In 23 years, more than 10,000 vinyl records are collected, Feng Zhiwen: beautiful time flowing in vinyl records

33 turns every minute and 25 minutes on each side. For Feng Zhiwen, who loves to collect vinyl records, this is a familiar music scene. He has collected more than 10,000 vinyl records, and is usually considered a fans. However, he said that music is just superficial, and more importantly, there is a living aesthetics and life temperature flowing in vinyl records.

On the 7th birthday of 7th birthday

Feng Zhiwen, born in 1972, is an environmental art designer. He is currently chairman of the chairman of the cultural communication institution. He has served as a guest host of the "Yue Listening Yue Yue Dian" program of the Radio of Shenzhen. The hobby of collecting vinyl is closely related to his childhood memory.

"I have a gramophone left by my family. On my 7th birthday, my father bought me a vinyl record called" I Love My Little Flower Cat ", which was the first vinyl in my life. record."

When he was in junior high school, he had "new things" such as tape recorders and tapes. After that, it is CD. I was used to listening to CD's ears. One day in 1999 passed the second -hand record market, a long -lost voice suddenly touched Feng Zhiwen's memory. "At that time, a second -hand vinyl record ranged from 5 yuan to 30 yuan. All the money I could dominate was almost used to buy vinyl records." Feng Zhiwen's collection was out of control. Now 23 years have passed. The starting price of an ordinary vinyl record has also become more than 300 yuan, but his collection has not stopped, and more than 10,000 vinyl records basically cover the development of Chinese music.

Feng Zhiwen said that although vinyl records have a consumption threshold, it does not mean that you will spend a lot of money. There are millions of professional audio and hundreds of pieces of one -piece functions to meet the needs of entry. Listening to vinyl will never be outdated. On the circular carrier with fine texture, you can touch music, you can also listen to beautiful singing, and you can feel history, culture, aesthetics, and life.

Vinyl records flow out of simulation, showing the most beautiful details, with natural beauty, and digital music we often hear can only be regarded as crafts. "The density of sound sound is dense and the frequency width is wider. You can hear the friction details of the violin in the vinyl records, the tension of the piano, and the thick and natural sound. Ecological sound. This is also the reason why the CD sound is clean, but the reason why the ears will be tired for a long time. "

In addition, many CDs often use segmented formats when making, and the overallness of the work is destroyed. For example, Sanmao's music biography "Echo", vinyl records are connected in series with Sanmao's monologue, and it is integrated with music, but CD has omitted the monologue. In the past, the singer had to fully control the music works, singing from beginning to end in one breath, and the band had to cooperate on the spot. Now many steps are done with computers. Correspondingly, the requirements for singers are not as strict as before.

The vinyl flow is that music understands that life is life

With the changes of the times, vinyl records are phenomenon. Beginning in 2012, vinyl is more and more liked by young people.

Feng Zhiwen's role is not only a collector, but a cultural communicator. He positioned himself as a "product manager", that is, to open up music and culture from a unique perspective, and open a new chapter of perception of vinyl records.

Since 2003, Feng Zhiwen has hosted vinyl record exhibitions and tasting activities in Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Zhongshan and other places, and has reached hundreds of games. After a vinyl music sharing meeting, a female entrepreneur said, "I want to thank my parents that when I was young, I allowed me to listen to popular songs, so there were so many wonderful nights. Now it's my turn to me turn. Mother, I told my daughter every day, "Did you finish your homework and don't take a bath, hurry up to sleep." From now on, I want to give her daughter more space and let her listen to songs freely. " It is said that the change of the mother's mentality not only improved the parent -child relationship, but also made her daughter more active pursuing academic excellence.

Feng Zhiwen said that it is not difficult to insist on doing one thing. The key is meaningful and valuable. In the era of high -speed development, technology and business models, he felt that he had done a "thing that could not be solved by the Internet". The vinyl flows is music, and the listener understands life. At this time, vinyl returns to the meaning of a carrier itself.
