Tradition meets Mercedes luxury with new PUBLICIS Groupe and Two AM Music Global film
When watching this film, you can’t help but gravitate towards the interplay between symbols of cultural heritage interwoven with the dazzle of modernity. With visuals that so expertly capture the most nuanced moments of human connection, the soundscape too demands a resonance to match, a task deeply set in mood management and precise timing.
To kick things off, Two AM Music Global focused on sonic signposts that ground the soundscape in traditionality, while simultaneously forming a journey where elements blend together in an abstract and pointedly modern way.
“How often do you get to hear traditional soundscapes melt into a driving and inspiring electro?” asks Two AM’s Oliver Stutz.
“Did you catch how the strum of the harp strings matched the neon strings of the stadium? Or the drum when the Mahjong tile hits the table? Each shot lent a new sonic opportunity, helping the score weave a journey of nostalgic longing, playful anticipation, and ultimately, to the nature of the festive season – that is ecstatic celebration,” explains Stutz.
