I can't say it's been a great week at work, again.  A small team, working under extreme pressure to meet very ambitious targets, and under these circumstances mistakes and errors of judgement are bound to happen.  

When it's a good team - and this one is - you make sure that when things do go wrong they're the minor things, not business critical ones.  That's how this week has been.  Making progress towards the hedkandi.com relaunch in the first week of June but also having to fit in a new Global Underground store, add clothing to the Ministry of Sound site and introduce membership functionality.  

It didn't all go smoothly, but we achieved all three things this week.  Now I hope we can move into next week in a positive frame of mind and have a good week on Hed Kandi.

We did have one piece of good cheer on Friday.  Ministry of Sound has released the new Chilled II album - with a cool chill pill offer on the site - and there's an accompanying TV ad.

The ad - beautifully directed, with the high production values you'd expect - is here.

The eCommerce team responded with this in-house remake.

You be the judge - which do you prefer?

I go with the proper one of course I LOVE those CGI ads when they are done right, and that one obviously is.
