Music Inspiration

The film needs to fit my target audience of young, adventure-keen people including mountaineers. To do this the music needs to not only work in conjunction with the film but relate to a contemporary audience. I will do this by using 'post-dubstep eletronica-influenced urban RnB'. The success of PDEIUR is largely down to the recent proliferation of technological hardware and software. Many young people are becoming music artists of this genre as they have easy and cheap access to the tools required. Because of this many people who were very unknown yesterday are becoming rapidly famous in the genre today. Due to this I aim to use post-dubstep eletronica-influenced urban RnB style music in my video as it not only fits the high-tempo and intense nature of the activities taking place but it will also appeal and be relatable to an enormous audience.

I have played percussion and drum kits for bands for about five years. Despite this, the music we play or could orchestrate is of the wrong genre and includes the wrong instruments - PDEIUR mainly consists of heavily electronically modified or created sounds. I am somewhat unexperienced in producing my own music of this genre so I am currently looking at other options. Due to my ownly funding being personal budget I cannot afford to purchase the rights to commercial music.

After some research I have created a list of contacts I have in this music genre's industry:

-South West Connections, friends, local rap and modern hip hop artist group
     -Here's a taster example http://soundcloud.com/mc-grorty/raw-art-of-raw-instrumental
-RJD2 American Artist, worked with to make music for a short-film in the past
     -Taster:


-Mr Scruff UK Artist, met at local gig
     -Taster:


-Hospital Records, record company, worked with in the past to use music in short-film, manage big artist names such at Netsky and Camo & Krooked

-TheCaptainMan, dub-step orientated artist, worked with previously to make a short film, was excellent at helping me pick and fine-tune tracks to suit my film.

I will continue my research outside of my contacts too and post again on this soon
