Original reference is the film 2001: ASO, right?
Other music used in that film (Sunrise from Also sprach Zarathustra) makes splendid Oolite theme music.
That's for when the player first installs military lasers :P

It's still used by Elite Dangerous.

Honestly, I think most people these days only know Blue Danube from the movie.

Movie? I used to dance the Blue Danube back in the good old days. It is a good old-fashioned Viennese Waltz.

Here's a contentious one... Does The Blue Danube date Oolite?
It dates Elite, IIRC my C=64 was playing it when using a docking computer.
