Classic science fiction theme tunes sound even spacier slowed down

[Swede]

The other day, the internet went crazy over Justin Bieber's anthem "U Smile" slowed down 800 percent. But we slowed down the theme tunes from Doctor Who, Star Trek and other classics, and we discovered they sound just as cool.

We ran some of science fiction's most iconic theme tunes through Paulstretch, the same program that Nick Pittsinger used on Bieber's tune. And the results were pretty amazing.

1. There's one movie theme that doesn't need slowing to sound "spacey":

Forbidden Planet

3. Absolutely

I often wish I had a better sound-system on my TV for when I play this movie, but at least I have a copy of the soundtrack for headphone listening. It's also come in handy for things like "bed music" when on radio shows :)
