Marika Hackman - Drown
I recently came across this song and every time I listen to it, it gives me spinal shivers. I was sitting last Tuesday, listening to BBC Radio 6 when this song came on and I instantly had a connection and ideas for a finished music video.
This song follows the psychedelic, moody atmosphere and response I have been looking for. I think it is important to choose the right song song when creating a music video (almost artistic). It is like choosing the right coloured paint for a portrait or painting scenery. You have to get it right otherwise the two wouldn't contrast.
Therefore, with this in mind, I have chosen to change my song from 'Santigold - L.E.S. Artistes' as I feel I would benefit from creating a music video from this song instead. I aim to create a video that is fine art inspired and like the album art for this song, more impressionable.
Some Feedback From My Peers On The Soundtrack:
Lauren Schofield (A-Level Media, Sociology and History student): This song was really enjoyable. I love the serenity of the melody and the bass beat is really haunting. I think this song would be good for an abstract video as it is calming and would be interesting to use with animation or different 'weird' camera effects/edits. I think it is a new kind of sound that people would be interested in listening to because it is not heard often and is a slightly different take on the usual Indie music.
Erin Miller (A-Level English Language, History and Sociology student): I really liked this song as soon as I heard it because it made the hairs on my arms stand on edge.I think even if you didn't listen to the lyrics, the song is still beautiful and you can get lost in it. I feel as though this is a song you could listen to on repeat without getting bored of it and that is a good asset for creating a music video.
