Ive just noticed that Ford are using Shake Break Bounce as their soundtrack for their new advert and Tinsel Town (clubbing drama on rapture TV) have Out of Control for theirs. Is there any adverts, commercials, TV programs etc. that use the chemical brothers for promoting their products?

:-?

Hey gordonhibs, check this out!

Also read through the thread, it's quite interesting. The song used in the ad was made especially for the commercial.



In the US, Galvanize was used for a Budweiser commercial. Nissan has also used Hoops and *I think* Leave Home (but my memory's hazy on that one)



The Chems also had Elektrobank used in a Perelli ad. I don't have a link to it, but I've seen it floating around the net.



I'm not sure about other ads in the UK and beyond, I'm sure someone else here might know. Hope it helps!

It was Galaxy Bounce... better use than for Tomb Raider I'd say

Ah, I think you're right Biff! And Galaxy Bounce was also used for another one, I recall it being for Sirius Satellite radio, but this was about 3 or 4 years ago... It was computer animation of little bits of dust bouncing around the inside of a speaker.

George W Bush used "It Doesn't Matter" in his 2004 ad titled "That Constitution Thingy".
