Andy Gray

The Big Brother Theme (UK) is fairly well known, but it may come as a suprise that the Channel 4 production team actually asked about 50 artists / groups to submit music.
Andy is on record as saying that had he known they were up against such competition, he might not have bothered.
Andy Gray was once asked what track inspired him to produce / mix music. His answer Are Friends Electric. He went on to produce remixes of Gary Numan's music.
