Global clothing company H&M has apologised for using a track by Aussie artist Harvey Sutherland in a recent advertising campaign without his approval.
It comes after the Melbourne producer called out H&M on social media on Tuesday after the company claimed the song used in the campaign, Bamboo, had no name and was "specifically produced for us to use".

"We apologise and have now removed content featuring the music from all of our social media accounts," H&M Communications Manager AU & NZ, Liz Cave, said in a statement given to The Music today.
"We are also in direct contact with the artist."
The controversy comes just weeks after H&M were slammed for an advertisement widely deemed racist, which portrayed a young African-American child wearing a hoodie with the caption, "Coolest Monkey in the Jungle".
