BBC News is what style of news music?

Hi

I'm looking for an accurate description of the style of music that is the BBC News theme composed by David Lowe. For example, styles would be: orchestral, rock, jazz, electronica, etc. My thinking is that Lowe's music has its genesis in the late 1990's post-rave global-influenced electronic dance music, and is therefore 'electronica' in style.

To me it sounds more like a mix of Breakbeat or Techno sort of music, but 'Electronica' would definitely cover the bases.

I think the official definition is "some sort of apocalyptic rave"

Haha brilliant!

In an interview, David Lowe described the dotted-rhythm beat as 'world' if that's any use.
