With the emergence of a new task, Xu Lin became busy again.
"What's the first step in making film scores?"
Of course, it's not about jumping right into it, but first familiarizing oneself with the field of scoring, like appreciating classic scores by renowned domestic and international composers.
In this realm of scoring, there are many masters.
Famous names whose works folks at home are familiar with or have heard of include people like Chen Xunqi, Mak Chun-hung, James Wong, and others.
Especially during the peak of Hong Kong cinema, these masters created many classic, timeless scores.
Like Chen Xunqi's "Let Me Roam My Lonely Shadow" and "True Love".
Xu Jingqing's "Rapid Melodies of the Cloud Palace," which is the famous BGM from "Journey to the West," even those who've never seen the 1986 TV version of "Journey to the West" know this as Sun Wukong's exclusive score because it's so widely known.
Joseph Koo's "Companion on a Long Road".
