I need some help finding the name of a song. I have heard it in old
(1950s) tv commercials but I have been unable to find any info.
Lastnight I heard it while streaming LoveLine on 91X during the
commercial break mixed into another song. I recorded it when they
played it again. Here are two small clips of the song I am looking
for. Whats the name of the song?

Both of those short clips sound like "vamps," or introductory material
to a song, that do not include the melody of the song.  Is there
another clip available -- hopefully a little longer and from another
part of the song -- or is what you have provided pretty much all that
there is to the tune?

Those clips are taken from what sounded like a techno remix song that
included those two parts of the song. I have heard the song many times
on TV in old commercials/tv programs. Most of the shows are along the
lines of a mother in the kitchen with a new appliance. "With a touch
of a button a twelve slice toaster lowers from the bottom of the
cabinet." and I think I have heard the phrase "Home of tomorrow" or
"future house" or somthing along those lines in reffrence to the tv
program the song is in.

The drumline is not a part of the original song. It is a part of the
remixed song I got the clips from.

I'm going to release this question, because I don't have enough to go
on.  Clip no.2, though, consists of the first four notes (and harmony)
of the Jeopardy theme.

OK, not exactly the same, but I think it's a generic for most of the
late 50's/early 60's...
