Hadouken! remain one of the few bands who know how to use Youtube in the right way





Hadouken! just keep on surprising me! In the best way possible. The UK based dance and house band once again show the world that if you use Youtube in a good and smart way, you can promote yourself easily. The band's "video" for the latest single Levitate is the perfect example of smart promotion on Youtube. Two months ago they released a video made out of viral clips from Youtube and they have just put their song as a background music. They named the video PEOPLE ARE AWESOME 2013, and there you go. Over 56 million views and lots of new fans. The song even made an appearance on US Billboard Hot 100 and is currently at 69. What is strange about this is that they don't have any real hits back in the UK, yet they have cracked America. Now that's the power of Youtube.

Hadouken! me iznenadjuje iz dana u dan. I to na najbolji moguci nacin. Britanski dens i haus bend je jos jednom pokazao svetu da ako koristis Youtube na pametan nacin, mozes da se lako ispromovises. Bend je pre dva meseca postavio "video" za svoj najnoviji singl Levitate. Umesto da su snimili pravi spot, video je napravljen od isecaka popularnih klipova sa Youtube-a, a njihova pesma se moze cuti u pozadini. Video je nazvan PEOPLE ARE AWESOME 2013. I bez imalo muke, eto 56 miliona pregleda i dosta novih fanova. Pesma je cak dospela na Americku Billboard Hot 100 listu gde se trenutno nalazi na 69. mestu. To se moze smatrati cudnim jer Hadouken! ne moze da se pohvali da ima hit u Velikoj Britaniji, a ipak eto ih na americkim listama. To se zove moc Youtube-a.
