We’ve just re-recorded the music from Morecombe & Wise’s classic ‘Breakfast’ sketch, for Ant & Dec to do as part of the BBC’s Children In Need appeal.

ITV - Gameshow Marathon
15/03/2007 16:11
For the 3rd season running we’ve been commissioned by ITV to re-record the original show’s music for this series.
Many of these old shows were made by small production companies that are no longer in existence, so much of the music has been lost. We’ve gone back to video tapes of the shows in order to dictate, and then re-record it.
To date we’ve covered Blankety Blank, Blind Date, Blockbusters, Bullseye, Family Fortunes, Golden Shot, Mr & Mrs, Name That Tune, Play Your Cards Right, Sale Of The Century, Take Your Pick and The Price Is Right!
The goal was for it to be as close sounding to the original music as we could get it, and so far, no one has noticed that it isn’t the original music playing!

Jay has just finished recording the music to a new Miller Beer TV commercial.
It features a cover of Quincy Jones’ ‘Money Runner’ which has been recreated to sound like the original recording, but which follows the action of the picture better.
The film features a guy on a crazy urban rollerskating adventure!
Check out the film in our showreel section.
