BBC Rave Music

Does anyone know what the music is that's used just before some programmes on BBC1. It's where everyone is jumping up and down in slow motion at some form of rave. Any ideas?

Here's what I found on BBC idents on Wiki :

BBC 'Rhythm & Movement' idents were a set of on-screen channel identities designed by Lambie-Nairn. The music for all idents was written by Peter Lawlor of Water Music Productions in London.

Now I'm assuming that this is the one you are remembering ...

"Festival"
Debut: 2002

Sometimes known as Rave, and filmed on an airfield, it begins with a close up of two women dancing together with a "techno"-style version of the BBC One jingle playing in the background, somewhat resembling a rave party. Red takes on prominence in the background. This version of the jingle was sampled in a later dance music track, Forever and a Day by State One in 2003.

Hope this helps.

You tried to help... and help you did! I found a song called 'Forever and a Day' by 'State One'. That samples the music from the advert. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find the link again, but I'm sure it would be easy enough to find knowing the name now. Thanks for your help.

Oh hey you're very welcome. I'm glad I found what you were looking for

Had a problem getting onto the forums just lately, so am going over some old posts to see if anything new cropped up. Hence long gap between yours and my posts!
