The song i've chosen to represent and want to use for our music video is called B0NGB0NG 

https://soundcloud.com/elastybeats/elasty-bongbong

The song comes under EDM/ Trap- Electronic Dance music/ Trap- and so would fit the current popular genre of EDM at this point in time. Dance music is very big at the moment, and there are many videos which do not involve any sining, and the music video works very well, therefore i believe we would be capable of making a music video for this song.

The song has a nice drop- which replaces a chorus in a song- and would be highly appreciated at this point in time in the music scene. 

Bare in mind this song was created by him when he was 14. We can appreciate his talent for music at such a young age, in such a genre which would usually be done by DJs between the ages of 18-30.
