The Flash wizards over at Forsman & Bodenfors behind the beloved Volvo campaigns have done it again. This time they've created one of the most seamless implementations of video in Flash that I've ever seen. Beautiful music, too.
My god, this is good!!!

The song: Peking Laundry - Don't Turn Away
Peking Laundry = Martin Sköld (Kent) & Martin Landquist (Nåid)

Not that much of a site. Just the tv commercials put together in a flash movie. The commercials are great and the music made by the swedish band Kent's bass player sure makes the simple "site" moody. I don't think the song is available for purcase yet, but i sure hope it will be in the future.

Sorry just have to say one thing.
It would be nice if people stopped using a script to pop up their site in a full screen window. What's worse is that this window can not be sized down. This is a real pain for people with multiple monitor displays.

Wow this is amazing, love the use of flash and the photos and, well about everything, the footage in the commercials is amazing aswell, and yes the song is wonderful.

Site loads very slowly. Thumbnail videos could have been animated GIFs with the same effect, and smaller file size. Not much to the site other than the commercials. Rather boring actually...and not much of an experience at all. Sure it has a great song...but that's about all it has.

I have checked out the site & I was hugely impressed, I just like the way he played with the images simple and flat, dig the song hope to hear it soon.

This site is simply amazing, so simple yet conceptually bloody brilliant. Well done guys. Great emotive communication. Emotion is such an integral part of a pair of jeans, we all love our favorite pair and everyone from all walks of life own a pair. These designers recognised this and site nails what its all about. No for those comments about pop up windows and the supposed use of Gifs instead of video... Learn what real design is about!! NFI
