This is just a random post about me and explaining what I do and why.
I don't write reviews or take pictures because I have to or feel like I do, I do all of this because I love it and have so much passion and enthusiasm for it. It's the only thing that I feel like I am relatively good at and can carry on as a career in my life, as I can't see myself doing anything else.
As you can tell my reviews are very personal and bias in ways as I do used first person pronoun, however I feel it just lets me explain my experience better. I do try and give an honest and open overview on the music, but if I generally love a and I am sure to be excited about them however this does not stop me from writing the truth.
If I don't like a performance or sound then I won't hesitate to state so, as I'm not one to sugar-coat music no matter what, however I would never slater a band off as I do try to find positive aspects out of any situation. I feel like a lot of reviews which are published on known organisations are very dull and filled with lies, due to rules and regulations. By publishing work on my blog I can really say what I want without falling under these limitations.
It would be nice to work for a large organisation but not permanent (depending if I actually liked it or not) The experience would be great for me as in a couple of months I will be going to University in Southampton to study Music Journalism further.
What would be a dream for me is to go travelling across the world, on tour with a band, filming taking snaps, making tour videos and writing up the whole experiences for everyone to share. I don't really expect to get paid for this or do it for the money as there is NO MONEY involved at all from this. I'd just like to do it for fun as well as something I can say I'm proud of and have accomplished in my life. It's a far fetch and a total dream but I'm pretty motivated and dedicated for it to happen.
I want to do as much as I can before I go to uni as I know that this will give me a massive advantage there. In the few months I have been taking my work seriously, I have gotten pretty far. I've met a load of cool new people from bands to photographers to promoters, it's been such an amazing experiences already and I'm just starting.
I love travelling to new places for gigs and I am actually willing to do so for bands, as done in the past I mostly visit Sheffield but also now have explored Liverpool, Southampton, Leeds and Manchester, I plan to go to more places in the summer but all this travelling has left me pretty broke and tired.
First thing I actually need is my own camera, as I am currently borrowing the schools. Once that's sorted and I gather all the right equipment, I can finally start to make more films and music videos as well as progress with my photography.
So if you need anything done this summer then be sure to give me a shout as I am more than willing to help you out if I can.
I know my work isn't really professional or up to top standards yet but it's a working process, I do try to keep everything clean and short, also written to a professional view without letting my own opinions get the best of me.
As I said this is just a random post about what I kind of do, as I want to progress and write more about music not just reviews of gigs and albums.
Knowing that not many people will actually read this or my blog doesn't really bother me, it's not about the hits or how known you are, it's about what you have to say and if just one person likes my work then I would feel like I have accomplished something.
I maybe posting less now but when exams are over this blog will be filled with heaps of new stuff so stay tuned!
