Yeah, I seen that ad on Sunday night and then spent the rest of the week taping all the commercial breaks to get it on tape :) On Thursday night it was shown during Millennium on Channel 7 so I now have it on tape =)

this is why i really respect BoC -- their commitment to soundtracking commercials for cars that are aimed for well-off businessmen and status-driven office workers -- your average IDM fan in fact! great news

In that case rdj must be committed to making music that will keep kids off drugs and instead investing in the bank of america and buying perelli tires then, right?
It's just an advertisment, it's not like they're making music for the soul purpose of being in commercials, but they have to make money somehow you know

The BBC used "Tha" to advertise the Commonwealth games trials. Hopefully they'll keep the Aphex theme going in the games themselves. "Come on you Slags" as background music to the ladies marathon springs to mind, or maybe not.

yes, Raoul Duke, you're right -- the days of having principles are long gone. Why have integrity when you can have money? I for one look forward to the day I am assimilated into society as a good citizen driving a BMW (which i bought because BoC really bumped up their credibility), depositing my well-earned bucks into the Bank Of America (who really care about people)

TV adverts are like the graveyard of my respect for the so-called alternative comedians . The walk-of shame for one-time mavericks who once said they'd never sell out.... Paul "we have the right phones 4U" Merton.
Billy "Don't live a little ; live a LOTTO!" Connolly. Thats the working mans spirit eh Billy ? Pin your hard-earned crust on the desperate possibility of solving your woes and debts ; filling the pockets of fat-arsed cowboys who run the "Not for profit" lottery for £500,000 p/a personal .
But sure, Billy has to earn his next sportscar somehow.

Well I'll be, heh. hello. Just noticed the location thingy in the message titles. Shows how much I pay attention... :)
I took a look at the CC site and couldn't find a reference for the BMW ad, is it mentioned anywhere else?
