Guilty Pleasures

It's no secret that I love traveling, particularly to Europe and Australia. One would think that it's mainly for the sight seeing and the experiences. While this is partly true, I also like traveling for another reason.

I love the intro music to BBC World News.

We don't get that channel here in Happy Valley, so I'm usually starved of it until I go to the UK, or visit my dad. They tend to change the song slightly every year or so, but it's basically the same thing. Here are some videos proving my point.







Someone even made a club mix of the song, not too shabby.



Now is that a great song or what?!?!

Hello?

I like it, although it seems like a long introduction before getting to the news.

They could sell their little melody on iTunes.

I liked the third video's mix the best.

Sweet, that is a cool tune. The style is very much European--techno doesn't get much respect in the U.S.

Half the music that ever came out of the demoscene is like this. Nectarine radio used to be a good example of that, but it looks like their site's down right now.
