VA - Switched On (The Cool Sound Of TV Advertising)

Switched On (The Cool Sound Of TV Advertising)

Like the Essential soundtracks album I picked this up after collecting a pile of vouchers from some product that I can't actually remember?
So glad I did as this is a brilliant collection of songs.
I can't remember how many times I've only discovered bands just because one of their tracks was used in an advert and it's stuck in my head.
Not sure if it really works on an advertising level as I often can't think what the product was and it's only through compilations like this that I find the music, this is from around 2001.
