It's good that you're trying to make people aware. It could use work, though. This is background music combined with samples. I would expect such samples to be alternated with couplets and a chorus. Now it looks kind of like a preview of something, but it doesn't say what.

Also a note in terms of the selection of samples. You picked some important ones but it'd be more powerful if you picked things that would alarm and shake up the average person by itself. The WTC7 collapse is a step in the right direction but then the voice-over is about passports. Without commentary, they will simply take that as something plausible. Would've been better if that was about a third collapse on 9/11. The others are likewise mostly interesting for people already in the know, but they aren't good as introductory material.

Why do you unlist these...? To avoid hurting your business? Perhaps you could make a separate channel for them and draw a different audience than your main one.

This isn't a music video; it's an arthouse college-student project and I didn't have the patience for it. It was boring. Well-shot and all, if you actually produced this and didn't just buy stock footage of a CRT TV in a graveyard. But yeah, didn't hold my attention cause I was expecting actual music here.

I have a concern when I post music here that doesn't kick off immediately that people will simply get bored and wander off before checking it out, or at best skip randomly ahead.

Those first 15 seconds could use something to hook people's attention. What about a quick cutaway to a compelling image. Personally my vote would be for a pretty woman dancing.

was it supposed to be about the music? Because that was nothing noticeable. The clips were just regurgitated and already jumped their sharks long ago. Nothing that made me want to subscribe, that's for sure. Good try I guess...
