Commercial Breaks & Beats

Just saw a trailer on More4 with piano. It was trailing their True Stories stuff. It used The Cinematic Orchestra - To Build A Home. Hope that's the one.

Is it the original version by Labi Siffre?

There's a Neptunes track listed in the database for Nike - Stickman, although it's the football one. Maybe it's the same tune. Either way, it's somewhere to start.

The trailer I saw had Lionrock - Rude Boy Rock. Hope it's the one!

Scratch that, I now think it's Adiemus/Karl Jenkins - Cantilena (The Journey). Rain Dance wasn't the one I was thinking of. This is the one. It was on an advert for something, but I don't think it was a car, but it is ethnic, tribal, African-sounding and uplifting(ish). There's a soundclip here but ...

I'd guess Adiemus - Rain Dance. It's kind of uplifting and ethnic/tribal. I've been trying to fit the "lyrics" you provided, I'm not totally sure, but; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8zOWGX4-wv8 **EDIT** If that turns out to be right I expect uploaded video of your boyfriend prancing about to it. :w...

The piano roll is off 'Sinnerman' by Nina Simone, the house beat makes me think it's the Felix the Housecat remix off Verve Remixed 2.

Flipping around late-night telly a couple of weeks ago I found one of them channels that goes a bit weird at night, showing random oddness. Anyways amidst all this nonsense was a desert scene with this quality lo-fi alt country type tune playing. The lyrics were all about "dead flies", "blind spider...

Saw the trailer myself tonight It is Yma Sumac ("opera mambo" tho, it was always gonna be ), and the track is 'Gopher'. Make sure you get the track called 'Goomba Boomba' as well, cos that is proper quality.

There can't be that many well known opera mambo artists!

Yma Sumac?

I don't know if her stuff would be suitable to trail LA Confidential, but it's worth a stab.

If it's the same d&b one from a while back, it's Hedrex - Dreamboat 2. You can download a full MP3 thru the Specsavers site;

I saw a trailer for this last night, so it might not be the same. I don't know the specific track name, but it was definitely Sigur Ros. I could tell cos of the Icelandic squeaking vocals. It's probly off their album Takk, as that is a bit more commercial and has been rinsed for trailers and ads. Ho...

No, before that. Between her "singing", and Kelis.

Anyone know what's playing after she's done?
