Jupiter Rising - Electropop [LINK]

 

  •  This is a performance based video
  • The frame is stretched like a movie just to the centre
  • This is R and B electro pop
  • They rap infront of expensive care with bright clothes and lots of jewlery
  • The female singer is seen taking a photoshoot to appeal to the male gaze

Peaches - F*** the Pain Away [LINK]


  • This is a video in which the female is dressed skimpily and dancing around the men to appeal to the male gaze
  • You could say this is an example of sexism but a post feminist would say she is clearly dominating her environment with a chosen instead of forced action
  • The footage appears black and white to signify shes new and the men are uptight and old fashioned The videos in this genre are the same as in synthpop this genre only reffers to an era of Synthpop
This genre of music is no different from Synthpop because it is only an ere of it therefore the videos are no different
