Unsigned artists ensure that I will not get any issues with copyright. The artists that are unlikely to respond are the mainstreams ones like Justin Bieber, and One Direction
The artists that are more approachable, are unsigned and have a smaller fanbase, therefore they are more likely to respond
Streaming sites such as Soundcloud have numerous artists. This makes it more likely to find an unsigned artist that will be okay with us using their track. It is the most efficient way, perhaps of asking for permission
Ideal track
The track should be no longer than 5 minutes, and no less than 3 minutes. It should not be too fast, or too slow. Perhaps, something upbeat enough to be exciting but can be easily followed without looking like a mess. There should be enough lyrics to avoid, awkward gaps of music
Genres to avoid
Rap – Although it may be upbeat, most rap contains not just bad language but frequent sexual and explicit references. Also, the lyrics are normally fast so it may look like a pathetic attempt to look like you have the same flow
Country – It is difficult to adapt to the conventional setting of country landscape, and cowboy attire. It would be even more difficult to access these areas due to the sort of town I listen to
Dubstep – This genre doesn’t have many vocals and the performance will not be as great.
Marian Hill - One Time
Jet Black Alley Cat - Poisen
Cherry V - Stole my heart beat
