TAEYANG 《QUINTESSENCE》

《QUINTESSENCE》是一張源於TAEYANG對"本質"長久思考的專輯。
它以音樂呈現出一段尋找那些不可見卻最為重要價值的旅程。
TAEYANG並未急於定義所謂的答案，而是將重心放在探索過程中所面對的自我提問、情感，以及自身的態度之上。
這些源自個人敍事的提問，期待通過音樂延展為一種共鳴，觸及每位聽者內心深處的本質。


“Quintessence”

The word that constantly stays on my mind.
And the word that is most needed for this generation.

I completely put myself into this process — my love, my joy, my passion — but sometimes I had to face my own madness along the way.

I can’t say that I found the perfect meaning of “Quintessence”, but my journey in searching for it became the path that shaped this album.

One thing that is clear to me is that it already exists inside of me, and also inside of you.
Through this process, I may discover the answer on the next page.

It may just seem like music, but it could be something beyond that.
I hope that one day you will find it within yourself too.

The thing that is most important but unseen.


1. BAD

柔和旋律與厚重節拍形成鮮明對比，疊加鋭利傾瀉的嗓音，令人印象深刻。
TAEYANG以獨特音色描繪不停向前的時間軌跡，並通過張弛有度的編排，拉開專輯強烈的序幕。

2. LIVE FAST DIE SLOW  *Title
Lyrics by TAEYANG, lil aaron, Kaine, Vince, TEDDY
Composed by TEDDY, KUSH, VVN, Dominsuk, lil aaron, Kaine
Arranged by Dominsuk

燃燒的疾馳，永恆的殘影。
《LIVE FAST DIE SLOW》呈現出在瞬息萬變的現實中堅守自我核心、奮力前行的宣言。通過將痛苦與毀滅轉化為熾熱明亮的意象，這一充滿悖論的表達傳遞出在無盡道路上依然不斷前行的堅定意志。

3. WOULD YOU (feat. TARZZAN, WOOCHAN) 
Lyrics by TAEYANG, TARZZAN, WOOCHAN, TEDDY, Lukasz Gottwald, Theron Thomas, Rocco Valdes, Ryan Ogren, Ashley Gorley, Vince
Composed by Lukasz Gottwald, Theron Thomas, Rocco Valdes, Ryan Ogren, Ashley Gorley, Vince, WOOCHAN
Arranged by Dr. Luke

以平靜語調講述陪伴在身邊之人的珍貴，沿着深層情感線條傳遞温暖的慰藉。
融入靜謐氛圍的感性貝斯增強了層次感，同時“ALLDAY PROJECT”的“TARZZAN”與“WOOCHAN”參與featuring，使情感表達更加真摯。

柔和的主旋律與極簡編排，彷彿漫步於巴黎夜晚街頭般浪漫。

復古合成器音色與潮流節拍巧妙交織的實驗性作品。

疊加“The Kid LAROI”富有感知力的節奏處理，使整首歌的動態能量達到高點。

6. LOVE LIKE THIS 
Lyrics by TAEYANG, Paul Blanco
Composed by Paul Blanco
Arranged by Paul Blanco

一首捨棄華麗修飾、選擇深層真誠的R&B作品。
律動感十足的節拍之上，靈魂感強烈的嗓音展現存在感。
質樸歌詞與深遠共鳴交織，在聽者心中留下悠長餘韻。

7. YES
Lyrics by TAEYANG, Paul Blanco, Vince
Composed by Paul Blanco
Arranged by Paul Blanco, BRLLNT

立體聲場與剋制的人聲形成對比，反而帶來更強烈的印象，是TAEYANG全新嘗試的代表作。
反覆出現的“Yes”極具中毒性，為歌曲提供持續推動力。
從橋段過渡至尾聲部分，運用“BIGBANG”與“2NE1”的《Lollipop》採樣，成為瞬間反轉能量的關鍵觸發點。

