    Do any of you know what that piano and orchestral music is in the new Nike commercial? It's their new commercial where they intercut different sports connecting them with similar actions and framing. Does anyone have a clue what I'm talking about?

    Night, Night, Night. You guys gotta learn something as new admin. Tell the members which forum to put it in. Not look for it. :p

    Well, since you won't do your job you better go back as a member and let me be an admin. ;)

    ewingsquadron, try the music forum for this kinda stuff.

    Well i started the thread in question. But i will just tell you if you type in something like Nike Winter Olympic Commercial in Audiogalaxy you will find it. The problem is that it is straight off the TV so you hear the sound effects,ie, basketball dribbling etc. If you can find a regular version of it then please tell me.

    Also if anyone knows where i can d/l that commercial i would love to have it.


    EDIT: you can view the commercial here http://www.nikebiz.com/media/n_move.shtml#story


    The name of the song is 'Elias Music' and sound design was by Jeff Elmassian, Endless Noise.

    I got this info from some misc message board where a guy sent a letter to nike and they sent him this info. The song was made for the commercial and is not for resale so you probably can not find a "clean" version of it.

    I'm a hero :) ... I found the composer after a little searching:

    The composer is Jonathan Elias and apparently, he has done pieces for other TV broadcasts. But unfortunately, the song is NOT out on CD. The title of the song is: "Elias Music."



    You can "download" (more like watch a streaming video of it) off iFilm at: http://www.ifilm.com/ifilm/product/film_info/0,3699,2421425,00.html

    EDIT: Soothsayer got to it before I did. :)

    HA HA i got it first, i have only been looking for 2 days.

    If anyone find a clean version (just the song not background commercial stuff) then be sure to tell us all about it.

    That is one of the greatest commercials ever. Here is a link so you can download the commercial in QuickTime format (right-click and save). Unfortunately it's a really small size.

    Actually, you CAN buy the song if you've got a couple hundred (or thousand) bucks to spare. Licenses to production music aren't THAT expensive.

    That is indeed a cool commercial.

    You need a permit to jump off a bridge, is what the tiny print says.

    I'm not one to get all mushy about shoe commercials, but I really love that commercial. I first saw it during the Olympics, and found it to be quite emotionally stirring. Those visuals set to that music just gets to me. I'm disappointed that the song isn't available in a "clean" version. I thought it must be an original, because I have never heard it prior to that ad.

    Well the thing about the commercial is that is not just for shoes. It is for Nike in general. Everyone is wearing Nike apparel(sp?) and it just shows what kind of things you can do while wearing Nike and having the Nike attitude of Just do it.

    Wow! Thanks to all who replied. I now ripped off the song with the sound effects, and I guess that it will have to do for now, because the music is just that awesome! :D
