Post Office Tower promo film (1967)

Can anyone identify this wonderful 60s electronic/radiophonic piece? I've heard it used in a few corporates and newsreels from the mid to late 60s when a sort of busy electronic vibe is called for. I'm wondering if it is by John Mathews, whose Electro-Twist on Southern MQ-769 was used as the theme to British Movietone News in the 60s and 70s (and in this film from about 8:46).

It's on MQ/LP 01 as 'Electro-Rhythm' by John Matthews.


Also on Bruton  BR 539 - Quirky Retro Tech archive release.

Cheers Retro. That one has been bothering me or years. And it does sound very John Baker, right down to the sounds used! Now off to see if I have this one buried on my NAS!
