You and I might be in close proximity of the same business. If I called for walkout music matching a President's/CEO's ethnicity, it would most likely be the last show I called...lol@mgobluevikes said:
Can we talk about the musical choices for high school and college players highlight reels? I could go on and on about this...and I think I will...
I've spent years adding the "perfect" music for business functions, trade shows, conferences, walk-ups, walk-ins and walk-outs. And there are situations where this music makes perfect sense. I've used it myself.
But who's the audience here? Who are you trying to stir up? It ain't your buddies. It ain't 40-year-old soccer moms who try to convince their kids they're "hip to the scene" by wearing Biggie shirts. It's scouts, recruiters and executives. Not that these people are necessarily turned off by this music (they're used to it). Just think more time spent on something more interesting and inspirational could help a player stand out.
I think of the Edwin Diaz walk-out song. I'd never even seen the guy pitch, but when I first heard this I was ready to fucking fight bulls to declare him the greatest reliever of all time.
Context is everything, right?
