"How Awesome is That????"

Post by Gregg Juke » Sat Mar 10, 2012 7:51 pm

I wonder who wrote the copy for this ridiculously presumptious software ad.
Talent not included. (But who needs it? Certainly not you, if you just buy this software right now!)...

Crucial dead giveaway this is stupid? DAW is pronounced "daw," not "dee ay double u."

The lady sounds ridiculous dropping street slang. The only time she sounded authentic was when she said "yeah, whatever."

"This is 2012 I mean gimme a break!" :roll: I like how they emphasis a few time how learning about music is nonsense.

Yes, "Who needs all of that theory and technical gobledeegook, when you can get Grammy's simply by using this software. As long as you turn-in Wave files, not laughable Mp3's!"

Priceless.

I've got an idea, I'm going to make a product, write a ridiculous/presumptuous script, and use a dated drawing style to talk about it...no, I don't need to demo it at all, just say bangers and beats a lot...

Things like this totally perplex me. I mean obviously whoever wrote that knew a hell of a lot about music, the biz, computers, audio, beats, slang, etc., etc. But not quite enough to create a bunch of sentences that weren't, in total, almost completely semantically null.

Or knew enough but didn't care as their intended audience wouldn't know the difference.

The actual web site is pretty funny also:
http://drdrum.com/

I find it interesting that the main message is "Dr Drum worked for me!", but there's no mention of who this person is who is now supposedly winning Grammys and having ladies go sterile at the sight of him because of Dr Drum.

But what happens if every song that I make is already a banger?
