MUMBAI: Pacific Animation Partners, a joint venture between leading U.S. toymaker JAKKS Pacific, Inc. and Dentsu Entertainment USA, has aligned with Cherrytree/Interscope Records’ chart-topping performing artists, Far East Movement, to create an original theme song for the animated action adventure series, Monsuno(TM).
The Monsuno theme song, produced by Martin Kierzenbaum, Chairman of Cherrytree Records, is a high energy blend of hip-hop, pop, electro and dance that is a signature of Far East Movement’s style and sound. This partnership marks the first time the group has created a theme song for an animated television series. The Monsuno theme song opens every episode of the animated series, which airs on Thursdays at 8:30 p.m. (ET) on Nicktoons, and brings to life the powerful action-driven animation and dynamic characters.
“We are very excited for the opportunity to be working with Interscope Records and their renowned artist, Far East Movement,” said Stephen Berman, President and CEO, JAKKS Pacific, Inc. “The group’s musical style and art form, which brought them to the forefront of the music industry, is the perfect complement to evoke the larger-than-life adventures of the Monsuno animated series. We are pleased to continue our long and valued relationship with Steve Berman and Interscope with this unique partnership.”
