This is one of my favorite sub-genres of mood music: 1950s uptempo orchestral music with pizzacato strings, xylophones, and dizzying melodic runs, suggesting frantic shoppers, the bustling metropolis, well-dressed travelers and shiny new appliances. I will post what I consider to be definitive examples in this thread. Happy listening! Henri Rene - "Roller Coaster" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=80w57V8bZSk
