Love Island has crossed the pond, and has been causing a storm…. quite literally. The series premiered this week with 11 fresh-faced contestants entering the swanky new Love Island USA villa in Fiji, but on the first episode, it just wouldn’t stop raining! Luckily, the rain didn’t stop the Islanders from getting up to their usual antics as the series has already delivered some serious drama in the few days it’s been on air, with one contestant going after another contestant’s man.
‘Rise’ forms part of his new EP ‘I Thought We’d Be Happy Here’ – a collection of spacious, electronic, piano-led vocal pop tracks, mixed by Tim Rowkins (Mura Masa, Maribou State, Two Door Cinema Club, Rina Sawayama). It encapsulates his desperation in our digital future; a world in which we have everything we want, but little of what we actually need.
An exciting new production album release from A-MNEMONIC. ‘Percussive Adventures’ explores the world of rhythm. From tribal beats to organic sounds, the album is full of energetic drumlines and rhythmic sounds to create a range of moods. Composed by Adrian Leung.
A senior creative confided in me the other day – he didn’t like briefing music, didn’t feel he could talk about music and wished he could ‘brief music better’.
I was somewhat taken aback. Over the three or four projects we had previously worked on together I had never detected any lack of confidence with music briefing.
He expanded: “Oh I really hate dealing with music. I don’t have the language or the experience or the skills to talk about music. I’m intimidated and at sea with the whole prospect of thinking about music, I don’t have the vocabulary and quite happy to pass it on to someone else to deal with!”
It doesn’t have to be like this – briefing music can be good fun and an exciting part of the process. A little bit of forethought with the music can be a fantastic opportunity to be really creative and brave, creating an amazing piece of music that people will remember and become part of the DNA of your ad/film/TV show/experience.
