Mumbai—To announce the launch of Spotify in the country, Leo Burnett India has created the announcement film for the brand. The agency’s Mumbai office will lead the business.
Spotify, established in 2006 by Swedish entrepreneurs Daniel Ek and Martin Lorentzon, has revolutionised the music industry across the globe in just over a decade.
Leo Burnett was chosen as the creative agency primarily because of its core belief in the HumanKind philosophy. HumanKind is not about advertising or brand propositions or marketing. It’s about people and purpose. This approach to creativity resonated with Spotify which has always embraced unconventional ways of marketing, and providing meaningful experiences instead of advertising.
Speaking on the launch of Spotify India campaign Rajdeepak Das MD India & Chief Creative Officer South Asia, Leo Burnett said “Personally I am myself a big user and fan of Spotify. If music is life for you then there is good news for you, welcome to a better life. We are super excited to be partnering with this legendary brand in India. Spotify is a pioneer in the music streaming space and it is going to revolutionize this experience in India. The auto recommendation is worlds best bar none. The brand always stood for artists and musicians round the world and that shows the brands commitment for music and creators. Like once someone wrote here comes the sun”!
Said Dheeraj Sinha, MD – India & Chief Strategy Officer – South Asia, Leo Burnett,, “At Leo Burnett, we particularly enjoy the challenge of building new categories and helping our clients become the leader of the category. Spotify is the global pioneer of the music streaming category. The product experience is absolutely awesome and the brand is truly cutting edge.
