Chapter 15 Canon X(3)

  That day, after returning to SunMusic, Aizawa Hidenori immediately gathered Goto Shinro and Ko-Aizawa, held a meeting for Sakai Noriko's development plan, and made the decision to gradually shift towards more mature songs. After all, in 1989, Miss Noriko would be coming of age! "Midori no Usagi" is a very good song, this might just be an opportunity!

  The encounter with Sakie Yagihara may have been just an episode, like snowflakes falling from the sky and melting quickly on the ground. Jerry thought everything would pass by like that, but after that day, her figure began to appear frequently around him, especially after he handed "Stardust's Gold Coin" over to TBS TV station.

  "Hello, Jerry!"

  ……

  "Jerry, nice to see you again!"

  ……

  "Here, Jerry, ice cream coffee!"

  ……

  "Jerry, is the tune of that song still available?"

  ……

  "Jerry, why are you pulling a long face?"

  ……

  A beautiful woman is hard to refuse! What's more, a young and vibrant beauty like Noriko Sakai?

  "Hey, Fazǐ xiǎo jiě (Miss Law), don't you need to read the script, rush the announcement, and go to Háng Yuè High School?"

  Sakai Noriko blinked her eyes, "Need it? But I'm here to rush the album, aren't I?"

  That's right, nothing is wrong! So Jerry was very helpless!

  To get closer to the young IC, Sazae Hidetora this old fox didn't use Sun Music's recording studio, and directly sent Sakai Noriko to Dream Music. This guy, didn't even consider Dream Music as a competitor at all! This made Ida Tatsumi very uncomfortable! Hmm, especially Jerry stimulated him a bit, "Hey~ Ida-kun, bring out some ability, look at Sazae-kun, he doesn't put you in his eyes at all!"

  "I'll make that guy know the power of Dream Music!"

  When he said this, Inada Tatsumi clenched his fist tightly.

  After throwing Sakai Noriko to Kobayashi Takeshi, Jerry walked towards B'z's studio with his hands in his pockets.

  Like X Japan, B'z doesn't need a producer, as the leader of B'z, Takahiro Matsumoto is already a great music producer himself, this guy has an out-of-this-world guitar skill, which is also why Jerry sought him out.

  When I stepped into the studio, Matsumoto Takahiro was biting his pen and frowning while plucking the strings. It was clear that he was composing!

  "Hello! Inaba-kun!"

  Takashi Matsumoto, lead vocalist of B'z, graduated from Yokohama National University's Faculty of Education Mathematics Department and was originally a mathematics teacher. He was discovered by Takahiro Matsumoto when he wanted to leave TM Network and become independent, thus embarking on his music career.

  He looked up to see Jerry walking in, and Inori Hoshi was slightly surprised. Who is this guy? However, he just nodded and didn't say anything. Yeah, Jerry knew that Inori Hoshi, who had just joined B'z, was a very quiet person and wouldn't say much except when singing.

  Hearing the sound, Matsubara Takahiro lifted his head and saw a little guy smiling at him.

  "Hello, Matsumoto-san! My name is Jerry, Jerry G. Roschelle."

  Looking at Jerry's outstretched hand, Matsumoto Takahiro was in a daze. Who is this guy? How did he get in here?

  "Matsumoto-kun, don't make such a weird face! Alright, if I disturbed your creation, then I apologize for not making an appointment in advance!"

  Matsumoto Takahiro was taken aback for a moment, then put down the tuner in his hand and reached out to shake Jerry's hand, "Oh~ I just thought it was strange because I don't seem to know you!"

  "That's right, not at all! You don't know me. But you do know Mr. Tsunku, don't you? He's the keyboardist of TM Network, and he's a good friend of mine, so I know you."

  "So it was like this! Then, Jerry, what did you want to find me for?"

  Jerry rubbed his nose, "Hmm, I think...I need your help!"

  ……

  When Takashi Matsumoto, Yoshiki, Hide, Sugizo and Taiji (the latter four being members of X) heard Jerry's idea, they were collectively stunned.

  Canon's ROCK!

  This is something nobody who plays rock has ever thought about.

  But it really has great appeal!

  Rock is criticism, revolution, rebellion, negation, subversion, overthrow, fanaticism, profundity, destruction, jade and stone burning together, thorough political opposition, collective liberation in life, fierce blasphemy on the basis of divine power, desperate struggle in an authoritarian society.

  And canon, originally meaning doctrine, religious law, rules, in music, is also a rule-based imitation of each voice part, breaking, this is a kind of mutual pursuit revolution!

  Let's overthrow the classics!

  Overturn elegance!

  No, it's not just a model of melody, it's a duel, it's a battle! What we need to interpret is a spirit!

  This idea undoubtedly thrilled Takahiro Matsumoto and X Japan's members!

  After reaching a common intention, composition became the next task.

  Bass, guitar, keyboard, drum set, piano, violin, viola, cello, this is almost a collision between classical and rock!

  The main theme uses canon counterpoint and imitation, with mutual imitation and collision between rock music and classical music, interspersed with their own solos, while drawing on Tonci Huljic's "Duel" and "Croatian Rhapsody", showcasing a theme of subversion and rebirth.

  Seeking an eternal truth in chaos!

  Finally, even Minami from Southern All Stars, Tetsuya Komuro and Takeshi Kobayashi also participated in the arrangement work!

  ……

  When Tsunku♂ pressed the first note and moved the whole song with a series of compound notes~

  When Jerry held a small violin, with double stops, staccato and bowing face to face against Sonta Kiyosuke (the captain of the Southern Cross Five) in a sound battle.

  When Matsumoto Takahiro is playing a guitar solo with his fingers flying and sliding without leaving any trace.

  When Yoshiki swings his hands and beats out a rhythm that stirs people's hearts with one beat after another.

  Apart from Jerry, they didn't know that this X-named piece was about to trigger a revolution, a revolution sweeping the global rock scene!
