盖伊·西格斯沃思

盖伊·西格斯沃思(Guy Sigsworth,)是英国作曲家,制作人和歌曲创作者。在其职业生涯中,Guy Sigsworth与很多知名艺人合作过,其中包括席尔(Seal)、比约克(Björk)、、麦当娜(Madonna)、布莱尼·斯皮尔斯(Britney Spears)、貝波·吉兒柏托(Bebel Gilberto)和艾拉妮丝·莫莉塞特( )。他也曾与很多著名乐器演奏者合作过,包括塔尔文·西恩(),琼·哈塞尔( )和莱斯特·波依()。他曾与伊莫珍·希普()共同参加了 乐队。
早期音乐经历
Sigsworth在 West Yorkshire的伊爾克利市长大,在那里他就对早期音乐产生了浓厚兴趣,尤其是14世纪作曲家 纪尧姆·德·马肖。他最早期的偶像是多器乐演奏家 和桀骜不驯的录音师、作曲家。 他最初在葡萄牙的 夏季学校学习大键琴,接着在荷兰的Utrecht Conservatorium学习了一年。他随欧洲联盟巴洛克管弦乐团 ()在欧洲巡回演出,弹奏大键琴。

Seal
回到英国后,他搬到伦敦居住,兴趣急速转向。他开始为发展迅速的酸浩室声音着迷,并立即买了一个罗兰取样器和雅達利 电脑。他见到了席尔,并与其为席尔的首张专辑合写了四首歌:《》,《The Beginning》,《Wild》和《Violet》,加上B面的《Sparkle》。这张专辑的制作人,特雷弗·霍恩是Sigsworth遇到的第一个流行音乐制作人。

Bomb the Bass / Hector Zazou
也参与了席尔歌曲《》的创作,而后Sigsworth很快成为了Simenon乐队“”的制作团队的一员,联合创作了英国排名第七的单曲“Winter In July”。他也与Simenon一同制作了 1992年的专辑《Sahara Blue》,与法国知名演员 傑哈·德巴狄厄共同演唱“I'll Strangle You”。Sigsworth随后与比约克一同参与了Zazou1994年的专辑《》。

Talvin Singh
在和日本鼓手兼制作人一同合作期间,Sigsworth结识了著名手鼓演奏家。随后他为Singh的现场音乐会演奏了合成器和大键琴,还参与了Singh首张专辑《》演奏和混音。

Björk
Sigsworth是通过Singh认识比约克的,也是因为Singh他成为了键盘手,随后成为了比约克乐队两张专辑的音乐导演。Sigsworth将他对早期音乐的敏感带到了比约克的现场演出和专辑录制中,加入了大键琴,翼琴,和伴唱键盘的元素。Sigsworth的大键琴出现在专辑《》中歌曲《Cover me》里。翼琴则出现在歌曲《All Is Full Of Love》中,键盘在专辑《Homogenic》的歌曲《Unravel》里出现。《Unravel》是Sigsworth和比约克第一首合作的歌曲。据报道,这是湯姆·約克最喜欢的歌曲。Sigsworth还在比约克出演琼尼·米歇尔的《The Boho Dance》时演奏了钟琴。之后,钟琴成为了《黑暗中的舞者》(其中他参与了弦乐编写) 和《》 (其中他参与创作了《》,《An Echo, A Stain》, 《Sun In My Mouth》和《Harm Of Will》)两张专辑的特点。

Imogen Heap
在听到一位朋友演奏了歌曲《Come Here Boy》的唱片样品碟后,Sigsworth于1996年结识了伊莫珍·希普,他马上爱上了她独特的嗓音。同时,她特别钟情于较广阔,有棱角的间歇特点的旋律,特别是大七和弦和小九和弦。这些在流行音乐中是不常见的,对此Sigsworth很是惊喜。他们一起写了两首歌曲,《Getting Scared》和《Airplane》。这两首都被收入Heap的首张专辑《》中。作为回报,Heap在Sigworth与Alexander Nilere合作的乐队中演唱和声。

G:MT
1999年,Sigsworth凭电影 大获成功。其中包括了Imogen Heap,Talvin Singh和自由爵士名手 的加盟。

Madonna
Sigworth参与制作了 乐队1998年的专辑《Empathy》,这吸引了麦当娜的注意,并导致他与麦当娜为她2000年专辑《音樂聖堂》合写了歌曲《女孩的感觉》。Sigsworth还与 珍一同为麦当娜2003年的专辑《 梦醒美国》创作了歌曲《不再失去》。

