How I Made The TOP GEAR Theme

22 years ago Christian Henson smashed together three drum loops, some orchestral stabs, a synth bass, and a guitar through a Seek Wah for a poky little motoring show on BBC2. The files are long lost on frozen spinning drives so Henson and the Crow Hill Team fastidiously sifted through sample collections re-creating a piece of theme music that accompanied what became the most distributed factual entertainment program of all time. This is how Christian made the #topgear theme. If you fancy going under the hood of this iconic track we have prepared various versions of the music, the samples and DAW files so you can get your head around how this odd concoction of instruments became the sound of motoring for 22 years.
