Denham's Dentifrice
I always thought Ray had predicted rap and techno in F451, the dumbing down of music, and the in-your-face repetition. I always imagined the Denham's Dentifrice commercial to be some kind of over-the-top techno song, and when I stumbled across the youtube dj known as Pogo a few months back, one of his songs jumped out at me, and I was like YES! THAT is exactly how I always pictured the Denham's Dentifrice commercial! Here's the link:
