Commercial music?

[Dionysos]

Anyone have suggestions on how to find out what song is in certain commercials? There's a ton of interesting downtempo tunes in commercials, but I'm having a hard time tracking the names down online.

Go to the company's corporate website and get in touch with their PR department. Or start a thread on Discogs. I had Frankie Bones answer a question on there for me.

Have you checked the commercial music district downtown?

any commercial in particular?

could be a library cut, could be custom, could be a sync license of an artist/group.

also you can find out what creative agency holds the account for said company and they might tell you.

What commercial is it?

If you can find the commercial on youtube, there is usually a discussion thread below it. More than likely someone else wondered the same thing and asked. I was interested in a track from an urge commercial once, went to youtube and found the answer in the thread with the video.
