Drum7: The person who contributed to the "Cut the Sorrow in Half" fever, is not famous for "relying on" Tang Duy Tan

Drum7 is the music producer behind the success of many hit songs in V-pop. Drum7's compositions have not only received positive responses from domestic but also international audiences.

Drum7's real name is Nguyen Huy Hoang Hiep, born in Ha Tinh, he is a music producer, he is a former student of the University of Law (Hue University) but is passionate and successful with music. Drum7 is the music producer behind the success of many famous Vpop songs, having collaborated with many singers such as Van Mai Huong, Phan Manh Quynh, Bao Anh, B Bay, The Men group, Do Hoang Duong, Quang Hung Master D and Tang Duy Tan.

Drum7 comes from the role of Music Producer/DJ with a preference for EDM music, and therefore, his works often have Western colors and are influenced by Country Pop and R&B. Currently he is under the management of Big Arts Entertainment.

He made an important contribution in creating hit songs such as "Le Luu Ly" by Vu Phung Tien and "Cut the Sorrow in Half" by Tang Duy Tan. Despite its impressive contributions, Drum7 is not a new name in the Vietnamese music industry.

Previously, he also collaborated with many famous artists such as Quang Hung MasterD and Phan Manh Quynh to create hits such as "Easy Come, Easy Go" and "Other People". However, at the time, Drum7 often went unnoticed and did not receive the recognition it deserved, but that was the reality for talented producers, who often operated in the shadows of the music scene.

Nowadays, with changes in the music market, the role of producers is more important than ever. Drum7 has officially come to light and has proven his talent. In a short time, he contributed to creating 2/3 hits that are in the Top 3 music trends on YouTube Vietnam. Although singers are often the ones who get the most attention when a piece of music is released, the efforts and contributions of producers also need to be recognized and supported more.

Vietnamese audiences today often focus on the melody before considering the lyrics, rhythm and many other factors. Therefore, the role of a good producer is important, because they play an important role in creating interesting and soulful music to conquer the public's hearts.

Most recently, he also contributed to two songs Dai Minh Tinh and Garden of Eden in the album Minh Tinh - The actress by female singer Van Mai Huong, officially becoming a producer that received a lot of attention from Vietnamese music listeners. .

Sharing about his starting point, Dum7 said that when he finished college, he went to Hanoi to study photography from his brother. However, due to being busy with work, his brother did not have time to teach Drum the profession. During that time, the song We don't talk anymore by Charlie Puth emerged, along with Faded by Alan Walker. Because they had nothing to do, the male producer wanted to find out how they could make such good music.

From there, Drum joined music groups on Facebook and learned how people make music from posts there, as well as searching for materials on YouTube and Google. After finding making music interesting, he learned about DJs. And especially idolizes Dutch DJ/ producer Armin Van Buuren. It is known that this artist studied Law and also worked as a music producer and did not become truly successful until he was 25 years old. From then on, Drum decided to become a music producer.

Currently, Drum7 can be said to be a 'cool' producer when bringing many 'hits' to Vietnamese artists. However, Drum7 said that this not only makes him happy but also becomes invisible pressure that makes him worry a lot.

"With such success, many artists come to me to contribute to their upcoming products. I'm afraid that if I don't do well, it will affect them, because every product is made with passion. of not only the artist, but also the accompanying crew. Sometimes I think, maybe it's due to stress, so I think too much. Or maybe it's because I'm 'on top' too quickly, so I start to fear the concept." flop". But now, I always give 200% effort when I accept to make a product", Drum7 said.

Accordingly, every time he creates a trend for young people, Drum is reluctantly labeled "rising thanks to Tang Duy Tan". Even though he didn't think much, this somehow made Drum feel quite sad.

"If I say Drum7's career is closely related to Tang Duy Tan, it's not really true. Because before working with Tan, I worked with Phan Manh Quynh, singer Bao Anh, B Ray, The Men, Do Hoang Duong ... and there are also certain achievements such as the 'hit' Easy Come, Easy Go by Quang Hung Master D.

Drum7 has been with Tan since the first days, behind Tan's products from First Love, Innocence, Da Vu, No Fading... As a music producer, the task is to make the product the most well-received. Tan is a close friend of Drum7, so to be honest, seeing Tan succeed makes me very happy and not heartbroken. If it's not Tan but someone else, I'll probably feel sad."

Even though he is a famous music producer today, Drum7 still maintains his humility and the spirit of wanting to learn to move forward. "Up to now, I still don't know if I'm considered famous or not. And I'm also very unfamiliar with those statements from my siblings and friends. I'm probably still a celebrity. Just a newbie. I'm quite stressed because I'm worried about upcoming products and not knowing whether they will be accepted or not.

I have a habit of always updating my knowledge about music, as well as popular music around the world. So now I believe, if the audience has a little expertise. When listening to my music, you will discover extremely simple, yet new things that I have put into it. And that is also what I have been doing and always do when I start producing a song."
