When looking at different music channels in which my song would fit in I had to consider what ones would play a basic Indie genre as a whole instead of focusing on the main sub genre of Indie rock. I decided that Sky would be a suitable source where our music channel would come from. This is because Sky is one of the biggest Television providers in the UK and has a vast amount music television channels with a wide variety of genres. By using Sky I have picked out six potential channels I felt could possibly broadcast my music video according to genre. The channels are:
- MTV Rocks,
- Viva,
- VH1,
- QTV,
- Kerrang!
- 4Music
All of these logos are easily recognised by the public ad even more so by those who listen to music channels. Even those who do not listen to music channels would be able to tell that it was in some form of music broadcasting due to the fact that most of them have the word music in them or are recognised to be a form of music broadcasting
I believe that these five music channels suit my targeted audience and potentially could show my video. For example, 4Music usually broadcasts festivals throughout the year which contain indie content, which is my genre. Viva on the other hand ranges from different genres as it broadcasts weekly hits. The genre ranges from Indie, Pop, Hip-Hop, Rock etc. Q has evolved through the years, as in years gone by they only used to broadcast Rap and RnB songs. Now they broadcasts Indie music, which shows that Indie music is on its way up and becoming more popular. Ironically this is was never intended as Indie was meant to be "individual" and out of mainstream.
