Beneath The Surface
Behind the Music
Chasing NoiseWhat made this project unique for me was the amount of research and brainstorming involved before the writing process even began. Even though it took hours and hours to ignite the creative spark to begin writing, I gained new knowledge. I tried to incorporate the book, the footage, and the sound samples into my music to tell a story in a different way. Music is an art that connects people. Even purely instrumental music can take you to different places. It’s like reading a novel instead of a comic book. You’re transported to a whole new level of imagination. For this project, I feel that my music can connect reality with the dream of making the ocean beautiful again.
The ocean has its own ecosystem and we should take care of it and respect it. In addition to caring for the ocean’s creatures, we should also be aware of people who take advantage of the ocean. This project helped me realize that the ocean is an area that needs protection.
