Dou Wei is slow, the era is fast

Twenty years ago, Dou Wei was fast, and the times were very slow;

Twenty years later, Dou Wei was slow, but the times were fast.

Recently, 52 -year -old Dou Wei quietly held the first online concert of life- "Chaojian · Xianwen Xianwen Xun Climbing Music".

Dou Wei said that its purpose is- "I hope everyone can avoid the reality of reality in the process of listening to the Xianwen and Music Club."

Opening the concert's track list, there are no "sunny sun" or "oh, good", all of which are the "fairy music" that the public is unknown -Qu Yuan's "Chu Ci", Song Yu's "Goddess Fu" , Bai Juyi's "Song of Everlasting", Wang Bo's "Teng Wang Pavilion Preface" ...

The concert lives on the account named "Jiuxiao Radio" in Netease Cloud Music. It has been broadcast for seven days and does not support face -exposed and popular song singing functions. In sharp contrast to most celebrities, the number of people with hundreds of millions of people is in sharp. After seven days, there are only hundreds of thousands of fans of "Jiuxiao Radio".

"Although I don't understand, it is very Dou Wei." This is the evaluation of most people.

But I have to say that this fairy -fluttering concert is really accurate cards on the label of Dou Wei's poster- "Xian".

"Mainstream Dou Wei" is absent for 20 years

People always use Dou Wei of Black Panther and Dou Wei of the Magic Rock to come to the current Dou Wei-

In the late 1980s and early 1990s, in the era of rock and roll in the Mainland, he was the lead singer of the popular band and sang "No E self -to -to -to -face" in the crowd of people; a song "Oh, good! "In the fullness, there are not only his talents, but also the right rebellion; at the red concert, he quietly blowing the flute, elegant and unique and independent ...

At that time, he lived as a girl who was fighting for imitation, and also became the girls.

Therefore, now that he has changed his body, it is confusing--

Not only did he confuse him to abandon the stunning lyrics, to toss the experimental music of "unknown cloud"; it was also confused about his shining appearance and began to become unpaid.

In fact, even if he was sitting with the superstar's fame and fortune all the way, he was slowly flattened by the years.

But now, more than 20 years have passed. Everyone's life has changed stars. In the hustle and bustle of the car and horses, people live more than a day, and they want to get more than a year. However, Dou Wei is always intoxicating into the world of music, always like a teenager. It is just that this "boy" has grown a little now -Feng Huajiao has stepped out of the crowds of crowds, and the rebellion in his bones has become more strong and strong.

People can't deny him, but they can't ignore him completely. It is easier to kick him out of the mainstream and treat him out of the mainstream and treat him as the mainstream.

As a result, when this mainstream music discourse could neither deny his accomplishment in the field of entertainment, but it was really unable to resonate with his advancement, people could only stay away from him in a "sealing immortal" way.

And all of this actually exposed Zhang Jie of the entertainment market today--

In the years of "mainstream Dou Wei is not present", the Chinese music scene played the previous set of concepts. Copy, duplicate, and drafts, the niche things were put on the big stage, and even began to set off a retro -old style ... In addition, it is difficult to advance forward.

A strange logic is being staged ——

People are busy surrounding and copying the "new old things", but they are involuntarily resisting "real new things", and even in the almost evasive approach to "pioneer", "experiment", "immortal", The name.

Escape "Fengxian"

Furthermore, if we jump out of the dimension of entertainment aesthetics to analyze the social psychology behind it, one of them is -in the era of mobile Internet, people are gradually accustomed to being accepted and educated in the torrent of information that are constantly poured and poured.

The consequences are that all beautiful and interesting contents are pushed to users by programs, platforms, and even rankings, and the reasons, dimensions, layered sense, and development history of these mainstream aesthetics are no longer actively asking.

And the existence of Dou Wei is like a mirror. He saw the different situations of the two identities of the former benchmark and the current rebels -when the aesthetics of hope is consistent with him, people surrounded him and worshiped him as God; When the aesthetics of the mainstream market passed by with him and no longer intersected, people even lacked the courage to question and explore. They could only be in the name of "Fengxian".

As long as Dou Wei "becomes a immortal", everything he does can "jump out of the Three Realms, not in the five elements." Since then, the mainstream aesthetics belong to the mainstream discourse management, and Dou Wei's aesthetic advancement belongs to the "immortal world" to manage it.

From this perspective, Dou Wei's "Being Fairy" is a dumb and escape from the rebels that popular aesthetics.

Dou Wei is slow, the era is fast

After the logic of "being fairy" along the above "style change", a very sharp question is that he wants to come out -Does Dou Wei really suddenly become "immortal"?

If we jump out of the spotlight, data and traffic ruler, Dou Wei's work trajectory is actually clearer than most people--

From the genius of tens of thousands of people in the stage, to the well -being of their own talents in the hutong, in the lack of the mainstream market for more than 20 years, "Mountains and Rivers" were published in 1998. The flow of emotions; in 2002, "Renewal of Flowers", which is derived from musicals, is a more fresh and elegant pure music. After that, the "Eight Duan Jin", "Ji Le Yi", "2012", "Up and down", "Golden Mantra", "Return to the Demon Realm", "Zang Soul Public Security", etc., incorporate the elements of dreams of dreams, gradually become completely personalized Writing consciousness; in 2019, he and musicians formed "Chaojian", trying to make many ancient poems into unique style of music; in 2020, he published an experimental "postpartum epidemic" ...

