Since today is a Chinese New Year, I decide to make a piece about Chinese New Year. I chose a traditional Chinese song and remixing it using the open source program called WavePad. Some effects that I used are included Amplify, Normalize, High-Pass Filter, Echo, Reverb, Reverse etc.

The program can be downloaded from the following website.
http://www.nch.com.au/wavepad/index.html


It is a basic user friendly audio editing program. It lets the user to import basic audio formats. User can re-mix the imported file by clicking a few buttons. In addition, WavePad is having a function of recording. People can record their own sound files and remixing it.

The right of the original song is reserved to the song owner. -in Chinese 贺岁专辑《恭喜恭喜》 香香


The lyric in Chinese

恭喜恭喜
作曲:陳歌辛

每條大街小巷 每個人的嘴裡 見面第一句話 就是恭喜恭喜
恭喜恭喜恭喜你呀 恭喜恭喜恭喜你
冬天一到盡頭 真是好的消息 溫暖的春風 吹醒了大地
恭喜恭喜恭喜你呀 恭喜恭喜恭喜你
恭喜恭喜恭喜你呀 恭喜恭喜恭喜你
皓皓冰雪溶解 眼看梅花吐蕊 慢慢花也活絡 聽到一聲雞啼
恭喜恭喜恭喜你呀 恭喜恭喜恭喜你
經過多少困難 經歷多少磨練 多少心兒盼望 春天的消息
恭喜恭喜恭喜你呀 恭喜恭喜恭喜你
恭喜恭喜恭喜你呀 恭喜恭喜恭喜你
