Ambient Music
August 5th, 2003
A month or two ago I caught myself humming a few bars of Jerusalem on the way in to work. It took a week or so to work out that the first four notes of this piece are exactly the same as the chimes that herald announcements at KXT:
"bing-bing-bing biing"
"and did these feet"
After this, It was fairly easy to work out why I habitually whistle part of Mozart’s The Magic Flute whilst waiting for the lift at work: The security door requires a four digit code followed by an enter:
"dit-dit-dit-dit doo"
– which you may or may not recognise as the last 5 notes of the opera’s main riff:
"diddle-iddle it-dit-dit-dit, dit-dit-dit-dit doo"
Now that’s what I call Ambient music.
