what song is playing in the opening theme?

[JohnPeel3904]

@DoktorWoron The song is called "Sound of the Suburbs" and was originally sang by the punk group The Members. I don't know who is singing this cover version on the intro of the programme.

@JibrilHK47 Do you mean from 1:21 to 2:03? It's called '[Untitled]' by Polygon Window (Aphex Twin) on Surfing On Sine Waves.

Damn it, anyone knows the name of that acid track played after the intro? Tanks a lot.
