8 I have recently found out that the Futurama__ opening__ theme__ was inspired in
9 a very old *experimental* song by the French musicians `Pierre Henry`__ and
10 `Michel Colombier`__. The original song is called `Psyché Rock`__, was
11 created in 1967 and interpreted using bells, percussion, zithers and electronic
12 music!
