獨立樂團拓展台語歌風潮

Abstract

台語流行歌曲從1920年代末開始發展，至今已超過九十年。1970年代間，台語流行歌曲曾因政府頒布《廣播電視法》，因而失去發展的舞台。解嚴之後出現的新台語歌時期，吸引許多人先後投入台語歌曲創作。

近年來，獨立音樂圈興起台語創作風潮，在社群媒體和音樂演出現場，都受到年輕世代的歡迎。這些新一代台語音樂創作者除了在音樂上展現鮮明的自我風格，也結合科技、視覺和在地元素，為聽眾帶來新鮮感。

本深度報導論文採訪21名獨立音樂創作人、音樂製作人與音樂祭主辦人，述說獨立樂團如何透過創作延續台語的使用。本深度報導論文首先藉由不同案例，呈現獨立樂團創作台語歌的動機、風格主題的選擇、創作上的困境，以及樂團的運作方式。

本深度報導論文接著訪談音樂製作人，了解他們如何讓台語歌成為年輕世代的流行。同時也透過音樂祭的描繪，探討現場演出如何活絡在地文化的場景，並形塑樂迷對獨立音樂的認同。報導結論則是透過特定獨立樂團的故事，呈現他們對音樂生涯的迷惘，以及持續創作台語歌的契機。

Taiwanese pop music has developed for more than 90 years since the late 1920s. Taiwanese pop music lost the stage of development in the 1970s, due to the promulgation of the Radio and Television Act by the government at that time, and attracted many people to devote themselves to Taiwanese song creation in the period of the “New Taiwanese Song Movement” after the lifting of martial law.

In recent years, the independent music industry has risen to create Taiwanese pop music, which is welcomed by the younger generation in social media and music perfor-mances. In addition to showing a distinct self-style in music, these new generations of Taiwanese music songwriters also combine technology, visual and local elements to bring freshness to the audience.

Based on 21 independent music creators, music producers and music festival organ-izers, this in-depth report describes how independent bands continue the usage of Tai-wanese language through their music creativity. This in-depth report starts to present the motivation of independent bands in creating Taiwanese songs, their choice of music style themes, the dilemma of music creation, and the bands' operating business model.

The following chapters would feature music producers who find out ways to devel-op new fashion in Taiwanese pop music for the younger generation. The last conclusion would feature a young independent band, narrating their confusion about the career in music industry, and the turning point for them to continue creating Taiwanese pop music.
