It may be a bit early to ask this but does anyone have the Bed used during the headline segments of BBC 2008. If its Library music is there any chance you could tell me the track title and the library?

Thanks in advance

I wouldn't mind knowing what the track is called as well - if anyone knows? Smile

Just had a look around the BBC Sport contact page and saw that someone else had already enquired about it. It's called 'The Bund' by 'The Shanghai Restoration Project'.

Here's the link to the instrumental version on iTunes. Very Happy

In a related matter, do you think the BBC's Olympic Theme Tune will be released commercially?

The composer, Damon Albarn, is releasing the album for his opera 'Monkey: Journey to the West' on Monday. I doubt it will be on there, but there will be similar Chinese tracks. Click here

Yeah, that album is based on the opera, so I think the chances of it appearing on there are quite slim.

And while we're at it, if anyone can identify the music used at the beginning of each edition of the 'Games Today' when Michael Johnson says, "previously in the Olympic Games" and the electro track used in the 'Team GB News' section that was also used during the Wimbledon coverage, that'd be awesome.

Incidentally, the BBC also seem to be using 'Babylon of the Occident' on the same previously mentioned album.

The piece used at the very beginning of 'Games Today' with Michael Johnson is Rob Dougan - Chateau