8. NOW
Lyrics by TAEYANG, Antonio Stith, CAMO, Paul Blanco, Vince, Jonathan Yip, Jeremy Reeves, Ray Romulus, Jeff Baranowski, Luke Milano, August Rigo, Kameron Glasper, Chaz Jackson
Composed by Antonio Stith, Jonathan Yip, Jeremy Reeves, Ray Romulus, Jeff Baranowski, Luke Milano, August Rigo, Kameron Glasper
Arranged by the Stereotypes, 9am, IDO, BRLLNT, Vince

以恢弘聲場描繪當下瞬間的強烈吸引力。
將無法推遲到明天的熾熱渴望，直接注入充滿力量的編排之中。
隨着節拍層層推進，想要此刻彼此沉淪的本能能量愈發鮮明。

9. G.O.A.T 
Lyrics by TAEYANG, TABLO, Paul Blanco, Sophie Simmons, Dewain Whitmore Jr, Patrick ‘j.Que’ Smith
Composed by Sophie Simmons, Dewain Whitmore Jr, Patrick ‘j.Que’ Smith, Jonas Jurström
Arranged by Jonas Jurström, Patrick ‘j.Que’ Smith

一首傳達TAEYANG在“如果今天是最後一天”這一設想下，對摯愛之人所説之言的作品。
並非沉溺於終結的悲傷，而是強調那些最為閃耀瞬間的悖論式情感尤為突出。
獨特質感的聲音設計與豐富和聲相互融合，清晰呈現出TAEYANG特有的情感線條。

10. 4U
Lyrics by TAEYANG, Wildberry, Dewain Whitmore Jr, Patrick 'j.Que' Smith, Tony Ferarri
Composed by Dewain Whitmore Jr, Patrick 'j.Que' Smith, Tony Ferarri, Taylor Dexter, Wesley Singerman, Jacob Ray
Arranged by Taylor Dexter, Wesley Singerman, Patrick 'j.Que' Smith, Jacob Ray

加入混響的人聲與抒情旋律，與鋭利的失真效果交織，營造出彷彿進入全新空間的氛圍。
在準備《QUINTESSENCE》的過程中所經歷的多重情緒流動中，TAEYANG將對未來的期許以及永不終結的“永恆”訊息凝聚於這首收官之作中。

QUINTESSENCE

TAEYANG's second EP ALBUM [Down to Earth], which captures his sincere personal story, has been released.

'VIBE (feat. Jimin of BTS)' was released in January of this year and reestablished TAEYANG's unparalleled identity.

TAEYANG partook in the entire process of creating the EP ALBUM [Down to Earth], which includes various musical genres such as ballads, hip-hop, and soul which capture his personal stories to the fullest.

[Down to Earth] emcompasses diverse colors of the sunset as well as the nightfall, which allows listeners to sense TAEYANG's growth and maturity.

[Artist's Note]

This album comes from various emotions and inspirations that I felt underneath my skin as I gazed at the sunset.

The sunset, which decorates a day’s end, welcomes the dark night and not a new morning.

Just like the sunset, my world is colored with beautiful memories of the past,
but what came back to me was the ceaseless night that followed.
Thus, I began to realize that the image of myself over the past 6 years was not much different than the sunset.

In a way, I was deeply touched and felt relief by the silent sunset and how it greets the night,
fulfilling its role in the most beautiful way possible.

The repetitive and burdensome times that I could not overcome alone
naturally guided me 'back to the drawing board.'
Thus, this album allowed me to capture my heart that was ready to jump back up into a fresh new start.

I, now, have a glimpse of an understanding
that the prior experiences and stages of my life were indeed necessary
as I prepare to open this new chapter of my life.

Thankfully, I became more humble for this new beginning
and I would gladly lower myself even more to greet this moment.
This album is also an outcome for my cherished relationships with those
who stood by my side and gave me that extra push.

To the producers and staff members at THEBLACKLABEL, who offered me a new home and a new nest, and to my fans, who waited all this time without any guarantees, I want to express my infinite gratitude.

