Shake, rattle and
rock & roll

One day, Sony Music asked us to help launch a boy band across Europe. Metrostation had a hit single called 'Shake it'. We had to grab the attention of thousands of fans in seven separate European countries. So we built a unique Facebook application in Flash around the song's chorus.

The app would play the music and simultaneously shake their entire Facebook screen. The fans who downloaded it could choose one of eight different 'shakes' depending on their mood. Then they'd add their own message and send it on to their friends. After shaking their screen the app gave the recipient a choice. They could view the full Metrostation music video. Or click through to iTunes and buy the track. Thousands of them did just that. Great show, even better business.
