I found that site as part of my wanderings, good innit? There's one on there that I did like a lot. It has slight undertones of techno rave, which come to think about it echoes the original version in some ways. I saw a prog once, one of those 100best TV ones, which had a section on the Who theme and musicians were saying how much it had inspired them. Pink Floyd and Orbital spring to mind.

Those guys are legends and pioneers.And the theme tune will be popular for a very very long time, I think. If you're interested, this is quite an interesting site - Whomix is a great site of fan remixes of the tune - some better than others, but some are superb... http://whomix.trilete.net I love this – thanks Andrew!As the owner, not only of several CDs of music from the series, a battered old cassette of BBC Sound Effects from the series, but also a mug with the “lyrics” of the theme tune bought at the Museum of Moving Image’s Dr Who exhibition in the early ’90s (dumba de dum, dumba de dum, dumba de dum, diddly dum…etc), the music of the series has always been, and is now too, something to behold.It was, certainly back in the 60s and 70s, such a distant idea to write music for, and the Radiophonic Workshop created so many wonderful soundscapes that are often hard to differentiate from the soundtrack.
