How do you balance rap, vocals, and violin when working on a song?<\/p>\n
ALL\u2019N: As a K-pop solo artist, I wanted to create more contrast by using rap, vocals, and violin almost like different members within the same song, rather than filling three minutes with one tone. I use a deeper tone for rap, a softer tone for vocals, and the violin as another voice.<\/p>\n
The balance changes from song to song. Rather than deciding on a fixed percentage, I keep asking myself, \u201cWhich voice should lead this part?\u201d and adjust each element according to what works best for the song.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
What is the meaning behind your fandom name, \u201cN\u2019CORE,\u201d and what does it mean to you?<\/p>\n
ALL\u2019N: N\u2019CORE combines the meanings of \u201cencore\u201d and \u201ccore.\u201d Like an audience asking for one more song after a performance, they are the people who want to keep listening to my music, while \u201ccore\u201d represents the people who have been by my side from the beginning.<\/p>\n
The belief N\u2019CORE gives me is what motivates me to dream higher, and I hope that someday I can give that same belief back to my fans.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Is there an artist you would particularly like to work with in the future?<\/p>\n
ALL\u2019N: Henry Lau. He was one of the artists who showed me from a young age that the violin could<\/p>\n
exist within K-pop, so making music with him someday would be personally very meaningful to me.<\/p>\n
Of course, I am also open to unexpected collaborations that could show new possibilities for the violin through combinations people might not normally expect.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Now that you have completed your debut promotions, what are your plans for the remainder of the year?<\/p>\n
ALL\u2019N: I have a short, high-energy song planned for a surprise release in September. I also have various songs in progress, from tracks I started years ago and am revisiting to completely new music.<\/p>\n
Just because I introduced myself as a \u201cviolin-driven K-pop\u201d artist doesn\u2019t mean I want every song to sound the same. I want to use each song to show how far the violin can continue to expand.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ultimately, what kind of artist do you hope people will remember ALL\u2019N as? And is there anything you would like to say to your fans?<\/p>\n
ALL\u2019N: I hope people remember ALL\u2019N as an artist who gave everything he had and continued to build his own path until the very end. I am always grateful to N\u2019CORE, and because you believe in me while I am still building this story, I want to repay that belief through better music and performances.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"ALL\u2019N Image Credit: Zoo Yonggyun (\uc8fc\uc6a9\uade0) How do you balance rap, vocals, and violin when working on a…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":870450,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[115682,49,48,75,4481,154306,341,15111],"class_list":["post-870449","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-music","tag-billboard-gallery","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-entertainment","tag-genre-kpop","tag-k-pop-rookie-of-the-month","tag-music","tag-music-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/870449","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=870449"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/870449\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/870450"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=870449"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=870449"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=870449"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
