The Vista Sound

J-Walk has an excellent, excellent post about the recording of the musical intro/closing for Windows Vista. I listened to the whole video (it's too dark to watch it) and found it very enjoyable. The most interesting part is near the end where the main guy says "Now we have to listen to over 4 hours of source material and pick out what's excellent then cut that down to two to six seconds." Wow! Lot of work just for a sound.
