Could you give me more infos on this mysterious track?
« on: April 03, 2025, 05:36:22 PM »
Hello everyone, I hope you're having a nice day. :)

I'm currently looking to identify a bunch of music from 80s, that could come from library music (I'm a regular user of WatZatSong for that objective).

One of the music that has been identified is this music called "Dramatic Mountain Tension" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZcSfarWnilQ).

The problem is that I can't find any information or presence regarding this track... :(
All the infos I find points to inexistant labels (SINETONE AMR, Smith & Co.).

I have proof that this music was existant before 1988; it can't have been released in 2016. In order to continue my searching, I have to find more informations!

I call to all the library music nerds that you are for help! :D

Listening to this tune, could you give me some infos, even thins?

Thank you very much in advance!

These titles look to be old vintage Chappell recordings which are readily available but I suspect the one you are after has been retitled.  Let me check my catalogue for Roger Roger tracks that are the same length.

I went through the LPC ‘yellow’ series and pulled out any Roger Roger composed track cataforised as Dramatic that was around 1.40 but didn’t find it.  Chappell is a big label but I will keep digging.

Could also be on an old major or Southern LP.  Roger Roger had drama tracks on both.

Thank you very much for your replies!

You can't imagine how grateful I am to even have a lead. :D

I have bought the whole "Space Adventures" album on Qobuz to have the track in lossless quality, but "Dramatic Mountain Tension", despite being downloadable as FLAC, is not even lossless (it's the only track of the album to have this oddness)...

I searched track titles in Discogs with Roger Roger to find original LP. Some appear on other Chappell series- the Chappell Mood Music series for example.  Other a Chappell track will appear on more than one series, so on the LPC yellow run and the CMM run during example.  For info the LPC ones are made up of old 10” records from the 1960’s.

There is a Roger Roger track called Dramatic Mounting Tension on Major Records LP no. 59, and the duration matches - I think someone transcribed the title wrongly!

According to my records the track Dramatic Mounting Tension first appeared on a Major Records 78rpm number 5254. I tracked it down on the Internet Archive last year and cleaned it up. A copy in FLAC if you are interested is here ==> h***s://pixeldrain.com/u/YCGTfCfh

Although from a 78rpm original I feel it's better than the lossy version of Major LP number 59 that I have.

Okay, mystery solved I guess! :D

Thank you very much for your help, I still have many cues to identify but I am very grateful to you all! :)

Would anyone share me a lossless version of Major Records LP no. 59 to conclude this for good ?
