This question is going around on the Yankee Racers board.
What is the eighties number that plays in Bill Murray's
helmet when he shows off that their helmets play music?

It's in the first few seconds. Sounds like an electro-rap song, maybe Kurtis Blow
industrmental or a Furious Five song.
The rest of the trailer's soundtrack has been un-covered =)

Question comes from:

i'm stumped but my guess would be a Mark Mothersbaugh instrumental.

nah, doesn't sound like Mothersbaugh.
the opening refrain is familar. I'm pretty confident
it's 80s hip-hop.

No idea if it's not Mothersbaught, but I'm willing to bet it'll be

(a) quirky
(b) frequently livejournaled in the coming weeks
(c) the new echo and the bunnymen style resurgence
(d) owned on vinyl by every hipster in driving distance of a movie theater.

Seriously, it sounds like incidental music created for the film.

yeah it probably is. just sounds familar for some reason.
sorry for getting impatient.
