SZW Schwarzwald Music Website | Concept Development

Knowledge of the dub-step music genre and an understanding of this client's own unique musical style is the first and most important step toward concept development.

According to Wikipedia:

Dubstep is a genre of electronic dance music that originated in south London, England. Its overall sound has been described as "tightly coiled productions with overwhelming bass lines and reverberant drum patterns, clipped samples, and occasional vocals".

This genre with Jamaican roots is described with adjectives such as grimy, dirty and funky. The client, Schwarzwald defines his personal style as being particularly dark, sinister and heavy, yet having intelligence and classical motifs. When asked to provide a visual image to evoke the emotions for his styling, I was given the great marble sculpture, "Lucifer" for inspiration.

Le génie du mal (installed 1848) or The Genius of Evil, known informally in English as Lucifer or The Lucifer of Liège, is a religious sculpture executed in white marble by the Belgian artist Guillaume Geefs

I  found this montage which we agreed on for an additional source of inspiration for styling.
