Ace of Spades

Heineken U.K. is bringing Kronenbourg 1664 back to the small screens with the first TV support for the premium lager brand since 2006 with the launch of "Slow the Pace", a new integrated advertising campaign which broke last week.

The first execution in the new campaign shows iconic rock band MOTÖRHEAD performing a slowed down version of their classic track "Ace of Spades" (available for free download here).

30 years to the month since it was first written, the track has been specially re-written by the band for a Kronenbourg 1664 campaign that will encompass TV, press and digital advertising, a short-film documentary and a social media activity.

Arkiv Vilmansa: Riding Curves

ARKIV VILMANSA

"Since his debut in 2005, Indonesian artist Arkiv Vilmansa has become a prominent name in the lowbrow art and designer toy cultures. His work has been featured in galleries in the U.S., Germany and Indonesia, and he has collaborated with artists and companies including Huck Gee, Disney Asia, Something.Ill, Pot Meets Pop, Adfunture, Plastic Culture and My Tummy Toys.
Vilmansa pegs childhood characters and his architecture background as significant influences on his art. “I like a few animals that have an aura of evil and (are) also funny,” he said, citing Mickey Mouse, pandas and killer whales as examples – all of which helped spawn Vilmansa’s iconic “Arkiv” character. But it all begins with that bold, curvy style, reminiscent of graffiti art.
“The marker is a weapon. As an architect I always start everything with the lines.”
