WildHitz launches in the UK
By Chris Cooke | Published on Friday 7 November 2014
A Dutch online TV-style music service called WildHitz has arrived in the UK offering all sorts of music video style goodness and thrills.
I did check it out but got distracted by that funky Olly Murs track which led to some investigative journalism about when and why Travis McCoy became Travie McCoy, and then I forgot to work out what else WildHitz offers other than Murs-intitiated mysteries. So you’ll have to go to WildHitz.co.uk and work it out for yourself.
But I do have a quote. Oh yes, a quote. And here it is. WildHitz CEO Hans Perukel says: “We are looking into all opportunities to develop our relationships with labels and artists in the UK who will want to utilise our unique viewer experience. We see the UK as a logical step, the country of very popular WildHitz artists, Calvin Harris, Jessie J, Sam Smith, Lily Allen”. Very wild indeed. But back to the hits. And apparently Travis’s close friends had always called him Travie.
