Doctor Who Peter Howell theme running at 22050Hz

This a just a video showing a slowed (22050Hz from 44100Hz) version of Peter Howell's excellent composition of the Doctor Who theme used from 1980 until 1985, I've also added clean intro's & closings of Peter Davison, Tom Baker & Colin Baker. I used Audacity 1.3 Beta to slow the music. The theme, although 30 years old, still sounds fantastic today!
Enjoy!

I DO NOT OWN DOCTOR WHO, IT IS PROPERTY OF THE BBC. THE DOCTOR WHO THEME WAS COMPOSED BY RON GRAINER & WAS ARRANGED BY PETER HOWELL.

Sorry, but you've got your understanding a bit mixed up. The 44100Hz is the frequency quality, and isn't the speed of the tune. If you run the actual Howell theme at 22050Hz then it just sounds a bit lower quality - not slowed down at all. What you've done is essentially lower the speed of the track by 50%, with no actual change in freqency. Believe me, I studied this sort of thing for what seemed like an age in A-level Physics classes last year.

@DarthJedi2005remixes I was just messing around in Audacity when I found how to do this, just thought I should add that say that that's what I did. I didn't know at the time what the difference in speed and frequency was. If you like I could make a video showing how I did it.

@Randomaited It's not exactly the quality of the frequency, it's how many samples are recorded in a second. Do if you set the playback to 22050 samples per second it plays it back at half the speed and the pitch is lowered, if you play it back at 96,000Hz it sounds like the sodding chipmunks. That'll learn ya. BA music tech!

@Randomaited No need to do that, I've had to do plenty of similar things on my numerous remixes over the years, and I know Audacity pretty much inside out by now.
