Remember Lee Mansfield's Unbound B theme? That used the second half of the full bassline, but not the first. Interesting notion, but I didn't like it, maybe because it sounds too final to begin with.

I think I always listen to every new theme thinking "how would this work on TV?", and think of the visuals. I found David Arnold's theme very visual in that way, and that's my favourite after the 1970 version.

Well, to be honest, what I've done so far does incorporate the full-length bassline intro. For what it's worth, my brother is in your camp. :)

Yes, that sounds like a good idea. I always did like the shorter opening for the main titles anyway, from 1970 up until the new series brought the full theme back. It gets on with it! Then you're straight into the action.

Many thanks. I'm excited about it, but I'm finding it difficult to move past the point I've gotten to. I may do what Eaglestriker did with "Dark Fairytale" and release a shorter, opening version, then take the time to refine it into a full theme with more time.

Delighted to read that you're working on a new theme Danny. There are practically no actively original takes on the theme out there, mainly remixes, so very much looking forward to it.

Also, bear in mind, I currently own a 2007 15" MacBook Pro. After having it for almost four years, I already know that I want something smaller (and lighter).

Luckily, a close work colleague is the one who has the 11" Air, so as long as he keeps bringing it with him to work, I may be able to continue to play with it. But the fact of the matter is that I already have an iPad, and there's no reason to have overlap between devices. If I'm going to have a laptop, why not make it a laptop? If I need 11" portability, I'll have the iPad. But if I need a computer, the 13" will be able to do more. If that makes sense…

I'd go for the 13" model anyday... I've never been a fan of the Air for many reasons - screensize and HDD-size being the primary reasons.

Are you sure even a 13" can really handle what you do with it?

Hi Danny,

My name is Matthew Haines, of YouTube Legal Support. I was notified of this theft of music from the Whomix website, and I thought that I would personally announce that DRWHOremixer's videos have been removed and their account has been terminated
and permanently blocked from using YouTube.

Kind Regards.

Youtube hasn't taken the channel down. DRWHOremixer has just hidden it.

Excellent! I commented on one of 'his' videos that he had stolen from WhoMix and posted as his own works - the comment got removed and I was banned from commenting on any of his vids :/

Thanks for your support. Based on the information he included on his YouTube profile (which appears to have now been removed), he is a 22-year-old living in Australia. Don't know how accurate that may have been.

I'd be very happy to end this amicably and let the matter drop, and I told him so in my first email. But now it's a matter of principle. I'm not going to sit by and watch him rack up views and "likes" for themes he did not make, but claims that he has.

It gets worse now, as he's throwing up notices saying "I don't claim copyright or ownership." So he's trying to address the legality aspect of it without addressing simply being a jerk.

Thanks for leading on this, Danny. I think "lacking in maturity" probably sums up the situation. I'd guess that DRWHORemixer is probably a fairly young kid, realizes he's screwed up, but isn't sure how to extricate himself. I hope he realizes that a mea culpa isn't that difficult, and that his theme obsession could be much more productively directed.

Or maybe he's just a jerk. I hope he proves otherwise.

Very... Epic (literally). I do actually prefer the Classic Mix, but the broadcast version does create a feeling of anticipation to hear what's coming next (which is how the Doctor Who theme should be in my opinion).

Excellent work, sir!
