Unsigned bands and non-copyrighted music research

 Unsigned bands/artists

When looking for a song to use for our music video, we were asked to go away and do individual research on unsigned bands and artists. Using Soundcloud, I found three differing artists. For each song, I was able to think of an idea for a sample promo video.

Lil Peep is an american rapper who produces his own music and uploads to Soundcloud. In terms of success, his music receives a lot of listens and he has almost 50 thousand followers on his Soundcloud.

I initially liked the song because it was slow-paced, however, because the lyrics are so meaningful, they carried a story already. Whilst listening, you already have a pre-conceived idea from the vivid imagery.

This song is definitely my first choice for our music video as so much could be made from the short track, however, this may be too time-consuming and not effective for our frame of time we have to film.

I used bestofbritishunsigned.com to search for some artists/bands within the UK. The first band come from London. Dr!ve like to classify their music as Nu Disco, EDM and House.

I initially liked this song as it had a nice, catchy beat, however
