Nope, haven't a clue! does sound very familiar though. I thank you in advance for ruining the rest of my day racking my brains!

Where did you get the mp3 from to start with?

parts of it remind me of some of the music from 'Back to the future' (the end credit music I think).
It also reminds me of the 'Toyland Tours' music at Alton Towers.

Never heard it but it sounds like "flying in the air music" or "start of something good". It seems that this is only a portion of the loop whick really puts it off when the bit of the music changes from the end to the start.

Sounds to be ship or ocean themed.

I take it back, It's not Terrahawks. I must have been to dozens of websites and played about 100 theme tunes but can't find your one.

Time to give up.

Not Sea quest thingy is it?

Hmmm. Then again, also sounds like Back to the future... almost exactly like it infact...

It's not Terrahawks though. Almost def. about that one.

What makes you think it's an old cartoon? And around what time (70's 80's etc)? Could be putting us off with "old cartoon".

Hmmm. Also what about that film... erm... "Battle beyond the stars" think it was called. Where that bloke out of the Waltons (or whatever) flies a ship with big breasts, meets some people, and they all die saving a planet. Including this bird with big breasts. And the ship with big breasts. But not him. He survives. The boring, smug, large moley on cheeked tosser.

Will send to work tomorrow if no-one gets it.

Cheers

Battle Beyond the Stars and it`s twin Star Raiders, same actors same models, same dodgey fx, both with weird plots, Johnathan Harris (Dr Zachery Smith) as a bounty hunter I think they made one cos they had too many spaceship models left over from the other, it`s realy weird to watch a film where you know all the ships exploded at the end of the other film....and here they come again

Actually I saw a film once that was really really crap. Some sci-fi rubbish with interiors of ships that looked like boiler rooms. Then they show the outside of the ships and.... it was Battlestar Gallactica!!!! Every single outside scene.....

Anyone remember a film where this bloke invents a time machine in a plane? Then uses 1982 computer FX to zoom into the future. Which is the same, but with more burnt bits. What was it called?

Damn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thought we had lost that one forever.... grief, can't even remember that tune properly... Heh, is so copied from elsewhere too.

Actually, if they had kept the few seconds at the start in the mp3 then I would probably have tracked it down.

What did you do though? Email *everybody*? Listen to every mp3 you could find?????

After wasting god knows how many hours listening to every cartoon mp3 going I simply posted a request at http://www.themez.co.uk/ on June 20th.

I forgot all about it and got an email out of the blue saying someone had posted a reply with the answer.

Wow. That person must surely be a god! Or perhaps a really sad person. Whichever.
