Genre and Audience

My chosen song was produced by a finish rock band ( Rasmus) that formed in 1994 whilst in education. this would be a good thought that at this time the band where aimed to create music for the younge audience (younge adults).
the song blue was released in 1997 in the ablum "playboys" and even though this was a rock album this is is more softer and more melodic from the rest of the album.
the image that the band showed the audience was a younge punk group having fun but now from 2003 he band changed into the dark and black shadow.
in my video for my chosen song,i chose to stick to the punk roch genre but in the video i hope to create the home made video of teenage fun theme, just like in katy perrys new song teenage dream:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=98WtmW-lfeE&ob=av2e.
the Rasmus had already made a video like this with the cong "chill" where it involves the lead singer having medium shots taking of him at the front of a coach ride while it goes to different shots of the band in different band stages and the tour journey in Stockholm, Sweden.

Rock Genre
The genre of music for my chosen music video would be in the category of rock. Rock music is now a popular genre since entering the mainstream in the 1960s. the sound for this sort of music consists of heavy drum, bass and electric guitar which would form together create a heavy beat and mostly uses a simple unsyncopated rhythms with a repetitive drum beat and more than one guitar solo playing in the song. Other instruments have been used in rock music depending on the sub-genre.

Over the years rock music has developed many sub-genre when different stereotypes started to blend different genres with rock such as folk, jazz and much more. The number of sub-genres that have been created have developed like heavy metal, soft rock, punk rock and more. As these sub0genres developed, the sounds that the rock groups or artist have created today have changed and began to sound different which brought in a wider audience from different stereotypes.
To most people, the rock music is recognised as “noise” while image for this genre is mostly seen as dark, heavy, and warn down, most of these members would be seen as were known as hard-drinking, hard-living characters, some even came out with the demonic imagery to try and be this scary group, bands like “lordi” have used this look to come out and appear to be demons who rock.
