Music Heard in Hilton Commercials: Dancing Couple

The new set of commercials for Hilton are quite innovative in their simplicity. The campaign, titled "Travel should take you places," features animated line drawings of the memories you have when traveling. The spots have names like Dancing Couple, Hammock, Sandcastle and Sunrise, the spots feature some great music. And that's what you are here for, right?
