tee hee hee ... so naive
* Has it occurred to you that drum and bass is a totally mainstream musical
form right now and that it's hardly obscure or underground at all,
especially to people who make ads?
* Has it occurred to you that many drum and bass musicians make most of
their living off of selling their music to advertisers?
* Has it occurred to you that people who make ads might in fact be cooler
than you think? Yes, for every IDM fan working in the advertising world
there are probably 100 people whose idea of what's good music is based
exclusively on what's in the Billboard top 40. But those people don't make
Microsoft and VW ads - they work for Proctor and Gamble, AOL, and the WB. I
would bet that of the working adults on the IDM list (the few of us that
there are) there are probably a disproportionally large number of people
working for the advertising industry, major or major-indie label record
industry, or some kind of mainstream media company.
