made in twenty minutes in 6 parts with a guitar and a laptop microphone

20th Century Fox Fanfare

This track attempts to capture the essence of these four media personalities in a short 2 minute electro-rock epic. 

As a group, the only thing that each person has in common with the other, is that there is someone else of a similar level of relevance in the social zeitgeist with a name the same as their own. Attempts to connect them all together in an Erdős–Bacon-esque diagram have so far been unfruitful. Someone out there will be the person that is the exact same number of hops away from each of these people. This song is for you, whoever you are.

The people featured in this song are:

Tom Scott - YouTuber and Web Developer
Tom Scott - Saxophonist and Composer
Brian Cox - Physicist
Brian Cox - Actor

The musical elements of the song are as follows:

Toby Spiller - Synth & Drum Programming, Electric Guitar, Bass
Rory Sparshott - Production, Direction, Inspiration
Tom Scott - Saxophone

Bit untidy, I really wish there was a way to do this live.

Queen - Bicycle Race - Guitar Break

The piece now has a few different sections, but still required drums
