You know the music was probably composed in stereo originally. So it's out there somewhere, probably on DAT, waiting to be presented in all its glory.

It better be, I love this track and we need a digital version. This one has a couple tape drop outs (even if it still sounds ok) and a little bit of background hiss.

Yes, it was the best boarding music ever. So relaxing. I used to be crew for them. For 27 years

I like the Flower Duet. They played that in the TV ads and it was on the plane I took a few weeks ago.

It gives me strange pre-covid vibes, this feeling of boarding a plane in rainy weather on a calm morning at like 5am just enjoying everything. Sadly, much of this has now since been gone and many things have changed in aviation.

@KevinAndrew350 Жыл бұрын

This unlocked a memory I didn't even know I had. At a time when British Airways and the wider aviation industry was changing for better or worse, this music was so calming, contemporary and representative of an airline confident in its product and position as the world's favourite! Feels a long time ago now sadly.

Wow, this brings back so many memories, I remember listening to this music when I boarded a BA flight in my early childhood

British Airways were so great to fly on in those days during the 1990s and the 2000s. I’ll never forget the sight of British Airways 747s lined up side by side at Terminal 4 (BA terminal 1986-2007). It just doesn’t feel the same today. But it feels nice to remember those memories

this feels weirdly nostalgic despite me never having flown on british airways. i guess its just got that vibe to it. plus all plane music has sort of a floaty timeless feel, like the american airlines music they use currently

I've never flown on British Airways. I've actually only flown on 4 flights in my life (all United on a US to Dominican Republic trip). This music gives me strange nostalgic feelings though. Something about it just hits it so well. Maybe it is just the vibe it has being from around the time i was born. I was born in 2001 and so much stuff from around that time has such an aesthetic to me.

I guess at least for the strings it’s a Roland D-110 or EMU Sound module. Also probably some Korg M1 stuff which was classical for 90s music. But all in all it’s just a wild guess.

Techmoan did a video about this tape that he found in a unit that he had purchased and I think he said these were pulled in the 2010s, up to 2011 I'm pretty sure. Hope I kinda helped but I don't remember his exact video about it.

They probably continued to use this song for many years. Also odds are they also used these on their other aircraft such as the 747 and 777.
