It's on a current BBC trailer for a music series. Sounds like Oasis to me, but the lyric clip is 'walls of sound moving around' and Google doesn't lead anywhere. Any idea chaps?

Sorry, no idea. But I've used Shazam before when I can't identify a piece of music.

Dial 2580 and play the music down the phone. After 20 secs or so, call ends and with any you'll receive a text with the song and artist. Doesn't always identify though, frown

Worked for me with some quite obscure songs.

If it's the one for the Electric Proms, then it's Oasis.

Another vote for Shazam.

I've had positive results from Shazam when I was 99% certain it would not be able to "name that tune"

Any tech-ie around to explain exactly how it works?

I can only imagine that it effectively compares the sample that you send it against a database.... but then I've seen it work in nightclubs and pubs where the ambient background noise is full of inane pub banter and chatter - surely that would change the sample significantly?

If so then its Bring it on down by Oasis
