Thes One, one half of the world-renowned L.A. Hip-Hop duo People Under The Stairs, has gained a reputation as a prolific producer as well as one of the most studied and versed vinyl collectors in the country. Thes has uncovered many amazing LPs in his days of digging, but the collection of original commercial jingles that Herb Pilhofer wrote and released independently, titled Music That Works, would become the pallet that Thes would draw open to create his first solo, all instrumental work: Lifestyle Marketing. Acting as producer, arranger, mixing/mastering engineer, and A&R, this release is a true tour de force for Thes One.
The German born Herb Pilhofer is an accomplished pianist/composer with a list of accomplishments a mile long. Spending most of his life in the Minneapolis, MN area, Mr. Pilhofer has fronted jazz ensembles, scored movies, won a Grammy, and helped start and run the first digital recording studio in the country called Studio 80 (where a young Prince made his first demos). But his work in creating jingles for local and national companies using electronic instruments (Moogs and other synthesizers) was not only revolutionary, but also musically exciting with rich emotional depth. This is what captured Thes’s attention and led him to re-create these commercials in an updated mode and also reach out to Mr. Pilhofer to attain his blessings and gain from his experience.
With Mr. Pilhofer’s blessing, Thes has re-worked commercials culled from the two volumes of Music That Works (released on Mr. Pilhofer’s Studio 80 label) to create Lifestyle Marketing. While on the surface this album would appear to be a simple remix record, what Thes has done is much more. Each track attempts to amplify the human emotion that Mr. Pilhofer placed in his compositions and at the same time expose how emotion is used to sell products in our consumer based society. Lifestyle Marketing will appeal to anyone with an interest in American music and popular culture as much as it will to die-hard fans of Thes One and his music.
