Insight

Music starts with a feeling.

A fleeting emotion that first compels the artist. It seeds a musical idea, nurtured in the street, grown in the studio, as creative spirit and craft is infused. It’s this raw feeling that resonates with audiences the world over: the universal language of music speaks to everyone.

Idea

The emotion of music, from the artist to you.

Intimate documentary footage offers a behind the scenes glimpse into the unique personal experiences that inspired ‘Without Me’ by Halsey and ‘Sunflower’ by Post Malone and Swae Lee to reveal the emotions behind the music, as originally felt and intended.
