well, i finally managed to get up to blackmarket tonight in the wind and pissing rain and grab MRL.
so i'm bumping this 'cos it's fucking magic to feel it's mighty weight at home (even if it's just to be reminded of the density of FWD).
i grabbed acid people too

coincidence?
I just happened to be listening to Blackdown's old Skream mix recently, and then walked into the living room where Spielberg's Catch Me If You Can (2002, with Leonardo DiCaprio) was on, and imagine my surprise, dear reader, when lo and behold in the soundtrack there was the flutey theme from Midnite Request Line! Not the initial arpeggiated part, but the sparser variation - something like: a-c, a-c, g-b, a-c... and played on flutes I think!
I was quite taken aback, I can assure you.
Did he nick it?! Or does anyone else even find this interesting ?!

Is that the bit you can sing along to?
"Dubstep. Dubstep, dubstep, dubstep."

Be interesting to know if that film was on the telly over Christmas '04. I remember Skream saying in an interview that he made the track on Boxing Day.
Rumbled mate!

I noticed that too.The movie was shown on uk tv a couple of months ago.I cant recall which instrument the melody was played on,but it sounded identical.I tried to follow the end titles and noticed that some parts of the score were 'classical' pieces,so I'm not sure if the tune was composed for the movie or was an existing piece.
It does sound in context more like a typical 60s suspense-ful theme a la Lalo Schifrin or someone than classical-proper.
Ha! - "Rumbled. Rumbled, Rumbled, Rumbled." Sing along Fwd>> cru!Noel Emits said:
But seriously it is a sampladelic culture, who cares really? I like the idea of tracking him down to see if it was on the telly the night before he wrote it, though - catch me if you can, indeed!
