Feedback:
the commercial for the vw and ipod i think features the polyphonic spree!
Ten years ago I would have called you crazy if you said there would be a mix of songs from American TV commercials that stands up on it's own. I have no problem with cool songs being farmed for commercials. My turnaround was when the Buzzcocks' "What Do I Get" was used in a car commercial - at first I thought it was a little crass but then it dawned on me that I could hear the Buzzcocks every day - even while watching a Simpsons rerun. There's some great stuff here.
i love tiny spark! this is a cool idea - though i'm still a little uneasy about good music in ads.
i'm into this...and i want it. let me know
awesome idea, can I get a copy?
