Author Topic: This loving "cute music" is in commercials and videos everywhere  (Read 1942 times)

There's a certain kind of music I've noticed for a while now appears loving everywhere.  It's all over commercials and web videos and it has two main components:

  • 1.  Ukulele or acoustic guitar strums playing chords.
  • 2.  Tuned percussion instrument (glockenspiel, xylophone, etc.) playing melody.

Together they play a cheery melody, sometimes accompanied by other elements such as simple percussion, whistling, or soft strings.  The result is an incredibly sickeningly sweet style of music I've grown to hate.  I probably wouldn't hate it so much if not for the fact that it is goddamn everywhere.  Sometimes it's mixed in so loud you can't actually hear the important stuff.  If I hear music like this in a video I stop watching.  I will not stand for it.

Linking an example would be a waste of time.  If you read the above description and live on Earth, you know exactly what I'm talking about.

There's no real point to this.  I just had to rant somewhere.

do you have any links to them?

Close, but not really.  This is actually kind of acceptable because it's fairly different from the cookie cutter bullstuff I hear everywhere.
