The cynical (and perhaps sensible) part of my personality believes music in adverts to be little more than a marketing ploy intended to endear the viewer to the product featured. Nonetheless, those annoying bits in between television programs has included some great music of late, whose quality (in the UK at least) has indeed endeared me to the products featured. Not that I could afford any of them. MP3: Jupiter One - Platform Moon (VW) DOWNLOAD MP3: Simone White - The Beep Beep Song (Audi) DOWNLOAD MP3: Vitalic - Trahison [...]
You may have never heard of this little band that could, but I can almost guarantee that you have heard one their songs. Or should I say one of Mitch Davis' songs. You see, this little gem called Perfect Timing (This Morning) is the sound in the utterly ubiquitous iPhone commercials. So all of you out there who were asking {and emailing me} about what song was used in those commercials, this is it. It hails from the debut album of Orba Squara, Sunshyness ( iTunes ), and is actually a very difficult album to find [...]
Merry Xmas from Orba Squara , those guys whose song "Perfect Timing" was featured in that iPhone commercial . Blue Christmas - Orba Squara Perfect Timing (This Morning) - Orba Squara Music MP3 music
You'll know this one if you spend any time whatsoever in the company of a television. I won't spoil it by telling you where it is employed suffice as to say it is an entirely perfect jingle that straddles a wobbly line between annoying and catchy. In fact the Orba Squara roadshow has been used to maximum effect on a number of different adverts, which must have come as a nice surprise for Mitch

Orba Squara is Mitch Davis and Sunshyness is his debut. The sound is very much like the faerie boy falsettos of Sufjan Stevens and Iron & Wine, mixed with elements of Devandra Banhart's freak folk... **Click on the link to read the full post, download mp3s, and comment.**
It's been several months since we've done a Forkast update. There are two main reasons for this. The first is, you know, who cares anyway? You have plenty of stuff to listen to without this. The second reason is that...
Perfect Timing This Morning Download Gravel Download You've probably heard the name Orba Squara by now, but if not, you've definitely heard "Perfect Timing This Morning" on that ubiquitous iPhone commercial. Davis has received more than a little attention – mentioned everywhere from NPR to Pitchfork, but when I found out how Davis did all this, I couldn't pass up a chance to find out more. Davis ' licensing deal with Apple is nothing notable, but the fact that [...]

New York's Orba Squara are one of those bands whose music you probably know but whose name you don't. The nine television commercials that launched the Apple iPhone all featured one of their songs; the delicate, acoustic intro to their song "Perfect Timing (This Morning)." Mitch Davis is the singer and songwriter behind Orba Squara and the album from which the song comes from - Sunshyness - is

78s.ch präsentiert ab heute jeden Morgen (ausser Sa und So) ab 06:00 das mp3 des Tages "to go" wie der Engländer sagt, oder "à emporter" wie der Franzose zu sagen beliebt. Den Auftakt macht Orba Squara , die in den USA zurzeit grad am Durchstarten sind, weil sie für die Hintergrundmusik zum iPhone-Werbespot besorgt sind. Und wo das hinführen kann, wissen wir ja... José Gonzales, Dandy Warholes ... you name it. Orba Squara - The Perfect Timing This Morning Bedienungsanleitung: *präsentiert [...]
DOWNLOAD: Orba Squara - Perfect Timing This Morning (MP3) Not quite famous, but getting there - Mitch Davis ' band Orba Squara is now best known for the song "Perfect Timing This Morning". That's because it appears in an iPhone commercial -- well, some of it.... "I wasn't allowed to tell anybody it was happening," Davis tells Billboard.com of the period prior to the commercial's debut. "I didn't even know for sure that the song really was going to be featured until I [...]
I heard of this New York based outfit as the unsigned band (actually a one man band) whose song, "Perfect Timing (this morning)", was on the iPhone commercial, a commercial that I had never seen (I don't watch a lot of TV), but after seeing the spot on Youtube, I don't think the song was prominent enough to have caught my ear in the first place (the ad ends before the vocal begins). That's not a putdown of the song itself, far from it, Orba Squara, or Mitch Davis, the man behind the name, has a lot of personality in [...]
Yesterday we got a 50% peek at the first single from Jimmy Eat World's first record in three years. (Later we learned you could stream the whole thing here .) Today the JEW news revolves around the forthcoming LP's album art which, if we're not mistaken, doesn't bear much relationship to its title Chase This Light . Probably just aren't smart enough to get those crazy globe munchers. Check it...
Der Regen prasselt gegen die Scheibe, das Thermometer läutet den Herbst ein und jeder der kann, bleibt zu Hause im Bett und zieht die Decke hoch. Heute ist Akustiktag. Matt Nathanson hat seit 1993 bereits neun Alben veröffentlicht. Komplett an mir vorbei bisher. Das neuste, Some Mad Hope , beinhaltet u.a. den Song Detroit Waves , welchen es bei spin.com in einer exklusiven, schon recht emotional zu nennenden Akustikversion gibt. Matt Nathanson - [...]
New York, NY I'll continue the winter theme with "Sky Cloud Winter Breeze" from Orba Squara . Sunshyness is the name of the full-length and it's simply amazing - full of strings and bells and all the things I love. Definitely check this out if you're a fan of Sufjan Stevens.
