In early 2009, Audio Perception was asked by
Jonathan Parks, the VP/Music Supervisor for the Beyond Music Library, to write three tropical island type songs. He asked that they have a steel drum type sound and a "vacation on the beach" like feel. David Knauer got together with award winning producer Carl McGregor at his private studio, and the results were three tracks named "
Steel Buns," "
Pastafarian" and "
Bumboclot" (Click on a song name to here it). David recorded and mixed the tracks with Carl playing all the instruments. Steel Buns was used in a national Capital One commercial this month and was also placed in a Travelocity commercial back in the summer of 2009. You can view either commercial by clicking on a video. Audio Perception has a variety of other songs in the
Beyond library that can be heard by clicking on our "
Media" page in the main menu.
