地道美語(yǔ)聽(tīng)力播客:真正的音樂(lè)大師
Victoria: I see that you have a really extensive music collection.
我看到你收藏了很多種音樂(lè)。
J.D.: Yeah, I like a lot of different genres of music.
是啊，我喜歡很多不同的音樂(lè)。
Victoria: Do you have the new J.McQ album? He’s my favorite artist. I just got it and I like all ofthe tracks on it.
你有新的J. MCQ專輯嗎?他是我最喜愛(ài)的大師。我剛剛買到專輯，我喜歡里面的所有曲目。
J.D.: No, I haven’t heard it yet. Do you have it on your MP3 player?
我沒(méi)有聽(tīng)說(shuō)過(guò)它。你有MP3播放器有專輯歌曲嗎?
Victoria: Yeah, here, I’ve cued up the first track.
有，在這兒，我插入的第一首曲目。
J.D.: Hmm…I like the beat of the first song, but I’m not blown away by the rest of it. It’s also areally bad mix. The bass is up too high; you can hardly hear the treble. Is the whole album likethat?
嗯... ...我喜歡的第一首歌曲的節(jié)拍，但其余的歌曲我不怎么喜歡。這也是一個(gè)非常糟糕的混合。低音漲得太高，你很難聽(tīng)到高音。整張專輯都這樣嗎?
Victoria: Yeah, I guess so. I didn’t notice. Maybe the volume wasn’t up high enough.
是的，我猜是這樣。我沒(méi)有注意到。也許音量不夠高。
J.D.: No, it was up high enough. Maybe he’s just not that good a vocalist and the soundengineers are trying to cover it up in the mixing.
不，音量已經(jīng)最高了。也許他不是沒(méi)有那么好的歌手，而音響師試圖通過(guò)混音來(lái)掩蓋他的聲音。
Victoria: Are you kidding? He’s an amazing singer. Come on, listen to another track. I’m sureyou’ll change your mind.
你在開玩笑嗎?他是一個(gè)驚人的的歌手。來(lái)吧，聽(tīng)另一首曲目。我相信你會(huì)改變主意。
J.D.: No, thanks. I’d rather listen to a bunch of fighting cats than listen to anymore of J.McQ!
不，謝謝。我寧愿聽(tīng)一群貓大家也不愿意聽(tīng)J.McQ的歌了!
