Music question (SOLVED)

Hello

I am a huge fan on Stephen Fry and I was deeply moved by this documentry.

I noticed a lot of different music. Mostly used are themes from "the Hours". But there is a "house/techno" (whatever it is) part, when he says the quote in the beginning "you don't need to be gay or jewish to do well here, just manic" (quoting a Hollywood-porducer). The music ends as Stepen goes to see Robbie Williams. That Techno, House whatever piece is often used in series too, but I couldn't find it so far.

Thanks!

Hi Maria,

I think the song you're looking for is by a band called The Cinematic Orchestra and the song is called "Man with the Movie Camera" from the album Every Day. About 45 min in, the also play "Burn out" from the same album.

Shouldn't be too hard find I hope, enjoy!

Hi wlagerwey

I know you wrote this years ago lol. Thanks for the reply.

The music you've pointed out played while Stephen goes to see Carrie Fisher...

I meant a real Trance/Techno track. I just heard a band cover it on Sunday and therefore tried to find it back... I thought it might be Faithless but it's not it seems... I will go on searching and report if I can find it. It's when the beaches of LA (I think) are shown... Before the Robbie Williams segment. In the second part.

EDIT: I fount it: it IS Faithless! INSOMNIA Monster Mix.

But Iistened to "Man with a Movie Camera" and it's really cool, so thx anyway!
