I'm a 2nd year digital arts student and am producing a full-length ski film for a school project, it's called "wtf is style?". About a month ago I began tracking down music, everything from recording my friends jamming on guitar, asking local DJ's and students in music school to writing emails to bigger names such as; When Saints Go Machine, Jay Dee's Label, Flume, Santigold etc. just to see if I might get lucky.
Last Monday I heard back from my favourite rap group, Hieroglyphics Imperium, and the news was good. So good I had to read the email like 3 times before I believed it.
In the email I sent them I mentioned being a broke-ass student and, as much as I wanted to, I couldn't offer them money. So instead, I offered my graphic arts skills in exchange for using one of their songs in my film.
They were into it, and now I'm making them a shred-based music video for one of the songs in this playlist:

I'm having a hard time deciding and would love to hear everyone's thoughts on which song I should choose, ie. whichi song is most appropriate for a ski and snowboard edit.
My favourites are: Oh Molly, MDMA, Rewire and Molly's Orders.
And here's a link to my most recent trailer, to give you an idea of my editing style:
