The long awaited new theme song for the Radio Happy Hour was unveiled on this week’s show.

When lead singer of edibleRed Collette McLafferty joined the show as a co-host, Vinny Bond suggested she record a new theme song for the show.  Dr. Blogstein thought that was a great idea and a perfect way to welcome in the new era of the Radio Happy Hour with Collette and The Burl, the other “newish kid on the block.”

The original Dr. Blogstein theme song was recorded by a Beatles tribute band Mostly Moptop. It had been in use since July 17, 2007.

The new theme song, recorded by Collette McLafferty, lead singer of edibleRed and featuring rapper Hassahn Phenomenon has a more up to date feel and more closely captures the vibe on the #1 most downloaded comedy.  The song was producer by Loor Ambient.

BEHIND THE MUSIC
The story behind the new Radio Happy Hour theme song, as told by Collette McLafferty:

The new Dr. Blogstein theme song started as a email conversation between me and Hassahn Phenomenon… I initially wrote a hook and composed a standard rock and roll theme song from my Garageband… it was super rough! Hasahn wrote a rap over it and emailed back to me about 6 weeks later… I also combed through a bunch of mp3’s from the Dr. Blogstein show so I could pick out some key samples of Doc’s voice ( I especially wanted to get one of him yelling at Vinny, since that is a staple of the show:)   As I was going through the episodes, I stumbled upon The Mouthinator.  I wasn’t initially planning to use him, but Mouthinator is to Dr. Blogstein what Cartman is to Southpark..Rolling Stone once said that Cartman’s voice is worth the price of basic cable.   Mouthinator’s voice is worth the price of high speed internet!

During that time, I started working with a kick ass electronic producer by the name of Loor Ambient… I liked the track I came up with, but since it consisted of Garageband samples that anyone could use, I thought it would be cool to get him on the track so he could spice it up with something original. Loor took it in a totally new direction and gave it more of a urban, futuristic feel. We produced it together, but he came up with the overall sound.

Interesting side note… just as we were about to bounce the track…we noticed that Hassahn said “6′oclock is the hour”… with specifying the time zone! So we had to lose that and I changed it to “9 PM eastern is the Hour”…. I’m glad we caught that!
