Hello everyone. I was watching a trailer for the military show on Bravo called The Unit, when the music came on. Nothing strange there, you are asking, incidental background music.
But the orchestral music is a straight up Apple Loop!!!!!!!
I've used it myself to make a song in GarageBand!!!!!!!
Now as a songwriter and composer (amatuer), should I be apalled that they are using something so recogniseable and cheap as their theme music? Or should I feel happy and not a little smug that the songs I have created and also heard from other MacRumors users is better and wholly original. I feel like emailing the show and introducing the musical director to some real music.
I can now hold my head high amonst other songwriters and composers (amatuers) and allow the world to listen to my music because if a well-made American TV show can take an off the shelf Apple Loop as their theme music, myself and every other musician here can make money with our original songs.
