Apple iPod/iPad as an audio brand

There’s no doubt that Apple and it’s advertising gurus at TBWA Chiat Day have created a lasting sonic impression by choosing songs of a certain sound palette, rhythm and feel in their last few years of advertising iTunes and iPod.

Their sonic / audio branding brief probably reads something like this:

  • Unknown as of yet thereby fresh
  • Quirky yet familiar and not too strange
  • Simple – no fancy harmonies or chord progressions
  • Singable or hummable – sticks in your ear
  • Unexpected instrument palette – notice the banjo in Feist’s 1234 or the toy piano in Miss Li’s Bourgeois Shangri-La.
  • Acoustic organic sounding elements blended with electronic
  • Rhythmic and bouncy
  • Warm and intimate
  • Positive
  • Shiny and bright
  • Usually in a major key
  • Vocals can be male or female or instrumental
  • Genre – electronic, pop, acoustic, alternative – most probably not jazz or classical
