About Bassboosa

Jasmine and Tim met whilst working in a London record store a few years ago and began writing and recording songs together, blending atmospheric pop with strong melodies, stirring lyrics and a creative mix of electronic and live instrumentation.

They have just completed their much anticipated, self-produced debut album which was written, recorded and mixed almost entirely in Tim’s makeshift studio in his parent’s attic! Coming from very different musical backgrounds - Jasmine’s influences from the likes of Jewel, Alanis and Tracy Chapman, whilst Tim has come from a strong classical background with a passion for electronic music – they have created a unique sound of their own, instantly recognizable by Jasmine’s intoxicating and infectious vocals combined with Tim’s intricate and atmospheric musical textures and production.

Thanks to huge support from Sat Bisla’s Passport Approved radio show in the US (aired on Indie 103.1, LA, WEQX, NY and KNRK, Portland, OR) 2006 saw Bassboosa finding themselves a loyal fanbase before they had even finished or released their record.

Their cover of the Chris Isaak classic "Wicked Game" became a No.1 hit on KNRK, Portland, Oregon. "It is the most requested song we've ever had in the 11 years we have been on the air," says KNRK programme director, Mark Hamilton. Word is now spreading fast and radio stations all over the US and now in the UK are picking up on the Bassboosa vibe.

2006 also saw Bassboosa move onto the stage with their fantastic band. In May they played their first US dates. As well as a packed acoustic evening at LA's Key Club, they also headlined to a capacity audience at the Crystal Ballroom in Portland, Oregon, selling over 1700 tickets.

Now, with the album ready for release, the video for the new single "Succumb" nearly finished and tour dates announced in both the US and Europe, 2008 looks set to be an even more exciting year for the band.

For our production we are using hardly any props but what we are using is:


A bed

Pyjamas

Dark clothingWe are limiting the amount of props we use to ensure that the viewers attention is mainly on the story of the video and on the main characters.

Lyrics


Title: Bassboosa (Chris Isaak) - Wicked Game lyrics


The world was on fire
No one could save me but you.
Strange what desire will make foolish people do
I never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you
And I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you

No, I don't want to fall in love
[This love is only gonna break your heart]
No, I don't want to fall in love
[This love is only gonna break your heart]
With you
With you

What a wicked game you play
To make me feel this way
What a wicked thing to do
To let me dream of you
What a wicked thing to say
You never felt this way
What a wicked thing to do
To make me dream of you
v And I don't wanna fall in love
[This love is only gonna break your heart]
And I don't want to fall in love
[This love is only gonna break your heart]

{World was on fire
No one could save me but you
Strange what desire will make foolish people do
I never dreamed that I'd love somebody like you
I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you

No I don't wanna fall in love
[This love is only gonna break your heart
No I don't wanna fall in love
[This love is only gonna break your heart]
With you
With you

Nobody loves no one

Video Inspirations





John Scatman - Scatman

This video gave us some ideas for editing. The way a bunch of shots are placed randomly on the screen. All of the same shot, gives the video a unique look.

Blink 182 - Always
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uUDCEzfPxw4

This video has inspired us to recreate the three way shot for our video. We hope to do this with one of our shots.

Craig David - Walking Away
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fuNqDBstipU

The walking away video has a lot of fading shots, such as a lampost fading into a tree. And urban areas fading into an autumn forest. This has given us some ideas for our video. In one of our shots we hope to film clouds for a few hours then speed up the frame rate to shrink it to about 15 seconds; we could then fade it into another shot, such as people walking fast. Using the same technique as the cloud shot.


Zocalo feat. Gabriel and Dresden inspired us because it has a few original shot ideas in it. Such as 0.31-.0.33 where the camera pans into her eye and as she blinks it changes to another shot. As the video is quite mellow as laid back, we felt like we could use some of the shots for our video.






This video has the same concept that we would like to use. Increased frame rate on a shot, giving it quite an abstract feel, it makes the video seem a lot more ambient, rather than its telling a story.
