This is Sound of the Subu… ‘Stormhoek’.
A little while back our inbox here at Orbital Wines received the following; ‘The Stormhoek Song’ and we blogged about it at the time. Now with the miracle of a little flash embedding you can listen to it on the site.
[audio:The%20Stormhoek%20Song.mp3]Rob Lane, aka Weekend Wino, hasn’t even had his Stormhoek dinner yet, but couldn’t resist trying some. He cracked open a bottle of Pinotage and it was, apparently, a hit. He loved the wine so much, he wrote a song about it! Genius.
We’re thinking it will become our official anthem. We may even try to release it. What do you think Rob, can you hear the Ka- Ching of the royalties… ?

sounds great – but needs more / longer of a climax point – it sounds like a jingle if it doesn’t have a climax. There’s a lot of repetition, for such a short song so it can afford to lose some of that and replace it with the central climax.

I tend to agree with Ulla to a point. I think it is absolutely brilliant – imagine your customers like your wines so much that they make a “song and dance” about it; I mean: who wouldn’t want that?
After having listened, I believe the song should be shortened slightly – could very well be the song that you play when someone phones the office and is being put on hold. Luckily for you, it has a Caribean feel to it and has the kind of lyrics that sticks in your memory – immediately!
Well Done!
