Plone song in a Reese's Commmercial



I saw this on TV yesterday. I hadn't heard the song in years, but recognized it after a second.

  1. Boy, Plone really stalled out, didn't they? I remember listening to them and BOC back to back on like the 1998 iteration of the Warp site, on dialup, 20 minute load times just for short clips, and thinking, "OK, these guys [Plone] are doing like a 60's thing, and these guys [BOC] are doing more of a 70's thing..." I hadn't fully embraced the IDM genre marker, and I was struggling to articulate what made the techno that I liked different from the Chemical Brothers and Keoki and shit... Anyway, Plone really ended up as one of those fascinating dead-ends in the Warp catalog, like Brothomstates, something that coulda taken off if they pushed it a third as hard as they kept trying to push Beans... Well, way to sell some Reese's, I guess.

  2. I always thought this was the only good Plone song.

  3. There were probably two tracks on the album that I habitually skipped to... Not my favorite stuff by a longshot, but they had an interesting style, and I wonder what they'd be like now had they grown into it some more.
