J20 proudly presents Soft Cell's Tainted Love remixed by Rathergood.com for their latest advert. This is absolutely fantastic, one of the best remakes of Tainted Love I have ever heard or seen. The gentleman playing the balalaika is Bibs Ekkel, and this new band, apparently was formed just for the J20 spot is "Zouk Bizarre".
from the press release:In Communist East Germany during the Cold War, the authorities decreed a Great Talent Contest! Pop Stasi was born! Here is Tainted Love, as it was performed in that glorious setting.
We made this for J2O because they've got a mixed up session going on. Agency: Shine Communications Agency creative director – Scott Williams Executive Creative Director: Joel Veitch – Rathergood.com Production company: Rathergood.com, London
