Australian News Themes Collection

  • Some songs we hear alot, for example add jingles, ring tones or background music from a film or television program. However never really pay much attention to the fact that you know it or think about the fact that someone had to sit down for hours to compose it. Here is a collection of multiple news themes from all 5 free to air channels in Australia:Ten, SBS, ABC, seven and Nine. Most of them you should know from either past or prescent but I bet you had never taken the time listen to them as you would with music on the radio or MP3 player.
    I hope you enjoy or atleast feel a bit nostalgic. :D

    There really isn't much wrong with the 2005 ABC theme, it just had the misfortune to follow one of the best themes. It's a perfectly good uplifting and classical-style news theme.
    Have a word with yourselves.

    The 1985 ABC News theme and intro sequence blew my mind when it first aired...it was epic, there was nothing like it at the time.

      @roshanjay7 3 месяца назад +2

      6:30 That has to be one of the most news-like themes ever, it begins with alerting people we have important news for you, then it moves onto the suspense of what’s happened today, with a hint of interesting news tidbits, & then it finishes off with that’s all for now but we’ll be back with more tomorrow.

    ABC News theme 1985-2005= ORGASMIC

  • @autophyte

    The Channel 7 theme has elements of 'Superman and 'Star Wars'. But then, it makes sense as John Williams composed them all.

    I hope free to broadcast TV channels that provide very *localised* content always remain relevant & appreciated by the viewing public, including the all important news services with their *reassuring dependability,* which I think provides for a degree of *social cohesion.* Also, I think the tendency of some people to not watch the news because they’re just sick of all the misery out there that no one seems to be fixing is a *serious concern* for society, because you need people to *give a damn* to fix it.

    As a kid, I watched Seven News exclusively (It used to be called Southern Cross Tasmania until 2018 where I live) and I hold quite the soft spot for the 2002 theme. It was more exciting and intense as it built up and added a slight drama to the news reports you were about to watch, something thats been lost in the newer news themes

    Channel 10 by far the best. They consistently put a lot of effort in having an epic, classy and well produced theme.
    Ten Eyewitness News theme in 2015 is one of the greatest themes to ever be on Australian television.

    I find the 1985 - 2005 ABC theme very catchy. is there anywhere I can download that theme. apart from that I like the 9 news theme

    I'm trying to find the Radio Australia sports theme from the '80s. I used to hear it on the shortwave. It had fanfare at the beginning like at the racetrack then kind of a chugging sound. I heard it during America's Cup in '87 in Freemante.
