@moshabee Hi, can you enable embedding PLEASE!! and can you take off unlisted also. I need part of this video (background music) for a PPT presentation and it says embedding disabled... thanks!
I was working on the Sydney Olympics and at our media accommodation village we were able to watch BBC World, while in the Broadcast Centre we could watch BBC's London bulletins. David Lowe's theme and the BBC's usage of the theme for openers, fillers and "top of clock" was excellent.
oh, they play that awesome sound, when you can see, what´s the time and the temperature, in the cities of the world - for example: moscow 8:00 -12 degree snow, bangkok 17:00 32 degree rainy, sydney 21:00 28 degree sunny, bombay 15:00 34 degree sunny
BBC has one of the best menu sounds, I´ve ever heared!!!!
-
I´am searching for the sound/music, which is played, when they show, what´s the weather like in the big cities of the world - moscow, bangkok, berlin, london, sydney...
It may sound 'epic' once or twice, but if you hear it every day like I did back in 99, then it seriously starts to get annoying, though I didn't particularly think it was great back then and the haze of nostalgia hasn't skewed my view since.
i the the music for "Special Events", hey, can you make a video from the latest BBC world news countdown with the music from Special events.. i think thats fit.
I agree. I'm not sure about anyone else but I prefer these 1999 mixes to the current themes, which sound too 'beefed' up. The '99 News 24 countdown is amazing - the current one doesn't have the same gravitas IMO.
first: The Britains knows what is the best music for a news chanel like BBC! Here in South Germany, we've only stupid old music. I love all the music of the BBC since the late '90s. I have lots of remixes on my iPod and listen to them over the hole day. On my last party I used one of them, and one guy asked me where he can get the music. When I told him that this was a news intro of the BBC, he looked very suprised!
You'll probably find it's because the BBC only recruit people who are up to a world class high quality standard. Seeing as we set the standard for broadcasting an all.
Mine's different when I listened to all of them. The music makes me feel like an MMA fighter entering the ring or a news reporter whose willing to take the risk of interviewing the most important person live on TV.
That would be the atmosphere that makes you (and me) feel like that. I reckon it's because of the big drums, the long, beautiful chords of the strings and the steady beat with the bass drum and the plucked cellos.
This is some of the greatest music ever composed, and hands down the best news theme ever. No American news theme music is even in the same universe. Sometimes I watch the BBC News just to hear the incredible music. This composer is a genius.
I agree. But why does everything have to become an argument over US vs. UK. WHO THE FUCK CARES ABOUT THEME MUSIC at the end of the day? its the news that counts friend. I hope you don't just watch BBC news for the music. Do you actually watch any news or just the opening? You've probably never watched CNN because it doesn't have ANY theme music lol. But its world class news.
i was really fortunate to have seen this bloke speaking at a seminar... really nice chap, quite unphased by the wide esteem this is held with [also he gave us the secrets of the swooshing sounds on earliest versions!].
