「The Stylus Island 触笔岛」全新原创音乐辑 现已上架 这是我创作于2024年上半年的一套趣味原创电子音乐辑，也是我的第四张个人作品集。 说它「趣味」，是因为创作起因源自好友赠予的一件小礼物——「Stylophone」——这是一个历史悠久、仅靠一只触控笔就能演奏的微型合成器。我划来划去，很快就爱上了它鼻音浓重、饱满纯真的嗓音。可能Stylophone通常会被当作儿童玩具，但在我看却是很有生命力的乐器。在巴掌大的琴键上写出适合它声音气质、同时又能用触控笔演奏的音乐，正是趣味探索之所在。 幻想有一只离群索居的机器人，独自乘船出海，在声波指引下寻寻觅觅漂流，最终抵达被荒废许久的「触笔岛」。这座岛屿便是处于半岩化半湿地化进程中的Stylophone。随着机器人的登陆，机械四肢与金属琴键触碰，「触笔岛」重焕生机……音乐辑内共含四首乐曲，分别对应岛上的四个时间段与机器人的四种情绪状态。 除音乐本身，还有我精心设计的Pixel手工建模以及与每首曲搭配的Visualizer视觉展示。在一切制作技术都更加便捷化或者说低门槛化的2025，我仍然向往和坚信着手工技艺的独一无二、动人与美好，所以尽管动画视频做得磕磕绊绊，我还是想作为观察者，用音乐与影像相结合的形式去还原我脑海里「触笔岛」上的一天一世界，岛的形状和植被细节、机器人的状态与样貌都无法被随机生成或再复制，它们是唯一的存在。 特别鸣谢（排名不分先后）：感谢友邻汪小我赠予我这台口袋合成器；感谢YuH.@ChiliChill 鱼总提供重要插件坑位赞助以及绝赞免费母带服务。 制作信息CREDITS: -01 Boat Song for My 2obot 献给机器人的船歌 -02 3ome Deep Thoughts 某些思绪 -03 Wonder4 Dayz 烂漫时光 Composing/Arranging/Instruments Playing: 行鳥小次郎 Mixing & Mastering: 行鳥小次郎 -04 Branch 5oad 岔路 Composing/Arranging/Instruments Playing/Mixing: 行鳥小次郎 Mastering: YuH.@ChiliChill Original Art Design: 行鳥小次郎 Graphic Design / Rendering / Video Editing: 行鳥小次郎 "The Stylus Island" - A Brand New Original Mini Album Now Available! This is a collection of a fun original electronic piece that I created in the first half of 2024. It is described as "fun" because the inspiration for the creation came from a gift given by a friend — the "Stylophone" — a historic mini synthesizer that can be played using just a stylus pen. As I explored its sounds, I quickly fell in love with its rich, innocent tone. While the Stylophone is often seen as a children's toy, I see it as a very vibrant instrument. Writing music that fits its sonic character and can be played with a stylus on its tiny metal keys has been an enjoyable exploration. I imagined a solitary robot sailing alone, drifting at sea, guided by sound waves, eventually reaching the long-abandoned "Stylus Island”. This island symbolizes the Stylophone, which is caught between a semi-rocky and semi-wetland state. With the robot's landing, its mechanical limbs touch the metal keys, and "Stylus Island" comes to life... This mini album contains four tracks, each corresponding to different time periods on the island and four of the robot's emotional state. Besides the music, I also designed all the physical pixel modeling and the visualizers for each track. I hope my clumsy post-production helps to show this work from other perspectives. Special thanks (in no particular order): Thanks to my cyber friend Lauren Wang for gifting me this pocket synthesizer; thanks to YuH.@ChiliChill for providing important plugin sponsorship and excellent free mastering services. 01 Boat Song for My 2obot 02 3ome Deep Thoughts 03 Wonder4 Dayz Composing/Arranging/Instruments Playing/Mixing&Mastering: WALKIN'BIRD 04 Branch 5oad Composing/Arranging/Instruments Playing/Mixing: WALKIN'BIRD Mastering: YuH.@ChiliChill Original Art Design: WALKIN'BIRD Graphic Design / Rendering / Video Editing: WALKIN'BIRD
