We’ve been busy working on a handful of creative media for some big fourth quarter music releases with our friends at Universal Records. Here is a couple recently launched:
Shiny Toy Guns – Widget - Universal Motown Republic Group (umusic.com)
We created a sharable widget for Shiny Toy Guns’ upcoming release, Season of Poison. The widget features a local weather module with custom artwork and two countdown clocks – one counting down to the release of the album with the other counting down to the next song preview exclusively released through the widget. A different streaming song was featured each week for 4 weeks leading up to album release. Widgetbox hosted the widget to make all share tools available for fan and online street teamers to use. Grab the widget for your blog or social network page here.
Kaiser Chiefs – Flash Video Game - Universal Motown Republic Group (umusic.com)
Our Kaiser Chiefs’ hangman inspired flash game was used as the primary focus of the band’s micro site (offwiththeirheadsonline.com) for their newest release, Off With Their Heads. The game features streaming audio of the first single, “Never Miss A Beat”, a series of trivia questions chosen by the band as well as share features and links the band’s online properties. A player can unlock an exclusive MP3 after getting all of the questions correct. Play the game here.
The Syndicate is stoked to have the privilege of working with Comedy Central to help promote the new Mitch Hedberg record Do You Believe In Gosh? For the campaign we developed an E-Card with streaming audio as well as a facebook application which allows fans to have randomly selected jokes from Hedberg appear on their profile. Gosh will be released on Comedy Central Records on September 9th.
We recently designed an E-Card and contest page for the mighty CLUTCH to work alongside our street and online marketing campaigns. Make sure to check out their new live CD and DVD, Full Fathom Five which is available now.
