Video Topic Suggestions?

[Narukami]

Hey, everyone! 

I wanna start making videos on Youtube that will discuss topics related to music in a smart and interesting way. Not like music theory or tutorials and stuff but more like essays related to music but in video form. I already watch this sort of content but most of it's related to gaming and stuff, and I don't think there's a lot of channels on Youtube that actually talks about music in a deeper way. I love those kinds of videos and I think it'd be interesting to make videos in that fashion. Yeah, there's channels on Youtube related to music (original artists, parody music, music reviews, etc) but none that really talks music in depth.

 

As an example, I already made a video in this sort of style. Check it out and you can get an idea of what I mean:

(PS. pls give critique about the formatting or issues you might have with this video)

 

Another video that talks about music in a similar vein is Mark Ronson's Ted Talks and his topic about sampling:

 

 

I have a few ideas in mind right now but I'd also like some suggestion from you guys for topics to talk about  

 

I only have three ideas so far and those ideas are:

1) Why do we hate pop music? - I discuss pop music and everything that's right and wrong with it. Not the most original topic but I'll try to be as in depth as possible.

2) Why Spotify sucks if you love music - I talk about why Spotify (and other similar services) is decreasing the value of music with more people looking at music as a commodity instead of this important piece of media. (Note: I don't hate Spotify, lol)

3) A List 7 Uplifting Songs - I provided a very personal and in-depth list of 7 songs that I find helps me lift my spirits. 

 

Those are the ideas I have so far, any suggestions would be helpful! Also, tell me if this is a good idea or not, I don't want to waste my time making videos that aren't interesting to anyone.

Cheers

sounds great man. def be one of your first subs
i think you could also cover money and artists, free vs paid music and about independent artists.

could also look at technology used over the years and trends such as vinyl and stuff like tidal

Yeah this is cool. It'll be good to hear your views and opinions on some industry related things. I thought of doing something similar so I'm down for this. 

I'd love to hear your thoughts on djing and the industry as you've experienced it

Glad you guys dig this idea! I honestly though people won't be on board for this.

Thanks man! I like the latter idea. It'd seem like an interesting video to watch over a lunch break haha. The former though, I'm not sure how I'd go with that. Maybe I could talk about the issue oof piracy in music, though it may end up sounding preachy.

Hey man, if you ever wanna do a video like this together, we totally could! Send me a PM if you want

Unfortunately, I don't have any "real" experience with DJing. I've only done mobile gigs for private functions. I've never even been to a club haha

I'm not sure if a podcast would be interesting enough format though
