J Balvin / Willy William: “Mi Gente (Remix)” (2017)
But his actual relationship to such sources could be hard to read: Was Maus poking fun at music’s power to manufacture an emotional response, like when we find ourselves crying in the middle of a commercial, or celebrating its potential to offer us a fleeting moment of ecstasy, a glimpse of a world that is better than our own? Arriving at the end of 2011’s We Must Be the Pitiless Censors of Ourselves with the cathartic finality of perfectly curated exit music, this song-with its glittering harpsichord arpeggios, briskly pulsing bass, and grandiose allusions to borderless love-is the closest Maus has ever come to being a true believer. * The Hilltop Monitor has permission from video producer Sam Sullivan to link and feature this video.Like many of his lo-fi pop contemporaries in the early ’10s, reclusive Midwesterner John Maus pushed underground music forward by looking backward-rejecting digital studio techniques in favor of old drum machines and wonky synths, excavating the dramatic excesses of ’80s stadium pop and sentimental radio jingles as though they held clues to some hard-to-pinpoint generational subconscious. The video can be accessed here and heard before Jewell home games. It’s an expression of Jewell pride and a representation of the football team’s progress and improvement. The “Answering the Call” music video is exciting, spirited and engaging. It’s the reason why I want to get into the field of videography and production,” said Sullivan of working on the video. It’s hard work and a lot of fun at the same time. We got to use the football field late at night and act like a bunch of hooligans. I love it when a group of people can get together and come up with something creative and fun and work to make a quality video. “I had so much fun making that video with those guys. 5 – during homecoming week before the team’s homecoming win against Southwest Baptist University – to amp up fans and players for the game. “We collaborated with Sam on some ideas and recorded the music video week three of the season but decided it would have a greater impact if we waited till homecoming weekend to release it,” said Taylor of the production and release. Our team was excited about the whole process and I think we all had a great time filming it,” Colum commented on the making of the video. We then talked to our coaches and got permission to use the weight room, uniforms and football field and the rest was history. “ listened to our song and agreed to help and pretty much directed the entire video and gave us an outline of good places and times to get some good footage to put together. “I was already good friends with Sam and have nothing but good words to say about him as a person and I knew he was an outstanding part of video shows in so I reached out to him,” said Colum of working with his high school friend Sullivan to produce the video. Sullivan is interested in video production, has made videos in the past and had wanted to make a music video, so he was excited to help. Colum and Taylor reached out to Sam Sullivan, senior communication major, to produce such a video. They realized that making a music video could be a fun extension onto the song. The team responded positively after hearing the song and making it the walkout song. The two recorded their song in the Pryor Learning Commons media room before playing it during the first week of practice for the team and distributing it on social media. He picked up on the vibe and wrote his lyrics as well as the ,” said Taylor of their collaboration. “He sent me a couple of instrumentals and I wrote a verse to it.
He reached out to Taylor to help make the song over the summer, and the two created the beat and lyrics. “We wanted to make a song that related to our team and provided energy for our guys and we also play the song as our walkout music for home games where we have played our best football,” said Colum of his brainchild.īecause Colum has been interested in rapping and hip-hop and has previously made other songs, he was excited to create an appropriate song to play over the stadium speakers.
Written and performed by team members Donte Colum, senior business administration major, and Justice Taylor, senior physics major, “Answering the Call” hypes up the team before home games. The day before William Jewell College’s homecoming football game, the football team released a music video to accompany an original song, “ Answering the Call ” – the new semi-official anthem of the team. “This life was chosen for the Cardinals on the rise, we flyin’ flocks and push limits past the sky.”
