent.
Changing the holster is a bad habit, he does not need money to do this kind of thing?
"Take the Bermuda leather case and change it into a brain wave monster Yang Ge!"
Sorry Tsuburaya-san~EbookFREE.me~ I, Meng Zi, blamed you!
It feels so cool to change the leather case!
No wonder Tsuburaya always likes to let classic monsters come out to make soy sauce, it turns out that changing the leather case will really feel happy!
Even if the first generation hasn't finished filming yet, Meng Lang has already decided and will learn from Tsuburaya-san.
Can monsters have relatives? !
Otto brothers can have them, why can't there be monster brothers?
Since it is the monster brother, it makes sense to look almost like it.
After deciding on the recycling and reuse plan of the monster leather case, Meng Lang seemed to have thought of something, and asked the designer: "Where is Zuofei's leather case?"
"Zoffie leather cases have not yet started, our work is mainly to design and make monster leather cases..."
