On Thursday, we sat down as a group and discussed our options for music. Whilst I had been working on editing the footage, Molly had gone away and sent out a Tumblr post to recruit someone who was willing to allow us to use their music for our videos. Molly had received a really positive turnout and we had a wide selection to choose from. However, we decided that we wanted to use music from the same artist, as this would allow for some consistency and would also make things like getting permission and payment if the artist, respectfully, wanted to be paid for the music a lot easier.
After listening to some of the artists that had caught our interest we finally settled on Vinnie Neuberg. We felt that his music fit well with the Dazed Media brand and our ideas. We wanted a kind of 'retro' vibe, which we felt Vinnie's work definitely had. We also felt that his work had a nice pace and would fit nicely with our footage.
After confirming it was okay to use his music through email, he very kindly gave us the album we were interested in for free and gave us freedom over which tracks we used.
Overall, I feel that we have music that is appropriate for our ideas, that fits well with the overall theme of the project.
