Are Jingles Better Than Sonic Logos
Tuesday Jan 03, 2023
Tuesday Jan 03, 2023
What’s the difference between a jingle and a sonic logo? Is one better than the other? We’ll dig into that in this episode of the Sound In Marketing Podcast.
This episode was a reboot of an article I wrote back in 2019.
Thank you to Audio Hero for all those fun filler sound effects. To Meow Mix, Kit Kat, Volkswagen, Tostitos, and Pringles for some excellent examples, and to Lucas/McFaul agency, Michael Levine, Trio, Made Music, and Massive Music for actually creating these iconic songs and sounds. Throughout this episode, I’ve also sprinkled some of my own examples in there. If you can spot them let me know.

What Does A Black T-Shirt Sound Like
Tuesday Dec 20, 2022
Tuesday Dec 20, 2022
What does a black T-shirt sound like? Or should it sound like anything at all? This episode brought up so many interesting questions with no right or wrong answers.
This episode was a re-boot from an article with the same name that I wrote back in 2020.
Thanks to Charles Balderston and Jerremy Laesser for their great conversation and thought provoking insights. Thank you also to Free Clip sounds for the sprinkling of flavor here and there.
The experimental sound of a black t-shirt and other “sound effects” was pieced together by Dreamr Productions.

The Sound Of Sadness
Tuesday Dec 13, 2022
Tuesday Dec 13, 2022
What does sadness sound like? Could limiting our sad music intake save us from depression?
This episode was a re-boot from an article with the same name that I wrote back in 2021.
Thanks to Artlist’s library of killer musicians for Beach Day by Max Hixon (my summertime example) and Catnip Addict by Bunker Buster (my lowkey summertime example). I also snuck my own tracks in there. Anthem as my happy music example and Heartbreak as my devastatingly depressing example. Oh and those chords progressing from sad to happy, that was me too.

We dig deep into cross-cultural exploitation and global pride. Thank you again to my guest Sgt. Major Denver Dill from Westpoint Academy for some powerful examples of how music unites us in good times and in bad.
To listen/watch the examples listed in this episode, here are some links:
Andriy Khlyvnyuk, lead singer of the Ukrainian band Boombox ended his World Tour early to fight for his country. When the streets were bare in Kiev, he took to Instagram and recorded himself singing the Ukrainian folk song The Red Viburnum in the Meadow in the empty streets of Kiev.
This was the result.
