Music Treatment



Three songs important to me

Linkin Park - What I've done


I was introduced to Linkin Park from a movie called Transformers which had included this song at the end of the movie. I then started to listen to many of their songs which as well in the next Transformers, another Linkin Park song was in it called 'New Divide'.


I Got U - Duke Dumont




This song has always been my favourite as it reminds me of an expedition in Year 11 where we finished our IGCSE's and had a break and the beat of the music was very relaxed and fun to listen to. My friend introduced me to this song and i would always play it during summer break.

Busy Earnin' - Jungle




I was introduced to a new artist in 2014 called Jungle. They were a new group forming and had to find where to advertise its new song. It came on FIFA 15 which became very popular now with 8 million views. I played the game for 500 hours last year which many songs came through my mind but only this song represented the whole game for me.
