DeepMix, a unique, award-winning music design company based in Hollywood that specializes in the melding of the music and advertising industries, has revealed its upcoming and most recent projects. The announcement was made today by Dave Curtin, co-founder, DeepMix.

On behalf of client Carol H. Williams Advertising, DeepMix has recorded a remix of the legendary hit song ‘Love Train’ by The O’sJays, for a new, upcoming, 30-second Coors Light spot entitled ‘Block Party.’ DJ Lethal performed the ‘Love Train’ re-mix. Lethal is best known for his work as a scratch master DJ for House of Pain and Limp Bizkit.

In ‘Block Party,’ an inner city neighborhood is sweltering in the summer heat, until an enterprising young man plugs his iPod into a boombox. The remixed version of ‘Love Train’ comes blasting through, and suddenly, the Coors Light ‘Silver Bullet’ train, which had earlier appeared on a billboard, races through the street. Everyone in sight starts to dance, and drinks a cold Coors Light beer, as we read the end slogan: ‘Taste the Cold.’

Recently working with artist Junkie XL, Curtin and DeepMix recorded a remix of the classic T-Rex single ‘Bang A Gong,’ for a JCPenney spot that broke during the Academy Awards telecast. The 60-second spot, entitled ‘Serendipity,’ was for DeepMix client DDB/Chicago. Junkie XL originally gained a great degree of popularity for his well known, 2002 Elvis Presley re-mix, ‘A Little Less Conversation.’

The day following the Oscars telecast, New York Times advertising columnist Stuart Elliott cited ‘Serendipity’ as his pick for the ‘Oscars TV Commercial featuring the Best Adapted Song.’ In his column, he said, ‘This commercial, intended to demonstrate that JCPenney sells stylish men clothing, featured a remix of ?‚àö√ë‚àö‚â§Bang A Gong/Get it On,’s originally by the glam-metal band T. Rex.’

In ‘Serendipity,’ a series of very beautiful young women parade through town, wearing colorful and sexy clothes that were purchased at JCPenney. As they walk, they catch the eye of every young man around, many of whom appear to fall in love at first sight. The tagline reads: ‘You’sve Got It Inside’ and then ‘It All Inside: JCPenney.’

Curtin also announced that ntitled ‘Ipanema 5-0,’ by Ruisort. The other spot, entitled ‘Sweeter,’ is an entirely DeepMix has recently supplied music to two newly debuted, 15-second TV spots, both for Wal-Mart, working with GSD&M. The spots were both created under Wal-Mart slogan ‘Look Beyond the Basics.’ One of the spots, entitled ‘Hotter,’ included a licensed tune from DeepMix eoriginal track which was produced by DJ Lethal.

In ‘Hotter,’ a woman who entered a Wal-Mart store to purchase chips and salsa, sits on her outdoor patio/fire-pit furniture, which she also obviously bought while there. In the spot ‘Sweeter Lethal,’ a family sits on their living room couch, enjoying Hershey candy bars, and watching a large screen plasma TV set, both of which were purchased at Wal-Mart.