Frou Frou
在印度 孟买的一天晚上,在此为英国亚裔歌手制作歌曲的Sigsworth在他的雅马哈QY20掌上音序器上创作了一首旋律。他一回到伦敦便将此歌交给Imogen Heap,请她为此歌取名。随后这首歌被命名为“Flicks”,成为了Frou Frou乐队第一张专辑《》中的一首歌。起初,两人并没有组建乐队的计划,这完全是出于Sigsworth想听到各种不同音乐元素得到展现的想法。Heap说:“大概每个月Guy都会给我打电话,说我有了一首新歌,你愿意来唱吗?这样不知不觉我们就有了一张专辑。”
作为新出现的一系列歌曲的链接概念,Sigsworth对歌词有两点建议:

歌词应该像一组对话,而不是歌手一个人的无聊独白。启发这个想法的是1932年 Jean Cocteau的 ,(整个戏剧的台词由一位女士和其情人的电话对话中的一端通话内容组成。她情人的声音从未出现,但却能从她的言语中推测出其内容。)

“爱”这个字应该尽可能多的出现。

Sigsworth为歌曲《Breathe In 》《Only Got One 》《The Dumbing Down Of Love》创作了歌词,并参与了专辑《Details》中《 Let Go》《It's Good To Be In Love 》《Psychobabble》歌词的创作。除了《 Maddening Shroud》是由Alexander Nilere 作词外,Heap写了余下的歌词。
在完成了11首歌之后,Heap和Sigsworth准备为他们的共同努力成果寻找名字。Sigsworth是个法语迷,想出了Frou Frou这个名字,Heap也很喜欢。这个名字来自1870年阿蒂尔·兰波的诗歌《Ma Bohème》,是一个法语拟声词,原意为跳舞女士的衣裙发出的“嗖嗖的声音”。专辑名“Details”,意指歌曲是在制作室里通过叠加细小声音片段而制作而成的。
专辑于2002年由环球唱片发行。专辑大受欢迎,但销量并不大。《Breathe In》是首先在国际上发行的单曲,并在意大利音乐广播中排行第二,但接下来的单曲《Must Be Dreaming》和《It's Good To Be In Love》并没有以商业模式在英国发行。他们还为《The Dumbing Down of Love》制作了一首mv,由 导演(他后来导演了希普的个人mv,《
》)执导。二人在美国的巡演吸引了不少歌迷,但Frou Frou于2003年解散了。
Heap和Sigsworth临时改革了Frou Frou,录制了《》的非原唱歌带(原版为邦妮·泰勒演唱的怪物史莱克2中的插曲)。该电影的音乐导演找到了他们,他也是Frou Frou的歌迷。结果该插曲在电影末尾播放。Frou Frou在2004年再次崛起,原因是扎克·布拉夫选用了《Let Go》一曲作为其电影《》的插曲。其他不少歌曲也被电视剧CSI,E星恋()等收为插曲。
虽然在发行一张专辑后就解散(Heap和Sigsworth仍然是好朋友,时常见面聊天,但各自专注于自己的音乐领域),Frou Frou的音乐影响力一直很广,Heap与Sigsworth在他们的合作结束后,反而得到了更多关注。

Frou Frou 之后
在Frou Frou之后,Sigsworth就开始重新为其他艺人制作歌曲。

布蘭妮·斯皮爾斯
Sigsworth为布蘭妮写了若干首歌。第一首是《Everytime》,出现在她在美国发行的第一张专辑《In the Zone》中,是该专辑中的第三首,曾在英国和澳大利亚达到音乐排行榜首位,也在美国《公告牌100》中排行第15。在2005年,Sigsworth 和Spears共同创作了歌曲《Someday (I Will Understand)》。一首Imogen Heap与Sigsworth共同为《In the Zone》创作的歌曲《混乱天堂》也在英国发行,且在细碟日版加长版cd《混乱天堂》(随她真人秀DVD《 Chaotic》同时发行,此曲也是日语单曲《某天我将明白》)中出现。2008年,Sigsworth参与了专辑《Circus》中创作了《Out from Under》、《My Baby》的创作。
