My Role
The genre of this show was extremely important to me as I wanted it to be fun but avoid music for children. I decided to go more on the pop/punk root with inspiration from Paramore’s album “After Laughter” and synths that may be found in pop. This underlined with electric guitar and drums. We then twisted the whole show around at a turning point, with it getting a lot darker via more ambiences, drones and heavier guitar.