From the perspective of No. 1, compared with the hustle and bustle of the sculpted carving, Dou Wei's works are increasingly a kind of famous celebrity.

At the same time, a clear contrast surface- surface-

More than 20 years ago, Dou Wei was very fast, and the times were very slow. He was the pride of heaven in the stars; 20 years later, Dou Wei was slow, but the times were fast. He was forgotten in the corner of the Internet. One sentence "Xian'er". In a fast era, people need to be more exciting as condiments. This kind of thing used to have Dou Wei, but now he has been replaced with "experimental music" that cleans the soup.

In addition to "tremor" and "emotional value"

Coincidentally, for more than 20 years of "mainstream Dou Wei", our media and the media are very different from the past-

On the one hand, the centralized platforms such as Weibo and Douban occupy most of the public opinion; on the other hand, the popular and flat audiovisual dumping forms such as music variety shows and short videos of music are abnormal.

Although the small sub -cultural circle has begun to become popular in recent years, the entertainment market seems to have many more elements. But it is undeniable that most of the popular music still depends on the "irritating" of the song to drive the market.

At present, the most likely to hear the most easy -to -hear songs often use two extreme "emotional values" as a template -either filled the "fierce", "ruthless", "annoying world", and "emo" complex of the fast -paced era; Either to give the soul a sofa chair, the "sweet", "pet", and "cute" style of the special "sweet" style.

On the stage of many music variety shows, "not fried", "sweet and not sweet", "abuse", "handsome and handsome" and other shallow views have even become a ruler for measuring a song. On all these concepts, "imagery", "wind bones", and "artistic conception" originated from the fundamental and deeper aesthetic concepts of Huaxia culture, but they are often named in the name of obscure understanding and being tied up.

From this perspective, Dou Wei's works may be bringing a new thinking to the Great Entertainment Market -if you use "concept" and "concept" to create, you may be able to fight against the long -awaited "dual opposition". Essence

The difference between this "concept" and "emotional value" is that the former is a stable emotion with valuable support and long -term formation; and the latter is a strong audiovisual impact formed by lyrics. Moisture to the greatest extent, triggering a short "excitement", or describing more professional academic vocabulary- "shock".

Relying on the content of "emotional value" driven, constantly creating "trembling" in society, letting the tired people instantly filled the chicken blood, and the empty people were instantly filled with sugar. As everyone knows, these emotions are short -lived, and humans cannot be in "trembling" for a long time. The result of the result is nothing more than two aspects--

One is that the audience is even more inseparable from the "tremor", forming a long -term drinking cycle of drinking and quenching thirst. In the end, the whole society's aesthetic indulgence in a single copy cycle, and the newly produced "old things" were continuously produced from my brainwashing and self -intoxication.

Don't listen to Dou Wei

If we take another step, jump out of the big entertainment and look at the entire Internet public opinion field, the PTSD of this "emotional value" and "tremor" may be more serious-

Especially since the post -epidemic era, topics such as "swinging", "volume", and "confrontation between men and women" have almost flooded, which has made people smell. Recently, the word "town is a questioner" has stabbed a thousand waves, causing public anger and resonance.

I don't know when it comes faster than people's material living standards. More and more people have seen the world of five lights and ten colors, and they have to be pushed into the "volume" path with almost collective and unconscious anxiety, and the other part of the "falling behind" also soon "Buddha" and "" Buddha "," Lying flat "" and "rot" and other slogans formed their own camp.

It is consistent with the binary logic of the field of music and even the field of entertainment or "sweet" or "abuse", and people's outlook on life and values ​​are constantly condensed in the opposite direction of "volume" and "rot". In this extreme dual -opposed context, people seem to have the right to choose from, but they have been arranged, domesticated, and controlled by the tide.

In this way, the existence of a group of people like Dou Wei is like a rising banner on the dark sea. Let us see that in addition to rolling and rotten, we can also choose a different life with an attitude.

Therefore, we don't have to blindly listen to "Dou Wei", and we don't have to try to resonate with genius. For this era, more importantly than listening to songs, their attitudes and bones need to be seen urgently. Especially at the moment when platforms such as live broadcasts and podcasts are fell into a fierce, maybe "Dou Wei" who started testing the water is the reserve forces that break through the times.

And all this seems to be in line with Dou Wei in the introduction of "Chaojian · Xianwen Xianxia Climbing Club "-

"I hope everyone can avoid the reality of reality in the process of listening to the Xianwen Music Club."

In this era, there are too many people who are pursuing the "Six Pooths", and panic is a few shattered silver; there are too many people who want to use "enough moon" to advertise themselves, jump and jump around for the "moon". Essence

But in fact, in addition to empathy Dou Wei's music world, perhaps, we can also try his attitude towards his life.

No. 1 conclusion

Twenty years ago, the Chinese youth who saw the world seemed to see the world's strength, and he was eager to stand tall and run faster. Dou Wei, who encountered rock at the beginning of the sky, was at the beginning of the light.

Twenty years later, he experienced the epidemic, experienced questions, housing prices, destroying marriage, unemployment ... The youths of generations were dazzled in the hustle and bustle of the light and bustle of light, and "volume" in the fast -moving city was stopped. Perhaps one day, it will slow down the rush, and reunite with Dou Wei, who is riding "Little EMU". Just like what "Tomorrow is more long "-" The glory of the past is no longer important, tomorrow is more long. "
