Taylor Swift’s longtime recording engineer Laura Sisk is over the moon about her experience working alongside the pop star.
泰勒·斯威夫特的长期录音工程师劳拉·西斯克对她与这位流行歌星一起工作的经历感到非常高兴。
“Taylor Swift, I want to thank you so much for the endless inspiration,” Sisk shared while on stage at We Are Moving The Needle’s Resonator Awards on Tuesday, January 30, per The Hollywood Reporter. “She’s truly one of a kind in her work ethic and getting to do so many different kinds of projects with her has made me grow so much as an engineer.”
据《好莱坞报道》报道，1月30日星期二，西斯克在We Are Moving the Needle的共鸣奖颁奖典礼的舞台上说:“泰勒·斯威夫特，我非常感谢你给了我无尽的灵感。”“她的职业道德真的是独一无二的，和她一起做这么多不同类型的项目让我作为一名工程师成长了很多。”
The three-time Grammy winner, who was there to accept the Exceptional Ears Award, noted that it’s been “so special” to watch music she’s helped create play in sold out stadiums as Swift continues her career-spanning Eras Tour across the globe.
这位三届格莱美奖得主在现场接受杰出耳朵奖，她指出，在斯威夫特继续她的职业生涯横跨全球的时代之旅的时候，在座无人席的体育场馆里观看她帮助创作的音乐是“非常特别的”。
Sisk began working alongside Swift, 34, and producer Jack Antonoff in 2014 for the release of her first pop album, 1989. The trio have since collaborated on 2017’s Reputation, 2019’s Lover, 2020’s Folklore and Evermore and 2022’s Midnights. Sisk has also been part of Swift’s rerelease project, which she pointed to as an example of the singer’s talent and prowess.
2014年，Sisk开始与34岁的斯威夫特和制作人Jack Antonoff合作，发行她的第一张流行专辑《1989》。此后，三人合作了2017年的《Reputation》、2019年的《Lover》、2020年的《Folklore》和《Evermore》以及2022年的《midnight》。Sisk也是斯威夫特发行计划的一部分，她指出这是歌手才华和实力的一个例子。
“I want to mention the rerecords specifically as an incredible engineering challenge, and an intellectual and technical and creative pursuit,” Sisk explained of the process. “It’s been so exciting and it has been exercising a completely different part of my brain.”
“我想特别提到的是，这些记录是一项令人难以置信的工程挑战，是一项智力、技术和创造性的追求，”西克解释说。“这太令人兴奋了，它一直在锻炼我大脑中完全不同的部分。”
Swift announced in 2019 that she would rerecord her first six albums after music manager Scooter Braun acquired her former record label, Big Machine Records, and gained the rights to her masters. (Braun and Swift have had a longstanding rivalry that dates back to 2016.)
在音乐经纪人斯库特·布劳恩收购了斯威夫特的前唱片公司Big Machine Records，并获得了她的母带版权后，斯威夫特于2019年宣布，她将重新录制她的前六张专辑。(布劳恩和斯威夫特之间的长期竞争可以追溯到2016年。)
Braun later sold the rights to Swift’s music to private equity company Shamrock Holdings for over $300 million in 2020, which, Swift claimed had occurred without her knowledge. In combatting the sale, Swift released her first rerecording, Fearless (Taylor’s Version) in April 2021, with Red (Taylor’s Version) following six months later. Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) and 1989 (Taylor’s Version) hit shelves in July 2023 and October 2023, respectively, with Swift inviting her previous collaborators to help recreate the tracks. (Reputation and 2006’s title album have yet to be rereleased.)
布劳恩后来在2020年以超过3亿美元的价格将斯威夫特的音乐版权卖给了私募股权公司三叶草控股，斯威夫特声称这是在她不知情的情况下发生的。为了对抗销售，斯威夫特于2021年4月发行了她的第一张唱片《Fearless》(泰勒版)，六个月后又发行了《Red》(泰勒版)。《Speak Now》(泰勒版)和《1989》(泰勒版)分别于2023年7月和2023年10月上架，斯威夫特邀请了她以前的合作者帮助重现这两首歌。(《Reputation》和2006年的同名专辑尚未发行。)
All of Swift’s rerecorded albums have found major success. Earlier this month, the “Anti-Hero” singer took the No. 1 spot on the 2024 Billboard Power 100 list, which serves as a definitive ranking of the most powerful players in the music industry.
斯威夫特的所有专辑都获得了巨大的成功。本月早些时候，这位演唱《反英雄》的歌手在2024年公告牌百强榜上排名第一，这是音乐界最具影响力的人物的最终排名。
Upon learning about her win, Swift offered advice to other music industry change makers, pointing to her rerecording as one of her most successful endeavors.
得知自己获奖的消息后，斯威夫特向其他音乐界的变革者提出了建议，并指出她的录音是她最成功的努力之一。
“The piece of advice I would give to the other executives on this list is that the best ideas are usually ones without industry precedent,” Swift told Billboard on Wednesday, January 31. “The biggest crossroads moments of my career came down to sticking to my instincts when my ideas were looked at with skepticism.”
斯威夫特在1月31日周三接受《公告牌》采访时说:“我想给榜单上其他高管的建议是，最好的想法通常是没有行业先例的。”“我职业生涯中最大的十字路口时刻是，当我的想法遭到怀疑时，我坚持自己的直觉。”
“When someone says to me, ‘But that has never been done successfully before,’ it fires me up,” she continued. “Every once in a while, you have to really trust your gut and take a flying leap. My rerecordings are my favorite example of this, and I’m extremely grateful to my team and fans for taking that leap with me because it absolutely changed my life.”
“当有人对我说，‘但以前从来没有成功过’时，我就会兴奋起来，”她继续说道。“每隔一段时间，你必须相信自己的直觉，大胆尝试。我的录音就是我最喜欢的例子，我非常感谢我的团队和粉丝们和我一起迈出了这一步，因为这绝对改变了我的生活。”
In addition to her other accolades, Swift is currently nominated for six Grammys including Record of the Year, Song of the Year, Pop Solo Performance, Best Duo/Group Performance and Best Pop Vocal Album. Midnights is also up for Album of the Year, her sixth nod in the category overall. If she secures the win at the Sunday, February 4, ceremony, she will become the first person ever to achieve the accolade four times.
除了其他荣誉，斯威夫特目前还获得了六项格莱美奖提名，包括年度最佳唱片、年度最佳歌曲、流行独唱、最佳双人/组合表演和最佳流行演唱专辑。《午夜》还获得了年度最佳专辑奖，这是她在该奖项中的第六次提名。如果她在2月4日周日的颁奖典礼上获胜，她将成为史上第一个四次获得该奖项的人。
