I know I’m late to the party on this one but…
Check out the latest ad for Britain’s Got Talent.
Look familiar? That’s because it is.
Check out this video, from Belgium, released in April of 2012.
It’s just embarrassing.
This baby has been hidden away for 12 years.
A friend of mine just dropped these two mixes just onto Soundcloud. Recorded at the Concord in Brighton back in August 2001, this an utter find. To quote:
A rare DJ set by The Avalanches, recreating their popular album Since I Left You but with many additions.
Clearly I don’t own the rights to either this mix or the original music, but it’s been over 10 years since I was given these mp3s as a treat by the sound team at one of their live performances, and thought it time to share this awesome mix and to remind you all of The Avalanches.
Put this in your ears.

Got a question about this recording? Ask Josh.
Have a great Monday y’all.

Any ideas? Anyone?
No, I’m not sure either. In the meantime, I’ll just leave this here:
Example: a Twitter user is paid by a brand owner or marketing practitioner specifically to use Twitter to promote a brand, product or service. The brand owner or marketing practitioner should ensure that the Twitter user discloses the payment by including #ad within their tweet. As tweets are limited to 140 characters, the use of the #ad hashtag allows maximum room for the message itself, but also makes clear to consumers that the message has been paid for.

Cheers.

I wonder what the ASA will make of it.
Update: Sad times.
