"We are honored to be selected by Taschen and included in their ICONSseries again, but this compilation is particularly close to our heartsbecause of our dedication to creating innovative, artistic and intimatesites for popular musicians," said Fahrenheit creative director Dylan Tran. "What's especially humbling is that this is a book designers buy to seewhat other designers are doing in the field and it's great to have our workamong them. ". Music sites are often pretty standard in their layout and stylisticapproaches with a set navigational scheme. Fahrenheit's methodology tobranding music sites, however, is not to just choose a design style and gofor it, but to approach the marketing and positioning of an artist like anyother product or company. "We really try to understand the artist we work with by listening to theirmusic and carefully considering their audience as we come up with creativeconcepts that speak directly to their listeners while also being alignedwith the artist's own story and personality," said Bob Weitz. "As the webbecomes more and more crowded, being distinct will become more important. If you want to stand out from the crowd, you need great design and greatproduction values. ". Fahrenheit has also worked on projects for artists such as The RollingStones, Joss Stone, Korn, Ben Harper, KT Tunstall and the main VirginRecords site, delivering distinctive high quality designs that stand out inthe crowded web. Fahrenheit Studio is a Los Angeles-based new media design firm founded in1995 by the creative team of Robert Weitz and Dylan Tran.

ringtone virgin - Jakazid Featuring Barry Scott 'Cillit Bang' (ringtone virgin)
Right put the kettle on, make a cup of tea and brace yourself -- this might take a while to sink in. Nukleuz Records are going for Christmas No.1 with a viral video sensation that parodies a famous cleaning product and was the brainchild of a (then) 16-year-old kid messing around in his bedroom... made that tea yet? I think you should.

'Cillit Bang' is one of those truly unique results of 21st century technology and youthful creativity. A viral video sampled from a cult TV advert for cleaning products branded 'Cillit Bang' infused with some classic choice edits against a pounding hardcore dance track. Then it was uploaded to one of the many sites that allow users to post videos (not YouTube but Luckykazoo) and low and behold the whole online world was able to watch the totally humorous and crazy result. It was by far the most popular video on Luckykazoo logging up over 2 million views! Since then 14 separate people copied it and uploaded it to YouTube (now taken down due to copyright infringement) It's enjoyed Radio 1 support from Chris Moyles and Scott Mills, Virgin Radio support from Christian O'Connell, been featured in The Guardian and The Sun Online as well as having TV support from The Gadget Show and requests for use by MTV and many more... and this is only the start!

So why on earth would a record company sign Jakazid and clear the rights of the visuals & audio from the world's largest producer of household cleaning products? Well why did the electric guitar make Rock 'n' Roll? Well here's the answer -- This is the technology of now like the electric guitar was of the 1950's and the Sampler in the 80's. This is what the youth get excited about in their bedrooms, and anyway, ask anyone in the street who Barry Scott is and you'll probably get the reply...

"Hi... I'm Barry Scott!! Look what it does to a Penny!"

You type in Barry Scott to Google and it's absurd. There are a number of spoof Barry Scott MySpace profiles where Barry Scott is frequently seen as "a legend". You can also join in the hunt to find out... WHO IS BARRY SCOTT!

You ask Chris Moyles or Christian O'Connel about Barry Scott. At the recent V Festival one festival-goer was interviewed on Radio 1 and was asked what famous people they had seen, answer -- you guessed it -- Barry Scott.

The final part of the musical jigsaw of this signing is the music. It's UK Hardcore. A sound that is huge with the less affected clubbing youth and a sound that Nukleuz Records has had much success with. If you still have no clue there have been well over half a million Hardcore albums sold in the UK in the past 18 months!!!

Nukleuz cares not one bit if this fits in any way the traditional parameters of a hit single. For starters it's clearly not a radio record, for second it is one and a half minutes long, and third it has nothing like a traditional artist. It's not even big in Ibiza or any other such nonsense because it's hugely popular and refreshingly different. Nukleuz intends making it available as CD single, music & video downloads, on mobile phones as vidtones, as ringtones and even as a 12" vinyl!! There is complete belief that this will be huge ... even Christmas No1.

So there you have it. An illegal viral video made legal by the collaboration of an open minded record company, home cleaning products manufacturer, and a young man crazy and creative enough to put it all together.

With a whole host of mixes to cover Hardcore, Hard Dance, Trance and even electro house (it needs to be heard to be believed!) 'Cillit Bang' is going to be big business this Christmas and Nukleuz are fairly confident they can reach No.1.

Viral videos are a part of our everyday life and JAKAZiD's Cillit Bang must be about the biggest ever!
