When was it originally composed and who remixed it for Windows XP setup process? Was it Brian Eno?

@acela944: It only sounds like a remix because it's in such high quality.

I wonder where this sample comes from... It's also in "Monolith" by Yello (at around 0:33 seconds).

i've noticed that it sounds different compared to the one used in XP. was it rearranged when XP came out or something? either way, this is an epic track

@stanlepard: Yeah, seems they loved it. Good work on the Windows 98 shutdown sound and Microsoft Plus! XP sounds by the way.

@glosswired: Well, that's news to me but I'm glad to hear it was used again. It was a work for hire, so Microsoft owns the track.

@waterbearer95: I think Eno did the start up music for Windows 95.

@destructard: Not that I recall. But they might have used this piece again for XP. Microsoft owns it.

Hi, Stan. What a great piece of music. Brings back old memories as a child with a slow Toshiba laptop. Btw, can I get the copy of this song? I really want to put it on my iPod. I'm willing to pay if I can. Thanks!
