Howard Music sizzles for latest Wimpy TVC

MR SANDMAN RE-RECORD FOR WIMPY/METROPOLITAN REPUBLIC TVC

Metropolitan Republic asked Adam to go back to the future and retune the classic 50's track "Mr. Sandman" by the Chordettes. A 9-year-old star-in-the-making, Raphaela Nicolettis, opened the track and 14-year-old Georgia Harris carried the lyrics home. To up the tempo and add a quirky twist Adam used Nic Nicolaidis and Don Boroughs on backing vocals and some good old banjo played by "hot fingers" Ray Green. Jason Fialkov directed for Egg Films while Agency CD was Pete Khoury and copywriter was Rudolph Van Rensburg.

Other recent work worth mentioning again:

JAZZY HOUSE FOR MZANSI MAGIC

Adam was asked by Ogilvy JHB to remix the classic Ali Katt song, "Let the Good Times Roll", for local pay TV channel, Mzansi Magic. The "Van Tuka To The Future" theme mapped a cultural journey through time and the soundtrack was treated to echo the style of various high profile South African celebrities kicking it at a vibrant house party. The spot was directed by Mpho Twala from Velocity Afrika.

POWER OF VOICE FOR VICKS

Velocity Afrika commissioned Adam to compose an emotive orchestral piece that would enhance the "Power of Voice" theme and melodically melt into a pre-recorded vocal track for the latest Vicks TV commercial; "Speak Up Nigeria".

KICKING UP SCORES FOR MTN

Metropolitan Republic asked Adam to score (pun intended) MTN's 8 soccer tournament TVC. The brief called for an epic soundtrack akin to Carmina Burana's "O Fortuna" but with a sporty twist in the lyrics nick-named "Wafa Wafa" or "it's do or die". The spot was directed by Keith Rose from Velocity Films.
