1
One of my classmates, he was able to get me a meeting with the big boss— Lyor Cohen.
2
I took a Megabus from D.C. to New York.
3
We sit down and I played him a verse chorus of one song.
4
And then I started to play the beginning of a second song, and he cut me off, and he was like, “why am I here?” And I was like, “to hear my music?” He was like, “no, I mean, this is a waste of my time. You’re not ready yet.” And he got up and he left the meeting.
5
I got literally two minutes with him and it was over.
6
Hey, you! Yes, you. Is there music inside of you?
7
We’ve recruited working musicians from throughout the industry to help you hear it, hold it, and share it with this wild and wonderful world.
8
Hi, my name is Daniel Breland.
9
I professionally go by Breland.
10
I am a singer, songwriter, and producer originally from New Jersey.
11
I live in Nashville and the genres that I usually play in are country music, R&B, hip hop, gospel.
12
That day with Lyor Cohen, I got back on the Megabus and went back to D.C., and I was devastated for a good week because I was like, I’m 19, I’ve been making music for five years, I got a meeting with the guy that’s supposed to be The Guy, and he said it wasn’t it, you know?
13
And so I’m just trying to figure out what my next steps should be.
14
I decided to double down and I ended up buying some equipment.
15
And I was like, look, I’m going to write and record a song every day until I get better.
16
And so from from that day, in October of 2014, for the next year, I wrote and recorded a good 365 songs.
17
And the following year, the songs had definitely gotten marginally better.
18
And so I said, okay, well, this next year, now my junior year, I said I’m going to write and record two songs a day.
19
Now, at this point, I’m pretty much barely going to class.
20
Now I've got two songs a day.
21
So now halfway into that second year, I've got 700 plus songs and nobody to really listen to any of them.
22
And so I started reaching out, kind of cold-calling people in the industry— songwriters, producers, managers, A&Rs, artists, friends.
23
I mean, they received an email, a DM, a tweet.
24
I might have written a couple handwritten letters if there was an address to a record label.
25
And literally just trying to reach out to as many people I could to see if I could get any feedback.
26
Really, that was the year that I made the biggest jump, because I started getting feedback where I was like, okay, cool— there are people in the industry that have given me some insight on how songs are actually written and where I’m falling short.
27
Writer’s block is real.
28
You know, inspiration can strike at any moment, but you can also lose inspiration on something in any moment.
29
And I think that’s okay.
30
Because I’ve written so many songs, and because I was so dedicated for all of those years that I was writing songs every day, and no one was hearing any of them, I understand that there are songs that people are never going to hear.
31
And so I’m not afraid to step away from a song entirely and say, hey, if it’s not happening for this song on this day, that’s okay.
32
I think the right way to produce a song is to listen to the song and give the song what it needs, you know?
33
And that requires a level of— a level of humility.
34
You may think, okay, well, this is what it needs to do because I’ve done this before and I know that that works.
35
But sometimes it's being able to say, hey, maybe it’s something that I’ve never thought of before, and maybe it’s something that’s going to come to me in its own time.
36
And you can't rush the creative process.
37
A lot of times you literally have to step back from it and say, how can I be in service to the song?
38
For me, stepping back to gain perspective on a song, it can come in a few different ways.
39
Sometimes it’s me listening to a song a bunch, and sometimes it’s me not listening to the song at all; literally letting it sit for a few days or a week, working on some other music and then coming back to it.
40
You know, sometimes it's playing the song around other people.
41
It's not an exact science.
42
Part of it is just being receptive to the fact that it might look totally different on one song than it does on another song.
43
You might get to that finished product the day that you write it, and then there's other songs that might take you months or even years.
44
And I don’t think either of those is wrong.
45
It just literally depends on how it comes to you and where your inspiration arrives from.
46
For me, it’s just recognizing that it’s not always going to go exactly the way I want.
47
And that even those “dud songs,” are the ones that don’t get finished, you know, they still help inform the way that I write songs in the future.
48
And I think it’s those great songs that you end up getting, oftentimes you would not get those songs if it weren't for the songs that you feel like you missed or that you didn’t get it.
49
And so just trying to continue to encourage yourself and not get too down on yourself because something isn’t going at the speed that you want or coming together in quite the way that you want.
50
You will eventually get to the songs that you really want if you just continue to work on it.

왜 이 비디오로 말하기 연습을 해야 할까요?

이 비디오에서는 음악을 만드는 과정에서의 도전과 극복의 이야기를 들려줍니다. 연습의 중요성과 매일 새로운 시도를 하는 것이 어떻게 창의성을 향상시킬 수 있는지를 잘 보여줍니다. 이와 같은 내용을 이야기하는 영상을 통해 영어 회화 연습을 진행할 수 있으며, 자신감을 가지고 영어로 표현하는 방법을 배울 수 있습니다. 이런 생생한 경험담을 통해 실제 상황에서의 말하기 연습은 물론, shadow speak 기법으로 말하기 능력을 기를 수 있습니다. 그리고 다양한 장르의 음악에 대해 이야기하는 내용은 다양한 어휘와 표현을 학습하는 데에도 도움이 됩니다.

문맥 속의 문법 및 표현

비디오에서 사용된 주요 구조는 다음과 같습니다:

  • “I decided to double down” - 결정을 내리고 더욱 집중하기로 마음먹다. 이 표현은 목표를 향해 더 열심히 노력하겠다는 의지를 나타냅니다.
  • “I started reaching out” - 다양한 사람들과 연락을 시작하다. 네트워킹의 중요성을 강조하는 좋은 예입니다.
  • “I was devastated” - 매우 실망했다는 감정을 표현하는데 사용됩니다. 감정 표현은 소통의 핵심입니다.
  • “It’s okay to step away” - 잠시 거리를 두는 것이 괜찮다는 점을 강조합니다. 이는 창의성의 흐름을 저해하지 않기 위한 방법 중 하나입니다.

이와 같은 표현들을 활용하여 IELTS 스피킹에서 요구되는 자신의 생각을 정리하고 명확하게 전달하는 연습을 할 수 있습니다.

일반적인 발음 함정

비디오 속 발음에서 주의해야 할 몇 가지 단어와 억양은 다음과 같습니다:

  • “waste” - 특히 ‘t’의 발음을 분명히 하기 위해 연습할 필요가 있습니다.
  • “music” - ‘mu’ 부분이 모음으로 인해 다른 단어들과 혼동되지 않도록 주의해야 합니다.
  • “humility”와 “inspiration” - 이 두 단어는 발음의 강세가 달라, 읽을 때 주의 깊은 연습이 필요합니다.

이러한 단어들을 발음할 때 영어 발음 교정을 위해 shadow speech 기법을 사용해 보세요. 반복적으로 말하며 억양과 리듬을 익히는 것이 중요합니다.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
