Music & Sound

Sunday, March 12, 2017

I briefly want to discuss the type of music and sound I've been considering for my film. I want the introduction and ending of my production to include music, which is where I think there will be no dialogue. Since I think the introduction will basically consist of a robbery scene, I also want to include side effects that will resemble alarms and sirens. 

Some of the music I have been considering is that of Moow, Grimes, Spirit Ghost, Tame Impala and Manu Chao. All of these music groups seem to "fit" with the film direction I am planning, but ultimately I won't know what is best until I actually produce the video. Here are some samples of what I have in mind:

Grimes: Oblivion


Moow: Honey


Tame Impala: The Less I Know The Better


Spirit Ghost : Young In A Garden



Manu Chao: Bongo Bong



Besides Tame Impala and Manu Chao, the bands above are still relatively small and independent. Since these songs are also copyrighted, I would need to get permission to use them. I decided to research each music group and see how to contact each: 

-Grimes: via website | Contact: Lauren Valencia info@grimesmusic.com

-Manu Chao: via website | management : manuchao.mgmt@corida.fr 

-Moow: via bandcamp | contact : moow.contact@gmail.com

-Spirit Ghost: via bandcamp | contact : spiritghostbooking@gmail.com

-Tame Imapala: via website | mangement: tameimpala@spinningtopmusic.com

By the end of this following week I plan to contact each of these bands to ask permission to use their music. Hopefully I'll have good news soon!
