Research planning music

 For my music research project, I was put in a very unique situation. I never listen to rock or know of many artists, so it was a new challenge for me. I learned about a new music genre and its audience. The bands I researched have a very specific target audience that is very loyal and passionate.

In class, it took longer than expected to settle down on two artists. I wanted to do a unique and interesting group to research to make the process more fun. Sleep Token’s unique masks intrigued me, so that was my first option.

After Sleep Token, I chose bury tomorrow. They are also signed to Basic Records, and I chose them due to their passionate and emotional music.

For my research, I went on all their social media, and even went on Tik tok to understand their audience and what they like and don’t like about them. It gave me a better understanding of what these bands were trying to do. For both bands, I quickly learned about their loyal and passionate fan bases. Both bands have a very easy-to-use and accessible website that allows their audience to know everything they need to know about them.

I had so much fun researching that I did not realize how much time had gone by. I knocked the door hole project out as soon as I got home. I also went on google and used a bit of AI for the backgrounds and key information I should know about them.

Overall, I had a lot of fun researching and learning how this music genre markets, distributes, and produces to a very passionate fan base.
