Chapter 234 - 234. The band known as Starlights (2/2)
With drums, it provides the backbone. In addition, the traditional function of the bass guitar is to flesh out any bands' sound.
By being played in such a way that the percussive elements of the instrument reinforce and supply power and groove. This can apply to a busy rock or funk drum beat for example.
The instrument especially brings the thunder to any live performance.
This is specifically highlighted at live music concerts. When amplified and run through a decent sound rig, the very ground can be felt to resonate.
With the lower frequencies sounding upon the lightest touch of any of the four strings of this fascinating instrument.
The next and final member of the band was of course Lily, the main vocals and the songwriter.
The vocals of a band are the face of the band as people will think of her first when they will think about the band. She was also the spokesperson of the band.
Ren can see that Lily was the centre of the band and she was also the piece that completed the puzzle known as the Starlights.
'It's like a gathering of different persons who are ordinary alone but they become unique just by coming together.'
That was the conclusion Ren has on the band and he was right too.
”I still feel surreal sitting in front of Xin Ren. It's like a dream, one that I never saw before!”
Ren came back to reality when he heard that. He looked at the keyboardist, Ma Li who has said that.
”It's not a dream.”
”Yes, you are acting like he's a ghost or something.”
Lily said as he stared at her band members and Fu Tai replied to her.
”But he's a celebrity and a famous one. He was in the number one spot in the real-time search rankings just a few days ago.”
Ren suddenly remembered his unintentional fight with heavenly king, Xiao Yunhai.
He didn't want to think about it much. He was glad that the issue had died down because both Ren and Xiao Yunhai had ignored the matter.
As there was no way to intensify it, the fight created by the media can only die.
”We will be celebrities too after our next song will release.”
”Next song? You completed the song you were writing?”
”Yes, I completed it two days ago and it came out better than expected.”
Lily said while swinging around her legs. She was enjoying the accomplishment after writing the song.
”Actually, Lily called me today about how she wanted to play the song in front of me and I agreed. Then, I got your call and thought that it would be a good thing for you to listen to it. Sorry that I didn't tell you about it.”
Professor Che Shu said from the side.
”No, it's okay. Then, will you play the song?”
Ren said the last part of the sentence whole looking at Lily and she looked at her band members.
”So, should we play it?”
The band members looked at each other when they heard that and in the end, they all nodded their heads.
Ren had come here today to meet Professor Che Shu but being able to listen to a newly created song was like an icing on the cake for him.
