RE: Sinister: American Radio and TV Commercials - Double Take
<<did anyone notice the velocity girl song in the volkswagon commercial a year back? >> they must have some hip'n'happening young'uns at the VW commercial-making place because there are lots of offbeat songs featured in their ads, in addition to lush/stereolab/velocity girl/moonpools&caterpillers, they used "little fluffy clouds" by the orb for the new Beetle ads and erm, Hurricane #1. So points for originality at least. And is that "lust for Life" in the new one or just a rip-off?
I heard a rumor that one of the guys from Papas Fritas does music consulting for ad agencies and that he's responsible for all these lovely tunes getting on the TV. Whether that's true or not I have no idea, but it makes for an interesting theory... -tonyk +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister@majordomo.net".
