About the Work

Briefing:
YouTube, Vimeo, Instagram.
Music videos can be found everywhere.
Clicked by millions of people.
But non of these plays will bring you to the top of the charts.
Our task: to bring Universal’s artist CRO and his latest song on the top of the charts.

Idea:
We created an innovative music video that was exclusively released on Spotify thanks to a smart hack - and pushed CRO further up the charts with every single play.

Execution:
We used Spotify's new video canvas as a medium to replace static album covers.
We overcame the time limit by simply cutting our music video into pieces and releasing it as a playlist.
This way we could surprise people with a full music video. The first music video on Spotify.
