Korg USA recently came to our house and asked us to design a national print ad campaign for their new electronic drum, The Wavedrum. After pulling in Awards at NAMM for “Best In Show” and 2 prestigious 2010 Musikmesse International Press Awards, this is one HOT product.

That made it easy for us to utilize world class drummers having fun with the Wavedrum.  Musicians used descriptive words like “expression”, “feel”, “playability” and “sensitivity” to describe the Wavedrum, so the word cloud concept fit perfectly.

If you like banging out some rhythms even if it’s on pots and pans, you must try this – it’s totally addicting; a lot like designing for one of our favorite clients!
