#0043 – Commercial Interests

Play

DJ Scott: No, you’re not going to hear Pink Floyd’s Money or Industrial Disease by Dire Straits in this mix. The title stems from the appearance of these songs in recent television commercials. This playlist is actually pretty interesting even though advertisements can be really annoying. I’ve linked to the associated commercials on YouTube below if you’re interested.
