No Hummers and no mayonnaise commercials . . . The Black Keys dish on licensing their music and seem to have a good head on their shoulders and perspective on music for advertising in this interview. Baby's gotta eat!
We love parodies. This one is a musical parody wrapped in an advertising parody - like a super-awesome O Fortuna cookie!! Ha, I made a funny! (get it, O Fortuna cookie).
Hello Tater Twisters and Certs with Retsyn! Straight out the "OH NO YOU DIDN'T" vault comes the embarrasing television commercials from the 1980s and 1990s that we all spent millions producing. Yikes! It's hard to believe how far we have come in such a short amount of time (sentimental sigh). Breakout the synclaviers and big hair.
After our a short hiatus The Diner Musings is back bringing you the very best of production music . . . And, as not to skip a beat (pun intended), we found this gem . . . Ah, we love the high-brow, clever diddys.
Love this spot. Book-ended by Johann Strauss II, On The Beautiful Blue Danube, Opus 314 and punctuated by a driving middle, the music is smart, recognizable and tasteful and does a good job of accentuating the parody.
Listen to the full recording of On The Beautiful Blue Danube used in this commercial from an amazing string section recorded in Prague here. Go Diner! Go Mario! Go Johann!
