ALL THE PEOPLE OFFICIAL VIDEO

So here it is, we are beyond proud to present to you the official video of our new single All The People.

The video was shot in Gambia, Africa and we decided that all the song’s iTunes proceeds will go to the health centre and elementary school in Berrending in Gambia. More information here: www.pallum.nl.
Download ‘All The People’ on iTunes HERE.

Obviously we’d like to create a big buzz to raise as much money for Berending as possible. Sharing on facebook, retweeting, blogging, etc is much much appreciated (see the facebook en twitter icons below). We also made a short documentary about the school and health centre, watch it here.

Thanks so much for your help and support and till we meet again!

With love,
Robin, Hubrecht, Laurens, Tom and Jordy

ALL THE PEOPLE VIDEO – UPDATE FROM AFRICA

Today is my third day of filming for the video for our upcoming single ‘All The People’. I flew to Gambia to film people, surroundings and other shots that contribute to the meaning of the song. I like songs that can be interpretated in different ways, and I think our songs more or less have that aspect to them. I usually find myself with my eyes closed listening to the song over and over as I am trying to put my thoughts for a video on paper.

I woke up today in the five star hotel I’m staying at. I didn’t sleep well because I was attacked by mosquitos all night (just like every other night), and if they were not buzzing around me to keep me from sleeping, the frogs outside gathered an immense choir to do the job. It’s a shame that I only sleep at the hotel and not really get to enjoy every luxury it has to offer. It is a shallow oasis in a desert of poverty and unbelievable inhuman circumstances. When I arrived here on Friday evening, I had the feeling that this was not the Africa that I was about to discover. And I was right.

Before flying to The Gambia, I had contact with Denis. A man from Holland who gave up his perfect Dutch life to help people here who need it the most in the world. He is a doctor and he moved over here to start a health center in a remote village about an hour South of where I am staying (Banjul). The story he told me triggered us to make a video that shows how important it is to take care of each other. I have seen some shocking things here, even though I have been here for only three days. I met a little boy who was gathering things he could use on a massive waste disposal site. The little man was eight years old. Things like that are painful to see even on television, but unfortunately this time I coundn’t change the channel. What also stikes me is the way people here help one another. Even though they hardly have anything to spend, they share everything they have. Heart warming to see from the people that earn as much as twice what I have to pay for a meal at the hotel restaurant.

This may sound cliche, but I think it is good to take a moment every once in a while to think how good life is. We are all the same and we are there for each other. It doesn’t hurt to help, even the smallest gesture like a smile can make somebody’s day.

We have decided to support the people here in Gambia that make a big difference. The people that gave up their easy lives, left their house and family behind. We are donating the earnings from ‘All The People’ to the health center and elementary school in Berrending, Gambia. It’s the least that we can do.

HELP MAKING THE VIDEO FOR OUR NEXT SINGLE

We need everyone around the globe to work with us to realize the video for our next single
‘All The People‘. Any age, any color, any location: we need it all! Do you have-, or know someone with a camera or phone with which you can film in HD, this is what you can do to be a part of the project:

- find a location in your area that is typical for your environment (think about nature, famous buildings or other landmarks).
- sing along with the chorus of ‘All The People’ and have someone film you. Make sure you can see the surroundings.
- Use camera settings 16:9 (widescreen) and film in HD. The higher the quality the bigger the chance we’ll use it.
- download the part you need to sing HERE
- upload the video on wetransfer.com to email address info@destinemusic.com, before May 15th.

If your parents, grandparents, neighbours, or whoever want to be part of it too, they are more than welcome. The more different people, the better! Keep in mind that we can only use individual shots, so don’t film more that one person singing at a time. Find a different location and follow the same steps given above.

Let’s make this a video to show the world that we are proud of each other!

Lyrics:
All the people
Awake or dreaming
Now it’s real
The things I’m seeking
All the people
Keep me dreaming
If they don’t see you
The way I’m seeing you
