They get even more annoyed if you ask about someone else's TV themes.
An interviewer once got film composer David Arnold ( Stargate, several Bond films, Sherlock ) somewhat understandably mixed up with TV composer David Arnold ( Live and Kicking, The Big Breakfast ).
As I recall he wasn't best pleased.
Many composers go on to make film scores, I do know a few get rather annoyned if you only ask about there TV themes

Maybe I am, but sworn to secrecy!
But to add, it would be a bit ridiculous to have a whole new Crystal Maze music package composed (which there was) if it was only going to be used just once
2017? Are you aware of something we aren't?

I remember for Series 5 the theme tune seemed to get a little more dramatic, I wonder if it was a new version of it made or perhaps a little tweaking done by the production company themselves?

More possibly access to better equipment and/or it was enhanced?
All renditions of the theme I've heard prior to series 5 always sounded "flat" compared to the later one, mind you most of the O'Brien era as a whole sounds flat compared to the Tudor-Pole era and I always thought it was due to the quality of the transfers used by Challenge, now I don't think it is.
Didn't they start using a steadycam for the run between games from series 5 as well?

All the music from the original series is clean on the iOS game and therefore quite easy to rip and save.
As for the 2017 music, I'm presuming that's what we ended up hearing in 2016 for Stand Up To Cancer's special...
...which will lead into a series Channel 4 have most certainly not funded by helping the London experience purchase a brand new experience in Manchester conveniently built at the old Granada Studios whatsoever. Who'd actually think that could be the case eh?!

I think some of the earlier episodes have had some noise reduction effect applied to them to try and reduce the echo in certain areas.

Which is where I found the versions I have...
forcefield is Normaly protected very well by copyright people... it was often requested on here only to be shot down. It wasn't until the iPhone game came out that the tracks leaked out.

The copies below were not ripped from the iOS game. I obtained these from Zack Laurence indirectly. Enjoy!

I had a good chat with Zack as I'm a massive fan of Interceptor and the Crystal Maze and also loved the music and managed to track down his contact number. When I approached the Crystal Maze theme and underscore he said at the time he'd given everything to Chatsworth and no longer had anything of it - wherever you got these from (and I did get mine from the iOS game) I can't even begin to guess!
