Station Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 Nice. This type of stuff reminds me of Boards Of Canada, who use the old synths and samples from these information broadcasts (Film Board Of Canada). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reallyloud Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 I stumbled across that 625 site a while back. The research and detailing is slightly beyond enthusiasm but I have to say the fact that they have recreated those old idents is good thing. I wonder why the use of wind instruments are so common in the 60's and 70's. Victor Lewis Smith did a neat program a few years back about TV idents. Might try and search for that.

Conrad D. Conelrad Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 TV Offal was great. He also made Ads Infinitum, with a lot of fantastic 70s footage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
