Genre Of Music

After choosing a variety of different videos to analyse for the research and planing, deciding on a genre was something that we had to experiment with. After taking into consideration the different settings and atmospheres that would have to feature in songs of different genres, this then meant that it made it easier to straight away eliminate particular categories and genres of music. Once we had narrowed the genres down we came up with 2 genres that we feel we would both like to work with when creating the final piece. These two were, indie-pop and mainstream pop. The main reason for narrowing the choices down to these two was based on a decision revolving around the music that we are used to listening to and enjoy ourselves. After taking all our options into consideration we have chosen to pick a song that falls into the category of 'mainstream pop'. We hope to be taking inspiration from artists such as Lily Allen, Eliza doolittle, Florence and the machine and many others when thinking of ideas for our own final piece.
