Totally not metal: my new video (piano ballad)

[smy1]

Check it out. It's for wimpy dudes like me ... and girls!

I like it. :danceboy:

Interesting facial hair choice there dude (like a chin strap...on your neck? Must be a German thing ) And the thick emo-glasses, eek...but not a bad song, I like the cello and subtle beat (reminds me of Linkin Park's "My December," for better or for worse ), and it's catchy. Good English pronunciation, too! And the production values on the video are pretty impressive, I like the filming style in terms of shots and the color choices. And that's an adorable dog

Did you record the audio yourself? The piano sounds really good, very full.

One of the best songs I've heard from UM tbh.

Thanks to everyone for chiming in! Glad you like it!

Haha, that kind of beard is quite regular in Germany, indeed ... I wear it to give shape to my less-than-chiseled chin

The piano is Steinberg The Grand VST (the original one). Quite some post-processing though ...

Filming the video and editing it took 3 days of straight 16h shooting/editing every day, so 48h but it was worth it.

The video is mainly a promo tool to coincide with the announcement of a new record label and the release date of the next Faderhead album. If you liked it, go to www.l-tracks.com and sign up for the newsletter. You'll get a free mp3 with the song as a little incentive. I'll then keep you updated on new tracks etc. (mostly electronic stuff though) ...

Great song. Everything is very pro, too.
