Initial Research Into Music Choices

To start off my research into what music I was going to use for my animation I scrolled through my entire 12000 song iTunes library and YouTube history to try and find songs that I thought worked well.

I will make my final decision by listening through each one and trying to imagine the animatic and reading the voice-over out loud, although this is subject to change once I have something more solid to look and play the music along with.
