Four spots. Four distinct records. One global stage.

Watch campaign films ↗

Four records across punk, hip-hop and original music — cleared for an Olympic-sized campaign.

Music Ronin supervised music across four Google films created with 72&Sunny for the 2026 Winter Olympics. The campaign reached approximately 100 million combined views across social platforms and aired during primetime Olympic coverage.

The clearances moved on production time. “All the Way Up” required approximately three weeks to secure signatures and vocal consents; the remaining records were cleared in about one week each.
