Re: The wub | |
Posted By: JDQuackers | Date: 10/1/12 8:00 a.m. |
In Response To: The wub (Archilen) : Is it that there's a zealous dubstep fan on the 343i team with nothing better : to do than spending their days making wub-wub remixes of Halo 4's : soundtrack, and the rest of the team doesn't want to hurt this person's : feelings so they have to put them somewhere? Or is it that 343i wants to : appeal to the fringe group that genuinely likes dubstep? I don't think that's it at all. Many advertisements these days are using sounds that are similar to dub step/EDM; however it's not because suddenly all of these marketing companies are staffed with dub step fans. The real observation that is "clear" from the wide-spread use of the WUB is that it is the current trend in marketing, which has been proven to be effective with the coveted demographic that video games and action movies target. Additionally, 343i has teamed up with a few EDM artists to create the Halo 4 Remix album and it makes sense to start trying to promote that by using samples of those tracks in their advertisements, especially because it seems like it would be easier to pare-down some wub wub into a 30/60 second advert than an orchestrated video game track. IMO, anyway. You seem to have your own statistics that I'm not privy to.
