Please can someone identify this piece of instrumental music? I have a 30-second sample of it as an MP3 file, downloadable from here : http://www.samholloway.co.uk/anyideas.mp3 I have heard it used (here in the UK) on TV trailers, as incidental/background music on TV and radio shows, and so on. I believe it may have been a theme tune to an old TV or radio show (or a segment within an old TV or radio show). I have tried the UK music identification service Shazam, but with no success. I own many CDs of similar music but have never been able to source this track. The MP3 excerpt I have was captured from a TV programme several years ago which used the theme as background music to a feature. (I wrote to the producers of the programme but they were unable to help with my request.) I am looking for the artist and title of the track with some way of verifying your answer. Many thanks! Sam |

Hi Sam, Having listened to the track, it's very familiar to me (in New Zealand) when the guitar starts to come in toward the end it seems to diverge from what I'd expect. It's possible that it's production music based on a familiar or well known tune rather than the actual tune itself (this is pretty common). TV producers are required to have quite strict details on the music used in programmes for copyright purposes. This is normally in the form of a cue sheet, listing track, artist and duration of any music that's used in an item. So if you hear it again, the producers may be able to help you if you get onto the quick enough, but it will largely depend on how helpful they are feeling I imagine. |
