Long time but I have 3...
Since the escapades of last year, I almost forgot that I had one of these blogs, I've made 3 music videos... That's my flavour in the world of filmmaking, I'm a music video director man.
The first of my videos was 'Tor Nagni' for Des-C, the main focus of the song was the dance routine and Des-C's dynamite energy in front of the camera. Away from the typical club video and 'uncles dancing in car parks with their nieces' I wanted to created 3:30 mins of hot with studio slick style.
My second video was for the D-Boy, the producer of Hard Kaur's 'Look for Me' and now 'Tu Bataja' (You Tell Me?) feat. Des-C unique vocals. 'Tu Bataja' is D-Boy's take on a Hindi/Urdu language song penned by a Punjabi artist with R&B production sensibilities and a sprinkling of Ghazal style. D-Boy says: "Tu Bataja has to be one of the strongest tracks on the album. I began sketching musical ideas for the track and Des-C had great ideas for a story about forgiving person who has been unfaithful and the pain involved in the process." I came into the equation when I paid D-Boy a visit at his studios in Souf Landan, only a few hours earlier Des-C had finished laying the vocals. D-Boy played a rough version and I stated to him there and then, that if a video is to be made for this track it has to be made by me. The most challenging aspect for me was the incorporation of the producer-artist (as it's a D-Boy track) into the video as more than just a cameo... The subtext is that D-Boy is the 'Other Man' in the broken love between Des-C and Maysoon...

Now there's some interest in my work, next up was 'Rush' for Veronica. From the Rishi Rich camp of British-Asian music production, this was light electro RnB- what appealed to me was the sound that Rishi had produced. The task was to create Veronica a video different from her others. Here's the outcome.
