Subject:: [idm] music in commercials & TV

I was disturbed a couple days ago to hear a song from Christophe de Babylon's "If you're into, I'm out of it" during a TV commercial - one of the commercials in the ad campaign airing in the US called 'the truth' (if you haven't seen this, basically they are supposedly exposing 'the truth' about the tobacco industry and its evils. check www.thetruth.com/tvspot/html/index.html, its the 'danny' movie.) Also recently I heard one of tunes from Logical progression 1 (I think it was Bukem's Demons Theme) in the background of that Earth 2000 show that was on one of the major networks. Since this is an increasing trend (use of underground electronic music, to make adverts seem more trendy, I suppose) I wonder if the artists / labels are getting ripped off here. Debatably this exposure is a good thing, because more people are hearing the music - but are they getting paid for this use? I guess I don't really have a point to make (well, maybe the point is that smaller independent labels need to watch their back more often... like the whole UR - Sony crap), but anyone else have comments? or notice other underground stuff on TV? etc?

I notice a lot of music being used commercially and it's up to the artist to recoup royalties from any and all usage of their works. If you are an artist, label like myself (<A HREF="www.complexrecords.com">www.complexrecords .com</A>) Please register yourself with an artist society like BMI or ASCAP to make sure that you are getting what you deserve.

No, no, no, buddy -- Aphex Twin Tamphex would be perfect, naturally. It already samples a Tampax commercial -- "Are you one of those girls for whom time stands still once a month?" Though most adverts want to sooth, not terrorize. Tamphex always struck me as a representation of how a young kid who doesn't understand menstruation might imagine it as something scary and dangerous ... Any of RDJ's tracks that seem to be 'about' anything seem to me to have a child's point of view. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

It's not that the Gap adds aren't good- they're a little *too* good. They're a little too "hip" for their own good. And the "Everybody in Gap" sloganeerings made even my 14-year-old brother raise an eyebrow. (I liked Method Man's "Everybody in Stank Butt Jeans" video spoof...) Aesthetically- in regard to lighting, choice of music, "composition" if that term's applicable to filmed visuals, models- they're impeccable, it's the culture or lack thereof behind them that should make our stomachs turn.
