A3N 1002 Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 Pretty interesting, as I was checking out 615 Music's website they have posted a little bit of MCTYW theme modified (they call it "Arrangements"). Not sure if I like it, it sounds a little different. Let's see where it goes. http://www.615music.com/core/news_music_demos.cfm Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/2122-wpvi-move-closer-to-your-world-arrangements/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElliotJones 52 Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 Sounds like the "Coming up at 5..." music as well as several other promo pieces. They're okay, in my opinion.

Ntropolis 596 Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 Yeah, not too bad... they would definitely would work well as promo themes. The original theme has gotta stay for the open.

Sam Horn 78 Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 Mr. Epino is right, 6 uses this stuff in most of their promos. Â I really like it. Especially when compared to the other-used MCTYW arrangement -- aptly called "Move Closer To Your World-esque Theme" -- 615's offering is a nice refreshment of the original.

Â I'd take the Schwarz theme over the new 615 cover, but probably only because it brings back memories of the early 90s in Pittsburgh.

Â The 615 stuff is about 3-4 years old and I guess they decided to syndicate the package. I actually like it and wouldn't mind if they used it for opens/closes.

Â Unfortunately, the rest of the Philadelphia DMA would most certainly mind. Â Seriously, is their any other piece of news music that can make an entire city become news music nerds?

CircleSeven 1955 Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 I don't hate it but I think its decent. It ain't nothing but an orchestration of the Action News Theme with a 615 feel to it. It's very similar to several 615 timeless pieces. Luckily 6ABC is only using these themes for promos. Otherwise, this would never be appropriate for the newscast period.

williamsvoice 0 Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 Agreed on the fact it's best used for promos on Channel 6. I like the middle cut in the sampler which is a better take on the short lived 1997 orchestral theme's bumper.

devswartz 2 Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 Cut three in the sampler is actually used in-show...as the Breaking News cut. The cut is usually faded out right before the string section comes in, which makes it sound even more retro. PVI added some sound effects to the cut to add urgency, and now it fits the show dynamic like a glove.
