Possible music track choices

In order to create our music video, we have to first find a suitable track that has a variety of different tempos, is between 2:30-3:30 minutes long, and is of high recording quality. Below are my top 3 possible tracks to use for my music video.

The first track that I am considering using for my music video is by Hudson Taylor, a Northern Irish unsigned band and are an acoustic folk band similar to that of Mumford and Sons. The song itself is ideal in its song length, lasting just over 3 minutes meaning that we do not need to cut the song down to match the criteria set, as well as this, it also gives us enough time to create a good story and narrative structure. The song itself is quite well written, however the drawbacks for using this song are that the recording is not of a high quality compared to my other alternative music choices.


My second song choice is by 'Josh Flowers & The Wild' who are a small local band from Norwich, who again fall under the genre of folk. The advantages of this song are that the recording copy itself is better than the previous song. It also has a variety of different dynamics and tempos in comparison to the Hudson Taylor song, and although the song itself is my personal favorite  I do not think the recording copy is of high enough quality to be used for my music video.


My final possible song choice is by Firehorse, an American band, under the genre alternative electro. The advantages of the song are that it has again a variety of instruments  beats and tempos, making it dynamically interesting as a song choice, as well as the high quality of its recording. However the song is very quirky and creating a music video to accompany such an alternative sounding song may be difficult.