In hopes that this album and music become a little seedling
and one day turn into a healthy tree
In hopes that one day, it will bear beautiful flowers and fruits…

彰顯強大存在感的TAEYANG即將推出準備已久的第三張正規專輯“WHITE NIGHT”。

 TAEYANG表示，希望通過新專輯“WHITE NIGHT”，呈現出更加堅固的音樂世界觀和藝術性，以及自己的音樂風格。 TAEYANG不僅作為BIGBANG的成員，還作為SOLO歌手，不斷謀求成長，為打造高品質“WELL MADE ALBUM”做出了不懈努力。

這次TAEYANG將把這十年來作為藝人兼音樂人的音樂成就濃縮於SOLO第三輯， 完美呈現出百分百的TAEYANG。

01. 白夜

前奏以鋼琴演奏開始，通過Sidechain效果演奏出白夜般的氛圍。再加上TAEYANG柔和歌聲融為一體，是最能呈現出本次新專輯的風格的Future R&B歌曲。歌曲越是臨近重句部分，架子鼓色彩越來越濃。臨近尾聲，歌曲又一次顛覆聽眾的預想，上演反轉節奏，讓人難忘。

02. WAKE ME UP

該曲以直觀的彈奏和豐富的貝斯元素，充滿優雅感。該曲將異性比喻為“夢境”，並將此情感通過充滿空間感的主唱和夢幻般的編曲，融合得恰如其分，讓人印象深刻。歌曲選擇動態控制和架子鼓元素，與TAEYANG真誠的歌唱形成巧妙的結合。

03. DARLING

導入部通過個性十足的彈奏方式和哼唱的方式開始，是一首非常獨特的R&B歌曲。該曲亮點是以TAEYANG獨特的感性詮釋出世界最普遍的感情“愛情”，其最典型的中速編曲令人難忘。歌曲的感情達到高潮時的演奏則以宏偉的架子鼓和個性十足的結構，讓DARLING變得更加獨特和標新立異。
 
04. RIDE

Future R&B歌曲，融合了當代最流行的時尚元素和獨特的節奏。將男性希望與心愛的人一起去遊玩的心情，用非常幹練的方式呈現出來，令人印象深刻。該曲充滿浪漫氛圍，其橋接部分的EP彈奏和Trap變奏，預計將會給聽眾帶來聽覺享受。

05. AMAZIN'

該曲以DISCO節奏為基調進行編曲，將TAEYANG都市感性展露無遺。厚重的打擊和復古風Snare元素和TAEYANG充滿男性魅力的歌聲融為一體。動感的曲折和承前啓後的故事感也令人印象深刻。歌曲將男性與自己心儀的女子在一起時的好心情，用非常自然的方式呈現出來，屬於最大的亮點。

06. EMPTY ROAD

開頭憂傷的節奏和電子音吉他的演奏成為主基調。在整張專輯中，該曲屬於最為平靜且讓人放鬆的歌曲。該曲呈現出愛人突然不在身邊，或者所有人都會感受到的突如其來的空虛感，用非常真誠坦率的方式表達出來。該曲非常適合那些為尋找目的地而忙碌，但卻迷失方向的人們聽。.

07. NAKED

裝飾高音部分的BOX節奏和快節奏鋼琴Chordshot形成該曲的主旋律。屬於能夠充分凸顯出TAEYANG性感歌聲的Future R&B歌曲。雄偉和纖細同時孔村，表達出對剛認識的異性感到的魅力和本能。橋接部分的節奏和充滿活力的編曲方式與其歌詞巧妙融合。
 
08. TONIGHT feat. ZICO

屬於個性十足的 R&B歌曲。其主旋律吉他節奏和新穎的和聲方式非常獨特，很難在現今歌壇上找得到。架子鼓元素和黃金搭檔銅管獨奏的結合尤其凸顯。將異性相吸的感覺，用非常浪漫且夢幻的方式呈現出來。該曲由Artist ZICO擔任Featruting，為了強調ZICO的Featruting，歌曲將該部分動態節奏減下來，讓人印象深刻。該曲屬於前所未有的新風格R&B歌曲，預計會長時間被人相傳。
