If you caught the Super Bowl on Sunday you probably noticed all of the great Hyundai spots scattered throughout the big game. Endless Noise was happy to collaborate with the team at Innocean and lend our original music and sound design to three of those spots.

Here they are, in order of appearance:

Hyundai Elantra “Victory Lap”

Endless Noise composed/arranged a version of John Philips Sousa’s “The Stars and Stripes Forever” on nylon string guitar and handled sound design.

Welcome to “The Bark Side”

admin — Thu, 19 Jan 2012 07:07:38 +0000

The Super Bowl, Volkswagen, Star Wars, Endless Noise…Sound familiar? The old gang is back together after the success of last year’s “The Force” with a new spot called “The Bark Side” featuring 11 very cute dogs barking “The Imperial March” and one very ridiculous AT-AT. All of the crew at Endless Noise were extremely excited about working on this one with our friends at Deutsch LA. We acted as “Barkestrators” composing and arranging this canine chorus. With Arf Vader leading the pack we may all be headed for The Bark Side…

Hyundai Sonata Hybrid “One Less Battery”

If you’re a football fan (or have been watching TV at all lately) you’ve probably come across our latest spot for the Hyundai Sonata Hybrid called “One Less Battery.” Endless Noise composed the original score as well as creating the sound design track which was really essential to the commercial’s concept. We got to spend a day on set with Lance Accord capturing all of the funny and frustrating sounds you hear. The commercial may stir up bad memories of your own smoke alarm woes, but we think it’s healthy to laugh about it. Enjoy!

Filmed in the creative mecca of Berlin, Germany and accompanied by Endless Noise’s original music, “Self Portrait” depicts the creative process of an artist who uses her smartphone as a tool to inspire her project before unveiling it to the public. Beautifully shot by Ellen Kuras – see HTC Radar “Self Portrait” for yourself below.

Volkswagen Passat “Rocket Man”

admin — Thu, 29 Sep 2011 07:28:14 +0000

We’ve all misheard or made up our own lyrics before…ya know like, “Hot Blooded! Chicken of the Sea…” For this Volkswagen ad we took on Elton John’s classic “Rocket Man” where ridiculous lyric flubs like “Burning up the room with cheap cologne” are featured until the Passat’s crystal clear Fender premium audio sets us straight. The folks at Deutsch brought us on to help arrange how the musical segments would play out and also to compose a smooth jazz version of “Rocket Man” for the elevator scene.

For the Volkswagen Super Bowl commercial “The Force” for the 2012 Passat, Endless Noise was brought on by the fine folks at Deutsch LA to handle the musical arrangement/editorial and sound design. Working with such iconic images and John Williams’ score, we were sure it would be a hit and it has certainly proven to be just that. Check it out below and on game day during the 2nd quarter.

EN Teams with McKinney for Urban Ministries

admin — Thu, 11 Jun 2009 22:51:02 +0000

Last month, Endless Noise had the pleasure of working with our friends from McKinney on a PSA for Urban Ministries of Durham (UMD) – a community-based organization that provides resources and services to people in need in the Durham area. McKinney’s campaign to raise homelessness awareness crosses many mediums including print, online and television where Endless Noise was able to lend a hand. The song chosen for the commercial was “The Hill,” composed by Market Irglova from the film “Once.” Irglova granted UMD permission to use the song and it was Endless Noise’s job to re-record and arrange the song to fit the spot, replacing the vocals with a cello (played by our good friend David Low).

The two :30 spots, directed by Johnnie Semerad, are titled “Veteran” and “Family” and were filmed locally in Durham. The commercials use stop-motion animation to depict the bustling streets of Durham. This footage acts as a stark contrast to the tiny motionless figures that the camera zooms in on over the course of the spot which are eventually recognized as a homeless man (“Veteran) or a homeless mother and child (“Family).

We are thrilled that the guys over at McKinney thought to get us involved for such a worthwhile cause and couldn’t be more pleased with the final spot.
