Music for Automotive Cinematography

[StealthiE30]

Any thing by pretty lights, gramatik, bassnectar, feed me, and rusko should work.

Heres an example of each.

Are you trying to use dubstep?

I try not to, but I'm also not against using it. I guess if I'm to be more specific, I don't like "hardcore" or crazy dubstep stuff. I'm very open minded with music so any suggestion will be taken into consideration.

Might find some stuff here:

Everything is free. And it's a different pace from what most people use in car videos, at least in my opinion.

I really want to get into automotive photography and cinematography as a hobby...

Hey guys,

Lately i've been shooting a lot of automotive videos for friends and events, but I have really been needing to stock up on some new music material to for videos. Im not entirely happy with what I have. To give you and idea of what makes a good song for a video. There basically needs to be obvious points in which would be a good time to use a frame change. A basic frame change would be on the beat of a song, but some songs make obvious upbeats or triplet patters to make frame changed a little more unpredictable and entertain the viewer. This is the main reason why a lot of cinematographers use dubstep (wubwubwub). It has a very obvious beat, but it can also be unpredictable with beat patterns. Plus its very active which can help hold the attention of the viewer.

So are there any particular artists or songs you can see being used for a car video or event coverage? Any suggestion is fine.



If possible, try and choose songs that are creative commons and/or I could purchase somewhere.

Thanks in advance,
Tony
