Where Is It Going? Live opening idea...

Post by Badger »

Listening to the opening bleeps of Where Is It Going? for the first time my mind leapt straight away to the Close Encounters Of The Third Kind melody. The 5 tones d e c C G.

How about recreating them with the same bleep sound from the beginning of WIIG? as an cool/nerdy intro to the track? The Close Encounters Melody then making a change into the opening of WIIG?

A longer extended bleep intro before the track starts proper would be cool too and if the Close Encounters thing worked I think that would go down a storm.

Well the Boiler Room DJ set showed a nice longer repeating WIIG? bleep intro. Great stuff.

Nice idea.

I really want them to open with 'One Big Moment' though. Just ease us into the groove with some very old school sounding Orbital.

I wasn't suggesting starting with Where Is It Going>? (I expect that to be the set ender or thereabouts). I'm pretty sure One Big Moment will open the set.
