Ben&Ben to release new single “COMETS” this Friday!

Ben&Ben is slated to release “COMETS,” their first official single of 2024.

Written by Paolo and Miguel Benjamin, the song tackles the fleeting nature of a love lost.

“COMETS” also marks the first time that Ben&Ben co-produced a song with acclaimed producer Petra Sihombing, whose work the band has gotten to know and love in such a short span of time. 

“He flew in to help us bring the song to the next level, with his own additions in both the arrangement and post production of the track,” shares the nine-piece collective. “The band probably had about 90% of the song down, but it was Petra's very weighty 10% that really helped make the song what it is now.”

Sihombing is an Indonesian singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist. He is also known for his work as a music producer, working with many international musicians hailing from Japan, Singapore, Malaysia, and the Philippines.

“I’ve always wanted to make a movie for them.” John Krasinski turns to family for inspiration for his whimsical adventure comedy movie “IF”

After directing, writing, and co-starring with his wife Emily Blunt in global box-office hits A Quiet Place and A Quiet Place Part II, John Krasinski does a complete 180 turn with IF, a whimsical adventure for the whole family to enjoy. The inspiration— his very own family.  “I’ve always wanted to make a movie for them,” he explains.

Krasinski wanted to create something he and Blunt can enjoy with their daughters. “Emily says that the Quiet Place movies are PG-40 for them, so they won’t see those for a long time. During the early days of the pandemic, I got to spend a lot of time around my then-8-year-old and 6-year-old daughters and see the power of their imaginations. But as the pandemic wore on, I started seeing their lights dwindle. They had been so full of energy and excitement, but they were becoming more cautious about everything.”

The Hidden Key to Customer Engagement and Brand Visibility

In today's highly competitive landscape of sales and business ventures, the mere possession of a great product or service is no longer enough. To truly stand out amidst fierce competition, businesses need more than just quality offerings—they need a distinct advantage to set them apart. This entails the adoption of a reliable method to leave an indelible impression on clients, something that makes your brand entirely unique and unforgettable.

In the ever-evolving landscape of marketing strategies, corporate giveaways stand out as a secret weapon for companies aiming to create direct connections with their target audience while enhancing brand visibility. These tokens of appreciation go beyond traditional advertising methods by directly providing recipients with a physical reminder of the brand's presence and values. Whether it's a branded pen, a stylish tote bag, or a custom-designed tech accessory, corporate giveaways serve as constant reminders of the company's offerings in the daily lives of consumers.
