Consul Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 Why does every single shitfork article on RDJ have "Watch Windowlicker here" embedded at the bottom? Maybe because it's the most popular track by him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beerwolf Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 I really wouldn't worry about it. Having said that I do know what you mean. It's like the 'Soundgarden Black Hole Sun Syndrome'. They wrote loads of other better tunes but the image of the band is forever hacked onto that fucking song (which ironically I've never liked from the start) . Even when they appeared on Sonic Highways it was the same deal Black hole sun, black hole sun won't you come...Does my fucking head in. It's a pop hit I guess. And that's all. Still annoying though.

Hugh Mughnus Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 It could be related to your browser actually if you're using google chrome, doesn't it store information and target you with ads and content related to recent searches etc? I'm on pitchfork and none of the rdj articles are linking me to windowlicker at the bottom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hugh Mughnus Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 lol. huge if true It's definitely true. 100%. It's called contextual targeting advertising. You need an extension to chrome to block this. I started looking at booking my trip to vietnam and now the company I was looking at (fnez) has ads on most pages I visit. And it's only a small calgary based travel company. http://www.google.ca/ads/displaynetwork/find-your-audience/contextual-targeting.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They embed Windowlicker in most articles about AFX, such as in this one: http://pitchfork.com/news/58005-aphex-twin-announces-computer-controlled-acoustic-instruments-pt2-ep/ And the reason for that is because it's his biggest hit. If it were not that, they'd be embedding Come to Daddy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fenton Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 some anti-drugs program on the bbc the other week was slathered in burial's discography thinking about it though if you're working in the sound department at the bb motherfucking c then it's not very weird that you know who burial, afx etc are and use them over suitable footage when you can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melancholera Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 I agree that it's not an ad. They always feature some past work (often most popular) by an artist when they're featured in the news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
