CHRISTIAAN BAARTMAN’S NEW MUSIC VIDEO WILL DEFINITELY PUT A SMILE ON YOUR FACE
DIS JY, singer-songwriter Christiaan Baartman’s latest single, has been a favourite on radio stations from the get-go.
Now fans can also enjoy a music video of this folk-pop track that perfectly captures the feel-good vibe of the song.
According to the musician, they originally had a complex idea for the video, until Leon Gropp suggested something different – which included balloons, small instruments and a school hall – that changed the entire concept.
“It is such an upbeat song and we decided to go with a playful video of friends having a good time and playing music together. I am very chuffed with the final product and wouldn’t want it any other way,” he explains. “The song is about the feelings you experience when meeting the love of your life. It is important to remind yourself that love still exists and that it will find you.”
The video was shot by Moving North Media’s Jannes de Villiers in Laerskool Tygerpoort’s school hall. They had loads of fun on set and even added some humour to the day (and video) by giving the guy with the biggest beard, The Captain’s Beard’s Christo Plekenpol, the smallest guitar to play.
DIS JY is the singer’s fourteenth release in three years and follows in the footsteps of chart toppers like As Hy Vir Jou Nog Lief Was, Net ‘n Bietjie, Stof, ‘n Vriend Soos Jy (a duet with Mack Rapapali), My Vrou and Die Beste Deel.
Christiaan has been involved in the music industry for around two decades and released his first album in 2008 at the age of nineteen.
Over the years, he has had many highlights in his career, including winning several music awards; producing a children’s album with Leon Jonkman; progressing to the final rounds of Idols SA in 2006; opening for Smokie in 2012; performing at Huisgenoot Skouspel in 2007 and more.
Currently he is working on several projects and has big and exciting things planned for the future.
DIS JY’s playful and humoristic music video perfectly complements its catchy tunes and meaningful lyrics.
“I really enjoyed making this video, and it is bound to put a smile on the face of anyone who watches it,” he concludes.
