Dr WHO theme Version No.4!
For this version I wanted to do the complete opposite of No.3. So I concentrated less on the Lead Haunt, & more on the Drums & Loops! It starts with pioneered pulsating Bass sound & some ambient piano & builds up & eventually lets go. Then for the Middle 8, I let it all just happen! And it explodes!
This took me quite some time. In fact I had to shelve it for a year & come back to it. A lot of this was done in slow tempo & was then sped up due to the fast bass stabs. There's strings, a 60's Rock Organ, Lava Synth, 4 different bass sounds all crafted to create the Bass Line & 3 Lead patches to arrange the Lead Haunt & much more! I really wanted to take off with this one! But as some may know, Dance as a style of music often has this constant Back beat (or a thump) that really cheapens a track in my opinion. That's why I take a great deal of time to come up with original Beats!
I hope you like it!
This is part of a Project for fun that aims to create 20 different versions of the Dr Who theme! 16 more to go! If you want to add it to your collection:

If anyone has an Idea for a DW Version, please feel free to comment. You may not be a Musician, but fans are always passionate people. And I respect that. However, I can honestly say that I dislike the New Series & Murray Gold's DW Theme Tune. Therefor please refrain from requesting a cover of that song. I will NOT dissect beloved Delia's Original
A Big Thank you to Chris batt & Tony Lopez.
OH WOW! This is freakin AWESOME! I use to be one of the biggest Dr. Who fans around! I watched and taped every episode from William Hartnell to Sylvester McCoy. Then they quit showing em on our PBS channel :-(
They finally started back up a few years ago on our SyFy channel. Needless to say I was a happy camper :-) My favorite Dr. was Tom Baker because that's when I was first introduced to Dr. Who, but Peter Davison probably would had been my favorite otherwise. Now my favorite is David Tennant

@chrishooper68 They say that your Fave Dr is the one you are watching at the time! But Pat has always blown me away. If you look back at his stuff, he truly is an Actor's Actor & was the FIRST "Doctor". Bill was Dr Who. without him, We'd never have the rest.
I don't actually recognise the new series as DW. It's not creative with it's Music, Scripts, Sets, or Special FX. Which to me was what made the show charming. But, Each to their own!
Thanks for the Compliments tho.

@johnofett Actually, I don't do any Programing What so ever! I use Synthesizers! I have found that Digtial has a habit of sounding like all the sounds are fighting to become the loudest channel! Also, in Analog - When you are recording, it sequences not only the notes, but the Volume, Velocity, Attack, Release, Aftertouch & Sustain (Pedal) of each & every one of those notes. To do that Digitally would take me far too long! So, Every sound you here is Finger to Key constructed. A Labour of Love!
