John Newman - Previous Songs / Artist Research

John Newman is our artist and sings the song that we are going to make a video to. As we have been researching him it has come clear he has some different songs but they are all very meaningful, they are also very soulful.

The track we are doing is Love Me Again witch is very pop and also soul. He sings about loving somebody again and the lyrics show us that he is singing with meaning.







 
This song 'Losing sleep' Is yet again about love. Losing sleep over somebody he loves prehaps. This also had a solful and pop genre. Similar to our song 'Love Me Again.




This Song 'Cheating' Yet again about love and cheating, sounds like his is singing to a female. Also with a souldful and pop feel.

All of the music videos are within the same Genre 'Smooth' and 'Soulful' . They all deliver the same feel to match his music and singing very much.

AARON C - Artist Website

WEBSITE
This is the link to the website i created for my artist 'Aaron C' . I Created the website using wix.

Clean Bandit - Rather Be.

This song has recently been released and has shot to Number 1. It is a very popular song and the music video is very controversial.


The video is of a asain lady living her daily life singing the song. She is not the artist of the song. The video dosent relate to the song at all as the song is of a dance and house genre, videos in this genre are usually of people dancing and a dj etc.

Digi Pack

When a cd or album is released these days a digi pack and album come with it. The Digipack contains more information about the artist and also the making of the album.

For our artist John Newman i am going to create a digi pack. This will contain photos of our artist and lyrics to the song. Also more information about the artist and up coming events etc. This will promote the artist and entertain the audience.
