March 19, 2006 at 10:16PM Bill Bailey’s remix of the BBC News theme’s a top tune!

Ok, this is old news to many, but I got to see his Part Troll set yesterday on the telly.

Now, for a news program, BBC News has a pretty good theme tune. Compared to the usual hackneyed themes that most news programs have, it’s got a bit of kick and originality to it. It’s essentially orchestral hard house. How many serious broadcasters out there can say they have dance music leading into their news bulletins?

Which is why I probably shouldn’t be all that surprised when I heard his apocalypic rave remix of the theme. Here’s a clip of it from his site.

Argh! I’d love to get my hands on a proper clean copy of it.

YES! Oh, sorry for shouting... was just browsing various blogs when I came across yours through a never-ending series of random link-clicking. Absolutely agree with this. Shepherds Pie! Toast! Lard! etc.

Anyway... take it easy, Dave, from Dublin.

lol, same here, would love a proper copy of it. Actually ended up here looking for just that. Thinking of somehow getting it off the dvd audio track. It would make an amazing rave tune THIS IS THE BBC! DO NOT LISTEN TO THE OTHERS! THEY ARE FALSE PROPHETS!

You want to hear the closest thing to Bill Bailey’s Apocalyptic Rave...listen to “I Choose Noise” by Hybrid on their latest album, it almost sounds like the ident music!
